Broadjam Artist: Spitting Lama MIDI
Song: Azure Expanse

Reviewer: Tho’d Studio

Positive Comments: As the song starts, you get the feeling of waking up. As it goes on, it continues to build, almost giving the feeling of an ongoing accomplishment. This makes it ideal for and informative ad or commercial, like for a college or training. It would also be good for a coffee commercial, or something about starting your day. It’s length and dynamics give it a background music quality. The Sims is waiting.

Constructive Comments: The beat seems to be intended for ads or games due to the mix. Maybe a bolder mix, like more bass and harder drums, would make it more versatile on what you could use it for.

Broadjam Artist: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Song: Destined to Fly

Reviewer: Tho’d Studio

Positive Comments: Great job on the orchestration of the song. The brass has a natural sound, and the space is nice. I can hear this instrumental on a car commercial, or some sort of ad where the theme is luxury. There are pieces that would be perfect to a “mature” voice, or just as background music for a scene. And the guitar solo, 2 thumbs up!

Constructive Comments: The arrangement would be the only thing to adjust, if anything. That would only be because it would be mixed differently for it’s purpose. Maybe more bass for one ad, or less space for another.

Song: What Did I Miss? (Julie Burton)

Reviewer: Gladstone Avenue

Positive Comments: This song has a really great feel to it. The vocal and backing reflect the mood of the song. Nicely produced. I have always been an Olivia NJ fan, and here’s a voice that has some of the great qualities.BTW, the vocalist never missed pitch, something I admire. Good lyrics, better hook. Well done.Eager to see who the vocalist is.I also like the fact that the song did not go on and on. Perfect length.

Song: RIDE THOSE HORSES (performed by GORD MAXWELL)

Reviewer: Gladstone Avenue

Positive Comments: Seems like I reviewed this song at some point, but who cares. Love the flow of the lyrics…not a wasted word and the hook is really cool. I like the use of the vocal bridge. A well-honed song with great vocal and instrumentation. Keep riding those horses.Like the organ usage in the background.

Constructive Comments: No additional comment.

Broadjam Artist: Marc S. Pate
Song: Old Man

Reviewer: Gladstone Avenue

Positive Comments: Beautifully recorded. Love the vocal. Older people are so often dismissed and ignored in our society. Great to hear the lyrics express what we should all heed…respect for the elderly and gain from what they know. Instrumental is beautiful. Well done!

Constructive Comments: Have nothing to offer in this category! : )
