Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[For the Money]

Definitely the most unique Runback entry! :D Those vocals are crisp too... nice work ya'll. Sounds great. Interesting composition.

Reminds me a bit of Bomb The Bass Clear album.

Aalasteir responds:

Cyberdevil! Thank you so much! :D

[DJ D-Face & CasualBreather - Crazy Unc]

That beginning flow daaaang! Intense!!! The vibe's there all the way through too, great flow; great rhythm and soul, plenty of variation. Instrumental too. Love everything about this.

May be my favorite track in the Runback for real!

CasualBreather responds:

Thanks a lot CB that's an honor, man you track with Aalasteir was so lit as well, already listened to it quite a few times ;)

[Better Than The Book - Bump In The Night (Radio Edit)]

What a banger! Clever lyrics, surprise solo, uplifting vibes overall. :) Real nice way to end the initial trilogy; even out the hype here... and it seems we actually will get to hear some of these edits on the radio too now! :D

Looking forward to hearing the rest of these!

Jabun responds:

Cheers CD! Super happy you liked this one too! That solo although not super flashy is one of my favourite ones to date :) Yup this is a first for me too! All 3 singles getting on the radio (and getting NG front page awards) before the album's even out yet! Exciting times ahead :D Thanks again for checking in!

[Cassy’s Anniversary!: The Jukebox!]

This was unexpectedly good. :) Thought The Ballad of Bullshit would be my favorite but then again... each one keeps surprising, or surpassing; all have so unique styles to boot. Jazzy, atmospheric, soothing, VG-like, sappy happy upbeat and/or fast and all but crappy! Great stuff from the start. Nice backstory too.

Dope work y'all.

Creeperforce24 responds:

The songs are great, but the backstory to me is A S S

[Distortion]

This is like a genre in itself, I don't know if really is Techno or no, very interesting mix of genres and instrumental style, definitely has a metal element to it too!

Feels like the composition could have a bit more continuity maybe; a structure that carries it throughout, and a bit more space in the mix. But A+ for the detail! There's so much in this...

Nice work.

[Cartola's Freedom (Instrumental)]

So soulful; so good. :) Interesting backstory on the artist too below...

Good stuff!

-cd-

CasualBreather responds:

Thx a lot, you know more details about that ahah!

[420]

The instrumental's so vibrant in this one, lots of space with the mix, very nice... and the rap schemes; wording's complex, really liked the 'no promoting, cannabidiol' line in particular.

Fire work y'all! And a sudden groove shift halfway through too, yet seamless... soulful.

It fades away a bit quick at the end maybe... but until then 🔥

Nice work, production and composition both.

-cd-

CasualBreather responds:

Thanks a lot for the good and detailed review!!!

[104 followers PokeRap!!!]

Man you've got PIPES! :D And pace! This was fantastic dude, the initiative too, can't wait till you're up at like 20,000 fans; get a real megamix of this going!

-cd-

CasualBreather responds:

Thanks a lot! Man 100 is already a lot! 20,000 in a PokeRap megamix would probably be my last song ever! xd

[GTGP2]

Man this was FAST occasionally! Great flow; energetic groove too, I probably don't catch all the references but gotta love the GTA3 stuff in particular! :D Good memories there.

Good mix too! Rich sound.

-cd-

CasualBreather responds:

Thank you so much! So glad you comment into the mix positively, we actually put way more effort in this one mix after a few ... mid mixing in previous NGMC entries.
Yeah GTA3 was so dope, one of the first 3D open world, truly a milestone in gaming xd!

[Dark Carnival]

Woo this was introspective beyond expectations... fire beat, fire delivery, a flow that seems to just speed up and intensify the more stressful and intimate it gets...

And yet the vibe's vibrant and almost reggae-like sometimes. Love the groove.

This was definitely the best I've heard of you yet! Appreciate the candidness, but the structure and creative approach with the lines and how they build as well, and vocals all so musical.

Flawless delivery with the bomb part too.

-cd-

CasualBreather responds:

Woah thanks for this detailed and accurate feedback!
It's an honor that you appreciated it!!
The best is yet to come ;)!
