Broadjam Artist: Lori Jennerjohn
Song: Great Mess

Reviewer: The Song Writers

Positive Comments: It’s hard to follow without instrumentation to help regulate pitch control – never changes though out the arrangement and you should create a bridge to help the structure of this potential and worthy song……

Constructive Comments: Please incorporate instrument(s)…..for the next take….

Broadjam Artist: Dave Mason
Song: Torquil Telfer’s Farewell to the Oban Bay

Reviewer: James Neilson Graham

Positive Comments: Quirky take on folky (Irish?) music with the kind of harmonic progressions more usually found in light classical music. The fusion is delightful. Is it accordion on the melody? Well-composed string counter-melody towards the end adds interest. Fun piece.

Constructive Comments: Drums/percussion a little ponderous at transition moments perhaps but overall very enjoyable.

Broadjam Artist: Moonstone Moods
Song: Lament

Reviewer: Floyd Kelly

Positive Comments: We are airing out the house today after a long winter and the spring breezes are flowing through the mountains, filling our house with the aroma of terra. I wanted some nice music to fill the house. I found this lovely musical in the Classical – Contemporary genre, the music fits right in creating a nice atmosphere on this early spring day in the mountains. This music would also do well in the New Age genre.

Constructive Comments: I like the piano and that backing guitar. Creates a nice atmosphere. I think the flute could have been softer. The vocal is a really nice touch to this. I was hoping for more of the vocal. 🙂 The repetitive nature of the backing (steel guitar?) could use a change up. The tubular bell could have moved far right in the mixing with reverb the sound did not seem natural. I took off marks in Arrangement and Hook after hearing this two times, the piece seems to need more to be complete as a composition – perhaps providing a solo or respite in the piece to make it more dramatic and dynamic. Please remember, until now, we have never heard this we do not know the artist or how this was made. We hope you have a great day.
