Broadjam Artist: Randal Dunkle
Song: What Must I Do (Selsky/Dunkle)

Reviewer: Margie & Art Corey

Positive Comments: Wowza….What a terrific Rock Anthem sounding song!!! In-your-face huge Power Chords and melody, this tune musically is Spot-on!!! However…..I believe the Lead vocal could use some E-Q, I am having a difficult time understanding the words in places, so it’s hard to give the song a totally Over-The-Moon….Perfect score!! I think just make the Lead vocal clearer………and Voila…YOU HAVE A KILLER HIT!!!

Constructive Comments: Just E-Q the Lead vocal to hear the words and you’re Home Free! Still Love the tune!! Great Job!!!

Broadjam Artist: Richard Espinor
Song: Love Mania

Reviewer: Massimo Carola

Positive Comments: Great piano playing.

Constructive Comments: There are some harmony strange sounds and all is very mechanical. Boring if this should be a jazz performance. Jazz means interplay and dialog. I’m missing that.

Broadjam Artist: Lars Michnevich, a.k.a. Chief Inspector of “Bunko Squad”
Song: Bear Up

Reviewer: Jamie Ambrose

Positive Comments: Really arresting beginning – made me sit up and listen straight away. Very suited to soundtracking, I’d’ve said. Nice contrast in the slower middle part – good oboe sounds and harmonies going on. I like this a lot, especially as it resolves into more major keys later on towards the end. Shades of Copland. Really, really nice work.

Constructive Comments: Only thing that would make it better is to have it recorded by real instruments – and don’t we all wish we could afford that! Best of luck with this one. I do look forward to checking out more of your compositions – which is why I like doing these reviews: gets me to know more artists. All the best.
