Broadjam Artist: Paul Messina
Song: Omni Play

Reviewer: Steven Furr

Positive Comments: This is a very cool track. Love the voices/vocals. The sax solo is a nice un-expected surprise, and very well played. Very nice moody transitions, played spot-on! A very easy composition to enjoy. The recording is so transparent with a lot of air and space. I would be very curious at where the recording was made, a pro studio or at a home studio.

Constructive Comments: Broadjam wants me to offer constructive criticism, but I can not come up with anything that would improve this track. The mood is set perfectly. Everything is on pitch and on beat. No missed notes or awkward moments. Promote it as is. I can’t imagine anyone needing to change anything about it.

Broadjam Artist: Ober Rivers And His DUI’S
Song: Big Blue

Reviewer: Steven Furr

Positive Comments: Nice powerful rock track. Good recording and very nice guitar work. I like the transition at :37 and as it repeats through the song. This would be a great backing track in a movie or commercial. A lot of great ambient effects.

Constructive Comments: The only thing I might change is to let the bass follow the chord changes on one of the bridges. This would help break up the the song and add some flavoring. Otherwise, great job!

Broadjam Artist: Earl.C.Webb
Song: SHAME ON YOU

Reviewer: Ober Rivers And His DUI’S

Positive Comments: Shades of Steely Dan. Very nice chord changes and melody, fun lyrics, in a grooving blues rant, can definitely see this working in a lot of places, not least of all a dance floor full of people grooving.

Constructive Comments: As above, very well written tune in a 70’s jazz/rock/funk style. Well performed, not much to be critical of. Well, maybe 35 years to late to be a pop hit, that’s about it.

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Ashbaker
Song: I Still Ain’t Heard My Music

Broadjam Artist: Bobby Caputo
Song: The Third To Know

Reviewer: rodj

Positive Comments: Like the first six words of the hook. The melody that goes with these words complement them. As I am typing this these words are ring in my ears. Like the concept – third to know. Liked the guitar intro and the way the bridge slipped in effortlessly.

Constructive Comments: I had a problem with picking up some of the lyrics. Not sure if the singer was to soft or if it was the diction. Thought the words gracefully and magically felt a bit awkward and cumbersome … kind of killed the flow of the lyrics.
