Positive Comments: Very smooth! Gives me a Sting meets Manson vibe in the song-writing.The guitar touch at around 2:10 is very cool.

Constructive Comments: I wouldn’t call this progressive rock, but it is still very good. Some parts have a distinct country touch.The refrain should play out a bit more for my taste.

Song: Cayman Island Shuffle (Rock-Production Rock)

Reviewer: Bhaskar_The_Maximalist

Positive Comments: Funky, hell yeah!!! I like the way the lead guitar entered the game. Nice drum rolls.

Constructive Comments: It would be sooooo much cooler if the bass was actually played on a good 5-string with slapping. That would take it to a new level!Please consider making the drums funkier (hi-hats can be very useful for this, using alternate hits, for instance).I think a breakdown after the first guitar solo section would increase the appeal opf this song to me.

Broadjam Artist: MGB
Song: ANSWER MAN

Reviewer: Bhaskar_The_Maximalist

Positive Comments: Straight and direct. Reminds me of Ozzy’s later music. The solo is simple and good, serves the purpose. Vocals are very different from what one gets to hear these days.

Constructive Comments: If this was a bit higher in tempo, I can imagine it being useful for TV shows.This is more rock than progressive rock, because of the lack of time changes, tonal straightness, the way the bass is played.Work on the drum programming a bit more.COnsider adding backing vocals. There is so much scope for harmonics in the refrain other than just the “tell me why” part.

Song: The One

Reviewer: 20 Minute Mission

Positive Comments: Upbeat pop/rock. The singer has a bit of “The Veronicas” vibe. Superb opening, I really enjoyed the slow build from guitar to guitar/vocals to full band. A really fun song.

Constructive Comments: This is a real quality arrangement. I think you balance between single and dual vocals phenomenally. I wouldn’t make any changes. Well done

Broadjam Artist: SRJ
Song: Give Me One More Chance (Vocal House Mix), ft Leanne P

Reviewer: 20 Minute Mission

Positive Comments: Great driving beat. One of the best electronic house songs I have heard in quite a long time.

Constructive Comments: I really enjoyed your song. I wouldn’t change anything. I think you leave it open enough that you could remix it and create another piece that is true to the original but unique to itself. Well done.

Broadjam Artist: Kate Carpenter
Song: Passport to Power

Reviewer: 20 Minute Mission

Positive Comments: A fresh, upbeat Christian pop song. In a genre where lyrics can tend to get repetitive, the artist was able to keep it new and exciting. Well done.

Constructive Comments: At first I wasn’t sure about the amount of panning between left and right in the recording (i’m listening on headphone), but I feel like it actually makes the arrangement and each piece stand out. A bold move that I think paid off nicely for you. Well executed overall.

Broadjam Artist: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)
Song: Reflections

Reviewer: 20 Minute Mission

Positive Comments: I really enjoyed the opening, nice slow build. Strong arrangement, everything is balanced nicely. Beautiful melody.

Constructive Comments: I honestly wouldn’t change anything. Its balanced well, the song stays fresh throughout, which can sometimes be a struggle. Really fine piece of music. well done

Broadjam Artist: Fred Kimmel
Song: Just You and Me

Reviewer: 20 Minute Mission

Positive Comments: Really loved the layered acoustic guitars, the whole song is balanced nicely. Well done.

Constructive Comments: Solid mix, nothing really to fix. Song accomplishes what it needs. If you wanted to add anything, possibly a shaker that follows the high hat’s rhythm, but its not really needed.
