HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[RejSende & Eonboi - Espresso]

So smooth and chill. Low Fi goodness.

Vimori responds:

Thanks!

["Gearing Up"]

The ending could use some more loop-savvy work. But the main body is perfect. There is several ways to go about it, but the easiest, would be to keep the arpreggio strings going and have them playing at 0:00 - to 0:09 too, just to keep it cohesive. Hope you found the feedback handy!

BrokenDeck responds:

Wow! This is a long forgotten song indeed! Thanx for your review!

[Self-Proclaimed Trouble Maker (Sega)]

I'm getting some huge Battle Toads meets Streets of Rage.

BakiTheFox responds:

Thanks! That was some of the inspiration. that and revenge of shinobi

[Sega Desert Platformers are like Non-Sega Desert Platformers]

Love the percussion beat and the synths are cool.

BakiTheFox responds:

Thanks!

[Radio Silence]

The beat being quiet then loud to match the mood is brilliant. Coulda used a 0.2dB boost imo, but whatevs. The other elements are aight.

Hypervolt responds:

Thank you! I was goin for that kind of lost-and-found vibe

[Second Sun]

Cool dynamics. Fits the descript quite well. This reminds me of great animations from the 80's. Some articulations are very MIDI with the brass, but I'm guilty of that too. So can't cast stones rly. All the other parts are executed well and the longer brass notes are fine anyways. Here's a 5.

Hypervolt responds:

Thanks for the feedback! :)

[succ a bus]

Oh right, I heard this on my Lappy but forgot to review it. I like the weirder experimental styles from you I think. Pretty dang impressive mate. Gotta suck some buses.

RealMrSnuggles responds:

Gotta suck them all indeed lol

[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!

[Arabic Synth]

Bit too detuned imo. But cool concept nonetheless.

ClitBait responds:

if honesty for me the sounds are not ugly

[Attack of the Devil Bat (CVADV x Fahad Lami Epic Orchestral Remix)]

Wow, Lost Odyssey vibes here. Love me some remixes hahaha. Such good nostalgia here. Well done d00d. Love the dynamics at play, from heavy to low. Probably could go into more picky details with production, but eh, it's pretty solid. I think I prefer the German pluck over the piano a bit. But eh.

FahadLami-NG responds:

Thank you very much! :D
