There's a 7-note pattern looped in this mix that 311 briefly used in "Prisoner" for a hot second (1:18-1:21), but is that a common reggae riff in the genre? Could it be a potential Standards issue if it was? ------------------------------------------ Liontamer - if anyone's really familiar with reggae, had a quick question on a riff used a lot in this mix; just want to be sure it's not somehow a case where you could argue there's big usage of "non-VGM" as a source tune; for @djpretzel too, if you have any opinion Rexy- He said he took inspiration from 2 riddims; gonna bring up some reading material Hot milk - http://www.dub-stuy.com/riddimology-20-crucial-versions-of-the-hot-milk-riddim Stalag - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalag_riddim I’ll go close and see how it relates in use to that one track posted in the thread Liontamer - Thanks for looking Rexy - Okay, that clip in the song you linked used a Stalag riddim - characterised by that 7 note riff https://youtu.be/td1kmHIYv2Y According to Wikipedia, that riff has been around for nearly 70 years Liontamer - Thanks; yeah, I knew I'd heard that rhythm before, so I knew it had some sort of history; I guess I'll look to Dave for Standards guidance djpretzel - ya I mean, reggae has a lot of reused patterns, not surprising listening now, I'd say fine reggae, blues, you've got a ton of common progressions/patterns, gotta allow those or the genres go out the window cool mix

OK, I've figured out the issue, solution is here. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7846590 Apple changed the function of the Grouping tags (all the way back in 2017), so now they don't behave the way they used to and cause the confusing display issue. Going forward, I'll keep the Grouping field blank.

My fault! Done, and happy to have it corrected.

Perhaps it's just my personal taste, but the sound/synth design still isn't great, IMO, and I think Michael will look back on this one in 5 years and hear a lot more things he could have done with it. The production isn't poor though, and the sound design was definitely improved vs. the previous version. Now with the off-key writing fixed, and the interwoven usage of the various source tunes from before along with a few new source tune nods, this now works works well in terms of the arrangement. Count it! YES
