HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Yukon]

Nice work.

[random VG song 1]

Reminds me of Fear Factory from DKC at parts. Nothing wrong with adapting a rhythm and altering it a bunch. Totally not guilty of that. Nope.

Really good production and fairly solid chord structure. I think it swaps between minor and major at parts. Unsure. I'm not that versed in theory.

[Sweet Feelings]

Awesome cut-off frequency effect on the secondary rhythmic thingy. And lots of pulse width. This is phat. Loving that robo bass. Great beat. Clap that robot booty. Lot's of cool evolution.

[Solo Triumph]

Solid analog pads. Nice and chill beat. Again, on the quiet side, but not awful.

[Galaxy Glide]

Great!. But one can tell by the waveform that this is mixed very quiet. Could use a master boost, or just up the individual instruments each by about 1/4. Otherwise, pretty solid.

Unless this is BGM and it's meant to be quiet for a game. Then Ignore me.

[Futurelovania]

This has a funky vibe alright. Haven't played Undertale, but I am getting some Earthbound vibes here. At 0:53 onward it starts to unravel a bit imo. There's another layer of the repeating rhythm that doesn't really add much and sounds a bit annoying =l

Personally, I think it's better as a loop point from start to 0:53. Not sure if the rest is really an addition...least to me.

Caveat: the unique drum ideas work pretty well. You could probably rinse and repeat and just use those additional drum patterns to spice things up. *shrug*

Maybe other people will have more insight or better opinions.

True

[Sub-orbital Base]

The detuned (5ths?) are a really nice touch. Great syncopation too. Pulsing rhythm is kick ass. Could dance the robot to 'Sub-Orbital Base' too.

[Broken]

Could use a bit more humanization, but pretty good melody and rhythms.

DjTheDarkFlameMaster responds:

Thanks for your commentary bro, have a nice day!

[Megaman X - Dr.Light (Project X Cover)]

oooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo!! This song gave me mad ASMR as a kid. Heh, you adapted that jazzy rock vibe from the other source tunes of MMX and created a kick ass cover-mix. Creative!
