Yup this file...

I think it's pretty obvious that at the least, it's 60 or below. Addict was the previous D4 chart, and the cutoff for that 5-0-0-1. The cutoff for this is currently 4, and we're not even halfway through the week.

Preliminaries aside there's really nothing in this file that is even particularly difficult to hit. Aside from a few 24th bursts here and there, all of which are very short and flow nicely, there's nothing at all that's even VC level.

There are a few grace notes in the slower first half that may frustrate, but even...Throwing Fire (a 50) and Off World Colony (a 49) for eg has more brutal colours than that, so that's not really a good excuse at all.

Some files by way of comparison:

Adult's Sketchbook is a 59. There is a rather fearsome little spiky 24th section in the middle not to mention a whole lot of colours everywhere. Cosmic Orchestra is 60 and it is far harder than Yellow Leaves, seeing that it's very intense for a file of that range, while Yellow Leaves is chill and the rage-inducing spots are far and few between.

Prism is 57 and the bursts in it are a lot more brutal than Yellow Leaves. Have a play of the two files: Prism's second half, esp. that one burst is far harder than anything from Yellow Leaves.

The only reason why Yellow Leaves could be considered a VC is its length, but even that is not really a good excuse - it's not really long enough (~3:15) for that to become a real factor in elevating its difficulty rating.

So...yeah.
