Hi, 

I don’t think I won inter rhythm this week, just checked and don’t recall posting a 98%.  My first was an 88% and my second was in the 90’s but not that high.

[Rodman]

@ jellisjenius great week, great work! Fixed that lil mislink for Steely Dan. Can you setup the leaderboard sheet? If not, i´ll do it.

Rock!

Rod.

[TinMan86]

3rd place Lenny Kravitz Fly Away Victory!!!

[jellisjenius]

I have updated the OP with corrected winners for Int. Rhythm and God of Rhythm - sorry about that! Thanks @ Rodman for the assist on Steely Dan.

I will set up the leaderboard sheet sometime today.

Sight read completely blind dont kow the song. No pressure then 49 notes missed

[coldrampage]

Really fun, wish the clean tone was a bit louder tho.


Cable died for a bit halfway in.
Wish the rest of the song was more like the ending, most of it is fairly boring.


I'd probably say this is harder in general than the current mc bass, more fills and just faster overall.

Not a big fan of this week, but here are my scores

First of all, MC Lead should be changed. Note detection is terrible and random, so I don't think it's a good idea to keep the song for that path @ jellisjenius  

You like jazz? Memes aside, I love listening to jazz but not playing it, felt really boring and I don't feel motivated to learn the song so this is it for me

If MC Lead is changed i'll be back, otherwise see y'all next week!

7.5

While I like the song, I have to agreed with @ Nacholede . I'm getting massive detection issues in RR, even at low speeds. Also some parts are just plain wrong (it's very audible at slower speeds). The fact that the whole solo is one long part doesn't help either.

I suggest this for replacement: Steely Dan - Kid Charlemagne

[nlbsmglsk]

The bass part is a ok tho.

Attn @ Bottledpat12  @ Nacholede  @ shaggy_malagy

I updated the OP with a different Steely Dan song (Kid Charlemagne) for MC Lead - thanks @ nlbsmglsk  for the tip

I also added Kid Charlemagne as God of Bass so we can play the bass part without disrupting the other selections. It may not be quite GoB level but I think that's okay.
