Song: THE WAY LIFE GOES

Reviewer: Ante Novaselic

Positive Comments: I enjoyed listening to this track very much. It had a little bit of a Alanis Morisette vibe to it which I liked a lot. The singer has a cool voice and the instrumentation complimented nicely. Well done all together .

Constructive Comments: Nada to add

Broadjam Artist: Hartmut Oberdieck
Song: crazy horse

Reviewer: Jason Van Buren

Positive Comments: Great song

Constructive Comments: Great song

Broadjam Artist: Craig Bishop
Song: Heaven

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Smooth and melodic, with decent harmonies. The tone on the keyboard reminds me of The Beatles.

Constructive Comments: I feel like I’ve seen this movie before, just because of the topic but that’s personal taste. The only real issue I have with the song is the poor quality recording. Definitely sounds home-made and muddy with too much distortion on the instruments once everything kicks in.

Broadjam Artist: Randy Steward
Song: Sailin’ Man

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Has a bit of a Jimmy Buffett feel, very light and breezy.

Constructive Comments: The drums seemed out of tempo at times – especially the beginning when the song is at its most vulnerable, where you have to grab the listeners’ attention. I felt it was way too loose there.

Broadjam Artist: The Noted
Song: I’ve Got A Feeling

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Very happy, easy to listen song. The instruments are tight and it has a throwback 70’s Partridge Family vibe. Vocals fit the piece.

Constructive Comments: Not sure where this might fit into today’s music scene but might work for a period piece film or TV show taking place in that timeframe.

Broadjam Artist: Ladee V
Song: Hordes Marching Viola

Reviewer: Davide Salvan

Positive Comments: Great orchestral piece!

Constructive Comments: Everything is okay! just a little note. Maybe the choir is too high but I understand it can be an artistic choice.

Broadjam Artist: Earl.C.Webb
Song: WORTH LIVING (soundtrack)

Reviewer: Davide Salvan

Positive Comments: Great song and nice atmosphere!

Constructive Comments: Good electronic sounds and FX. The structure of the song is solid and well made.

Broadjam Artist: Sam Cooper
Song: SPIT ‘N GLUE (duet w/ Jenny Littleton and Sam Cooper)

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: A bit Lynyrd Skynyrd a bit Dolly Parton! Certainly different and loving the lyrics.

Constructive Comments: Sounds like an old recording so low score from me for recording only.

Broadjam Artist: Third Word
Song: Like The Wind

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Beautiful piano sound. Quality recording and production. Would be interesting to know if this was recorded at home. Sounds like something John Legend would release. I like the less is more. Wow the harmonies just hit me between the eyes (writing as I listen).

Constructive Comments: Top marks from me so nothing to add.

Broadjam Artist: Patrick E. Muth/Catnip Pat
Song: IF I DIDN’T HAVE YOU!

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Reminds me of many quirky songs from the 70’s, like those by Noosha Fox.

Constructive Comments: Certainly different! None to add!
