DumbOctopus's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zoftle - Delusion [Electrostep Network EXCLUSIVE]]

Piano? And choppy unintelligible vocals? AND not repetitve??? You, unironically, probably make one of the best dubstep on the internet.

Zoftle responds:

Thank you a lot man 😭

[2A03 PRACTICE - AREA 5]

Yeah, I have no chance being a successful chiptune musician when almost everyone else is like Tim Folin lol. Very impressive stuff for 2A03, though the song sounds kinda clumsy at times, but that's Famitracker's fault, I believe. A very groovy song, the bassline is so supportive it could probably be a therapist.

[SILENT SCREAMS]

Sounds awesome, sets a really cool mood. Drums could've used better mixing though (in my opinion). They sound too "pop" like for a song like this. Still cool though!
the part at 1:50-2:05 is my favorite, I really love the progression here. Something about songs that on end on more "chaotic" and dissonant sound really satisfyes me.

[Zoftle - Tripsetter]

goofy ass Newgrounds votes on non-frontpaged songs, this is above 4.27 100%. I can't really point out any specific things I like in this one, the mixing is just really good (aside from small part at 2:20, but it's not that long tbh) somewhere and the song keeps the pace well. Absolutely epic.

Zoftle responds:

Thanks a lot homie!

[Pegging For Peace]

I watched as this atrocity came to life.

[Epic Rizzler and The Legendary Skibidi]

I'm watching you

[Piano Practice]

I love the harmony here! The melody feels very tragic, yet the rhythm keeps calm. I also like how
you place the chords on every 2th and 4th.

[Snikio - Sound of Death (AIM 2024)]

Damn... I've never heard more well made 808 patterns in my life. This is so awesome.

Snikio responds:

Thanks! Those 808 lines were definitely the hardest part of making this track, and I'm glad you liked it.

[Zoftle - Basswave]

you know the dubstep song is good when the waveform looks like an intestine after eating taco bell.
Okay, shitty (haha, get it?) comparisons aside, the song is good. The bass is awesome, and I absolutely love the square wave (I hope I got it right, I'm a musician but my ears absolutely hate me) melody. I like melodies that aren't trying to be specifically sad or happy, just adding to the atmosphere of the song.

Zoftle responds:

Thank you so much!!! 😭

[Cloudy Clouds]

Sounds so stupidly happy that I can feel the sugar in my blood rising
