Broadjam Artist: Uncle Spider & The Electric Dirt Clods
Song: I’d Break All The Rules / Rock & Roll

Reviewer: Douglas Branson aka dB+1

Positive Comments: Digging the guitar outa the gate. Interesting progressions and picking. If the mix was better I would say – ok ready for a film soundtrack. Add some bass to this (even with guitar). A good song idea. Sounds like the track was laid out in the moment. Ok going to give another listen. btw – Your timing and guitar playing is very good, and I want to hear more of your music. at 2 mins I love the riff, over an over – Some elements and influences from some of my favorite guitarists.

Constructive Comments: This sounds like a song in idea stage. Guitarist with drum machine going. This is how inspiration is captured. Excellent. Flesh this one out, as there are some good things happening here. I feel like I am being pulled thru a journey….Thank you…Closing my eyes now – the stars and cosmos are gliding thru my senses. The guitar is driving me home. A little EQ on the guitar to brighten would help, as is a little muddy (my opinion). THANK YOU – Good Luck with this one.

Broadjam Artist: Chet Nichols
Song: Paradise (was #1 Rock-Americana)

Reviewer: Jeff Maguire

Positive Comments: Well arranged and melodic pop/rock with a bit of country thrown in for good measure. Solid vocal performance and good movement between the sections.

Constructive Comments: As above, I think the main hook /refrain could stand by itself in a commercial setting as bg music. Overall the lyrics come across as a little schizophrenic , both down and up, but that may be the intent. For straight up commercial reasons it might want to be a little shorter and more succinct.

Broadjam Artist: David J. Hentosh
Song: Secrets

Reviewer: Mark S. Ludes (MSL)

Positive Comments: Nice groove…bit of the blues…. rocking it’s way… mix is a bit buried… but has a good grooveliked the backing vocals…good harmonies

Constructive Comments: song has a good groove… the recording / mix is a bit buried… would help with a re-mix bringing the whole level up so it kicks a bit better…and clean up the mix to accent the clarity of voices, and the instruments…. keep on groovin’

Broadjam Artist: Clark Ford
Song: You’re Missing Me

Reviewer: Mark S. Ludes (MSL)

Positive Comments: Nice smooth song…good vocals… with some good background music…. song has a good easy feel to it…

Constructive Comments: it is good, but it might work with a bit of an edit…less words… goes on quite awhile with the lyrics… almost a storybook, instead of a song… nice singing and playing but just thinking it is a bit drawn out…
