Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

I really had fun with the D2 song, it wasnt bad, but had those annoying little white arrows.
Great start to the 8th imo

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

Retro City's a nice chart, that's all.

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

Warmish Walkin' - It was ok (both the song and chart). Can't say much about it really heh.

Swaying Sunflowers - Really enjoyed the song and the chart was nice ^^

Fire - My own chart. Out of all the files I've submitted to the batch this one had the best ratings so far for some reason.

Touch Me - Not a fan of Gunther.... chart was good though =)

Retro City - aksdjfolkuoaiusdfasdf favorite chart this round! Absolutely loved it Jesse. Song is awesome and the chart was very fun to play to it.

Pussy Pump - Don't think I'm warmed up enough to give a complete opinion on it. Song was ok and the chart was ok as well. Having a hard time with the JS for some reason but then again I'm not completely warmed up.

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

Glad to see that the comments seem to be positive on all the songs. I hope we don't run into too many file issues during this tournament.

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

Fire and Retro City are great choices for round one. I think Retro City is one of my new favorites

Round 1 thoughts:

Warmish Walkin':
Interesting but rather strange song. Pretty constant for the first round of D1, not to mention those repetitive 8th arrows that might zone out some players' accuracies. Seems to have less breaks than last year's first D1 round. Good luck to you guys!

Swaying Sunflowers:
I felt the song sounded really amateurish , oh well. The steps were stepped as expected from the song, although there was one note that missed a jump that I spotted clearly. Can't say I loved this one...

Fire:
Short song! And while more difficult than D1's and D2's of course, I really didn't think it was that difficult to shoot to a 45 (heh, what a jump from D2's song being a 24). Cool song that had more dnb to it, hence the "drum" in drumstep.

Touch Me:
My file. You can hear the full song and view the music video here. Interestingly enough, this song is a remake of Samantha Fox's original song (video here) by the same name which hit the billboards in 1987. Hope you enjoy this sexy, albeit cheesy song.

Retro City:
Wow, I really liked the song! Very glitchy with tons of choppy samples used to create this cool work of art. And the file was great too. I wonder if Razor stepped the slowdown with some sort of nod to kors k's song "D". Transitioning to that slowdown was really familiar in that sense. p.s. I love minijacks

Pussy Pump:
This is a hip hop song with a serious bipolar disorder. First half of the song has slow hip hop beats, constantly interrupted by fast breakcore sections. Then the second half is where all the tricky stuff occurs in the file. Great chart, Luis! p.s. I can't jumptrill

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

I thought Fire was a relatively difficult file. I had some issues with it.
Granted, it may just be because I suck at hitting two notes at the same time...
But that being said, it was a lot of fun to play.

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

Pussy Pump feels like it should be 2-3 points up difficulty-wise. Some of the patterns are just... what the...

Retro City (inlove)

Re: Official Tournament Round 1 Song Discussion

Oh yeah, I'll add my love to Retro City.

This is definitely my favorite file of the week. Both in song choice and chart!

I'm not one for dub-step, but holy crud was the music catchy.
