Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tundrata]

This is just radiating chillness and wintery Christmas spirit. :) Really cool.

TeraVex responds:

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the listen!

[RistikMusic - CYBERDEVIL GROUNDS]

This turned out awesome. :) Cyberpunk and hell all intertwined, glitchy industrial greatness with subtle but super suitable sfx inclusions. Thanks again for this!

[The Airship Arrives - Among Us]

Alien and awesome! And really sounds like a prelude of things to come too... nice glimpse.

[Hug Me To The Stars!]

Impressed with how much sound such a slim waveform can really bring out... when everyone's going for as much loudness as possible it's refreshing too with an approach that really lets all frequencies be heard; play to their fullest; loudness be more so up to the listener than the maker of the mix.

Name really goes well with this too... amazing journey, soft and pompous at the same time, the main instrumental layers almost like the hug; the percussion a hearbeat of nearness.

Awesome work! :)

[Philly Nice - Friday Night Funkin' OST]

Another crazy clean one. :) Nice.

[Newgrounds Rumble Theme]

An epic tune too! Doesn't sound like what I'd expect 'rumble' to sound like, not as dark or thunderous as such, but definitely epic! Good kind of energy; build; sense of adventure. So clean a mix too. Awesome work.

[Pico - Friday Night Funkin' OST]

That was awesome. :) More a new take on the classic than just a retake too, so fresh, so new, so clean, so few! Can master music like you do!!! Super catchy.

[Slow Motion]

Love the instrumental, and the lyrics, and the overall tone of it, but feels like the vocal processing doesn't really match; sometimes gets lost to the music? Seems like a somewhat grungy/modern/heavily processed style that contrasts maybe a bit much with the upbeat/airy instrumental. Imagining that a bit brighter, clearer, more in the front, without as heavy effects or autotune, and it'd maybe have that nostalgic link it seems it might be intended to have? No idea how to best emulate the vocal style of old but that's the one bit that feels a bit off to me here.

Going by the 'all in one vocal processor' question I hope maybe you're thinking the same; this isn't exactly the vocal style you were going for, in which case above suggestions may seem misplaced. :P I do not know of any miracle one click things of such sort unfortunately! Would be nice though.

ADR3-N responds:

You know, I actually laid down the vocals while my roommates were having a party in the next room over, and a loud phone call was in the kitchen LOL. So I'm about three inches from the mic with the input turned all the way down. And to top that off I was really sick. I was going for a more industrial vibe and then realized at the end I'd written a K-Mart drum track hahaha. So I guess it's a fusion of 80's pop, 2000's Imma Be vibes, and modern pop.

The closest I've found to a one click is Butch Vig Vocals from waves. I found myself falling in love with distortion on literally everything, so that's primarily what I use it for. Then I use ERA-R and ERA-N for removing reverb and noise. They also have a delay remover I thought about putting on. But too much of them and you get a hollow tube sound that sucks the life out of your vocals. It's a game of experimenting

[Piché - Here We Go [Full Album]]

Soo crisp production quality on this! Solid beats, impeccable flow for the most part; smooth; ambient vibes all the way... feels like one of those albums you can easily keep looping. Hella catchy; quality mixing! And a full album just like that... impressive.
