Broadjam Artist: Hartmut Oberdieck
Song: deep in my heart reloaded

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: I would like to put lyrics to this track. Potential for a nice melody here. I’ll be looking out for more of your material.

Constructive Comments: Since this is a instrumental track I need to hear the guitar a bit more upfront and also a bit thicker. Sounds a bit thin. Parallel compression would do wonders here on the guitar track. Either plain compression or a pitch shifter on the other track.

Broadjam Artist: Bob Bentley
Song: What If You’re Wrong = Original Version

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: I like this song and the overall feel of the song. Has a Foreigner or 70’s rock feel. I would add a few things here and there to take it to the next level. Good guitar parts.

Constructive Comments: If I was producing this song I’d add a harmony part or background vocal to the chorus underneath the lead vocal. That would punch up the chorus quite a bit. Also as far as the mix it’s a bit dark. It needs a bit of clarity. Good work though, I enjoyed it.

Broadjam Artist: StarburstRecords
Song: 34. Guilt

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: Nice song and interesting lyrics. Has a rock metal feel. I dug the song and the overall feel. Good strong arrangement that fit the lyric and intent. Good work and keep it up!

Constructive Comments: Not much to add except maybe add BV to the chorus to punch it up even more. It’s a good song and adding more here would be nitpicking. Great work!

Broadjam Artist: Greg Lambert
Song: Bad Kitty

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: Nice 70’s vibe on this song and I would’ve loved to hear the song go somewhere else.

Constructive Comments: This sounds like an unfinished song to me. Need to take the song somewhere else after that first verse with drums and guitar. That’s when the bass should’ve came in and then add something else on the chorus like an electric gtr and then you have a good song.

Broadjam Artist: Toni Fournier
Song: I’m Missin’ You

Reviewer: Rodney Morgan

Positive Comments: Very nice, good solo break. Very well arranged.

Constructive Comments: Maybe raise the level of the solo a bit.

Broadjam Artist: Groove Fondue
Song: When it comes

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: This has a 70’s vibe which is my favorite era for music. Love all the instrumental breaks. Just like the good old days. Good playing, mix and lead work. I would like to hear more from you guys for sure!

Constructive Comments: The main thing here for me are the lyrics. I would’ve liked to have more clarity about what is “when it comes”. What is it? Give us a clue or a hint. That would definitely make this song stronger. If you added that it would be a very good song. Musically you guys did great now focus a bit more on the lyrics.

Broadjam Artist: The Noted
Song: No Rush (instrumental)

Reviewer: Rodney Morgan

Positive Comments: Great song, very well arranged. Fun to listen to.

Constructive Comments: No comment, it’s really good.

Broadjam Artist: Ladee V
Song: Last Night I

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: Great recording production and mix. Very creative arrangement. I definitely would like to hear your other material. Great work!

Constructive Comments: Only thing to add here here is that I would like to hear a stronger hook. But I have a feeling this was not meant to be a full length song but rather a commercial spot or something promotional as it was fairly short.

Broadjam Artist: Uncle Spider & The Electric Dirt Clods
Song: Once Before You Walk Out / Rock Alt

Reviewer: Rodney Morgan

Positive Comments: Great intro. Nice clean guitar sound.

Constructive Comments: I’d suggest a bridge or solo break. If it’s meant to be an instrumental than maybe a melody track.

Broadjam Artist: Patrick E. Muth/Catnip Pat
Song: BEFORE THE WORLD STOPS SPINNIN!

Reviewer: Marcel

Positive Comments: I get the vibe and what’s been done here but lyrics are tough to hear so tough to judge. Good effort here. Keep it going!

Constructive Comments: The BV seem as loud as the lead vocals and they’re quite pitchy. I realize this is a live recording but I would work on your mix before putting it up.
