Broadjam Artist: Uncle Spider & The Electric Dirt Clods
Song: Where’s Via / New Age

Reviewer: Ante Novaselic

Positive Comments: Not a bad tune overall. To my ears it has a renaissance kind of spirit with some folk influences and a dusting of classical as well. Not sure if New Age is the right genre for it 100% but i can see why it was put into a new age category.

Constructive Comments: I am pretty sure that this was recorded on some kind of tape machine. Maybe a TASCAM Porta-Studio or something similar. I remember my tape porta studio from years ago having the same kind of hiss and slight warble sound from the tape getting stretched out. Good job on the composition of this track but overall recording could use a little help.

Song: That’s What I Call Livin’

Reviewer: Jeff Cowhick

Positive Comments: Guitar lead sounded real great overall the vocals are sounding excellent!

Constructive Comments: I thought maybe the ‘nah nah nah’s’ sounded a little bland. Prob ably could have brought that up an octave or two.
