Arrangement Project (Paper Mario)

[Bloop]

I personally think all those naturals lying around just makes the sheet harder to read

[Maelstrom]

Is it bad?

It's just a preference/formatting choice. I think you can guess what my choice is.

And, yes, my choice does not need to be the same as yours. I just think it looks cleaner.

[The Deku Trombonist]

This is a blues rip-off and a big part of blues is the tension between major/minor third and perfect/diminished fifth scale degrees. So I think the key can stay as A maj. Sometimes people write blues with a #4 instead of b5 but I tend to prefer b5. Up to you.

If you guys don't mind, I prefer to keep the b5. That way the bass is also somehow more consistent, with 2 A's, 2 C's, 2 D's and 2 E's, instead of 3 D's and 1 E (which wouldn't be wrong at all though). Also, it follows the same pattern over and over so it shouldn't give that much trouble to read, even if is not as clean as using a D#.

Yeah I understand your point of view, but is not something too unusual, tying two eighths with a rest in the middle. Well dunno, it would be ok in both forms tbh

Feedback for Approach to the Mansion:

- Url is http://www.ninsheetmusic.org/    I know it's persnickety, but that is in the guidelines.
- The last measure, measure 14, isn't needed. A and D are only held for 4 beats.

That's all I notice. Excellent Job!!!!!

Make sure the note beaming of the second voice in the left hand in m. 6 is pointing upwards. Also, maybe move the upper layers in the left hand in m. 2 en 7 to the right hand (with an L.H. marking, of course)

[nacho2420]

Fixed! Here's a link to my revised files. Thanks for the critique   

[Sebastian]

Ok! Got your updated file in the OP!

Here is the next one.
(We'll skip Fierce's song(s) for now since he isn't around and since his are usually perfect )

Boo's Dance (Boo's Mansion Theme) - mariolegofan -  ZIP

I already did some working on this song earlier today. Whatcha guys think?

[nacho2420]

Fixed some wrong notes at meas. 10 and 18.
The bass notes may sound dissonant but those are the occurring notes in the original.
Talk about quirky music! lol. Here's the edited file
