A solid listen for sure.      <\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>2 things &#8211; there&#8217;s virtually no &#8220;hook&#8221; that I can discern, which is OK if you&#8217;re not trying for radio play.   The other bigger issue is you should reverse the saxaphone and vocal volume levels.  The lyrics are back in the mix and you can&#8217;t understand them at times, even on studio  headphones (which is how I listen), and the sax is a little hot in comparison with the bass in particular.   I&#8217;d move the vocals probably 3db hotter if you ever do a remix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Simpson-Mancine ProductionsSong: Song of the PeopleReviewer: Bob BirthiselPositive Comments: Interesting retro-sound.
