\"Floyd<\/p>\n

Broadjam Artist: <\/b>Floyd Kelly<\/a>
Song: <\/b>Sepias Waltz<\/a><\/p>\n

Reviewer: <\/b>Seth Adam<\/a><\/p>\n

Positive Comments: <\/b>Overall, I believe this song is very well crafted. The musicianship is professional, the melody lines are thoughtful, the changes make sense. I can see this being used as “background music” for a number of purposes – commercials, TV scenes, on-hold music, office music, and more. I listened through twice and my only (and miniscule) criticism is the drum\/percussion sounds. I would prefer more natural sounding drums, but that’s just me. Otherwise, this is strong instrumental piece invoking calm and tranquility. <\/p>\n

Constructive Comments: <\/b>As noted above, my only constructive comments are the drum\/percussion sounds. They sound a bit like they were made electronically. I prefer real drums\/percussion. I also gave a lower grade on the quality of the hook, but I don’t think this style of music necessarily needs a hook. I don’t listen to New Age music often, so I’m not sure if there should be a hook or not. If I was to write it, I would probably have one, but that’s because I write from a more “pop music” sensibility. While the song doesn’t grab me by the horns (thus the overall rating), I still think it’s well done and thoughtfully crafted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
