Libby-Shimmz's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Line Of Coke And A Blunt]

This would fit very well in the Drum 'n Bass category. I hear an old-skool jungle vibe inside this monster.

I love the bitcrushing on this.

5/5 10/10

[Trapped In Circus]

This isn't bad.

It's not great either.

This needs some sort of change-up like a hook or a b-section.

The same melody used all the way throughout the track gets real old real fast.

If you'd like some pointers feel free to check out my tracks and leave me a pm or twelve.

I'll give this a 6/10 for effort.

Keep at it man!

Practice makes perfect!

~NGHH~

[Forest Of Desolation]

This is very awesome.

I love the celtic flute.

It fits very well with the rest of the track.

The guitar was a nice touch.

The vocals are what really got me though.

Did you record them or sample them from a library?

Excellent work man!

5/5 10/10

Mattashi responds:

Thanks man!
The guitar is the only thing I played and recorded.
The flutes and most of the percusions are from Forest Kingdom 2 by Eduardo Tarilonte oh and the vocal is from Shevannai :)

[Dawn]

The first 30 seconds of this made me think of the orchestral pieces in Timesplitters.

Great piece you have here.

I don't have much else to say about this.

5/5 10/10

samulis responds:

Lol, thanks dude. Glad you liked it. :)

[Rapture]

Almost perfect.

I love the synth sounds you've got here.

Especially the Arp in the background at about 1:40ish.

The Synth at 2:40 is killer too.

Very ol-skool trancey with the synths here Pyro.

As far as the Bass, it's ok.

I don't much care for growlers.

I'm all about the low-end classic wobbles.

The snare's reverse sound is meh.

Overall, a great track.

4/5 8/10

[To Dust]

This that boom bap, ya'll be looking dumb, ya'll be like what the fuck is that?
This be the godfather of trap minus the rap, so sit down and take a look,
at the weather map, these the facts, better than that dope shit chillin' in ya mama's sack.
Breaking your back, put it on a train track and send it to Iraq,
In a mothafuckin' body bag, oh shit you got lag, why you on the plane dummy?
I told you to stay the fuck off that since if you did I'd be clawing my way outta ya momma's tummy.

Yummy, that's the easter shit I got you last year, I think I had 8 beers and shed a million tears,
This is all of what I got, my sister's unborn ashes lay in a pot in a corner on a cot, but I want you all to stop.

BOULLIE responds:

lemme know if you tryna record thooooooo

[Star Charts]

I feel like the horn Sample repeats way too much. Get some variation in the mix man. Sample a hook, some Keys..... Just something to change it up, ya know? I liked how it almost changed up at 1:53, but then you just psyche us out! (love that sound at 1:58 that transitions back to the beat)

I understand this is a Sample Battle so I can see where you were coming from. The length of the beat just begs the listeners to stay tuned for the change-up, which sadly doesn't do much besides fuck with our heads.

I love the Sample work though. Great job on flipping it.

4/5 8/10

BOULLIE responds:

Maybe I shouldn't have put instrumental. The sample battle beats we do end up being used by emcees so the loop is necessary, cause I hate it when people just punch through the choruses -_-

I do need work on my arrangement tho, this is beyond true.

It'll get better, good looks on the honesty, I need more of that in my life lol
