Broadjam Artist: Nigel Barrett
Song: Saxametosis – real sax

Reviewer: Birthe Noer Myers

Positive Comments: The instruments converse in t his song without words. The drum chatters endlessly and the saxophone?? Clarinet ?? ( I am not a. musician, my metier is words ) yells its opinion with a shrill voice. It is a fun song, a pleasure to hear the tuneful and melodious “voices” of the instruments.

Constructive Comments: I like the song, I like the sounds the composer and musicians produce. I would like t o write words to Jazz music, it has such humor at its best.

Broadjam Artist: Charlie Shock
Song: BEE STING (performed by CAMERON DOBB)

Reviewer: Birthe Noer Myers

Positive Comments: I would so like to give this song a. higher score, it is very pleasant, and the voice is smooth and with what I could hear of the lyrics, which was not enough, enjoyable, but the drum beat was repetitive – though Jazz has room for wonderfully creative percussion. I can imagine that the lyrics may be clever and witty and that. together with the beat, it may be an amusing, tongue in cheek song, I hope it is.

Constructive Comments: Again, this song may deserve a much higher score than I have given it, gut I could not hear the. words.

Reviewer: Jeff Ashbaker

Positive Comments: Very natural and live performance full of feeling and hopefulness.Nice guitar playing, follows the singer wonderfully. Nice job.

Constructive Comments: Tambourine could have been just a tad up in the mix, for my taste and the tone of the guitar given a little more mellow fuller feel??

Broadjam Artist: Steve Dafoe – Songwriter
Song: Something Inside Of Me (Folk, Country – Alternative, Pop)

Reviewer: John Masarone

Positive Comments: A very nicely done intimate song that truly has market potential. I think I was seeing scenes of movies. Boy apart from girl coming to realization that she makes him complete. A perfect song for something like that. Nice job.

Constructive Comments: I listened to this tune on my studio monitors two times. I love the bare bones of it. One guitar, one voice. However, in the mix the vocal is real hot and way out front. A little softening with EQ and bring that fader down. Structure – There is a little too much repeating of the chorus especially at the end. Sort of, “I get it already,” and you don’t want your listeners feeling that. This is all my opinion. Still I gave the tune high marks because it deserves it. Good luck with it!
