Chepaki's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[W8 UP]

Can't really find anything to improve here
Especially love the different reverbs on the vocals and backing vocals!

ph4de responds:

Damn!! Much much appreciated!

[LORD (Wip)]

Great stuff as always, but I must say that I usually really appreciate how you manage to make your songs so long but still interesting all the way through, but here I think it was a bit too much for me. Maybe because of the very "intense" nature of the song but idk again that's totally up to taste.

JamesHeart responds:

This is a work in progress so things are still being worked out. This song may change a little and it may change a lot

It’s a bit plane right know so you are right in thinking this

[Adventure]

Everything sounds so great in this, idk what to say. The fact that it's 5 minutes long and still not boring at all makes it even better

JamesHeart responds:

I was worried a bit about the length tbh so this is comforting!

im glad it keeps you entertained!!

[Hell Hunt (Soundtrack) - Inner Strength]

Uuuum, well I guess it can fit certain situations, but I don't think anyone would like to listen to this for more than 20 seconds
Most "stressful" tracks in video games still have some sort of melody, chords and so on: something can still be stressful and feel "musical"
I'm not even sure if it's the kind of thing you're going for, but here's some example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU-NTB-MI2s

CrackerHumps responds:

Thanks for your input. It was really just a 8 bar thing I made in class, that I didn't have time to make longer, so I just looped it. I'll try to go back, and make it something more musical.

[Chy]

Just listened to your 2 last tracks, and I must say "rism" sounds like a wip of this song. This one's great tho

GDPrism responds:

Thank you! Rism was an older song that I decided to add to the EP before I chose the names.

[A World I Once Knew (Original)]

Really nice? I don't know what to say... Everything sounds nice, nothing is out of place, progression is perfect... HmmmmmMMMM purely my opinion but maybe even add some variation in the drums? It's not even something I'm good at so I'm not sure

pichuscute0 responds:

Thanks for taking a listen and I'm glad you seem to like it. :)

I won't lie, I'm still feeling around in the dark a bit when it comes to drums in 3/4 time, too. You definitely could be right. I decided to take it a bit safe and go a little more minimal on that front this time. So, maybe next time I do something in 3/4, I'll give more dynamic drums are shot!

[My Bum Goes to Rumbletown]

I think the lowest note you go to with your bass instrument is a bit too low for it and it becomes more a vibration than a note but otherwise everything is sounding pretty cool

wobwobrob responds:

Thanks Chepaki!

[Honesty]

Not especially a fan of the genre, but I'm surprised you're not scouted yet.
( oh and just so you know, you forgot to remove the timestamp in the youtube link )

OrangeKeyboard responds:

Thanks! hahaha

[liveD oN truH [8-bit]]

Damn, your 4 tracks are great. I really have nothing to say about a single one them. They all really fit the theme you described perfectly and have a lot of personality. Whatever the game was, I'm sure you could make a great soundtrack for any game.

Lost-Reflection responds:

I appreciate the praise and rating. Thank you very much. These songs were entertaining to create, I suppose. The game was a game inspired by NES in design and Hollow Knight. Your stuff is good too, listening through at this very moment.

[Estelle]

Well, the only complaint I could give is that it's not very "original", but it definitely is a good synthwave song
Oh and the synth you introduce at 1:43 seems to be slightly off tempo at 2:07 and some notes after that ( and I don't think it's because of the attack )

TheBluePessimist responds:

Thx for your feedback, I really need them because the most people say that they like it and I am then like: give me honest feedback
It is good to know what my mistakes are so I can become better with time

Thank you so much
