Song: Omni Play

Reviewer: Sandra Ada

Positive Comments: Has a great sultry feel, could totally see it as background music in an intense and mysterious scene. Love the sound effects, it really gives it a unique and interesting sound. Great job.

Constructive Comments: Not much to add I think its a great mysterious song. Could possibly say the length is a bit long but that is nit picking.

Broadjam Artist: Gary Mazzola
Song: Desert Moon

Reviewer: Bobby Caputo

Positive Comments: A very calming little tune. Imagery is unmistakable. Interesting guitar work and the harp at the end was very cool. Nice hook that stays with you long after 4:10…. Reminds me of Dave Mason or Cat Stevens.

Constructive Comments: This one came in a “Country Rock”…ya might wanna change that…I thought the guitar mix could’ve been cleaner…there was a lot going on that I wanted to hear and it was a bit muddy.

Song: When pain Fades into beuatiful

Reviewer: Bobby Caputo

Positive Comments: Really nice overall sound with a strong vocal styling. Good production…the recording is crisp and clean.

Constructive Comments: Didn’t really go anywhere…kept waiting for a musical change, but it never came…when the vocalist tried to gut it up…he failed and went flat…hard to miss. Don’t really subscribe to the lyric…it assumes the listener doesn’t know this…forgive and forget is nothing new…and most people…save Trump…live this way. Good luck with it.

Broadjam Artist: Chet Nichols
Song: Honky Tonk Rock ‘n Roll

Reviewer: Bobby Caputo

Positive Comments: Love to hear this one “live” in a seedy bar somewhere on Route 66….Pretty traditional stuff with no real surprises, but such strong lyrics you can’t help have fun with it. Love the background vocals…”Rock Rock”…almost has a 30’s feel to it…maybe it’s the singer…he could do this with a use and call it a day…good work.

Constructive Comments: Nothing really needed to correct…just not very original I suppose…predictable…but still fun.

Song: Tell Me

Reviewer: Zundeep

Positive Comments: Took me right back to all the smooth R&B songs of the 90’s. Great hook and fits this type of genre perfectly. The voice has a great velvet smooth sound and matches the music well. The power in the voice was admirable and well balanced with the falsetos. Grab a glss of wine (or scotch) and sit back.

Constructive Comments: nothing negative to share.

Broadjam Artist: CaiNo
Song: Rewind

Reviewer: Zundeep

Positive Comments: Great vocals, smooth and great on the ears. The music is so nice and laid back I was grooving to the song. Great song to play in the background when chilling out and relaxing.Mucianship is solid. I enjoyed the melodies with the vocals and backing vocals. A great R&B song.

Constructive Comments: Nothing negative to say. For todays music market this song may be a bit “too real” if that makes any sense. Good job!

Broadjam Artist: Denis Hackett
Song: Teardrops From The Sky

Reviewer: Zundeep

Positive Comments: Instrumentation was wonderful, musicianship great. Gave me a rainy day in the streets of the city feeling. Great singer and vocals match music perfectly. Very easy listening. This would appeal across ages due to the easy listening nature of this song. Leaves you with a good feeling. Piano and vocals were great throughout, but especially nice as the outro to the song.

Constructive Comments: None really. Great song. Good work.

Broadjam Artist: Bob Bentley
Song: What If You’re Wrong = Original Version

Reviewer: Zundeep

Positive Comments: Great great guitar work! Song recorded very well. Sounds very well balanced. Love the scaling guitar in the background and all the little guitar pieces here and there. For me the highlight was the music. The vocals are perfect for this sound. The vocals have that wisdom needed to sing these types of lyrics. The audience this is written for will probably connect with the message.

Constructive Comments: Too long for marketability in todays market. This song is more like art than radio play quality if that makes sense? The type of music that will have a tight solid fan base following based on the emotional connection to the music. I personally am not a fan of music with a deep message because my day job is already very heavy. But I appreciate that the attention paid to the lyrics will hit a lot of people where they need it. A song for the real lost souls.
