Broadjam Artist: SPG~Man
Song: Speed of Life (Sax version)
Reviewer: Rich Goldin
Positive Comments: I’m not sure what to call this genre, but it is very weird. This isn’t a bad thing. The instrumentation is unique. Especially the use of a baritone sax (or keyboard sample) is original. The work appears to be part of something much longer, but again, I might be misinterpreting the composer’s intention. The minor mood reflected by the performance garners the listeners attention right away.
Constructive Comments: The work is short and seems as if it wants to develop into more sections. I’m not sure if the brief running time was intended by the composer or not. The groove is a bit tense and I’m wondering if a hit-hat was needed at all. Perhaps some lighter percussion devices might have worked better. All-in-all, a very interesting, weird, composition.
