Broadjam Artist: Greg Lambert
Song: New Year’s Day

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: The song tells a story, it has been put together nicely, I can visualise the whole story, I like the lyrics, I like the subject, original sound, sometimes I think I almost hear hints of the 60’s sound. I like the song very much, song flows nicely.

Constructive Comments: I can hear all the lyrics, the vocals are clear, song flows, like the song structure, the performer reminds me of another artist. Repetitionis not over done, nice selection of instruments. Nice tempo, beat and vibe. I like the song.

Broadjam Artist: Keith Taylor
Song: We Don’t Need Another War

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: I like the subject and the lyrics, a song with a message, lyrics are very clear, vocals are clear, chorus has a catchy element, the sort of chorus that stays on the mind. I was humming along with the chorus in minutes. The song kept my attention. Like it

Constructive Comments: Lyrics are good, clear and flow, repetition is not over done, nice balance, song kept my attention, could hear this on the radio. Artist has a good voice, like the piano and guitar. I like the song, very nice, will have to listen to other songs by this artist.

Broadjam Artist: Jeana Potthoff
Song: Adrift

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: I love instrumental music especially if it paints a picture or can take my mind to another place or time. This piece can make me stop what I am doing and my mind could go to another place another time.This piece of music could evoke emotions. Very nice

Constructive Comments: I love the arrangement, and the thoughts that are provoked, it feels as if this piece of music should be in a film. Very good. Not sure about a title, but I feel this music fits a sad moment or a sad part in a film, I also like that it is a nice length.

Song: magical tumbleweed i

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: The song has a catchy element, and it reminds me of the theatre, I can visualise being in the theatre and hearing this song. The lyrics are clear and I like the piano, I could foot tap or hum to this.

Constructive Comments: The song is good, and different, and even though I have classed it as folk I can even see cabaret, love the touch with the dog having a part. I think I will be humming this for a while as the song stays in the head. Good one

Song: What About My Reward

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: Love the intro, and the instruments. Lyrics are clear and flow nicelyand the musical breaks are very good. A very good rock song.Reminds me of Nickleback, I can see this being performed on one of those big concert stages. This song is the type of song that would stick on the mind quickly.

Constructive Comments: The song got my attention straight away and I can see the video in my head while listening to the song. I like all the musical breaks and the lyric structure which has given me some ideas for future songs. Would be interesting to hear other songs from the artist.

Broadjam Artist: Hartmut Oberdieck
Song: one step

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Extremely well recorded, with pristine sound on the guitars and bass. Has a Mark Knopfler feel and sound. The drums and percussion were a bit background-ish but played nicely, in tempo, and they kept the easy groove going. Instrument separation in the headphones was a treat. Great job.

Constructive Comments: The only thing I didn’t care for (at all) was the tinny keyboard sound which stood out as a negative compared to the beautiful mix on all the other instruments. It’s particularly noticeable at 3:21 moving forward. I’d suggest re-doing the keyboard with a more natural piano/organ sound, or completely leaving it out of the mix. The song is excellent without it.

Song: I’ve Got My Telephone

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: I love the lyrics, love the subject, lyrics lovely and clear, love the drum beat, lyrics flow, I can imagine cruising and this song playing, I can imagine this in the background while shopping, in fact this song would distract me from what I am doing as I would have to dance to it, this type of song has that beat that makes me want to move to it.

Constructive Comments: I am no expert but I can’t fault anything, I love the solo music piece, the drum and guitar are great, I get hooked by the beat, a song that I would be putting on repeat it just grabs my attention. The song sums up life today very fitting.

Broadjam Artist: Margie & Art Corey
Song: BBQ Brawl Coreys NEW KILLER GUITARS

Reviewer: Strange World Music

Positive Comments: The song is catchy, I can see foot tapping to this, lyrics are clear and the melody flows nicely, the song does feel country honky tonk,I could easily put this on repeat, and I must say I like the performers voice, fits country well.

Constructive Comments: I think it is a great song, love the melody, and lyrics, loved the guitar and vocals, I can actually picture the video of people at a barbecue on that warm summer evening, I can also visualise line dancing to this song. There is an instrument that produces a twang in the song I love it.

Broadjam Artist: Douglas Branson aka dB+1
Song: This Beautiful Country

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Nice energy and there were some excellent dynamic changes. I particularly liked the chord progression which was interesting and unexpected. My favorite sound quality was the piano which really stood out.

Constructive Comments: Sounds a bit like a home recording for some reason. The mix wasn’t quite as clean as it might have been but I still enjoyed it a lot.
