polyrhythms everywhere, sorry if that one transition is too hard, I attempted to dial it back some.

- Sync is fine
- 1.729, 5.263, 7.246: not sure why you're breaking the 16th anchors here
- 10.263: on the other hand, this 8th should be moved off the 16th anchor
- 2.505, 13.359: the melody doesn't continue to here; you place a lot of stress on accenting it (which you should imo) and that would be far more effective if you clean up extraneous notes on the same columns when they're going on, e.g. the two aforementioned timestamps could both be [23] jumps. Keep an eye out for this later too, e.g. 129.401.
- 15.493: this is cute patterning though, nice job on that
- 21.614: lil surprised not to see a burst here
- 25.608: higher than the previous jump
- 28.625, 31.729, 122.419, 147.591: these are 3/96ths starting from the preceding 24th
- 28.884: check pr
- 34.746, 150.608: was patterned more effectively at e.g. 19.574 imo
- 38.194: missing note
- 39.343, 53.166: no idea what this is for. it makes a lot more sense at 42.131. 106.815 is another example that works.
- 44.229: three consecutive notes on column 3 to distinct sounds; recommend moving the hand around
- 54.919: could have this as a hand tbh
- 55.608: on the other hand (heh), this shouldn't be a hand; this is just the melody which you have as a single at 55.953 & a drum which you have as a single at 56.125
- 59.174: not sure about this 8th collision
- 63.194: higher than the next jump
- 66.470: there's a bit more nuance to the melody's PR than you're giving it starting about here; i understand this might be for clarity of structure, but play around with it
- 78.970: take a look at other areas with similar sounds to this e.g. 80.350. This is one of the only spots where it's done correctly.
- 78.367, 79.143, 81.901: confused about these jumps
- 79.488: you use a 3/16th anchor for accenting starting here, but it continues behind this as well; move stuff around
- 80.694: not the same as previous jump, switch up pr
- 83.769, 125.493: 3/96ths; see 28.625
- 87.677: move off column 1 since this muddies the 3/16th anchor you had going
- 94.488, 97.246: make consistent with 39.343 (16th makes sense for bass though)
- 94.919: remove jump
- 102.505: this is pretty spiky (maaaybe also the previous poly 24th)
- 104.746: missing 8th
- 106.298: recommend breaking up column 1 anchor here
- 106.758: missing 12th
- 108.338: another problematic iteration of this sound. refer to 106.815 again for a good example.
- 108.970, 109.919, 116.758, 121.988: missing notes
- 120.263: break up this column 3 anchor somewhere
- 121.556: this is a 24th triplet starting at the 4th, not a 16th
- 125.781: lower than 125.436
- 127.936: this just sounds like 32nds to me
- 150.091: Beyond here, the file is very similar to stuff earlier on, and has very similar issues; refer to that for analogous notes.

- Definitely the beginnings of a fun and interesting polyrhythm file, but the chart has a very busy structure that requires a lot of care to make work, and unfortunately it's just not there yet. This needs significant polishing, but it'll definitely shine once that's done.

Thanks for notes. Already fixed the file. Could technically re-submit since batch is still open, but iirc rules on rejects are that it will have to wait until next batch, so yeah.

There's some stuff here I agree with (mainly missing notes/jump usage, some PR), some stuff I didn't touch though, like I'm not going to step 96ths at 174bpm, it's too fast and will cause frame issues/readability errors. There's some level of reducing elsewhere in the file (pointing at note 127.936), which upon re-visiting, those are 64ths. Scaled it down to 48ths to maintain their starting position (on the 16th).

Some general cleanup elsewhere in the file as well, since 2nd half used 32nds instead of 48ths in places, so those were changed for consistency.
