Cyberdevil's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Next Year]

Woah, this is like looking at the stars spin outside. It fills the room. Really great, enviornmental, emotional ambiance. Perfect background music for any serene scene or situation. Looking forward to more like this!

ErikMcClure responds:

I have been considering doing my next album in this style.

[Dingly Dangs]

It starts off ambiently, and builds up till a point where it sounds pretty psychadelic.The pace never really picks up though, and I'm wondering how it would sound if it speeds up towards the end. Overall a good piece!

falling responds:

I think I'll try that out, speeding it up and attempt to build it, carry the idea along a bit. Thank you for the compliments.

[Cold Reflections WIP]

Nice and ambient, though maybe a bit bland. The melody itself sounds nice, but somehow it doesn't really glow, maybe the recording quality is just a bit crappy. I'd be happy to hear this with cleaner sound, would be a whole new experience! keep it going!

MasterCoyle responds:

I'm sorry I couldn't sway you with this. The reason the 'recording' quality is bad is because it was never recorded. I composed it at the piano straight onto the computer. Everything you hear being played in the piece is what's called 'midi' sound which is pretend instruments. That's also probably why it feels expressionless. Cheers for the review.

[Sunshine]

Starts off a bit slow, and then it... doesn't really speed up at all. :) The snares add some intensity , and the melody is interesting, but it still feels a bit plain. There's potential though, added layers and maybe pace and it would be great. Keep it up!

Thanks for the tips

[Sapphire Tears Magnetic Remix]

Niiiice

Great sound, starts off a bit icy, cool, and picks up the intensity nicely as it moves along. Great guitars, they really tear at the otherwise so ambient music, it's a good contrast... though sometimes they seem almost too sharp. Would be nice with somekind of solo somewhere in the track too, something fast, think Van Halen. Otherwise great work, keep it up!

-cd-

merlin responds:

Thanks for the listen! I sort of toyed with doing a crazy solo over the slower part, but I couldn't get it to blend too well over all the synthetic sounds, and I couldn't give up any other part, cause I loved it too much. Sadly the song reached the 5 minute cap before I could get there. Perhaps I'll make an extended version after this competition! Stay tuned, and thanks for the 9.

Regards,
merlin

[[v150r - liberation dream VIP]]

Nice!

I love this tune, it starts of ambient, smoth, the beat kicks in and I can't stop jumping, ambient all the way through but still intense, great energy all the way through, flows well, varies just enough to never get monoton. The beat sounds real, the strings in the background do a lot for the music, and those squiggly shimmering sounds, they give the tune a nice bright atmosphere even with the beat, great music, keep it going!

v150r responds:

thanks for your response! ;)

[Black Jack-Ambient Music]

Smooth

A great tune, it's soft, smooth, varied. Much happier than most ambient music too, which is nice, like a walk in the sunshine. Good pace, fast enough to be energetic but not fast enough to stress. Sound quality seems pretty high too, and I love the guitar, sounds less than I thought guitars could sound, haha, if you know what I mean. Overall it's one of those tracks I could have looping constantly in the background while working on other stuff, just good music. Keep it up!

-cd-

ChineseBoar1995 responds:

Thanks! Like I said, it's one of my better creations out of all the other songs I made.

[You Do It To Yourself]

Woo

A nice smooth track, has a pretty skippy rythem, it's diffrent. Very bright and melodic with clear sound and lots o variation, great consistent rythem, and the underlying vocals are a nice addition to it. Keep it going!

-cd-

merlin responds:

Thanks for the great review! I'm honored to have someone with ears as experienced as your listening to my stuff!

Regards,
merlin

[Aliens_On_Earth [Box-Kill]

Wooo, creepy!

Haha, I love the intro in this, sends rythmical shivers down my spine. Very nice and heavy beat, and the background screech gives it a nice touch of alienation. Keep it going!

-cd-

Box-Killa responds:

haha nice

[Dark_Awakeining [Box-Kill]

Smooth

Very nice tune, smooth, simple, with a lasting flow and a catchy melody. Would be nice background music for many themes, serious shorts, highpitched fighting, puzzles, mostly everything. Has ambience and contributional adrenaline kicks in it, keep it going!

-cd-

Box-Killa responds:

Cool beans :D CD! Compuct dusk. Adrenaline kicks ehy!
