Song: SNOWTOWN IN MOTOWN (featuring Ray Dahrouge)

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Christmas smash! I liked the subtle bass pedal note towards the end of the 2nd verse.

Constructive Comments: Wanted to hear backing vocals and suddenly there they were. But they need to be MUCH louder in the mix they are almost lost. This could be a smash!

Broadjam Artist: B.Still
Song: CALIOPE’S REVERIE

Reviewer: Nigel Barrett

Positive Comments: Intro reminded me of some stuff by Flock of Seagulls from the 1980’s. Great soundscape! I’m green with envy! A bit Blade Runner too!

Constructive Comments: Nothing to add here it’s all good. I take it you are familiar with the pop/electronic act called BT? If not you must check him out.

Broadjam Artist: Bob Birthisel
Song: Powerful Anthemic Rock – INSTRUMENTAL EDIT

Reviewer: Phil Bouldry

Positive Comments: This is a well mixed, well performed, well recorded instrumental. It definitely sounds like it is all the instrument tracks from a song, that has had the vocal part muted. It is all ready for a lyric. There are good changes that help hold a listeners interest. Very important if there is no lyric. It sounds like maybe a Van Halen Voice would fit here. Nice lead work in the middle. Nice break with the bit of echo there. Nice symbol sound playing on the off beats in the middle there. The drums and bass drive the song right along. Cool ending!

Constructive Comments: Well, I guess, maybe add a killer lyric.

Broadjam Artist: Nigel Barrett
Song: Feel For Whitney

Reviewer: Phil Bouldry

Positive Comments: This song got me from the gitgo. The drums sound cool. The sax voice and melody is great. The melody is unique enough that I can’t say “It sounds just like ….(Fill in the blank) OOh nice glissando! The keyboard pads and voices are good, and well mixed just behind the sax voice. The recording is clear and clean and the instrumentation is fun and ear-catching.This instrumental evokes a feeling of excitement, that good things are about to happen.

Constructive Comments: I like this music and don’t have many suggestions for improvement. I do believe that it’s all electronic. I have been saying “sax voice” because I think it’s a synth sax. Although it’s pretty close, it is not as geneuinely saxxy as it could be.This song is great fun to listen to, and would make a great dance song. If it were done with real drums and a real sax and bass this song would be killer.
