Libby-Shimmz's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hallow]

I love the way you progressed the piano in. While I was hoping, seeing as it's so close to halloween, that this would be darker and broody while also being tinged with melancholia. As it stands on its own though, I approve wholeheartedly.

Well done B!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Yeah in the past I've done some really eerie halloween theme tracks, I haven't felt the spooky this time. As always thanks for listening

[Two Fall Leaves]

Doope Zoo!

I dig that geetar.

The shuffled beat is lovely.

Lotta autumn vibez.

The harp is soothing.

Where is the dialogue from?

5/5 10/10

Xorberax responds:

Thanks my man!

[-HDC- Ghosts On Da Beat]

This could really use a lyric sheet, especially for the hook. That shit is straight unintelligible. Also, the bandpassed vocals after Mao's verse around 1:50 needed to be replayed in order to be heard.

Digging that Sun's supplied a verse to this. It's been far too long since I've heard him spit over anything. Does he still use the Cut-up alias?

Mao's cadence has enormously improved since I heard him spit last. Kudos Mickey!

Never heard of TRE before, where would someone go to find more of his raps?

Breaker, not too familiar with his work, I need to quit slackin'.

All in all, top notch work, love the ad-libs, shit's too hot!

HDC responds:

This (was) a test. Play this record as frequently as possible. Then as it becomes easier for you, play the record once a day, or as needed.

[Nectarr]

Dank! Fresh! Nikes!

This is smoove mang.

B-RadGfromOV responds:

Thanks dude, I like how the drums came out on this, it's hit or miss sometimes.

[Fight Against Your Beliefs]

[R4R]

I highly enjoy the buildup towards the drums that pop up at ~1:10 and onward, but the drums themselves sound kind kind of weak and I think they need some additional mixing in order for them to not be as drowned out by the other elements of thus piece.

The guitar is nice, is that synthesized or played live?

The synth work as well as the pads are highly soothing and enjoyable.

All in all though, I enjoy this piece.

4/5 9/10

MysteriousPresence responds:

Thanks for the review ! =)
Yeah I think I should have compressed the drums a little bit more ! ^^
No, I'm afraid this is synthesized ! I actually never learnt how to play any instrument ! X)
Thanks again !

[Despair]

Nice! Where is the dialogue from?

EdKempeper responds:

[Sitting On The Fence]

Dooope trak Zoo! Those subtle scratches are ill! I love the vocal chops as well.

Xorberax responds:

Thanks my dude!

[-Edge of Existence-]

Clear as a bell!

Dope ish Teq!

Teqneek responds:

Good, thanks man. I sent you that file for sampling too btw just in case yo ass aint seen it yet.

[Edge of Existence]

Dooope!

I love the wordplay in this track, lots of metaphors while also being highly personal.

Is Jonathan a reference to one of your brothers or is it your name?

As Rampant said, the vocals could be a tad bit better mixed, sometimes the words are almost swallowed up, but i can still hear them clearly, almost muddy though, hard to describe, lol.

Keep up banging out these hawt jams Teq!

5/5 9/10

[Rays]

I looove the snare in the break, so mellow!

This whole chune is warm, yet cool.

Keep it up B!

B-RadGfromOV responds:

thanks M, or rather LS
