Quest's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mallet (NGADM 2023)]

Feels like a lost level of Smash Hit. Very chill. I love it!

[Synth V Vocals test]

I'd rather not dive into the ethics of AI in music creation, so I'll mostly talk about the song. Honestly, the vocals sound fine. They sound a bit generic in places, but other than that, they would pass as a real voice if you had not said that it was AI. It sounds great. Everything else sounds great too, and I would love to hear an instrumental version of this.

One last thing, just remember, it's not a one way trip. I don't know why you would think that.

Thank you!, I'm not good at doing either lyrics or vocal lines, I'm strictly an instrumental artist!.

Having AI vocals changes the world for me, I've worked with many, many vocalists but always on songs that are someone else's or collaborations, I like being mostly independent when it comes to making music for myself so having an easy way to just go *plop* and put vocals into a song I've made is super freeing!, I know it's not a one way trip, but it does feel just *amazing* to have vocals haha.

About the ethics of AI in music creation well, I don't think of it as a voice, nothing ever will replace the human voice, but it is a tool, another instrument, just like some people use guitars VSTs because they can't play (or afford) guitar and all it's equipment, there's no replacing the real thing!.

Thank you for your comment!, the song is very, very not done and still an extreme WIP, I didn't compose it with the idea of it having vocals and this is just like, an hour of messing with the program and writing the cheesy lyrics, but I wanted to share my findings with the world!

[Moonflowers]

Beautiful. Has that sort of 80's energy to it. Happy GD10!

[-Unstable Geometry-]

This has some good variety to it while still sticking to a consistent style. I look forward to seeing this in-game. Happy GD10!

[Check Out]

This actually sounds pretty epic.

[-Electroman Adventures V3-]

The guitar is incredible.

[-Electroman V3 OP (feat. PelleK)-]

I would watch this if this were a show on Cartoon Network.

[Strange City Loop]

A little off-putting in places, but it has potential.

[Pathfinder]

I cry every time I hear this song. I've wanted to write this review for a long time, but only now have I found the strength and words to do so. This song makes me feel alive. It makes me want to reach for the stars and be something more. It sings to me, and sends the powerful message of "It's not over", and that there are things in this world worth living for. Hearing this song makes me want to hold my loved ones close as we take on the universe together; flying through the sky, eyes reflecting the eternal starlight. There is more beyond the indifferent moon and the cold, dead ocean.

Whenever I need a little hope to pull me out of the darkness, I have this song. It's more uplifting to me than any therapist or crisis unit. Should I be concerned that much of my mental stability relies on the existence of this one song? Probably. I'm just glad to have it. In times of despair, it acts as my guide, my pathfinder to find the reason why I didn't take that leap of faith.

There's so much more that I want to say about this song, but even after all this time, I can't put my feelings into words. I'm just left here, crying over a keyboard and the memories. It hurts so much to remember, but at least I am feeling something. There's a decent chance I wouldn't be alive right now if this song didn't exist. Kubbi, if you ever see this message, I want you to know how incredibly thankful I am. Your music touched me and saved me from my own downfall. I hope I am not the only one that feels this way, but somehow, I already know that I am not alone.

Thank you.

[BEST DROP OF ALL TIME]

"You lied to me..."
