Ok, all judges who didnt judge so far, dont read my comments. I already wrote it, so I post them. I want to give some usufull feedback to the players with words, so that they know how I came to the numbers and where their weakpoints could be and how to work on it. Here my rating and my opinion about the playing. PLUTO technique 3 compás 2 Aire 1 SCORE = 4 You have to work on technics. I would do that with playing in slowmotion with the compas. You get the compas with the exercise of the beginners challenge. There were almost no accents. Your playing was not in compas. pronounce the 12 of arpegios as the 6. And when you are bored after playing bulerias at 80bpm for some hours.. play some more with that speed. I’m sure you can quickly make more than 2 times as good as now. STITCH technique 3 compás 2 Aire 3 SCORE = 8 Really nice opening. There were heavy problems with the compas. It sounded like you forgot what to play at some points. I would work on that as I wrote above. Here and there were good accents! The reverb was to big.. The technic was fair. I didn’t hear the notes from your m finger during the arpegios. I would try to play it that you hear every single note clearly. ALADDIN technique 4 compás 5 aire 4 SCORE = 13 Great opening, weak arpegio.. The compas strumming was fair. It was close to be off compas, but all together it was in- So goon with that falseta at slow speed and I guess you play it completely save in some weeks. Work on the tripletrasguado in the end of this falseta. There are many different ways to do it. MICKEY MOUSE technique 6 compás 6 aire 5 SCORE = 17 Im sorry if I tell crap, but it sounds like the opening was pasted in front of the arpegiopart where the compas backing starts.If so you should be disqualifyed coz of editing via copy paste. Also if it was not meant to cheat in any way. Well,.. why didn’t you play all along with the compas? Beside of that the compas feeling was really good, I think there is no need for you to paste it like in the original. The rasguados and arpegios also sounded good to me. CHESHIRE CAT technique 8 compás 9 aire 8 SCORE = 25 Ole! The best attempt till now. It was solid playing with accents where they should be and all nicely in compas with solid techincs!! Enjoyed it very much! I liked your interpretation at 0,57!! The only things which I could silently announce are. Put compas backing on your playing , try to play a bit more tight with the compas and go on with that! Hope to see you in the advanced challenge in future! BALOO THE BEAR technique 3 compás 0 aire 1 SCORE = 3 The compas playing in the end was really nice. You should focus for a while on your techincs beside of strumming. I think that’s the reason why it was completely played without compas.. The falseta was so differently played that I thought, maybe you don’t know how to read the time signatures of transcriptions correctly. Beside of the bad compas, your accents in playing are already there. That’s very good, because many players who developed an awesome techincs aren’t able to pronounce in any way. So you have a good base! Go on with that. PETER PAN technique 9 compás 9 aire 9 SCORE = 27 Do you have a thumbnail? The opening and basses were extremely softly played. With a good nail, it would be as different as day and night. (And fastly done without any practicing). Your technics are smooth! Very good! Rasguados, arpegios, picado.. all no problem for you. Accents are there at the right place and the playing is in compas! And tight. Well... what could I say... buy a better mic and grow a thumbnail! Than you rule! (See you in the advanced challenge) SIMBA technique 8 compás 8 aire 8 SCORE = 24 The compas during the falseta and the ending was nicely done! In the opening and here and there later it gave the impression, you would play a bit in front of the compas. Do you play on steel treble strings? If not, your strings have a too weak tension or your strings are more than a way to close to the soundboard. (But that’s no point to rate here). It was all well done, but sounded not completely save. But all together well done! Liked it! UNCLE REMUS technique 1 compás 1 aire 1 SCORE = 3 You should work hardly on your compas feeling beside of all technics. Please read what I wrote to Baloo the bear. Pinnochio technique 6 compás 7 aire 8 SCORE = 21 You are on a good way to master it well. It sounds like you are damn close. Its all a lower tempo than normal. Im sure you could play it faster, which would have shown better that your technics and feeling works quite well. At such a slow tempo I have no proof.. But it sounds like you could. But that’s not enough to get full points. The accents were right, good feeling, the picado fits and in the end of the picado at1.02 I really LOVE your pronunciation! It is not perfectly clean, but these are the small things which make a player unique and which really rock the **** craze when it is played at full speed. So,,. Work a bit more on everything, play it at full speed and rule! Nice playing anyway! NEMO technique 4 compás 4 aire 2 SCORE = 10 (O.0);.. I need a doctor!! My ears are bleeding!!! Your playing is recorded with extra bonus on loudness and ringing sound like a motor saw, directly started beside of my ear 5o´clock in the morning!! And your playing started more than 10 times automatically after pinochios when I wrote about his playing and started it over and over to check all.. Hahaha.. :.) But I don’t rate this kind of sound quality.. For the opening chords you don’t need the top 2 strings. Just hit the basses.. Many players play with almost no accents,. Your playing is one big accent. I would play more silently and reduce the accents to the rights places. The technics (rasguaso and arpegio) sounded not completely in control but close to. The picado was fair. I want to check it out more to write more comments, but I want to sleep without a ringing in my ears.. CAPTAIN HOOK technique 7 compás 7 aire 8 SCORE = 22 Very nice opening. Well arpegio and picado. But your playing is a bit in front of the compas. Its sounds slightly hectic. If you work much with a metronome, you can handle that fastly and fight fort the lead here. The accents were nice and the the compass playing in the and had power in the down strokes. That was really good. All together a very good submission but needs a little bit more control in timing. Oley! Thanks to all participants!! I enjoyed it ery much and completely skipped the preparation for my speech tomorow at 9 am for you...[&:] Now I will sleep and tell my boss tomorrow the names of the 12 bastards from disneyland who disturbed my free time!!!![>:][:D]
