I played #3 yesterday (I must have missed when it came out) and it was amazing. Now I hear that there is a #4 on the way - what a bonus :) Not only do you have some of the best scene selections, but you also have the very best audio I've seen in any CH. Until I read this thread I assumed that you had a friend do it for you - it fitted the theme so well.
Thanks! Searching for fitting music is very time consuming but it is what makes the round in my opinion. It largery dictates structure, pacing and mood so choosing the right song is something that I pay close attention to. When you find the right one everything just falls into place almost by itself while editing. It can also inspire the theme of the round.
There are great examples of using the song to create relaxation or tension, anticipation and even emotional reaction in other authors work and serves as a great inspiration to me and something that I'm trying to strive for.
I'm in a bit of talkative mood today so I'll take this opportunity to list some of my favourite ones:
(Hope you are all in "I like to read bad english" mood today

CH - Flux Ep.5
Author: vindicare
Round1 [0:30]
Amazing and powerful start for CH video! Music and her dancing fits so well that I'm not sure if it's actually the original soundtrack of the video.
(If not, it's just amazing video editing skills vindicare!)
CH - Lucy Li - A Hard Tribute
Author: mathison
Round1 [0:56]
Probably the best first round for me. The anticipation that the author creates using this song is out of this world. Masterpiece!
CH - 15
Author: andyp
Round5 [23:49]
This song never fails in CH video! Right to the edge baby!
CH - QT
Author: Brewster
Lesbian Round [5:08]
Probably my favourite lesbian round of all times. The music just fits perfectly. Don't let the upbeat nature of the song fool you. With help of some faster beats it sneakyly creeps up on you and builds this round into ridiculous intensity. Just beautiful!
CH - Levels 2
Author of the round: Ofthewind
Level 2 [5:45]
There is that emotional aspect I was talking about. Audio of the scenes is muted witch gives this somewhat detached and "dreamy" mood. Amazing song, exceptional round. It always gives me chills.
CH - Sessions
Author:Braxe
Session 2 (1 on 1) [6:40]
Not necesarly the type of songs I would put on my playlist but holy shit it works! This is what I call a build up. There is also amazing use of slower parts of the songs - frustrating you and building anticipation for what is about to come. Great work!
CH - Slow blow
Author: Braxe
[6:31]
Just sit down, relax and let these lovely ladies take care of you. I love the song and the relaxing mood it creates.
CH - New Game +
Author: ? (Anyone knows?)
[14:45]
When the song kicks in the energy of this round goes through the roof! I love it. If this doesn't make you stroke so hard you almost break your "game controller" I don't know what will.
(Ok, I take it back. There is - CH - Max series)
CH - New Game +2
Round 9
Author: ? (Anyone knows?)
This round doesn't play around. Song is rough, fits perfectly and just keeps going and going until it breaks you.
CH - Levels
Author of the round: Hqro
Level 10 [43:13]
When this song kicks in you know you are in trouble. I love these "oh shit" moments!
CH 6
Author: andyp
Round 9 [37:37]
I love the sync between intensity of the music, visuals and beats. Andyp sure put this song to good use in this round!
And finally:
CH - New Game +
Author: ? (Anyone knows?)
[22:25]
Genius idea and editing, song that makes your heart skip and three ladies determined to make you lose and greatly enjoying the proces.This could be summed up as an ultimate buildup. This round is just impossible... (Maybe I'm buyest because I love blowjobs and facials so much
)
It is probably my favorite round in all CH videos.

Regarding the HC/SC discussion I say go with what you have most fun creating. If you try to do something that is less fun and more work then I don't think it often work out as well (or you produce less, which is also bad).
I agree completely. After all it's a hobby. Hobbies should be fun.

For ladies I'd like to see again
1) Jenna Reese
2) Michaela Isizzu
Noted. I love these two too and they have a lot of content, but probably in another video.
Maybe I could create a whole "comeback" episode at some point.
Sorry. Not entirely my type.

2) Mary Queen
If I ever use her it will be probably in some kind of HC video.

1) Natasha Belle (you teased her in the lineup for both #1 and #2)
Maybe...?
