NekoMika's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Turn Back The Desert]

You have such dreamy vocals. Makes me think of a few metal bands but with a harder hitting drum sound and better vocals. Really enjoyed this, great work!

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thank you very much! Glad you like it!! :)

[Evasion Game]

The tune makes me think of a fusion of Pong and Rally-X. Makes me think of them both being mashed together and then being slowed down.

The bass tone has a _ - sound to it that works for this tune, really not too bad to have a simple bass rhythm for a song like this.

The main synth makes me think of a fast paced game that has sudden bursts of slowing down to let the player catch their breath. Sounds pretty good.

Overall, not too bad for a loop. Kind of curious how it would sound with some drums added to the mix.

BenTibbetts responds:

OK. Thanks for the feedback.

[The Hand That Feeds (Cover)]

This is a very good cover. I agree though, the vocals could be changed out. I'm still practicing vocals. Would not mind trying to help if you do another Nine Inch Nails cover. Been a fan of them for years. :D Awesome to see you had fun though.

[Cyberdevil's Back]

Well I never saw this one coming. Had no idea you were a rapper as well CyberDevil. Great voice for singing as well.

Cyberdevil responds:

Found out through that 'favorite rappers on NG' topic maybe? Glad you liked it! If I had some better equipment I'd be making a lot more of this stuff. :)

[The Hallucination]

Not too bad for a dubstep song. I think the only thing I would really change is that first synth. Saying that since it seems like you could filter it a bit so it is not so loud.

The dubstep bass is great. What plugin did you use to create it? Also nice how I can tell there is slight use of Gross Beat to give the illusion of the bass fading at times. then the bass gets slow and mellow then kicks right back into the song. Would fit well for a boss that changes between average and harder than hard to beat.

The second synth I hear away from the wubs is pretty clean and provides a nice backing rhythm. It makes me think of some older dubstep tracks that tend to be light as well The Glitch Mob synths.

The drums are nice and the kicks are heavy and layered as they need to be for this kind of track.

Overall, nice dubstep track.

[The Girl that Makes me Smile]

This is a beautiful piece. Puts a smile on my face and makes me think of better days to come.

The melody makes me think of meeting someone who just seems to make you feel warm inside by just being themself and accepting you for you at the same time. Slowly feelings become friendship, and then grows into hanging out more and more, and finally wanting to be together forever and make each other happy by simply being happy together.

The violin coming in is beautiful and really hits up the much needed high notes to make this song sound inspirational. Using headphones makes this song feel much more atmospheric.

Overall, no flaws or ways to improve this song. Beautiful work.

Jabicho responds:

Hi STE3, thanks so much for your words! they mean a lot.
I love how you described how the melody was growing, since I felt it was the same description that I felt while writing it.

[Hyrule Castle]

This sounds pretty good but it feels almost like something was off. Could just be me feeling that the synth does not fit in with the rest of the song. Maybe that synth could have been replaced with a rhythm guitar riff?

The drums sound good here and I really like the double bass kick feel I get from this. Come to think of it, this song would probably sound just as good with double bass kicks for almost the full song. Not bad at all.

Overall, interesting attempt but I feel the synth does not truly belong here.

Twone responds:

Interesting that you say that, since the synth was exactly what I was feeling at the time. I didn't want to add more guitar, since I had three other guitar tracks, so I wanted to try something a little different. I knew that it'd be a risk, but I regret nothing! :)

Thanks for the review!

[The Happy Kitty Song]

This song is incredibly adorable. Is that an actual cat meowing or just you making a cat sound? Nice little loop.

djahmusic responds:

its an actual cat sound =)
Thanks :p
