Anjovi's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Help Me!]

Sounds really good, though I wonder if it'd benefit from dialing the volume of the sound effects back a bit. I'd be tempted to suggest some heavy reverb and widening of them to, but that's just more personal taste i think.

libbyshimmz responds:

Yeah, I feel you on the SFX. Originally, they were on the same effects channel that the horns and keys are on, but I bussed them through the gtrspill channel and turned them up late in the post-production phase. I wonder if they'd sound better the way I had them...

Thanks for the love Anj!

[Beam Me Up]

Really reminds me of quasimoto (particularly of that beat that sampled fantastic planet). This track just has that extra layer of sampling and progression in it to give it more atmosphere.

great flow as usual!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

that shit is tripppy
Thanks brotha

[Pearl]

Nice man! Could picture this one being on one of those lofi and chill mixes. Just opts for more of a snappy kick/snare. Great sample/live blend.

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Yeah I did almost tag it Lo-Fi, since I filtered the hi-hat in that lofi type of way.

[Killing Floor]

Very atmospheric piece! Had me sitting there like "all this needs is some horns....Oh there they are lol"

Otherwise, really digging the mix overall!

libbyshimmz responds:

Thanks Anj! 😁

[shores]

Love the murky/spooky palette here. Those dissonant chords fit so well with those samples! Also manages to hit that right amount of bounce.

Sounds like someone getting lost in their thoughts and hallucinating while staring out at the sea haha!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

fanks

[Akira Yamaoka - Null Moon (recreation)]

Nice work! The instruments all vibe well together (great sound selection and mixing!) Got us here just vibing out to this on some lazy Saturday morning stuff.

libbyshimmz responds:

Thanks Anj!

[Gek rap]

let out a woooh at the end! lmao! Really owning the beat on this one. The beat, content, and flow fit together perfectly!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Thank ya sir!

[Humbird]

Damn! I really like this one! Has this nice overtly dark feel, but this charm that kind of evokes a child-like innocence (might just be reminding me of snes games like zelda in those murky woods or something) if that makes sense. Stupidly good!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Makes sense to me. Dziękuję!

[I Know a Spot]

Bitchin!!!

Such a good sample and your drums are sick as fuck! The glitchy aesthetic on them work really well.

Got my face like "EWWWWwwww!!!"

libbyshimmz responds:

I've been waiting for a review from you for years Anj! Thanks for the love and the Follow!

[The Wonder]

On point like always man! Like a D'Angelo or Georgia Anne Muldrow; a neo-soul imo. I enjoyed the story, when listening it's easy to get lost in the entirety of the production, lyrical acrobatics, and singing, etc. but when you listen to it enough, the lyrics start emerging and you get this cool-ass atmospheric story.

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Thanks man ✌️
