HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Synthwave_Feels]

So classic Synthwave, I'd assume would use 808 samples or reverby rock drums.
Also, does classic Synthwave use side-chaining (and Cutoff Frequencies on the Master)? I thought it was more brick-wall-of-sound hahaha. It's so well produced. EDIT) The pads seem legit. Bass could be a bit more squelch-y sounding imo. With some bowm bowm sounds.

Thanks for that !!
i used the wrong base now i think about it
i used my Sub base instead of my mono base ..
but 808 samples mmmm.. i have those

[The EarthBound treatment]

Good ole nostalgia. Nice work with the sf2's mate. Nice groove too.

[My name is MrSnuggles]

NICE. Got a suggestion: if you want it to be a perfect Loop, remove the Piano Low Notes and push them about 4 bars ahead - or remove them. Otherwise, this is Solid. Nice work dood. Another idea is keep the Low notes but extend the Main and Hook sections for another minute or so?? Dunno...just some thoughts.

RealMrSnuggles responds:

Thanks for the feedback

[Computer Wizard II]

Grats on the Front Page. Pretty decent synthwave era rock hybrid.

[Computer Wizard]

Pretty decent synthwave-y tune. The arps are kewl. 1:34 outtro was a bit too long imo.

[Computer Wizard III]

Well, now you're very relevant with a HoboKa stamp of approval. Thank god for me. Wait...that's Jim Sterling's line. This is friggin' dope. Love how Computer Wizard III evolves. 80's goodness.

Syntrus responds:

Thanks for all the reviews :)

[Biclops The Game]

Man that intro dialogue reminds me of Lumpy Touch's content on YT. I bet he does NG too. Haven't checked.

*Ahem* anyways...This is a pretty decent track. Reminds me of EWJ and Metal Slug. It is for Neo Geo, so it tracks.

[Sunstruck]

Bilmo covered all the main things that make 'Sunstruck' good. Though not having a bass in the breakdown isn't really a bad idea, I like it. Helps keep the ear fresh. Especially after a review-binge.

[My Glasses (NG cut)]

After hearing some real ear rape in the audio portal, I can TRULY appreciate stuff that is only 80% of the max shelf. Thank the lord. Great synth brass, synthwave and Delay Rhytmic synth work. I like that snare sample too. This is what NG is about baby.
