    I appreciate it, man.

    Any ideas regarding song choice? Something that doesn't have a good chart yet and has crazy drums + a guitar solo ideally.

          also will probably inclue ntm's drum file since length is really the only issue. also a bit of flow would be nice since its rather hard to play haha. its mostly with the fast patterns leading to jumps with snares

            I tried to find a balance between flow and difficulty. If the PR was perfect there'd be a lotta insanely fast jacks. I'll go over it again though. It may be a little harder but you're right: flow should be improved despite its implications.

            *edit* Just sent the revised version. There was a huge flow issue at the end that I missed somehow.

              revious


              8bit beach dreams - aside from the freezes making no sense whatsoever, this was pretty enjoyable. decent file. accep


              day - wow noon this was pretty neat. pretty repetitive but the song is smooth and the steps are fun. accep


              spaceport alpha - as a kid, i would listen to this song in the sound test often. that aside, file lacks freezes in melodic parts. atm it seems kinda empty. the file itself is quite fun. i dont want to see an abundance of freezes, but some freezes for parts where there are sustained notes of melodies it would be nice to see some. also question consistency when transitioning away from the percussion jacks. fix dis and ill accep


              warmen dump solo - haha still hate the length but it flows much better. light accep

                I was initially too preoccupied with PR at low speeds that I neglected it's 1x rate PR, which ultimately is all that matters.

                Also, I'd make it longer but the difficulty disparity would be massive and destroy the file.

                  Re: XOON 4 submissions open

                  thought that I might as well post reviews here as well since not everyone is on bluexoon

                  (Kommisar) Fermion
                  How to make jumpstream with replay value. Accepted.

                  (TranceCore) Holy Humilliation
                  Pretty ok file though the hands and freezes irked me. Not much replay value. Rejected.

                  (N.T.M.) Bodom Beach Terror
                  Awesome rainbow guitar solo. Accepted.

                  (TranceCore) Bullet of Death (Gauge)
                  Only notable part of the file is the negative BPM gimmick. Other than that, this is pretty generic. Rejected.

                  (moches) Croqel Part I
                  File seemed to drag on for me, making me lose interest. Straightforward moches file as usual though I liked Sunrag more than this. Accepted.

                  (Scylaax vs i love gabba) Meikai
                  For a Kenji Ito file, this is pretty generic and lacks rainbow notes. There are a few errors I spotted and areas of the file that could use some more work on. Maybe/Pending.

                  (i love gabba) One Phrase Blues
                  The 32nd gallops kinda irked me but the file is rather artistic and alright. Accepted.

                  (Baq12) Return of Salieri
                  Cool rainbow solos as usual. Some patterns during the solos are awkward for me. As for the jumps in the beginning, kind of a subjective matter. Personally, I'd just leave the 4th jumps in and remove the 8th jumps because the dominant sound I can hear while tapping out the notes are the 4th jumps. I can't even hear the 8th jumps and I'm wearing stereo headphones. Accepted.

                  (Scylaax) Tewi Within
                  Hahaha you were right when you said I'd like this. Solid file. Some parts seem a little overlayered and dumpy but it's acceptable. Accepted.

                  (Noon) Cond
                  OK file though there's nothing notable in the file that makes it have replay value let alone a fun factor. It gets pretty repetitive (even when you vary up the steps it still feels repetitive). The minijacks irked me. Rejected because Kommi wants files with replay value and this lacked that.

                  (KgZ) 8 Bit Beach Dreams
                  Straightforward 8bit file and nothing more. Accepting because it's ****ing KgZ.

                  (Kommisar) AngryGermanPhantom
                  Played before. Typical MAD file from ya. Accepted.

                  (N.T.M.) Warmen Drum Solo
                  Short but really amazing. But IIRC the file has to be more than one minute. Accepted if it's allowed in otherwise extend the file and it'll be good.

                  (Noon) Day
                  Typical Noon file. Nothing amazing but it's straightforward and fun. Was expecting a little bit more rainbow though. Accepted. Pack needs more Noon files.

                  (OperationStrawberry) Mind Rippin
                  Terrible layering, patterns and repetitive as ****. Some parts you might want to check the sync on. Rejected.

                  (OperationStrawberry) Screamwar
                  Not bad at all but rather repetitive and I found absolutely no replay or fun value in this. Rejected.

                  (SulferDragon) Spaceport Alpha
                  Would've been a good file for Vibrajack Pack but oh well. Pretty straightforward and fun. Nice application of jack theory though feels a bit empty since there were several parts where I personally would've spammed mini-freezes. Accepted.

                    Yeah Kommi hates the length, but I guess he said it's alright.

                    *edit* Oh hai Sulfer!! Awesome to see you submitting, man.
