Broadjam Artist: The Bitter Elegance
Song: Sunshine Attitude
Reviewer: John Masarone
Positive Comments: I feel better already listening to this clever song. The vocal is perfect for it. Very perky, positive sounding. The chorus hits 0:34 sec in. Impressive. The groove on the chorus is great. Love the off sounding background gang vocals at 1:00 minute mark. People eat that stuff up. Very marketable with some tweaks. Great job!
Constructive Comments: I listened on my studio monitors several times.Keep in mind, this is just an opinion on how I would do the mix if I was the mix engineer. I think the snare is over done. The rhythm of the snare is OK but how it sits in the mix and the sound of it is not doing it for me. Sorry. The song needs another hooky musical part and the snare is not it (for me). I’m not sure about the door closing at the very end. It has no meaning for me. The lead vocal might be a hair too up front in spots. At 1:10, the second verse sits nice but in the preceding chorus seemed louder. The organ needs to be heard at 1:23. The snare is covering it up.
