Quest's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[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.

NahuPyrope responds:

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!

[BEST DROP OF ALL TIME]

"You lied to me..."

Demonicity responds:

>:D

[Hexagon and On]

Amazing. How do you make such good music? What I love about this track is that it not only sounds incredible, but it has some actual variety to it. That bass is peak too.

Well done.

Also, how was this not frontpaged?

Zanzlanz responds:

Thanks so much! I am literally not sure how I pulled off this track - I had the right combination of tools and mindset that is a bit hard for me to replicate. But just this past week I made a new chiptune plugin that makes it MUCH easier to make the same types of sounds I created for this track, so perhaps there'll be more to come :)

I don't think any of my older music got front paged, haha. But hey if this is good enough, maybe it could be nominated for one of the yearly Treasure Hunts :D

[Archscope - Black vivid]

Simple and a little too uniform throughout, but I suspect that was the entire point. The distortion at the end feels unnecessary, but still sounds okay.

Overall, it's a good ambient track. I could easily see this in the next big indie horror game.

HaylenWillis responds:

thank you, the whole ep that this track is in is basically a goof around of tracks that are indeed very unifrom. my music in an indie game though, that'd be fucking nuts!! :D

[Resonate]

This song gets pretty intense, but I love the soft sections too.

Hyp3rL3ss responds:

thank you! <3

[new dawn]

Glitchy and intense, I love it!

killedherself responds:

glad u like

[Adventure]

I want to hug this song like it's a little fluffball, it's so cute!

Gravii responds:

Thank you <3

[BIG KYOTO]

This is a really good track. And honestly, I think the guitars are balanced good enough, but that's just me.

Daveisgr81 responds:

Thanks so much - I'm not quite getting the oomph I want from it yet!

[A-Beat Crushed Idealism]

Beautiful little chiptune melodies.

Santi-Montali responds:

Thank you :3

[Red Exit (Reissue)]

Just plain awesome metal.

BERSERKYD responds:

Thanks a lot sire !
