Los Angeles (Tim Ismag Remix) (basicdrummerman&Lights) [6/10]

PERMS OK
SYNC OK

54.216-55.073: This vocal abstraction makes for pretty bad contrast with the drop. Just keep it single notes to the vocals. Same applies to 2:33.644.

59.680: Noticeably incorrect PR here.

1:08.787: Just picking this random example. Here this specific 32nds roll abstraction goes to the bass-y wub, but just preceding it are Also 32nds rolly abstractions going to the high pitched wubs. There's a fair bit of that in the chart and it makes some parts feel a bit too homogeneous.

1:09.537: 16th here, so no 24ths abstraction. Same for 1:54.109.

1:11.358: Odd to have a long 4321 type roll, doesn't follow PR.

1:13.180: 16th here, this iteration differs from others. Applies to 1:57.751 too.

1:38.466: 16th here.

1:40.930: Here this 4th isn't the same PR as the rest of the jack.

This desperately needs a cut; nothing new is brought in the second half which makes it feel like a copy paste essentially. There's plenty of distinct sections in the first half to make it a decent 2:15 (approx) chart without making it musically weird. Aside from the errors, the general abstraction approach is a bit overdone; a Lot of distinct sounds play like the same rolly patterns despite the wubs offering a good amount of variety. As is, the mix of the abstractions concern plus the repetitive second half is too much for an FR unfortunately. Definitely has good potential for a resub after fixes though.

Los Angeles (Tim Ismag Remix) (basicdrummerman & Lights) [7/10] [Fixes Required]

- Perms, metadata, sync are good

Intro-0.537 - Arguably not audible enough

9.664 - Consistency, should be 3? Compare 8.358

11.787 - Consistency, should be a different column

54.216-54.966 - Very vague dump approach. It's also not synced correctly with "ready"

**59.144-59.358 & 59.573-59.787 - Those bursts are quite difficult to execute because of the 3 note anchors, suggest changing this

**1:11.358-1:12.216 - Copy pasted from 57.644-58.501 even though the wubs are different between these segments. Give it a different representation

**1:13.073-1:13.930 - ^

^ **As a whole the 2nd section is copy pasted, at least do the decency of shifting placements / revise sections that sound slightly different from the first section. Change other iterations of this as well accordingly

1:43.716-1:43.930, etc - See 59.144-59.358

2:06.216-2:06.644 - Oof

2:31.501 - Jump? While I get you couldn't do a hand at the previous 4th because of the streams, consistency wise should be a jump

3:01.501 - Ghost note. Additionally the next 8th note is off-sync

3:53.787 - See 2:31.501

This file kinda reminds me of Vantablack in nature. I can fuck with it, however the main meat of the file is not super pleasant (very awkward to play), inaccurately copy-pasted throughout (as described in notes) and as a result needs a cleanup. It's spread out to the entire file, so this needs revision through all of them. If you allow yourself to smooth this up a bit, it can be good to go. FR on ** notes
