Freedom Call (Storn42) [8.5/10]

PERMS OK
SYNC OK

1:44.017: What is this for? It's so random.

2:18.457: No idea what this goes to.

2:18.768-2:22.905: This buildup, while consistent with the rest of the layering, is slightly underwhelming for what is the climax of the song.

2:40.276: Would really suggest keeping this flam motif until the end, it's still very audible and suddenly not playing it feels odd.

Pretty straightforward chart all around with fun motifs and unique color theory to keep that slow intro interesting. The difficulty curve is a bit eh given that it takes quite a long time (1:53) to reach the continuous handstreams which are easily the most difficult part of the chart. That being said, everything is justified musically and pretty intuitive. Great job, solid chart.

1:44.017: What is this for? It's so random.
- I think i was playing around with the idea of highlighting the word "up" here but i forgot to remove it in the final chart.

2:18.457: No idea what this goes to.
- hmm I think i just placed an extra note when patterning for some reason. removed.

2:18.768-2:22.905: This buildup, while consistent with the rest of the layering, is slightly underwhelming for what is the climax of the song.
- i'd argue this section is a step down from the chorus, so while the layering might be a little underwhelming, it not being on the same level as a chorus shouldn't be a huge issue.

2:40.276: Would really suggest keeping this flam motif until the end, it's still very audible and suddenly not playing it feels odd.
- Its kind of hard to build down the song like this while keeping the flams. Flams are just offset jumps. I think they keep going as far as they reasonably could be until the entire chart is just a single stream.

5.540-6.775/7.603-8.440/12.781-13.402 - Why the blues here? No secondary guitar here like the other blues
- the blue notes ARE the second guitar. They play the exact same notes that the first guitar did, and then the "3rd" guitar does at 0:07.199.

51.050 - Same jump pattern, but diff pitch than 50.220. Fix PR
- ositz, this is a hand. but fixed.

1:44.009 - Why white note?
- removed

1:46.492-1:49.802 - If jumps are on the pitch of the long guitar note, then 1:48.974 should be single
- 1:48.974 definitely has a guitar note.

1:57.043 - If the jumps are going to the lyrics, then the lyric “of” should be in this spot, not 1:56.836. Same issue w/ 2:10.078 & 2:10.285
- "of" lands on 1:56.836. there is no vocal here.

Assuming this is good to go since it's marked as 'Final' and both responses are 'Accepted'.
