the drum programming still has a bit of a way to go (the way the hi-hat copies the kick drum cracks me up cos it reminds me of myself attempting to play the drums)
You're going to have the blame the Yamaha corporation for that. The DD-6 is not a programmable or MIDI-controllable drum machine.. what you hear is the built-in "Speed Metal" patch, slowed back down a bit.

Well yeah! I mean who doesn't? Congrats to Uncle Boltoph and the Deshead Kid for winning, now stop doing that and give the rest of us a chance will ya?
Thanks to everyone who did reviews, very comprehensive and useful. In a fight as big as this one was, 2 things really stand out for me. The overall quality of the competition and the number of reviews that were written. Outstanding job everyone.
I’m sorry I’m late getting to these. I seem to have completely F!$*#$% up my neck, and am contending with big pain. Apologies if my reviews seem a trifle curmudgeonly. I’m drinking wine and moping under the heat pad. This fight, like the other in this round, was pretty uniformly great. If I dismissed your song with little more than a “not really doing it for meâ€
