Phronemophobia's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[[Super Metroid_Spoof] The Hunter's Boy Toy]

*Samus enters the room* "It's a STONE, Luigi!"

HoboKa responds:

You know da wae. Old memes ftw.

[Apricot Rag | 2021]

It's simple and fun. Charming and uplifting. The sort of thing you play to a wholesome comedy skit in a silent film about a squirrel falling in love with a chipmunk and trying to figure out how to get her to notice him.

Bertn1991 responds:

She'll definitely notice him when he brings in the apricots! Not all squirrels are chipmunks, but all chipmunks are squirrels, so they can totally be friends!

[Spike Pit Blitz (Mystic Cave Zone remix)]

I see it mentioned a lot on this site, but I never properly understood the mindset of "better place for" when it comes to sharing one's art. Share it everywhere that's appropriate and maximize exposure for your works. This is good stuff, Neon (nearly all your songs are) and it would be a shame if I was a YT-only fan and missed out on this or a NG-only follower and missed out on other songs.

NeonLuigi responds:

Thank you. I probably should change that mindset and just do it anyway. I initially just thought "Eh, people on YT don't really care for original stuff, I might just not upload it on there".

Mystic Cave one is being uploaded of course, I mostly meant original music, but you're right.

[[Sonic Heroes spoof] Sonic The DoucheLog Vol.2]

It wouldn't be a proper Sonic tune of the '00s without Robotnik's pingas.

HoboKa responds:

Indeed!

[[Cyborg Hobo Cavemen] Slow 'n Heavy Does it!]

On the one hand, this is not my favorite track from the album. On the other hand, if the entire album is excellent, then that first statement doesn't really mean much, does it?

As always, thank you for supporting the Audio Portal with your talent, Alex.

[Rubber Chocolate]

I don't really know how to take this. It sounds like it was cut out of the middle of a longer song. You certainly make unique music, but I can't always wrap my head around how I would imagine hearing it. While I'm cruisin' on the road? Looking out the window on a rainy day? Suffering from a cocktail of expired drugs? I don't know, HOTS.

[Get a Squirrel (2020)]

YES, BERTN! YES!

Bertn1991 responds:

Smiles for miles ^____^

[Lovebug Virus (2012-2020)]

These Lovebug tunes are some of your bestest uploads, Bertn. That term must be your version of giving something your own seal of quality.

Bertn1991 responds:

Super thank you! I don't know about seal of quality. I would say seal of "this one is especially special to me and I hope other people also enjoy it." That's a pretty long seal I guess.

[Lovebug Virus 2019]

I didn't know this existed. How did I miss this gem last year?!
