HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Streetlight, Sunlight]

Sounds quite close to the intent, nice work with crushing the snare sample. Some of the instruments feel a tad too loud. I think it's the organ and the flutey thing that complements it. Bass is perfect and drums are dope.

[FLAP (OST)]

Pretty dang good.

[THE SIGNAL]

Hello Silent Hill-Like ambience. Killer.

[Onikuma]

Hoooo boy, this puts some Cinematic trailers to shame. Friggin' HOT.

[Koromodako]

This production is definitely studio quality. What vocal VSTs are you using here?

Miyolophone responds:

hey, thanks for all your super kind reviews!! i really appreciate them :)

i believe i used Soundiron's Requiem Lite and FluffyAudio's Haunted Choir, but honestly technology is at the point where any company's library could be as effective or more (in fact, i'm not even a huge fan of Requiem—it's just what i happened to impulse-buy 3 years ago). it's all in the composition & automation!

[Gem Setter OST - 02 Circle]

Swag, tight, jazzy, smoooth. And great synth/organic fusion.

[GM,BW OST - 01 - Time Ray]

Beautiful and haunting. I get a huge sense of anxiety and wonderment. This is powerful and emotional.

[GM,BW OST - 02 - L-O-O-P (The Royal Skillet)]

Hooo boy. It's Samba with some Jazz. Or I just don't know my genres. Not that it matters. That brass instrument is so good. A lot of care went into making sure everything sounds human. Jiving to this!

[GM,BW OST - 03 - Chipville]

Man, I wish I wasn't so afraid of rejection, otherwise I'd be putting myself out there in the industry. Making music for other people is hard. Just needed a platform to winge hahahaha, don't mind me.

ANYWAYS, I love the muted trumpet and them jazzy flutes again. The mix work is great, no annoying tones that hurt the ears. Very professional sounding and gives off the great PS1/PS2 classics vibes that everyone craves in their JRPGs and J-Adventures.

[GM,BW OST - 04 - Another Me?]

Heh, reminds me of Shin Megami Tensei and Persona. Anime stuff too. This is tiiight.
