Broadjam Artist: FRED GROSS
Song: Into Thin Air

Reviewer: John Hazlett

Positive Comments: Fantastically wonderful piece! Would be a great intro to so many things! It has It all, terrific harmony, beat, and melody to boot! Even the steel stringed guitar is not drowned out.

Constructive Comments: None needed! Well done! A real pleasure to listen to.

Broadjam Artist: Kate Carpenter
Song: Manners Rap

Reviewer: Gizzmo aka Miselph

Positive Comments: The biggest positive I can give is that it is very original. I understand that this is probably for kindergarten kids so I get it.

Constructive Comments: Cheesy. Cat in the hat lyrics. Like I said I understand what market you are looking for but the beat and sing sound really generic. I’m sorry. I’m just being honest from my personal view.

Broadjam Artist: The Rap Ghandi
Song: Pinocchio 3

Reviewer: Gizzmo aka Miselph

Positive Comments: No disrespect but I do not like this.

Constructive Comments: The auto tune is a terrible idea. That and the beat sound distorted. Like i said no disrespect but it’s just not a good song to me but hey I’m just one person. Keep going hard and learn what it is you do best bro.

Broadjam Artist: Aryz Kahlid
Song: When I Ride On My Enemies

Reviewer: Gizzmo aka Miselph

Positive Comments: I really like the beat.

Constructive Comments: The lyrics and delivery need work. Also don’t be scared to stop out the box and do your own thing.

Broadjam Artist: Aryz Kahlid
Song: Dumpin remix

Reviewer: Gizzmo aka Miselph

Positive Comments: I like the feel of the song and the first verse goes hard. The best is dope but I would say this would go under rap-hip hop or rap-east coast.

Constructive Comments: The second rapper needs to work on his delivery. Sounds like he may have just started rapping. No disrespect because we ask started somewhere. I just think he needs more work on his craft.

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Ashbaker
Song: People Are the Reason Why

Reviewer: stefo

Positive Comments: nice instrumentation . love the violin its not overplayed nice and subtle. the vocals are well delivered. nice harmonies. verse’s flow nicely into chorus. this would be great live.

Constructive Comments: the only thing i would say is that the lyrics are a little predictable but i guess for the subject matter its hard to be poetic. the bridge was a little short would have liked a longer instrumental break but i enjoyed the song and would like to hear more from y am going to check out your page.

Broadjam Artist: Kate Carpenter
Song: Armor of God Instrumental

Reviewer: Ober Rivers And His DUI’S

Positive Comments: Flashy harmonica and a Cajun beat, go one now, get you some of that.

Constructive Comments: Starts of great with the drum beat, problem is, to me, this is largely incomplete as an instrumental. Sounds more or less like a song that has vocals but had them taken out cause someone thought it might make a decent instrumental. Playing is fine, but it needs a melody and a real arrangement. Maybe in the right soundtrack it could get used like this.

Broadjam Artist: Steve Dafoe – Songwriter
Song: Storm Of Days (Roots/Contemporary Blues)

Reviewer: stefo

Positive Comments: guitar is great nice vibe and build of the song. vocal was nice and had a dark texture. has a country blues vibe which i think is very marketable.loved the mood and feel of the song it has a gothic american vibe i could imagine myself in the country in the south.

Constructive Comments: i think the chorus is not really well defined, i loved the song but kept waiting for something to happen like a change of chord or bridge. lyrics were a bit predictable . loved the vocals and the guitar.

Broadjam Artist: Marc S. Pate
Song: Rollin’ In Your Arms

Reviewer: stefo

Positive Comments: great instrumentation. organ, sax and vocals are on point. has a real new Orleans feel, musicianship is brilliant. can here this being played on blues radio stations, has a jazz vibe to the sax which is great.

Constructive Comments: the vocals are not as high in the mix as could have been. lyrics are a bit predictable but overall the song has a great live vibe.

Broadjam Artist: Signal 30
Song: Alligator

Reviewer: stefo

Positive Comments: lyrics are cool. vocal is excellent. the chorus hook is great. as i said i really like the subject matter and the singers gritty ballsy vocal.

Constructive Comments: the quality of the recording letting the song down . the mix is a bit messy which is a shame as the song has great potential. the sampled horns sound a little distorted maybe use a guitar motive instead. overall like the song i think if the arrangment was simplified it would really kick ass.
