Reviewer: Cassidy A. Maze

Positive Comments: I can see the scene in the movie that this song would play behind. Traveling band in the middle of America trying to get the message out – stay positive and make a few bucks to keep the dream alive.

Constructive Comments: The devil is always in the detail. can you describe the music man dilemma a little more?It would help cue in the listener to what a travelling band feels each night as they play their songs to different crowds in different towns.?keep up the nice work!

Song: 05. Tragedy

Reviewer: Cassidy A. Maze

Positive Comments: really nice instrumentation. Nice message for our current situation. ripping guitar leads.

Constructive Comments: Painting images of how we will use our strengths to overcome the tragedy in progress would be nice for an extended outro— I know that’s easier said than done.

Broadjam Artist: Hartmut Oberdieck
Song: open door reloaded

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Nice guitar tone, especially to start the track. It reminds me a lot of Jeff Beck or a Robin Trower slow jam. Good atmospherics and it was a nice, soothing listen. Probably would benefit from a greater dynamic range, but it was enjoyable.

Constructive Comments: The real fuzz-tone guitar break didn’t seem to work for me, but that’s just personal taste. Overall very nice tune.

Broadjam Artist: StarburstRecords
Song: 63. Ebony Eyes ft Michael Lusk

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Well-recorded and mixed, with appropriate instrumentation throughout. Really good balance. The energy is super-high. I think of this as a cross between Elvis and Huey Lewis & The News, and even though throwback rock/rockabilly isn’t my thing this is about as well done as could be for that genre.

Constructive Comments: I was surprised this song was listed as “Classic Rock” since that’s more a 60s/70s sound. My suggestion would be to re-categorize as Roots/Rock ‘N Roll but otherwise all good.
