Song: Good getting up morning

Reviewer: The Song Writers

Positive Comments: I love the premise as Christian Man I can relate… It has good a original vibe with an analog flare. I love these types of genre to play in the shop at work because of it’s welcoming and has a sociable appeal. great job dude, TSW.

Constructive Comments: Might want to do another recording with some different drums. Perhaps to make it sound a bit cleaner with the symbols and drum kit, but I still like what ya got, TSW.

Song: Shout To Jesus

Reviewer: Patrick E. Muth

Positive Comments: A Little mixed here. too much drum for my taste but who can judge?

Constructive Comments: Interesting music. I can see you are on track and excited about your music. Its A 1/2 beat and the drums should settle down to that–would add to the vibe!Good Luck with your Music! Catnip

Broadjam Artist: Charlie Shock
Song: THE WAY LIFE GOES (performed by GORD MAXWELL)

Reviewer: Kitty Matkins

Positive Comments: Congratulations on a great delivery of the instrumentation and vocals. I really liked the home, and the Jimmy Buffet- like theme. Very marketable, for beach or country styles. I would definitely love this song to beach bands ask them to add some horns.

Constructive Comments: Nothing much to say here that would be constructive, except what I’ve said before about marketing your song to wider audiences .Very very very good vocals. Sounds like you’ve already play professionally , … for many years.

Broadjam Artist: Nigel Barrett
Song: The Day That They Came

Reviewer: Randal Dunkle

Positive Comments: I like the introduction and the sound of the drums. I also like the lead vocals and the sound effects.

Constructive Comments: Very touching song, I really don’t fully understand it though and maybe that’s a good thing because it keeps the listener guessing – best wishes!

Broadjam Artist: Uncle Spider & The Electric Dirt Clods
Song: The Wonder Of Autum

Reviewer: Mark R. Harris

Positive Comments: it was a good attempt at writing a tune….a good start

Constructive Comments: the main problem with this tune is it meandered too much from establishing a memorable theme or a hook…i just couldn’t latch onto anything…some of the midi instruments just sounded a little thin and fake…it also ended rather abruptly , in my opinion….keep writing man!

Broadjam Artist: Sam Cooper
Song: 100 TEARS FROM NOW (featuring Melissa DuVall)

Reviewer: Mark R. Harris

Positive Comments: wow, very impressive …a really good listen…i dug the instrumentation , the quality of the vocals, the lyric…just really well done…It definitely had a Patsy Cline or K.D. Lang kind of vibe to it…I”m basically a “jazz head” from my early days, but have played with Mel Tillis and other classic country artists, and can really appreciate what you’ve done here.. I wish there was a market for this genre now…great job!

Constructive Comments: damn, i got nothing bad to say..

Broadjam Artist: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Song: Children of the World

Reviewer: Floyd Kelly

Positive Comments: There are some very nice transitions in this Unique – Middle Eastern track. Although, I confess, I do not know the language of the vocalist – taking into account the rhythm, skilled instrumentalists, a nice mixing and mastering and with some clever transitions in the composition – skirting on the jazz genre and enticing with a sense of mystery – I must say, I really enjoyed listening to this craftsmanship.

Constructive Comments: This is very unique and I enjoyed listening to this in my review. I played this several times because it is very enjoyable! We gave the personnel in the “Complaints Department” and “Constructive Comments Department” the day off. Have a grand day!

Broadjam Artist: Nigel Barrett
Song: The Grace of God (instrumental)

Reviewer: Kevin Winkel

Positive Comments: I thought it was terrific! Really good instrumentation choices. Great job!

Constructive Comments: I thought the hand claps would have benefited from more reverb to mesh better. Purely preference.
