HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[AIM-Tragedy]

Very beautifully done. Who's cutting those onions??
The craftsmanship and attention to humanization on those violins, cellos etc is just amazing! Really digged the arrangement too! T_T

DigitalProdigy responds:

thank you so much for that. I really appreciate that!!
sorry about those onions!!! 😊

[Taking Out The Trash (AIM2022) Roberta]

Sounds as violent as the description. Excellent. And well produced too!

[AIM 2022 | Siberg - The Journey]

Pretty sick EDM Bladerunner vibe going on here. Definitely fits the animated pic to a tee. Good jorb! Not a judge though, so don't get your hopes up too high hehehe.

Siberg responds:

maybe you should be a judge tho :)

[AIM - Storytellers Tale]

Fairly decent humanization of those acoustic instruments there. I think the reverb level is decent enough. I second L-Mitty that some sort of atmospheric pad/environmental atmosphere in the background wouldn't have hurt. But I think the humanization of your VST instruments here isn't that bad.

[AIM - Stalwart & Ready For Battle]

Produced well enough, but it does get a touch repetetive. I didn't mind the transition phases too much, but yea they coulda used some mild kinda audio cue to let the listener know there's an arrangement shift, particularly since the rhythmic stuff is quite repetitive. I think you're getting there as a composer, keep at it!

[Lost]

Decent enough start. As a simple BGM loop, this could work hehe.

V1ZION responds:

I’ve got something in store for the extended version. :)

[AIM - Where Even the Monsters Cry]

Strings at 0:28 1:25 could've been mixed down and given a lot more reverb imo, plus that segment coulda been shorter as well. Took us a bit too long to get to the 'good part'. The rest of the track is decent enough, especially with the percussion. Nice work.

[Dawn]

'Dawn' has that modern uncanny 'something is off' indie vibe to it. Gives me a feeling of respite from the danger, sort of like a 'refuge' of sorts. Hard to put into words I s'pose, but it definitely fits the picture here. Nice work!

[The Forgotten Mystics]

Mystical wonder! Big and sometimes overwhelming, like the atmosphere is very heavy.

ZaazNG responds:

Thank you so much! Definitely went for a very atmospheric approach with this one :)

[Baby.]

The baby. The baby. The baby. Oops. Getting Other M flashbacks...

This song is awesome though!
