Anjovi's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Forgetfulness]

Great work Lib!

The samples meld together real nice!

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Thanks Anj!

[Gilden Roots]

A thing of beauty man! :D

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Thanks dog

[Darkness Falls]

Very rappable beat! no idea if the ringing/siren sounds are apart of the dialogue sample, but they fit just right, would suggest keeping those in if you ever keep a cut without the vocals.

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Yeah, that ringing is the sound of the plane taking off in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Or the vibes at 0:00? That's from a Dusty Fingers record.

Thanks for the love Anj! ❤️

[Astounding Artifices]

This is really cool Lib! I like the contrast of the grungy guitar and the jazzy upright bass going along with the distorted bells/chimes.

It could potentially be shorter in the 1:44 to 3:00 section? which might make it hit harder for this adhd generation, but I otherwise can't think of anything haha! just speculation, but the structuring is done otherwise.

Sounds like it's ready for some ryhmes! :D

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Thanks Anj!

[How Dark is the Ocean?]

Really like the sample/drum break pairing. Very good compliment.

I'd personally add some more layers in terms of samples and refrain from adding percussive elements that are higher in the frequency range (they risk being jarring when compared to the chill as f beat they're being placed with....maybe muddying up those shakers/hats that you added later on to blend better with the break?

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Yeah, for sure. I might not go back and work on this, but thanks for the tips regardless!

[Finding My Bearings]

Nice progression! I like the drop you added with the melody switch up of the flute.

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Thanks Anj! 💜

[faeries in mistic air]

sample layering on the synth stuff you got here is great! A case where there's just enough dissonance to give it some spice. there might be some competition for frequency ranges at some parts but it works as a stylistic choice (that grungy synth that drones along in the busier sections).

Great mash up of samples and song structuring (the build up and outro are really well done imo!

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Thank you Anj!

[Dead Malls Make Great Places for Massacres]

I like the contrast of the up beat drum break and the dissonant samples, creates a beautiful vibe! Super easy to vibe with! Mix is on point!

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Thanks Anj! <3
