September 2015 set 1

Re: 2015 September/October Set 1

Bohemian Chic
9.5/10
Difficulty: 41

This would be a great song to help people practice with various skills and improve them. It's got a number of interesting patterns in it and is manageable with the reasonable bpm of the song.

Ershkigal
10/10
Difficulty: 62

Very fun high octane chart with some moderately challenging jumps, though nothing too crazy to trip people up. One of my favorite types of charts, a consistent difficulty that keeps up my focus through and through.

Jews 1 Oppressors 0
9/10
Difficulty: 42

Fun file with quite a decent amount of diversity throughout it, though the most challenging part is only the second small section of the chart really. I did find it enjoyable and fitting to the music though.

Machines
9/10
Difficulty: 30

About as fun as such an easy song gets, and the song was pretty nice on top of that. Good use of jumps in particular, as I didn't feel any were too inappropriate, though the quad might be questionable.

[8.5/10] Bohemian Chic {Chelp} (hi19hi19)
• 6.515 - 8.002: Pitches these (2)s are going to is pretty faint so it’s hard to tell, but I think that there’s a pitch change not only on the sound happening on (1), but (2) as well. Playing along, it feels like the (2)s from 7.461 - 8.002 could be on (3)
• 11.515 & 11.785: Could both be shifted a column to the right so that 11.785 and 12.056 aren’t the same
• 12.731: Ghost note if you’re only layering flute here
• 19.623 - 20.434: Patterning could be changed slightly to still follow PR but not make the last 4 descending notes just a 3-4-3-4 trill
• 54.488 - 54.894: Same as 19.623, but now it’s 4 ascending notes being done as just a 2-3-2-3 trill
• 75.299: No accented piano here like the jumps surrounding it, probably should just be a single
• 135.249 - 135.654: Same as 75.299
• 145.789 - 147.345: Same as 6.515 - 8.002

[9/10] Ereshkigal {ABE3} (hi19hi19)
• 40.068: 39.893 has same sound but just a jump, why is this a hand?
• 58.556: Pretty sure these 32nds are ghost notes, I don’t hear anything here
• 64.137: Same thing as above with these 32nds
• 93.440: Missing jump
• 95.533, 96.230: Same

[9/10] Jews 1, Oppressors 0 (Avinu Malkein0wned) {Jake Kaufman} (hi19hi19)
• 76.133: Ghost note
• 145.470 - 160.693: Seems like jumps are going to strings in places like 160.693 or 160.162, but missing at 150.854 or 151.426
• Laughing really hard at the ending because of how discordant the piano is.

[8*/10] Machines {Crown the Empire} (DarkZtar)
• Community review mentioned needing a large offset, but it must’ve just been a conversion error for the engine, as the sync is fine
• 0 - 39.147: I think I see what you were doing here with the jumps in this build-up, but it the beginning of the build-up is weird because of it; jumps at 6.608 or 10.300 seem out of place because the note just after them is the same sound but they’re singles.
• 42.377: Cymbal here doesn’t warrant a jump as much as what you’ve layered as jumps surrounding it. Jump to only faint cymbal happens several more times like at 46.070 or 49.762
• 84.839: No jumptrill here like previously done for these drums
• 92.685 - 118.531: Same issue as 0 - 39.147; can’t tell what jumps are to in the start of this section, not only for percussion but they don’t seem to go to the vocals either, at least until a bit more of the build-up happens and then the jumps look normal.
• 129.262: Missing jump
• 150.031: Missing note
