Broadjam Artist: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Song: Reflections

Reviewer: Bob Birthisel

Positive Comments: Very smooth, comforting listen. The recording is super-clean and the keyboard sound is deep and lush as is the acoustic guitar. Really nice New Age tune. With a couple of tweaks this could easily be used in a film/TV scene.

Constructive Comments: As a 20+ year professional drummer, I found the percussion out of balance (too loud, too busy), and I think a more subtle remix would do wonders for this.

Reviewer: Caden

Positive Comments: Loved it! Had a real 80’s feel to it that I loved. The guitar work really brings me in as you can hear several dynamic changes that keep you on your toes. Vocalist has a very solid and unique sound that leaves me wanting more. Great arrangement overall.

Constructive Comments: No criticism at all! Loved every second.

Positive Comments: Loved it! This music takes you on a journey from beginning to end. I highly recommend listening with headphones so you can hear all the ear candy! Excellent instrumentation. Loved the arrangement as well.

Constructive Comments: My only criticism is that I want to hear more music! lol Keep up the great work and tell as many stories with your music as possible!

Broadjam Artist: Fred Kimmel
Song: Spiral

Reviewer: Caden

Positive Comments: Loved it!!! It almost brought me back to the early 90’s in a sense. Silverchair vibe for sure. Great guitar riffs. Fun structure. Solid rock vocals. All around great song. Keep up the incredible work!

Constructive Comments: No criticism. I was rocking out to this in my living room and even whipped out the air guitar. Keep up the great work!

Broadjam Artist: Caden
Song: Come Clean

Reviewer: Bob Nesom

Positive Comments: What can I say? This is wonderfully done. Love the lead vocals and how the good lyrics are sung. Prestine job.

Constructive Comments: I would love to hear harmony…female voice would be perfect. I would put some breath in it with some keys, perhaps even an electric violin. Keep on rockin you rocker. Great job.

Broadjam Artist: Ante Novaselic
Song: Creepin’

Reviewer: Bob Nesom

Positive Comments: I really like this, great piece. Great sound to the guitar…great groove.

Constructive Comments: I actually wouldn’t change a thing, but layer it with other instruments. Although it is an instrumental…why not oohs or ahs periodically…the way it is sung, etc could suggest the meaning you are aiming for. Overall, I enjoyed this. Take care. Keep on rockin.

Broadjam Artist: Patrick E. Muth/Catnip Pat
Song: TRAIN ON THE TRACK

Reviewer: Bob Nesom

Positive Comments: I love the earthy down bluesy rock sound. Arrangement is good so are the lyrics.

Constructive Comments: Instrumentation is fine but when a song is on the longer side I think there should be more variety of instrumentation or perhaps a story to the lyrics. Having additional singers than you would really sweeten the song, perhaps a couple of females. Overall, I really like your approach and enjoyed the song.

Song: Armor of God

Positive Comments: Clean recording and production.

Constructive Comments: This theme has a limited appeal to those of us not involved with Christian music, but you’ve gotta expect that in the music business. Can’t please everyone all the time.
