Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hyperglass-V.03_overdrive]

Do care. ;) This is some rainbow colored puke y'know! Catchy as always, even with that slight of melancholy in the message I'd rather not delve deeper into. Pleasure listening to.

[Episode 41 - It's meatcanyon again! & etc.]

Always appreciate that improv. XD And that intro eh... that was... pretty entertaining.

Can't think of much to say about this one. Y'all got pretty good chemistry. Entertaining talk. Was about to critique that dubstep really isn't oldskool but in this case: Aight. I see now. Good stuff.

[Fall Down Hard]

Pretty ambient for a boss battle, but not without that constant tension flooding through it... can definitely dig this. The saw-like vibe in back reminds me of some particular track that I can't quite place... Prodigy, maybe...? Oh, Basement Jaxx - Where's Your Head At! Has some pretty creative overtones above that, though. Metal playing in the wind. An eerie kind of intensity. Unique and vibeable stuff!

Rorrapalooza responds:

Dude, I fucking love Basement Jaxx.

[Episode 39 - It's mrjoeyprosser! & etc.]

Boomers make for pretty entertaining interviewees. :)

This was great. I listened to this one on route somewhere and seem to have forgotten most topics I would've probably commented on otherwise, but in regards to stopmotion at least: it seems that genre is actually on the rise lately! If you haven't heard of EdBound I'd recommend checking out some of his stuff. Seems like one of many newcomers who've recently started bringing back some life to this ancient and all-in-all awesome scene.

And great selections. I loved that catch a Pope bit too. XD But with regards to GHOSTHACK, I feel like an at least somewhat consistent melody is what allows you to really immerse yourself in music. I appreciate the effort that went into this but in the end I appreciate it more so because of that than because it really carried a build or structure that let you in. I wish they would've done more in that regard, since the detail level otherwise was just insane.

Also holy shit 17,000,000 views is a lot of views!!! Hope there'll be more of those projects lined up too. Good convo.

[Episode 40 - It's kawaisprite! & etc.]

Can't mention Kanye West quite enough can you. :D I think I've actually only heard one of his albums though, something about graduation, but it was great... should check out more.

As for the interview: enlightening. Have you thought about sticking to that ketosis thing with just a little extra fiber @KawaiSprite? More like LCHF? Like still a ton of protein and energy-promoting stuff but also a little green stuff to break it down? The rear regions of your body won't be disappointed.

Also ey, first linda-mota shout-out! Good to hear y´all discovered her macabre but masterful art stuff. I really wouldn't mind a 3 hour podcast either, and second live show ever with this one huh. XD That was, hmm... no words can describe it.

I laughed a ton with this one. Great stuff.

-cd-

[Episode 39.5 - Etc. & etc.]

That intro, that improv. XD Also very nice musical selections. When you mentioned CARRION I thought for sure you meant this though (which is really worth a view): https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/r4in/carrion

Regarding that Grounds Patrol spin-off thing... I have mixed thoughts about that too. My first stance was there's enough talent on NG to go around, and with a podcast funded by NG contributions it feels wrong to in a way carry those funds elsewhere, and promote artists not of this site - especially when Tom's the main sponsor - but when he himself approves of the transition... well then, maybe it's all good. Can't use that card.

I did enjoy the interview too, so have to rethink my thoughts a bit. It might not be all bad with some outside perspectives. I discovered a new program. I'm now aware of a new genre of animation. GetMadz seems like a cool dude. I do however hope the main focus remains with NG; especially when it's actually embedded in their name.

Maybe this will be the grand divide between your two projects though? ACOCK's still keeping it hardcore. Down to the Grounds. Exclusively infamous peeps up in this biatchizzle!!!

Great convo as always.

[🌆 #16: Ben Spurgin's Legacy]

Honestly must say I barely remember a thing about Ben, iconic as his name rings, but his legacy... it's nice to hear it'll live on! There was definitely a lot more edginess back then too. Even though I don't appreciate content that's edgy just for the sake of being edgy these days I do miss the times when people could just speak their minds, and not be judged about it. Or rather: everyone could judge everyone. All judgement could be judged just as much. People said and did what they wanted and sometimes that just so happened to be what also needed to done or said. And some people stood at the forefront of that freedom.

At the same time it was a time that bred people who didn't get as offended over the most petty things. An aggressive yet peaceful time of oddly conflicting coexisting views and community...

Gotta mention, regarding the recording: the voice was a bit flaky sometimes. Mic distance very varied, probably. But I love the passion! Would be cool to get some conversation going regarding livecorpse too, or other peeps from the in memoriam pages. That guy had a really sad backstory as well.

Good stuff, and good luck with that project @Jamessimo !

[🌆 #17: NSFW Art Roundtable]

Much NG love in this podcast! :D Awesome how y'all actually prefer this over Twitter - ideal marketing purposes though the latter platform may serve. Also hell yeahs would love to hear Speedo and Spazkid on the pod too. Not to mention Shad. The one and only. Feels like these podcasts aren't just a surge on NG but everywhere - it's like people are rediscovering the content form. Or getting more social, in a strange; anti-social kind of way, getting involved via third party conversations.

Regarding NSFW art getting crazier and crazier lately, I feel like ero guro at least may be becoming a bit less common...? Or maybe I'm just spending time in less edgy places lately. I feel like vanilla's coming back too. Pinups. Bondage. Lots of that stuff. Have I just zoned in a specific sub category of the arts though or could I be seeing trends y'all aren't hmmmmm.

Anyhow this was great to listen to. Insights and entertainment all the way, and I might've just discovered a couple new favorite artists too...

[🌆 #18: GetMadz]

That Character Animator program really does seem interesting... and one by Adobe no less! Expected it to be some small spin-off-no-one-ever-heard of thing. Will definitely look into that.

Also would invite GetMadz to join up at the place that really started it all too, NG, right here. Ain't no place like it! Maybe signing up for an NG account could be a pre-requisite for being in these podcasts? ;) He/you (if you're reading this) seem(s) like a pretty creative dude.

I like the idea of bringing in new perspectives too. And new people. Also feels like the YT community might be more like the lunch room that GetMadz describes, whereas NG is that small, enclosed circle where everyone knows everyone, and bonds overtime, overcoming mutual hardships and all those trials and tribulations that both smaller platforms and creators face. So y'know, that account's just a click away...

Anyhow: great convo. Looking forward to more of these, though hope you keep inviting certified NG peeps too. There's so many I'd like to hear here. Deathink, Sabtastic, Tom(noneedtotypeoutlastname), Cheetoh, ClockworkPixel, TheComet, ZebraHumor, TylerLandis, EdBound, MrNannings, MarkAnime, SouljaBoy, KarlSia, MLeth, SomeonesEx, Ant0on, ChazDude, artistunkown, MistyEntertainment, d-z, Deprixon, RadioTubeClock, Pop-Tart, SBC (and other clocks), Kol-Belov, BrentHeMan, Jaime-R, Kel-chan and sucho just to name a few. If for some reason you felt you were running out of interesting people. ;)

Keep up the good works!

Will responds:

Whoa! Thanks for the great list!

[The Fuck Is This Shit]

It's good shit, that's what it is! :D At least the first half of it. Kinda gets out of control at the end there, skewed and distorted... but it's a cool groove. Creative stuff.

-cd-

Rorrapalooza responds:

Hahaha, dude, exactly! I keep thinking, "How many people are going to get to the part where it starts to get completely ridiculous?" Thanks for making it there, my dude.
