just wanted to mention a few small things, nothing big
[Challenging]
01:15:188 - Only asking for confirmation here, but the short notes and LNs are counted separately in chords right? What I mean is 01:15:188 - 01:22:247 - and others like it are only jumps, whereas 01:16:953 - 01:20:483 - 01:24:012 - and so on are hands. The only difference between the two is that one contains an extra LN and the other doesnt. Just my opinion, but I think it would have been better to keep the chord sizes consistent jumps or hands but what you have now is fine too.
01:31:953 (91953|1,92174|0) - Thought it might be cool to stack these two notes for the kick since it's the same sound, and there's currently no differentiation by chord density or anything for it, so I dunno, just a thought.
01:34:968 - I'm going to be mentioning stuff like this later on in the map, but there's a shaker kind of sound here on the 1/6 that might be cool to add. I do get why you wouldn't though because the first half of the map is a bit more calm whereas most of the difficulty (despite it being pretty easy overall) is at the end with the 1/4 hihats.
01:38:130 (98130|2) - I think it'd be cool to make this a 1/2 LN to represent the two separated bass notes at 01:38:130 - and 01:38:571 - rather than seemingly ignore the first one and map only the second.
02:41:659 - to 02:41:769 - is a short glissando, so I think it'd be appropriate to add an LN on the 1/4 after 02:41:659 (161659|2) - to represent the change in pitch
02:50:924 (170924|3) - I think it'd be nice to move this note to col 1 and then extend it as a 1/1 long LN or so because the sound kind of tapers off very quickly after that. The same could be said for notes like 02:54:453 (174453|2) - 02:56:218 (176218|0,176218|2) -
03:06:733 - Same stuff I mentioned at 01:34:968 - which I think would be cool to have in the map. The sound is similar to the 1/4 shakers found at places such as 03:05:813 (185813|3) - 03:04:049 (184049|3) - for example, but with a slightly looser sound, and with swing instead of straight rhythms.
03:07:578 (187578|0) - For stuff like this, I might consider prioritizing the 1/6 shaker as opposed to the 1/4 hihat since I think most players will be paying more attention to the shaker as I mentioned before. It's ok to leave it on the 1/4 though because there is a hihat there, but it's harder to hear over other sounds present in the music imo.
03:14:279 - I honestly think that this retriggering of the kiai time is redundant. I assume it's done for the crash at 03:14:306 - , but it really doesn't add anything else to the map aside from the kiai fountains for maybe half a second which might mislead the player due to the fact a player might have expected a slow transitional measure before the end of the kiai, only for there to be none. I would honestly just remove 03:14:279 - and keep it as one smooth kiai.
03:28:424 - Following your logic above too, I would have expected a very short kiai to trigger here for the end of the section and crash that comes with it.
03:28:644 (208644|0,208755|1) -
I actually believe that these are snapped incorrectly. It seems to me that there's only three sounds between 03:28:424 - and 03:28:865 - , and they're all equidistant in time to each other, which would mean this is a 1/3 triplet. So it shouldn't be using 1/4 but rather 1/3 like this
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/894205503:41:659 - I'd suggest doing here what you did at 01:38:130 - with the 3/4 LN for the bass, such as this
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/894206603:43:865 (223865|0,223865|1) - I'm not sure why this is a jump. Assuming your chord consistency remains the same throughout the song, shouldnt kicks be mapped as singles rather than doubles? See 03:42:762 - 03:35:483 - 03:31:291 - 03:31:733 - and so on. Actually, a lot of the middle section is inconsistent in the same way too.
03:45:556 - add note for the shaker? Could add in in 1 on the 1/6
03:46:402 (226402|0) - Seeing that this is getting towards the end and there's a lower note density, I'd consider shifting a lot of the 1/4 hihat notes such as this one to the 1/6 line above for the shaker.
04:00:133 (240133|3) -
Should be on the 1/6 at 04:00:115 - , along with the ending of 03:59:692 (239692|2) - because the gap between notes is slightly larger than the gaps between 03:59:251 (239251|3,239306|1,239692|2,239747|0) -
04:06:337 (246337|0) -
I believe this is actually supposed to be on the 1/12 line at 04:06:328 - since there's a bit of a swing to the note if you listen on 25%, rather than it being a straight rhythm.
Aside from the three notes I mentioned whose snaps are incorrect, everything else is subjective and I wouldn't mind it either way. Overall really nice and calm map with some cool LNs and graces =w=
