Nothing needs to be said except...DICKSPEED. The Grimace is known for making songs incredibly fast, so he can fit in more than 5 notes per beat, and make effective use of volume control. He also does his songs all by ear, which impresses me even more. TheEvilGrimace's BEST video: ca.youtube.com/watch?v=zXBz0qHCCwg&fmt=18Results so far: Round 1: Levus28 - 92% Round 2: BrianLED - 97% Round 3: SatoshiLyish - 95% Nominations AngryTiger - 8 AxelRod - 8 Cat333Pokemon - 8 SonicFan113 - 5 RehdBlob - 1 TomBobBlender - 1 ThePieGuy - 1 AdolfoBaez - 2 HCBaily - 2 REMEMBER TO NOMINATE!!! Remember, each person gets 5 nomination points PER ROUND, and you don't have to use all your points on one person. I'm going to update the nominations on this post every so often, so remember that these above stats are current.

TomBobBlender brought SNESMP to Youtube.
I brought MPC to Youtube.
TheEvilGrimace brought dickspeed to Youtube.
And it was good.
Grimace's works are so absurdly above and beyond what 90% of composers (including myself) are releasing. This particular piece illustrates that quite clearly:
1.) The strings in the first 20 seconds of the video - the volume control is spot-on. I mean, right on. Perfect.
2.) More than 5 instruments per line. This makes everything so much more epic.
3.) The sheer amount of effort required. Even for a normal 'long' song (I refer to video length), it takes massive levels of concentration to pour 3 minutes of material into something (I am currently thinking of my Blast Corps theme.) Grimace does 3 minutes of material (it's looped, btw), but at more than 4X the tempo. That's 4 times the work put in.
So, I can honestly say, knowing what a perfect score entails, that this video scores:
100%[/u]
Congratulations.
As for nominations:
+2 points to AngrytigerP (such modesty!) +2 points to Axelrod777 +1 points to Cat333Pokemon

You are a god. Dickspeed is the new craze right now (along with sounfonts), but I have never seen anyone accomplish it is cleanly as you do. Like Satoshi, you brought on a new era of MPC.
Nominations: +1 TomBobBlender +1 ThePieGuy +2 AdolfoBaez +1 HCBaily

99%
Words cannot describe how epic his songs are! He's the person that invented the dickspeed method and he's also the one who perfected it. But he looses 1% because he generally uses dickspeed to get past the 5 note limit.
Nominations: +5 Adolfobaez

I'll give a 99.5%. His songs are so amazing, but so much dickspeed, and since I'm a minimalist, well.... ah, forget it. 100%, he's deserving.
Nom points: 2 for TomBobBlender, 1 for HCBailly, and 2 for Axelrod

He's one of the best composers there is. His skill with high tempos is matched by few and bested by none.
SonicFan +3 Axelrod +2
