Reviewer: MGB

Broadjam Artist: Toni Fournier
Song: Used To Be Real

Reviewer: Ante Novaselic

Positive Comments: Real, Is there any other way to be? You ask a good question with your lyrics. Bravo!! I like the lyrics to this song and your vocal approach. Good tonality in your voice. The acoustic was recorded very well and played well too. All in all good stuff here. I hope I get to review more of your music.

Constructive Comments: Nothing to add here!

Reviewer: Douglas Branson aka dB+1

Positive Comments: I really dig this tune – and was waiting for the vocals to kick in. There is some really good playing here. Digging the production, and wow on the gritty heavy guitar. I am a huge fan of the thick synths…Bravo on “That Sound” – SO there is a really kicking good groove and am going back for a second listen. THANK YOU.

Constructive Comments: I think as is would be a really nice tune in a tv show and or film. Very Anthem-etic

Broadjam Artist: Toni Fournier
Song: Inside Of Me

Reviewer: Sam Look

Positive Comments: I thought this had potential. The vocal echos feel dated and I think your vocal recording could use a more modern approach. It just feels a little too dated. However, the lyrics seem nice and the overall emotion is there. Looking forward to future songs. Cheers! Sam

Constructive Comments: See above comments

Song: Around 270

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Some lovely arranging in this track – and beautifully played/programmed. Congratulations!

Constructive Comments: Please tell me if the bass is real or synth. If real it’s awesomely played. If synth – my god they sound good now!

Broadjam Artist: Junior Murrell
Song: Flight

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: I liked the unusual sounds chosen for the backing of the tune, although that said after the first few repetitions I did yearn for a change in another direction. The backing reminds me a little of the tremendous backing track behind Mica Paris’ track Carefree which I think you’ll lilke if you haven’t heard it.

Constructive Comments: Lack of variation results in the low score from me for arrangement. Needs re-visiting to add more dynamic.

Broadjam Artist: Mag Pie
Song: Temptation

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Interesting from the outset. Different gets my attention every time. I score a lot of tunes fairly highly on originality but this type of tune really IS original. A bit like Army of Me by Bjork which blew me away when I first hard that incredible tune!

Constructive Comments: Nothing to add. I like the subtlety of the make up of this tune.

Broadjam Artist: Steve Dafoe – Songwriter
Song: Your Day Of Reckoning (Adult Contemporary)

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Nice vocal on this and I like the unusual step syllable words – very effective and unusual. Lovely harmonies too. Understated chorus is special.

Constructive Comments: Is there a more complete version on here? Bass and a rhythm section would work, or an orchestral part to build the body of the tune. Low score from me for this reason is for arrangement.
