Good job making the drum samples swing, it&#8217;s very hard to do jazz music without using live drums. Drums however are placed very well in the mix.  Pleasant song all the way down to the long fade.  I like the feel of the brush drum set.  You utilized your sounds and vibe extraordinarily on this piece, really created an ambiance of mystic, sex appeal and intrigue.<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>Sounds like maybe a lot of samples used in this song. Mix is slightly bassy, could use a little less bass overall and the bass guitar is slightly about the other instruments. The vocal is not very clear, could use something to give it a little more bite&#8230; more compression and a slight boost in the upper mid-range eq.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Vicki LeeSong: Ups and DownsReviewer: Dave Haddad (CenterPeace)Positive Comments: Intro made me think of an old western movie theme, very quality sounds.
