HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ásum | Pink Ft. Bunbunloli [Dubstep/Dance/Video Game]]

Why am I relieved to know that this isn't typical dubstep? Anyways, Ásum doesn't disappoint. And holy crap you've got a lot of albums under your belt DarkinRed. That explains the skill displayed here. Pretty fun vocal stuff too.

DarkInRed responds:

thanks man!

[F.E.B.]

Well this has the makings of something good. Pitch/Key for the vocals needs work. Ofc, there is pitch-correct software haha. The lyrics are nicely written though and timing is more or less on point.

R0botSqu1d responds:

Lol I am definitely not a professional singer by any means but thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely try to work on my singing in future songs!

[Lost]

That happened to me with 3 really good remixes and 2 original works. Shit sucks when that happens. Luckily what you have here already is pretty strong and can be considered a full song. Can't tell if it's mixed perfectly as I didn't use my sound sticks. Sounds excellent on my big headphones though.

ClitBait responds:

ThX, I understand what it feels like. : D

[Felix Zophar - FORGE]

Some dark big beat going on here. 0:00-1:34 would make an awesome FPS loop. Then use 2:36 to roughly 3:20 as the Section B/Chorus? Dunno what you call it.

As it stands, 'Felix Zophar' is a kick ass tune, either way.

FelixZophar responds:

Thanks for the comment bro. The genre of this song is trap, and it’s called FORGE. It’s kind of a thing trap producers do is capitalize the title of the song if they think the song is epic.

[Western Punk]

Horrifying, the dissonant vibe works REALLY well. Should be featured in a TV or movie man. Heck, it could fit in a horror game too.

GALICROSS responds:

Thank you so much.
This is exactly the mood I wanted.
All my music is inspired by the world of video games. good week

[Dance of the Silent]

Lots of subtle touches here. Like the way you gated that bass. Feels like this could be a character theme, there's a lot of applications for this theme methinks.

LordAndiso responds:

Thank you for your critique. :) this is something new for me , im glad that im recieving positive feedback c:

[F-777 - Prism]

Pretty swag. Nice portamento on the lead. Glides nice.

F-777 responds:

THANKS!!! :DDD

[Hill]

Nice subtle pitch bends there. Very chill.

Mel responds:

thanks man. stay tuned for the album, this was a colab with my friend and we plan to to 9 more for an album, this being track one

[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.
