Stalagmite's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[VAT Project]

ENGLISH! YOU LIKE TO DRINK TEA!

hello. To express yourself properly, it helps to properly act with all limbs and facial expressions, for sounds emitted through the mouth, are also influenced by the shape of the face (obviously people jut their jaw and tighten their lips). Thus... to sum it up. your body language talks too. we should hear it.
Also, try portraying many emotions. anger, joy, resent, jealousy, sadness. this is all merely good practice.
You are good. definately. because i really thought two people where talking together. well done.
P.S. i too am available for voice acting. (if you have cute chibby characters or animals LOL) check out my voice demo if you want. :D

[2007 Voice Acting Demo Real]

well done. truly impressed

[Mesh]

you need new instruments.

i just heard your newer song. Where the faires play.
this sounds very similar. try using better instruments. Their is nothing wrong melodically or harmony with this piece. although its structure is a bit weak. wel. keep it up. i look forward to hearing a song you have really worked hard on. (please let me know matey) :D

Zakuga responds:

Totally will once i get a program on my comp for music. These are made with a phone when i bored. But i promise ill make something better :3

[Where the fairies play]

hmmm..

the piece may have had more effect if i could hear it over the hi hats "swish and ting"
i kind of got the idea. but i dont think you thought it through. well done for trying. and keep working on it. you clearly have an understanding of musical structure and chords. Just practice executing your knowledge into actual song form. well done though.

Zakuga responds:

Yeah i did this on a phone music maker. So i really wasnt expecting much

[give me a name if you wish :)]

MORE ADVICE

i will give you a break too. and vote 10. and 5/5. this is because you are new and need some support. however, I must emphasise you take in and fully absorb all the information that the reviewer below (mkie nedachi) has said. Newgrounds people are very responsive, in a bad way. They say what they think. and they WONT be gentle. post music that you are SURE is worth the time of someone listening too. If you are not sure about a song. Dont post it. Ask someone else on NG to listen to it privately. then ask them for how to improve.
I myself am a musician too. and i understand basic musical structure, harmonics and melodics. though you have no idea what they are, you should find out. As you dont just need to understand your FL studios, to make good music. You need ot understand music itself.
please PM me for any info you may need. :D

P.S. your music needs improvement.
it has several riffs playing out of key to eachother, and clashes.
I do like the beat though.
Try adding more DIFFERENT things to it.
whether they be instruments, NEW riffs or a new rhythm.
Well done on your first try. and look after your self here.

Thoraxglycerin responds:

Will do it, too! :D

[Ghost Cakes]

used for what?

i do not deny this is an unusual instrument...effect... i dont know lol.
and i am sure if you made this sound, you are technically quite good. I look forward to seeing an actual song being made out of this. but i am disapointed someone has posted up a single looped riff. i would love to hear the final version. but not half a % of it. please tell me when you have completed this. I will gladly listen matey.
Thanks alot. P.S. your synth is wicked.

[A Peaceful Interlude]

it was right in front of me! lol

QUITE A CLASSICAL PIECE. i was whining that you should try produciing a classical piece. but this is lovely. and will suffice for me.
I love it. I love it i love it. SO unusual. and weirdly appropriate for odd games.
Your use of that Oriental instrument is great. I love it all. It reminds me a bit of spyro the dragon. :D JOLLY GOOD SHOW! very impressed. More layers are always a good thing. It could be thickened out a bit more with other instruments. (obviously fitting to the other instruments.) well done mr scientist! 10/10 5/5. and Favourited

SFaPiL2 responds:

Thank you very much :o).

I have to admit this was one of my newest creations, therefore it was a little more refined than my usual old submittions. However, it wasn't too serious because I didn't have enough time to create it [ I was supposed to study for an exam ;o) ].

Thank you VERY much for the awesome scores + favourite!

[Revolutionary Physics]

everything is great! excluding the tamberine...

tamberines are the oldest trick in the dance book. and they are awful LOL. next it is claps though. so avoid those to. :D

Anyways! i love this piece. If it had no tamberines, it would be in my favourites. seriously.
I love your synths. and your harmonics in this piece are truly epic. Veyr unusual. VERY sci fi! you have some good ideas. none the less I am still waiting for you to produce a classical piece!

SFaPiL2 responds:

LOL. Yeah, I must agree. When I heard this song after a few days I noticed a few problems and one of these was that the tamberine had NOTHING to do with Sci-Fi.

"you have some good ideas" :
Thanks! The problem is that what I have in mind sometimes seems pretty cool, but then I have problems in creating it EXACTLY. Maybe one day I'll be able to ;o).
