Broadjam Artist: Jeff Roberts
Song: Out of the Gaze of the Evil Eye
Reviewer: Trinity
Positive Comments: This song has a great pulsing bass hook which really sets the song off and gives propulsion and drive. I love the way the song has a stripped down arrangement and dynamics throughout. There is a great use of reverb on the vocal track. The song has a great New Wave Tom Petty/ The Cars style vibe to it which means the song can work in any era and still sound fresh.
Constructive Comments: As A bass player I love a good rhythmic hook and this one drives the song along nicely. The song has the quality that could be stripped down to a guitar and voice and it will still work, so it doesn’t rely on the production. So often a somewhat weak offering is glitzed up with a lush production to compensate for a poor effort, this is not the case here. If I were to say something, and it’s only because I often do the same myself is, not drop some of the low bass eq, as the bottom end is slightly boomy.
