Greetings everyone! Today is a very special occasion ;D

As of today, April 11th 2024, NinSheetMusic is 20 years old! On this day 20 years ago, NinSheetMusic launched humbly as a tiny little Freewebs site called "Video Game Sheet Music". Over the course of the next two decades, the website has gone through a number of redesigns and migrations to become the massive resource it is today. That's an incredibly long time for a website to be around for!

But that's not all for today - through countless hours of hard work arranging by our arrangers and reviewing by our updaters, our sheet music collection has grown to exceed 5000 arrangements! That number has continued to increase steadily even as quality standards have risen and older sheets have been replaced. It means that on average, a new piece of sheet music has been posted to the site every 35 hours since 2004, which is quite astounding to think about. As an extra-special surprise to remind us of how far NinSheetMusic has come, nestled amongst today's new additions is a new arrangement by our legendary founder G-Han - the first one in well over a decade!

All of this is thanks to the healthy growth of a wonderful community. To our arrangers who strive to create the best sheet music, our staff keeping operations running, our community members forming a welcoming friendly atmosphere, and our users enjoying all that we have to offer - thank you so much for your support over the years!

We've got some more cool stuff planned within the upcoming days as well, so please keep an eye out! And whether you're an old friend or new visitor, feel free to pop into our Discord server to say hello. Cheers, and here's to many more years and sheets :)

Sweet! Nothing more from me, approved ^^

Alrighty, you're welcome! Looks good, I shall accept

- m. 20 - I don't hear the second C in the triplet at all, just sounds like a single strike of the C?
- m. 24 - this first triplet doesn't sound like a triplet, more like an echoey effect...?

I still hear these and think they are worth including

Listening again I hear where this is coming from~

- m. 22 - the top A in the second chord is missing its natural sign

Ah now that the key is Bb, this natural no longer needs to be shown

I changed the distribution to hopefully make more sense?? Also you're right about that one measure being longer, I added fermatas like I did to other measures that were also longer

Sounds good. My parting thought on this is - how would you feel about splitting both m. 20 and 22 into measures of 2/4 + 4/4? They're pretty distinct phrases to me and it seems a bit odd to combine them. But if you do decide to keep them as-is, probably move the chords in m. 22 beat 3-4 to the right a bit so the triplet has a bit of space after it.

Last thing that just came to mind - break the beam between the two triplets in m. 26?

Code_Name_Geek is away for a bit and gave me permission to make the above edits, so I've updated the files. Accept time

- The low bass figure in m. 25 seems like it might be tricky to transfer into m. 25 from. If you lowered it to give the RH more space though, no problem I suppose

- could you clarify, please? Do you mean the low bass notes in the second half of m. 24? I don't recall if I transcribed them that low intentionally or bumped them down to make room for the RH pattern, but if I were to change beat 4 of the RH to just a quarter note C, how would you like the LH written in that measure?

Sorry I typo'd, yeah I was referring to how low the left hand gets at the end of m. 24. I was thinking raising it by an octave starting with beat 2 would make it easier to move to the pattern in m. 25. You could omit beat 4.5 in the RH if you like although upon looking closer it doesn't really get in the way with the LH even if the LH is raised an octave. I'll leave it up to you to decide what you prefer!

- Conversely, I think m. 41 beat 3.5 LH sounds like a C instead?

- did you mean to say that m. 41 beat 3.5 LH sounds like a G instead of an F? Because I'm listening to it again and it still sounds like an F to me

That one wasn't a typo, I think I hear the bass playing the same C as it does on beat 4.5 of m. 41. Though honestly it's really hard to tell without pitching it up an octave and even then I'm not 100% sure. If you think the F octave is right, I'm fine with that since it fits musically anyway.

Agreed with all the above, and made the changes in the files. Thank you both!

A few comments in addition to Bloop's above:

- About the presentation of m. 3: the RH beat 1 notes are offset a bit. You could also potentially write the first few notes of the top melody without the 8va to avoid clashing with the lower layer's notes/ties, but that'd be a lot of ledger lines and potential loss of continuity if you only include the 8va over some of the notes... just a thought you don't have to take.
- m. 20 - I don't hear the second C in the triplet at all, just sounds like a single strike of the C?
- m. 22 - the top A in the second chord is missing its natural sign
- m. 24 - this first triplet doesn't sound like a triplet, more like an echoey effect...?
- The slur all the way at the end can have its right edge dragged a bit to convey that it continues back at the beginning of the loop.
- The rest in the 6/4 measure sounds like it actually lasts a whole eighth rest longer... not imagining this am I? Do you think it might also be helpful to break m. 20-21 into some smaller measures? I think it might help me, at least, to think of a couple of these phrases as just lasting a couple of beats.


Lastly, should this be in Bb major? I know the common left hand pattern is rooted in Eb, but the melody at least tends to center around Bb and resolve to it very often. (There's also a ton of A naturals everywhere...)

Beats 2 and 4, you mean, right? (original)

Yeah, I agree. Though this sheet has some more issues like some offset measure numbers and use of 8va/octave clefs. We should fix this up a bit more if there's time...

I forgot to mention, yeah, something like that would be good I think.

Nice work, especially making the bassline palatable! Not much to add from me.

- In m. 4 beat 3, I think I hear the bass restrike the Bb (if you agree, just restrike the lower one?)
- How about moving the staccatos on top of the small notes in m. 17/19?
- The low bass figure in m. 25 seems like it might be tricky to transfer into m. 25 from. If you lowered it to give the RH more space though, no problem I suppose
- m. 26/34 beat 3.5 LH sounds like F instead of G
- Conversely, I think m. 41 beat 3.5 LH sounds like a C instead?

[approve]

- m. 16 beat 2 LH C sounds an octave up

Sounds pretty similar in bassiness to the C2's on beats 1 of m. 11,12,15,22 to me. And also sounds deeper than the C3 on m.7 b.1

Hm, I'm still hearing it higher up. I think the low C from the beginning in m. 15 is still resounding at this point, might that be the low C you hear? Raising the pitch an octave, it sounds like the higher C has a notable strike here.

- m. 22 beat 1 - I hear this chord with a G on top rather than the C on bottom

This is another situation like the last one where I'm hearing a ghost G on top. On inspection I hear the low C more clearly than the high G, even though in passing I keep thinking I hear a faint G on top

I still think I hear the upper G here as well... lowering the pitch by an octave, I still hear it up top. It's also what my ear is drawn to when listening at full speed.

Nonetheless, I can't say for 100% that you're not right about these couple of notes either. I will approve since everything else looks good! If the next updater could check these couple spots in particular, that'd be appreciated~
