Song: Red Ruby Slippers

Reviewer: JllVMINVTI

Positive Comments: I definitely like the arrangement and overall composition of the song structure. But overall, the beat is simple and catchy enough for you to write a better song to hook people. Other than that, great job, you have Great potential. I really liked it, but I am looking at it from the general perspective/pov. Keep it up!!

Constructive Comments: However, there was no clear structure to the singing, it seemed kinda free-form/Jazz to me, and there was not a recognizable hook. For this to be Marketable, there needs to be a clear intro, verse/build-up, and chorus. Maybe a bridge if needed to connect any sections.Trust me, I love the creativity, but I would suggest honing it down and perfecting it into something more structured and palatable to general audiences, if that is your intended audience. One other very important thing: Sound SelectionAll your sounds sounded stock and generic. Although I said there was solid composition and arrangement, the sounds themselves were not at all good. They sounded very “factory-preset” and I could obviously tell you used a drum loop through-out the beat. Invest in a producer that will make you a beat that sounds live and exciting. This beat, while nice, was by no means exciting.

Reviewer: Jeff Maguire

Positive Comments: Very nicely put together piece of music, gives a sense of impending good things, arrangement is all very well thought out with a nice build up of intensity. use of the shift to a ride is well placed. Would make good driving music.

Constructive Comments: There was one note about 3:03 that sounded , well, to my ear, squanky … ie … out of place, not the right scale … other than that it flows very well and sounds good. Good work.
