Song: Ferlorn

Reviewer: Fulvio Ferrari

Positive Comments: I like the contrast between piano arpeggios and upper synth line pretty straight and stable!

Constructive Comments: In general I like the mood of the Song! I might have changed the melody at some point, to give more surprise to the listener, but I like the piano part! Furthermore, I might have changed some sounds, and maybe I might have worked around expression and dynamics a little more, although the final result is pretty nice! Good job!

Song: Love You Back

Reviewer: HAWC

Positive Comments: I enjoyed this and would use it for various weddings i DJ just to have something else thats elegant, tasteful and fills the room with something original yet hints at familiarity. it’s simplistic, yet just enough difference in it to keep it far from boring, it’s light and comforting! I LOVE IT!!

Constructive Comments: I’m still not the greatest at pulling apart the difference of violin vs. viola, but ever the lead instrument is kept confusing me, meaning I wasn’t sure if it was authentic or digital interpretation of the instrument. Not to knock it at all, but I kept listening wondering if I could pick up at least a slight bounce of the bow, but it never came. I’m addicted to the art of simplicity, so whether real ensemble or not…it won me over!

Song: just for now (2007)

Reviewer: Groove Fondue

Positive Comments: Nice groove going on for sure. Love the instrumentation, the mix sounds good. Like that you bring in various lead instruments in and out, keeps it fresh and interesting to the ears. Nice back beat happening with the percussion and the base, gives it a lot of drive. Just a very good effort all around.

Constructive Comments: Wouldn’t change a thing, liked it very much.

Broadjam Artist: Rafe Finesse
Song: If you Let Me

Reviewer: Groove Fondue

Positive Comments: Nice instrumental. Like the guitar sound very much, Wah Wah Watson of Motown fame would be proud of you. Good mix, everything is where it should be, all the instruments sound good. Love the laid back feel of it, just a nice simple groove.

Constructive Comments: Wouldn’t change a thing. Enjoyed it very much.

Broadjam Artist: Groove Fondue
Song: Believe in Love

Reviewer: HAWC

Positive Comments: I think everything here was executed very well. While delivering a message we all need to hear over and over again in various ways around the world, it reminded me of an era of music initially triggered in the 60’s and brought back again by a modern day pop band as a tribute nod to say the message lives on but the similar instruments, but a fresh vessel to express it.

Constructive Comments: While I’m guilty of using keyboard instruments through a lot of my own work, I would maybe see if theres a way to get some even more authentic horns in there. The ones here aren’t bad at all, but being an avid synth and keyboard player myself they tend to stand out to my ear making me wish they were a little better. along with the choir. Again in I’ve done the same, so I know how it is when there’s a limited access to talent. I’ve finally started to accept that just because I CAN do it all, doesn’t mean it sounds the doin it, I just isn’t as rich as it could be, not at all terrible, just not AS rich. Yet still …NICE WORK! Inspiring!!!!

Song: You Got Me Into The Music

Reviewer: John Walradt

Positive Comments: Hey, this is full of pep and spice! I enjoy a a catchy tune you can hum to. That’s the strength of this song. The full orchestration softens the electric guitars and makes it almost a combination of rock and disco, and in this case, it works! I wouldn’t have it any other way. Very nice job.

Constructive Comments: Lyrically, it’s almost a cliche, an old theme like the “I got the Music in Me,” to where it’s not quite original as words go, but that’s a stupid bias I have so I refuse to let that affect the scoring. You’d be wise not to change things because I have to say it’s very hooky. I suspect a lot of people will really enjoy the heck out of it.

Song: Falling Deeper

Reviewer: John Walradt

Positive Comments: I love this kind of dream pop…etherial, haunting, soft, with very emotional lyrics. It has a very good melody with captivating orchestration. It’s just the kind of mood music to drift into. The vocals compliment the slow atmospheric melody very well. The song keeps my interest and would be a great album cut on an album full of interesting songs like this.

Constructive Comments: Be sure to keep copies of the original files and put them on different hard drives. That’s how good it is.
