J-CORE SLi//CER Technique (AutotelicBrown) [8/10]
Artist: J-CORE SLi//CER -- Perms: OK

- 22.157: single missing note for a vocal sample
- 23.715/23.830: some 16ths here?
- 45.580: this is a bit straining on the left-hand, given the 260 BPM 16ths; you’ve done generally good distributing patterns up until this
- 57.580: also pretty rough, even moreso than 45.580 because you actually have to strain earlier than that pattern
- 59.138: feel like this is a ghost
- 1:03.407: also feels like a ghost note, this one moreso than 59.138
- 1:03.695: poly is a bit unnecessary here, given that the buzz actually starts on the 16th note and there’s nothing else to generalize that rhythm; you could likely get away with a 32nd blip here
- 1:26.080: given that you’re starting another 4-measure phrase here, and one that actually removes the triples for the snares, it might be good to remove this for consistency’s sake
- 1:30.349: aha. Appreciate it; thankfully it’s not necessary to do this anymore!
- 1:39.984/1:40.215/1:41.138/etc: barely audible at normal rate, might be better to exclude them
- 2:24.542: **SIGHS VERY FUCKING LOUDLY**
- chart’s pretty good overall.

Nhelv (Qrrbrbirbel) [4/10]
Artist: Silentroom -- Perms: OK (BOF)

- nice “uwu”
- 14.975: ghost note
- 20.518: this minijack is a lot rougher than it should be as a result of the layering choices
- 21.968: losing the kicks before we get out of the phrase? strange choice.
- 33.908 to 39.707: lots of situations where repeated jumps are accommodating for two different instruments, indicating a relevance of some sort that doesn’t quite exist
- 33.226/etc: not all of these jumps are placed correctly for what you’re following
- 39.707/etc: the power of the kicks and other percussion basically wash out any potential sound that would be playing as 32nds here and there’s nothing really worth putting a massive stream for
- 44.284: incorrect rhythms
- 45.165 to 1:06.998: in general, the jump usage and patterning is quite erratic; there are some instances of colliding jumps for the purpose of accenting two consecutive 16th kicks but other times the jumps are either separated, or not even covering both instances when nothing else is around -- additionally some of the bursts in here don’t accent anything prominent and there’s nothing to accommodate for the rhythms chosen
- 47.553/etc: a lot of unclear jumps here; having these jumps kinda kills off your accenting of snares as triples
- 51.391: this pattern’s pretty gross at this speed; staircases at 351 BPM are a bit over the top
- 54.973: missing jump
- 55.655: ^
- 59.550: what’s with the poly-trill here?
- 1:04.269: what do these 12ths follow?
- 1:07.765/1:21.411/etc: other instances of this background percussion are represented as 3 notes, so having it as 5 notes here is inconsistent (this pattern is also pretty rough on top of it)
- 1:11.859: not sure what the minijack is for here
- 1:17.232: the sample you’re using for the minijacks doesn’t start right on the 4th note so this mini-jack is technically incorrect
- 1:18.596: not sure about this 32nd rhythm at all
- 1:39.747: this section, up until the 32nds at 1:45.205
- 2:03.285: improper placement of jumps
- 2:14.201: ow?
- 2:14.884: missing jump
- the structure in this is pretty rough; lots of overstepping at times and inconsistencies in others

Nhelv (Wind0ze & Deamerai) [6/10]
Artist: Silentroom -- Perms: OK (BOF)

- 31.723: all other instances of this sound actually have a pronounced kick, while this is a bit more hidden and ducked in the background - might be better as two singles instead
- 34.214: one of these two notes in the mini-jack should be moved as there’s two distinct pitches there
- 45.212/45.298: some more notes for that remnant sound you’re following
- 46.243: first set minijacks?
- 57.412: there are instances of this sound that aren’t accommodated for with minijacks (49.164, 50.625, 53.374, etc); add them wherever it’s not intrusive to do so, or remove them here
- 1:07.637 to 1:29.632: structure in this section is not very good here; numerous jumps are either missing or are in improper spots for expected accents, and there’s even a missing triple for a snare as well (1:10.730)
- 1:13.135: if you’re going to accent the chimes, you need triples at 1:11.073, 1:11.761, 1:12.448, etc. Remove this triple.
- 1:35.818: missing note for chime/melody
- 1:50.252: a bit of an underwhelming dismount, don’t you think?
- 2:02.453: you don’t cut the minijack short anywhere else and those minijacks collide into triples as well
- 2:07.522: missing jump according to your structure
- 2:21.870 to 2:24.620: jump usage gets a little wonky here
- 2:24.620: this abrupt 32nd -> 24th burst doesn’t really correspond to anything noticeable
- the better of the two versions, but I don’t think either version is queue-worthy, honestly

Rain (psychoangel691) [7/10]
Artist: Astronaut -- Perms: OK (label)

- 2.618/2.849: flip these notes for PR purposes
- 12.541/12.772: these as well
- 21.310: moving these two Ls to D frees up the L to only accent the finger snaps
- 27.310: move the D to L, and the subsequent L to D
- 29.618: add jump for cymbal crash for a better accent
- 35.387/38.349/etc: attach the jump to the L to accent the two kicks properly; this happens a few other times in the second verse as well - easy fixes
- 44.387: see 29.618
- 1:00.426: ghost note, bass plays only three notes (you do this correctly at 1:07.464, for example)
- 1:03.656: missing note for synth
- 1:24.772: given that this chart appears to be actively trying to control difficulty, this particular pattern is quite a bit more difficult than any of the others given that you start on a minijack -- it might be a bit easier if the minijack is moved to L instead; also, why is this particular instance of the growling bass a trill?
- 1:28.695 to 1:43.464: this section is really good; definitely memorable to a mid-level player
- 1:29.272: missing note
- 1:30.195/1:30.426: missing notes
- 1:34.118/etc: more missing notes, there are a few others peppered about in this section that can be filled in
- last drop appears to be a direct derivative of an earlier pattern, so missing notes apply again
- a point to think about, but not a required change: the chart may be a bit more visually effective if you can add colored effects to the less defined rhythms (like the growling basses) - the reason why I say this is because the actual rhythms of the song are 16th notes and the growls are also being represented as 16ths, so adding that coloring will separate things out a bit
- chart has a solid structure overall, just needs a bit of a tune up in terms of melodic representation and it’ll be good to go

Trap Funk (Matthia) [8/10]
Artist: Andrew Huang -- Perms: OK

- 0.765: missing note for bass
- 1.177: I’ll let this pass given that the pitch bending exit is in the right spot, but the note that causes this bend starts at 1.040 - just a heads up.
- 3.375: this is a correct placement for the pitch bend
- 5.160: same as 1.177, including the pitch bend
- 21.918: nasty tail of a pattern here
- 26.313: ^
- 52.691: move this note from U to R, that way the two repeating Ls coming up have a bit more accenting power
- 59.554: ^
- 1:00.103: move to D to prevent any sort of connection with the previous or upcoming notes
- 1:03.537: rhythm is two 16ths, then the five 32nds
- 1:11.504/etc: these triples create a minor mini-jack at the start of each sequence that technically isn’t correct in terms of pitch relevance, but it’s a very minor thing in this case anyway
- 1:27.988 to 1:36.779: the issue that I have with this is not the color gimmick itself (which is wacky as fuck but we won’t pick on that), but rather the presentation of the 32nds in the color gimmick -- the sound that you indicate you’re following for this is vocals but they’re barely audible for the first four measures, which make it seem a bit strange at the start of the sequence
- 1:36.275: missing note (should be orange)
- 1:54.178: this is a pretty constrained pattern having a three 12th note jack like this
- 1:58.070: missing jump? You had these as all jumps earlier when it was presented
- this file is silly, in a good way; rather technical at times, a respectable challenge; layering is heavy but the effects are applied effectively and consistently
- some patterns can be cleaned up slightly but overall this is a very unique file
