Broadjam Artist: Jon Babb
Song: The Journey Home

Reviewer: John Hazlett

Positive Comments: Truly a wonderful piece. Can be used for the introduction for a fantasy movie that has many landscapes, such as some of the flight scenes in, “Never Ending Story”. But remaining in the mountains, where one can see the clouds and mist flowing around the mountains and foothills. Trees swaying in the breeze, and animals climbing up and down.

Constructive Comments: None needed. Well done.

Broadjam Artist: Margie & Art Corey, S. & A. Corey
Song: Have Faith

Reviewer: Bob Higgs

Positive Comments: Lovely atmosphere and excellent playing, great vocals. Lyrics a bit cliched. Could be a hit on film x

Constructive Comments: Just needs exposure.

Broadjam Artist: Brenda Craven
Song: Worthy

Reviewer: Bob Higgs

Positive Comments: Sounds like Maharanatha. Really spiritual. Lovely vocal.

Constructive Comments: Great song to do in church.

Broadjam Artist: Castle-Eye (Michael Casali)
Song: Dark Side Of Dave

Reviewer: TeflonByte

Positive Comments: The brass section plays a nice melody. I liked it very much. The same applies to the bass, when it plays alone. It is a nice riff. The chorus pleased me, too.The song resembles 60’s/70’s britt music. That’s fine too. Didn’t understand lyrics, sorry.

Constructive Comments: The end was too long.Maybe fewer stops after the brass section.The vocal is too much ‘in the background’ at some points. On the other hand this strengthens the britt music feeling.

Broadjam Artist: Jon Babb
Song: It’s a Girl

Reviewer: Ronald Arduini

Positive Comments: beautifully done.. like the changes that occur at the build up around 43 seconds and the release at around 1 min. 4 sec.and rebirth after…So,,I will call this song “Rebirth”

Constructive Comments: THE SOUND OF THE “OBOE”?.. PERHAPS A DIFFERENT INSTRUMENT?

Broadjam Artist: Bob Higgs
Song: Dreambody

Reviewer: Patrick E. Muth

Positive Comments: like the laid back vibe on this good choice of instruments too

Constructive Comments: I think it would help the song if there was a break in there somewhere—-would add another element and could be easily done!Keep the musical river flowing! ====Catnip====

Broadjam Artist: Jon Babb
Song: Dreamworld

Reviewer: Patrick E. Muth

Positive Comments: like how the song breaks down to the simple piano in the middle.

Constructive Comments: I could see this soundtrack easily in a movie. I would have liked it to go in a different direction tho with maybe a keychange or emodulation but its also good just like it is!All the musical Best!==========Catnip Pat====================

Song: If You Dare

Reviewer: Randal Dunkle

Positive Comments: Very good sounding piece of music, I love the lead guitar and the sound of the drums and cymbals – sounds a lot like the Byrds.

Constructive Comments: Great sounding tune, I really don’t have a lot of negatives however, I would add a bridge – best wishes.

Broadjam Artist: Jon Babb
Song: Holy Knight

Reviewer: Randal Dunkle

Positive Comments: Very clean sounding piece, I really like the strings and how they harmonize with each other, sounds like you have a great soundtrack.

Constructive Comments: I really like this piece however, it is just way too short – please add more drums, best wishes!

Broadjam Artist: Randal Dunkle
Song: His Name

Reviewer: Tim Ely

Positive Comments: Like the jangly rhythm guitar and the rasp in the vocal.

Constructive Comments: Seems mis-categorized here in “Country Contemporary”…maybe more appropriate to Christian category. Recording was a little sloppy, especially at end with extra guitar blip and cutoff pop.
