Song: Sepias Waltz

Reviewer: Randal Dunkle

Positive Comments: Very cool introduction, I like the sound of the piano and the cool keyboard sounds. I also like the bass guitar and the overall blend of the other sounds as well.

Constructive Comments: I like the song however, I think it would sound much better if the bass guitar was turned up and maybe at a lower frequency – best wishes!

Positive Comments: I like the way the song starts, very cool drums beats and sound effects. I like the keyboards and also the way the song ends.

Constructive Comments: I like the song except the drums beats occasionally sound out of sync, especially at the beginning part of the song – I also think the song would sound much better with a bass guitar – best wishes!

Reviewer: Dana and Brad

Positive Comments: I really like the ambient, easy listening feel of this song. It communicates an overall feeling of peace and calm. The lyrics make a lovely contribution to the overall smooth feel of this piece. Also, your voice is gorgeous and and your tone is a pleasure to listen to. Well done! Can’t wait to hear more from you. 🙂

Constructive Comments: I really enjoyed everything about this song from the lyrics to the vocal quality, to the nice use of instrumentation that perfectly fits the feel of the song. My only suggestion would be to kick up the harmonies throughout. I heard a but here and there and I loved it. I some added harmony could kick this song up to the next level. Well done!

Song: Passport to Power Instrumental

Reviewer: Dana and Brad

Positive Comments: The production quality on this song is excellent. The instrumentation is super catchy and very well done. I also really like how nicely this song builds without being too overwhelming. It nicely keeps me engaged without any portion of the song being too intense. The arrangement is perfect for advertisement purposes or commercials.

Constructive Comments: I really don’t have much in the way of constructive criticism for this song. Not only are the instrumentals and arrangement spot on but the song is super versatile. It invokes a wide array of emotions and would ft very nicely in everything from your basic TV commercial to a comedy, or even a movie trailer. Lovely instrumental piece!

Broadjam Artist: Mitch Siegal
Song: Time To Fly

Reviewer: Jimmy Joe Lee

Positive Comments: I very much like the sound of this recording. I confess I had difficulty understanding the lyrics so I could not come up with a title. The ingredients are here to bake the cake.I’d love to do the mixing. The backing track has excellent emotional appeal.I don’t know how much was guitar and how much was synth but ultimately it makes no difference. The singer has an engaging vocal quality. It fits the track nicely. Good dynamics between the softer vs the louder parts.

Constructive Comments: I think the intro guitar fails to set up the track that follows. That’s an easy correction and worth the effort. It doesn’t do the song damage, however, so if the producer likes it… not a problem. I’d like a tad more presence on the vocal not buried so much in the track. The vocal has an interesting quality. I’d like to hear it more clearly. Its not as though the singer needs to be hidden in the bushes. As I said, the vocal has an interesting quality. The ending is a little ragged.No big deal but the recording is worth the effort. Sail on…
