Positive Comments: The guitars sound great. The vocals are good. The drums drive really good. The bass really kicks butt. I like what you are doing here. I like the changes in this song. The dynamics are very good.

Constructive Comments: Great song. I like the sound of it. I had a hard time making out the lyrics. I would suggest trying to get the vocals to stand out in the mix a little more. Great vocals. Try to create a little more of a hole for them in the mix. I love what you are doing though,keep it up

Reviewer: Signal 30

Positive Comments: I like the rhythm and the sound of this song. The changes were really good. The vocals sound good. I like the background instruments also. Pretty neat tune. I like it.

Constructive Comments: The only thing I would suggest is to get the vocals to stand out a little more. Maybe a little less effects and add some more edge to them. Other than that I think it’s a great song. Good luck with it!!!

Positive Comments: Sounds like you were having some fun….but

Constructive Comments: the song could use a bit more dynamics…more instrumentation maybe to kick it up a bit…bring it alive!

Broadjam Artist: IBP
Song: In Spite Of All

Reviewer: HarryBudini

Positive Comments: I think it’s got a notable commercial potential. The vocal performance is very tuneful, which is very fortunate being the only sound in the record beside a piano, and the singer tries to express a certain intensity. It’s an intimistic ballad.

Constructive Comments: Trite and syrupy lyrics married with heavily sentimental and mournful music can be excruciating for unsensitive gits like me.

Broadjam Artist: Chet Nichols
Song: I’m A Lucky Man

Reviewer: Jeff Maguire

Positive Comments: Very well written country/rock tune. Well performed, hook is strong, guitars sound very nice.

Constructive Comments: Drums come across as light in a few spots, maybe it’s just the use of the rim I don’t like. Vocals maybe be a little pitchy in spots, not a lot, just a little, vocal tone is good.

Broadjam Artist: Peter Toussaint
Song: Sunrise

Reviewer: James Neilson Graham

Positive Comments: Lots of unexpected dissonances give piquancy to what feels like an ‘easy listening’ kind of piece. Mood and tempo are steady and reassuring. I liked the introduction of semi-quavers in the second half which adds interest. Nice playing.

Constructive Comments: On its own terms it works well.

Broadjam Artist: Tom Reardon
Song: Changed My Life

Reviewer: IBP

Positive Comments: Nice smooth lyrics, passing together with the melody and composition of the song.

Constructive Comments: Although the theme of the song is far too common – pitch the song as soon as possible to a producer!!!

Broadjam Artist: Randal Dunkle
Song: Who’s gonna turn on a light

Reviewer: IBP

Positive Comments: Perfect for Religious TV-Show. Very original lyrics.

Constructive Comments: The vocals in the recording are too deep and the sound isn’t can be improved.
