TC_Halogen - 7/10
- offset is good
- layering is a bit confusing; it seems like triples are to be used for kicks and piano notes, but some lone kicks that don’t have anything preventing use of heavier layerings seem to ignore it
- burst usage could be improved but it’s nothing that’s exceedingly glaring at normal rate aside from a few that seem quite fast compared to the sound they’re accenting
- 2:20.824 is an extremely abrasive burst coming after a mini-jack and it’s tough to avoid damage as a result
- plays better than it looks; might be workable?

Wiosna - 7/10
6.369 - burst doesn't really fit here
7.733 - i think you should have a double here at least for the snare
10.869 - would probably make this a 4 (to create a OH minitrill instead), but this is understandable. i'd probably beef up the minijacks that go to consecutive snares by including a double though
13.324 - similar logic to 10.869
18.028 - i think a split jumptrill would work here instead, very different timbre from percussion
19.051 - i don't think the burst here works because of how light the buzz is, maybe a 24th burst might be better?
20.960 - that should not be a minijack
21.642 - better off as a 24th burst until the 16th i think
23.006 - what is this stream going to?
24.369/24.778 - bursts are really hard given how light the buzzes are, would suggest toning them down
28.187 - ^
34.051/34.460/34.733 - ^
38.551 - ^, you get the idea at this point
1:00.233 - i think flams would be more appropriate than a 32nd burst here, the bass wobbles are only strong for a very short period of time
1:04.733 - i think 16ths would be more appropriate here instead given that the timbre here is so different from the 24th bass kicks
1:14.824 - same as 23.006

The rest of the chart seems to be plagued with more or less the same issues of the bursts being way too much, but a very good portion of the chart is solid outside of that, even when the song progresses. The layering is very solid for the most part, and the patterns are very fair and pretty fitting barring the bursts. Unfortunately the bursts do take a significant portion of the chart, so I don't feel comfortable giving this an accept. That said, the changes to this, while are a bit significant, are easily doable, and the chart itself is pretty good as is, so I'm very willing to CQ this.

Nerfed/reworked like 90+% of the bursts, removed extraneous minijacks. Minor layering changes to emphasize crashes/abrasive kicks over piano layering. Attempted to apply the vast majority of April's comments but a couple of them (notably the split jtrill suggestion) just didn't feel right to me.
