I really liked them both. With "Constant Motion" you could listen where you the groove was lost but you handled it pretty well and I was pleasantly surprised with what I heard. I asked Dimi what he thought and we pretty much agreed with the grade. Good pull off!
"6:00" suffered to a higher extend the lack of "grooviness" (yeah, I invented that word) that you handled much better with "Constant Motion". You can have all the excuses you want about why the first one came better, but overall, as if I can pinpoint what you have to work on -from a not-a-drummer view- is the feeling. Loose yourself a bit. Get into the songs. Enjoy the moment; it may not sound absolutely perfect but the overall sound will be enjoyed not only by you but by the listener as well. You were focusing too much following MP's lead. Loose yourself a bit, like you did in some parts of CM and you'll playing will improve substantially. Having said all of that, of course, IMHO.
DAMN YOU for your delay, icy!!!
Emindead gives his blessing and says he can now move to the next challenge.
