Stalagmite's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[FFIV-Overworld (orch)]

hmm....

LOL. hey, i already favourited you before you said! just told you that so you know it wasnt an obligation. i actually admire your work. :D
this is really nice. it has lost is mysterious FF feel though? perhaps that is a good thing. you have replaced the traditional feel with your own... and made this an original and different interpretation of this popular composition. :D good job> :D

Tombor911 responds:

Hehe its actually very similar to the ds version. lol but I don't usually get people on newgrounds that appreciate me. they just think I am some stupid kid that gets lucky =(

[Bigger Band]

very unusual. its very awesome. i really like this one. yo play piano alot then?
OH and you must be getting tired of my reviews by now! lol. i see your replies are getting shorter! LMFAO! you dont have to reply lol. i am just one musician admiring and helping.
good job. this really reminds me of hercules. :D oh the piano in this sounds fantastic... it cant be the same one?

Tombor911 responds:

And yes it is the same piano. just a different style of music.

[TOM - Boss Battle Theme]

um...

its alright. its appropriate for the purpose it was intended. to synthesised for my liking though. i actually think its clashy and a bit annoying. LOL. sorry!
seven stars! DUN DUN DAAA!!!
but vote 4. :D

Tombor911 responds:

hahaha dun dun Daaa thats hilarious!!! Yeah it is generic final fantasy style boss theme hahaha

[Road to Funk]

repetition?

LOL. not your music. your comments. they all say the same thing. so do most of your replies! you are quite the organised fellow eh?
This is groovy. i am really getin jiggy to this. none the less, it is a tad "over cheesed" for my liking. it is well composed and the structure is consistent and your slap bass is smart LOL.
well done! again. i knocked one off because although it is fantastically composed. it does not hold that same "x factor" as your other songs... i am not pulled into this one... i am very aware i am listeneing to music.
keep it up!

Tombor911 responds:

hehe organized...not quite hahaha yeah it is different.
and cheesy perfectly describes it.
Throw any genre at me and i will try my best!

[Just Ride!]

very western!

you can capture anything! any feel! any mood! i may challenge you one day with something unexpected! i would love to see what you can do if you really go all out!
your current music programme is fine. I used to have reason,
i feel a programme is not something which limits your learning, but rather something to enhance it. you do not need another programme. you need to perfect your current one! truly master it! not implying you cant use it.. becaus...duh... you can... excellently. i am just saying you would do well to keep in good practice of what you know.... Be a master in one thing... not a smatterer in them all.
:D:D:D some philosophy their for ya!

Tombor911 responds:

Yeah this is all true. I am going to get reason later so I can write more rock and funk and reggae tunes!

[The Temple's Heat!]

FOr crying out LOUD!

this has attitude dude! i dont like the trumpets though. ALTHOUGH the melody they play is fantastic. it is not really your fault the only preset available is a tad "shmoo" lol.
the xylos are amazing. you are capturing alot of movement and power in this piece. really exciting. certainly has the crash bandicoot feel to it... i can so see this in a game. :D keep it up! i cant wait to see your NEWEST productions in the future! you MUST keep me updated!

Tombor911 responds:

Hehe sure just favorite me as an artist bro!
Thanks for being a hardcore reviewer!

[Gerudo Valley Rock!]

oh.

i dont like this one much. noisy and dying i am afraid. SORRY! i have not been harsh up to this point....you know that, it lacks staying in the right key, that guitar is quite off. is it live though? that would explain it. even if it is live, you are very good at guitar. the ideas are their. but this is a bit of a clumsy piece. i am only disapointed because i set the bar so high after hearing your other work... perhaps this is an older song. :D:D:D
no probs. still chekin out your other stuff. :D

Tombor911 responds:

I didn't make this one my bro did. I just played the bass and guitar. He mixed it.
Yes it is a very old song!!!

[Got My Reggae On]

YOU ARE EXCELLENT!

you have the ability to be somthing great. i am telling you this as someone who can see potential.... BUT YOU! you i can FEEL potential! your exciting the vibes man!
well rockin! i wont stop till i heard all ya stuff now! you are excellent! really getting into this whole feel.
have you ever considered a career in computer game music? very popular genre in these parts LOL.

Tombor911 responds:

WOW THANKS DUDE!!! I am planning to go to berkelee school of music in boston when I am older to have a career in video game composition.
