Broadjam Artist: FRED GROSS
Song: Step by Step
Reviewer: Floyd Kelly
Positive Comments: If you like listening to contemporary instrumental music that is smooth, open and inviting with a positive vibe – this one is for you. A skilled guitarist takes you on a stroll with this blues-styled motif that is relaxing.
Constructive Comments: I listened to this twice. What stood out most is that there are no pauses or breaks in the piece. The lack of pauses doesn’t allow any memorable harmonies to come through in the instruments. The style, chosen instruments, key and all work together but is all destroyed by the lack of the pause to allow the listener to get the musical picture. If this song is re-recorded with some stops along the way … it would take the piece to another level. I think another EQ-cutting pass through the instruments might be good.
