As great as it is, the bar has not been set what so ever as it's not a live performance, its recordings layered, which I find isn't fair to other contestants (including myself) who either don't have the equipment or who actually give a fantastic solo performance yet, a lot of them get overshadowed by other people who add so many layers and other recordings to enhance there entry. I'm not being bitter or trying to be rude to this entry (who has great rhythm) and no disrespect to other talented artists who give multi layered entries like this, but, it does take the whole point of what "performing live" actually means. Anyways time to go, I'm sure you'll do well my friend. Peace
Honest and true statement! But @juanhobos points out that it is post-produced, so he is not misleading anybody. The rules are set up by @luzcypher, he decides if an entry like this can qualify (my opinion: It is hard to tell because it is a multiscreen performance and each take could have been done live)
The simple fact bro is that this isn't a live performance. He recorded the takes then edited them so they were put in sync, it would be live if he played all the instruments one after another looping it without any other window and that's fair play, but multi screen windows is not something that is a flowing live performance. Anyways not gonna continue with this as all the other artists have received decent amount of upvotes following on from there similar upvotes from previous weeks, me, somehow playing in a church on a beautiful piano playing an original song is far less superior than a 3 chord cover tune with not exactly the greatest vocals somehow the best entry. Absolute madness, but hey that's the reasons why I can no longer invest my time with the openmic section on here.
This might encourage me to do live looping for my next set! Although you're right about the videos being edited together, each individual take still is recorded in a live setting. Is this a loophole? Not too sure, but, its still definitely a fun way of creating music. Don't stop doing what you love, nor participating on openmic. Your time will come as well! Peace!
