HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[First Snow]

Cool Chip Hybrid tune. Mix is nice and tight. Love it.

LordAndiso responds:

Thank you! :)))))))))))))))))))))))))

[There Is Always Hope]

Nice Tape Echo vibe. Cool percussion. Reminds me of 90's CD games and some DKC. Kinda reminds me of Dune and some Puzzle games too.

Tremulos responds:

Thank you!! That echo is what I spent most of my time on, believe it not lol. Thank you for the kind words and the vivid descriptions.

[Terminus]

Love the evolution here. And Finally! Something that's not hogging the ceiling...I'm saved. I kinda like that the beat is pushed back to let the gated pad atmosphere take over. It sounds complex and simple at the same time somehow. Not an easy feat to pull off. Reminds me of Mass Effect 2.

[Daily Ritual]

Wow, this is some ASMR stuff. Love the avant-garde drum samples. Cool soundscape...mellow and a bit psychedelic*.

Mel responds:

thank you so much! more unique tracks coming soon!

[Filth in Dust]

Like the mixdown at 1:13. I prefer quieter drums for these moody pieces, but eh, here's a 5. Reminds me of Terranigma and Mana games.

[By-Blow (The Stay At Home Drunk)]

Nice and mellow. Loving the retro 3-band E/Q feel to it too. Reminds me of better times haha. Nice lyrics too.

ConnorDeVaux responds:

Thanks, I had to record this in a cramped corner of a garage, my back still hurts haunching over a mic with an acoustic and for singing. Thanks a lot for the kind review :)

[[Dark Trap] From the Darkside]

This and From the Darkest Side are both cool.

[From the Darkest Side]

Nice electro-smack vibe going on. Trippy. This version is way beefier mm mm.

[Zinawave]

Do you have some albums that I can grab off of Bandcamp? Some of the tom fills are executed a bit oddly, since the samples cut short such as 1:56...something weird is going on there. Otherwise this is golden.

ClitBait responds:

I wanted them to sound like glitching

[Snaz]

Maybe the gated kick is too loud? Other than that, I don't have the skill to deep-dive and analyze all the elements. The rest of it probably falls into subjective categories anyways. Maybe make the piano brighter with some more reverb? Idk hahaha
