Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Story So Far (Gronmon/S3C)]

This was pretty dope! Mind if I record something on this real quick? Would GronmonSE mind (hey is that another Swede I see)? I love the vibe.

-cd-

S3C responds:

Go for it! No, he won't mind. Haven't spoken to him in about a decade though. GronmonSE is from Nicaragua.

[Newgrounds Rocks!]

Quite unexpected shifts in this one. XD Thought I might try writing to it but hmm, the way it shifts a bit in there... love the energy though.

-cd-

S3C responds:

lyrics to this song is like trying to mix chocolate and mint with water. It's been done before, and it's not the worst thing ever...but it will just lead to existential dread, instead of providing revitalizing refreshment. Could the chocolate been used to woe a Valentine's crush? Could the mint have served as a sour stomach soother or mask halitosis? Could the H2O quench the thirst of 5000 starving Africans? We will never know, because some perverted, bored, privileged @sshole decided to make chocolate mint water

[The Grand Arirang - Jessie Yun]

Wow. Does feel like the choir's a bit distant, but my untrained musical ear wouldn't have picked up on any lost potential there if the comments below didn't mention it. Maybe different if it was in a language I understand. This was powerful!!! Really cool. Ten hours seems like a long time but assumably short for something like this.

Also inspiring to listen in on some orchestral music with a real message to it. Most of that which you stumble upon seems to made for general use.

JessieYun responds:

Hey Cyberdevil, thank you very much for the comment! Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, there's a lot of flaws there actually, since this was only made in 10 hours (normally it takes about 2-3 days to finish for me). Glad you feel inspiring as well!

[Dedicated To The Homies Reading This]

So chill, so soothing, maybe not the most memorable or most moving but still... wholesome somehow. I imagine this could be the soundtrack to: thoughts running through your head at night. Can't sleep. Just thinking, mind chipping away, drifting away...

Would've been cool if it faded out in a way that resembled sleep.

-cd-

[Evil Intent]

I love the Terminator vibe in this thing! That steady synth, that little melody thing that reminds me of the movies... it's short but to the point. Brooding and mysterious.

Would love to see this in some kind of game!

-cd-

[Episode 33 - Thank You Mike & etc.]

Not a single review on this one! WHAT?! Time to amend that heinous happening...

I keep thinking Rustle when I thin Ruffle, wonder if the name's the most memorable and non-mixable, but yeah, Mike's a hero. Can't forget that Triple Doom Pack Trilogy from back in the day either - the game that pretty much revolutionized the process of porting actual games to Flash.

Gotta check out that Cowardly cartoon, props on shouting out that Album of The Week thread (really great way to discover new artists, and get people to listen to whatever unknown gems you know of too), and good talk overall. Does feel a bit rushed though, not just the length but how certain topics get cut real short in the favor of: moving on.

Would be pretty cool if you get Mike on this podcast too.

-cd-

[Episode 36 - ACOCk Community Talk #2]

Lotsa aspiring artists in this one! :D And hey, got to hear DyingSuyn on that new mic too (was that the new mic...?). Those endings though!!! Good talk otherwise. Creative Q&A and nonsensical ramblings all in all.

-cd-

[~Silver Memory~ -hania]

Lots of memories with this one! :) Sound quality's not as grand as I remembered it, and it fades away a bit early at the end... but the feeling... really comes across even now.

-cd-

[Big Red - Mr Jones]

Damn. Listened to this one a lot back in the day, and it still packs quite a punch. The sound quality feels a bit distant/low compared to the standards now, but everything is great, quality and flow, and it tells a story. Deep stuff.

-cd-

[Toppat 4 Lyfe]

GTA SA vibes with this one. :) Or Compton vibes. Chronic vibes. Wherever those vibes be coming from originally... it's short but: love that sound.
