Anjovi's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cyclone]

love the drums in the mix and how the samples tuck behind and float above them. Works well here :D Great soundscaping! Kinda has this Dj Muggz level to it but still has that industrial/emo (probably butchering genre references, but it's all i got lmao!) sound to it.

Great job LIbby!

libbyshimmz responds:

Thanks Anj!

Yeah, butchered them right up, haha.

I have been listening to a lot of Cypress Hill lately... 🤷🏻‍♀️

[BAD TIMEƵ (Artist: Grafezzy)]

Right on man! grats on the front page :D
Like the sounds you got going, and Grafezzy's sounding good. Nice crisp vocals!

[On My Own (Falling Down)]

While it's not as strong as your other tracks (I'm more into the sample canvases, with all these different things mixing together *galaxy brain mode engaged*), it gets the job done. Like I can hear one of those popular youtube rappers doing a thing on here and making it work.

Yeah, not really much of a critique. I could picture someone scooping it up though. Mix is sounding nice to me.

[x HOLY x MANA x]

Dig this man! Love these types of beat (mystical sample + upbeat drum break :D)

[Strawberry TreeƵ by Anjovi ft. (D.M.N.J.Ƶ)]

I dig it! Like an acid peak haha! Kinda nice how it rounds out some of the high end frequencies (kind of went a bit heavy on that in my latest project it seemed xD).

GhostlyDoobies responds:

hell yeah, i like all of it. i know what you mean... it does have like a acid-boombap style to it. and it do sounds good, nicely sung i mean.

[One Hour Backwards]

haha! for some reason ng didn't put this one in my feed >.<

Bang on! Synths guitars and vocals blend as beautifully as I've heard from your recent output. Structurally, it works great as well. It doesn't come off as repetitive and that singing does a great job of giving little flourishes here and there.

Great choice for Aesop chops. Honestly could see him on this beat and i'd admittedly dig it more than alot of the beats he chooses.

libbyshimmz responds:

I would be honored if Mister Bavits spit over this. I wonder what he would think of it, or the fact that I've adopted his bars for hooks at least 5 times now.

Thanks for the love! I'll get around to fuckin' with that a capella you sent me this afternoon too!

[no one tags trains no mo']

A nice addition to the world of abstract hiphop! Really digging the mix of the samples (that guitar panning in on the right adds some nice space to the whole thing.

While at times, it's got me pining for some additional sample for some strings/flutes/horns or something, the beat holds together real good as is.

Great job Libby!

libbyshimmz responds:

Thanks Anj!

[blood romance]

Awesome man! The only thing i could nitpick on is the horn being a bit loud, it's the only thing stopping me from blasting the volume with this haha!
