Broadjam Artist: Charlie Shock
Song: LYING

Reviewer: Kate Carpenter

Positive Comments: Here’s a “we ought to break up, but why go to the trouble” song. I really like the way the writer tackled this subject. Some people think it’s better to have someone than no one, so they keep on pretending it’s working…but it’s really not. Very original approach and nicely communicated in this catchy song. Love the harmonies and instrumentation. Production was nicely done. I like the way then ending didn’t resolve…just like the relationship.

Constructive Comments: I’m trying to figure out what group you remind me of. I’m 65 and you remind me of SOMEONE’s music that I listened to on the radio when I was a kid, but I’m too old to remember, ha ha. Good job! Keep up the good work!

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Roberts
Song: Visitation

Reviewer: Kate Carpenter

Positive Comments: Very creative electronic track, probably perfect for a video game. Amazing sounds put together in a crazy fashion. You might need a seat belt when you listen to this one. I’m expecting a monster to jump out at me any minute!

Constructive Comments: I don’t know how you soundtrack guys come up with this stuff.

Broadjam Artist: Jeff Maguire
Song: Cola Nuts

Reviewer: Kate Carpenter

Positive Comments: If you like horns played in a creative, jazzy way, this is a fun track to listen to. It has a childlike quality to it at times.

Constructive Comments: At times the horns seemed dissonant to me, but I think that’s what you were aiming at.

Broadjam Artist: Massimo Carola
Song: Manname l’ammore

Reviewer: Kate Carpenter

Positive Comments: Nothing like a great, passionate vocal sung with clarity! Even though I cannot understand the language/lyrics, she had me hooked. The instrumentation, percussion, and production on this track are stellar. Makes me want to see a professional dancer dance to this amazing tune!

Constructive Comments: I don’t really see any way you could improve this! You did a fantastic job. WOO HOO!

Song: Takin’ Enough Time

Reviewer: Jeff Ashbaker

Positive Comments: Real pleasant tune that drifts along like a feather. Particularly liked the guitar work and the high part in the vocal mid way thru.

Constructive Comments: Nothing to add here
