Thank you Hit Zone for your fine review of the song " The Long and Short of the Kid Juan Pizarro " I really appreciate it ! Its off a CD I turned out called " Dreadful News from a Recently Refurbished Garage " By the way I've been listening to your cuts and am really enjoying them - unique ,well done and creative work ! Thanks again Tony DiPofi



Thanks for your good review of my tune, 'Stack 'em Up'... I was trying to go for a '50-60's vibe, and the song is fun to play live...Thanks for your comments!

Today we launched major upgrades to Broadjam.com. Our mission was to make Broadjam.com easier to navigate, but more importantly, find good music. All navigation tools are now in our North-South menu on the left hand side of the page. When new or returning visitors come to the Broadjam.com home page, they will see our members featured in the Top 10 charts. It is now much easier to find new music and for fans to engage and communicate with our members. Stay tuned for more updates coming soon......Let me know what you think. Your feedback is greatly appreciated......Roy

Looking good Broadjam! Like the layout. Bumped into a list "Top 10:Peavey" during my look around. Is that artifact, Easter egg, or foreshadowing? Adios, pjn

Hello Tommy-The opportunity you are referring to is what we like to call an immediate need opportunity, meaning the providers needs music as soon as possible.

Hit Zone - Good catch. That's an artifact. Thanks for letting us know.

Hello CS - it seems profiles no longer show artist info and news or am I missing something? Also do you know when the FAQ help will be available again?
Thank you - Michael Nickolas

Hello Studio Nine --- The artist info appears at the top of your Public Profile page and this text can be edited when you place your cursor over "Account Settings" and select "My Artist Info."

As for News - we are currently making some upgrades to this feature, so it will be unavailable for the time being. In the meantime, however, you can post any news you have using the comments feature (just leave a comment on your own page and all of your connections will be able to see it.)

The artist news section seems to be gone from the first page. Was good to have it there as "headline or breaking news" info .

I'm starting to enjoy the new format. But please, Roy, find a better way to screen reviewers. And force people to read a reviewing tutorial and agree to it before reviewing songs. Stuff like: "When to use N/A" and "Five is better then One". Yeeesh...we all work hard and want an honest shake for people to hear our music.

Spitting Lama MIDI - We wanted to address a few things for you.

Keep in mind, the peer-ratings your songs receives for licensing opportunities do not determine whether or not your song will be picked. The opportunity provider makes this decision on his/her own.

And as for the general reviews (where members score each category between 1 and 5), we ask all reviewers to include some constructive feedback on how the song can be improved, unless they think the song is fine the way it is. If you receive a review that does not meet this requirement, please let us know.

For 5 years I've been asking to be able to 'return to the previous page' in the song review section.....Jesse has told me that he agrees that this is important and will be changed....yes, but havn't seen it yet...its really a drag to want to go to the previous page and get sent to someplace
completely irrelevant!
Please fix this!
Thank You!

Agreed; a little flexibility in viewing would be sweet.

We found peer reviews to be very helpful and used them to select and tweak the cuts for Reed's "Raw, Rare, Well Done" CD. After a few years we've accumulated several hundred reviews and it is difficult to navigate the group. We ended up cutting and pasting into Excel to create usable summaries.

The "play" button is handy, but it would be nice to see the song title displayed with the review detail and to be able to step through reviews by either date or title.

Whew......glad someone else besides me notices this!
We have 1300 reviews!
A shame that its fairly useless because b'jam apparently
refuses to fix this....Jesse acknowledges that this is a good idea!
So what's the problem?

Hello Broadjam?



My name is Brent Hoffmann and I am the Executive Director of the 2010 Industry Meltdown Midwest Music Summit.
I would like to personally invite you to attend this year's IMMMS. September 17th-18th
Have you ever asked yourself:
(1) How can I get more paying gigs?
(2) How can I get my songs on the radio?
(3) How can I meet industry pros so they can listen to my music?
(4) Where can I go to learn more/new techniques to market my music?
etc....
All of those questions and more will be addressed at this year's event. You don't want to miss this opportunity. Seats are limited and tickets are almost gone.
You can find out more information at - www.industrymeltdown.com
Videos at - http://www.youtube.com/user/IMMMSTV
Or you can check out our Broadjam page for more information.

I look forward to seeing you there.
Sincerely,
Brent Hoffmann
Executive Director
608-347-4554
P.S. - As a Broadjam member you are also being offered a special promotion - buy a ticket to the event and we will add the A&R Listening Session for FREE! That's $150 in your pocket and 15 min. with a pro. Tell a friend and we will pass the deal onto them as well. Just email me your ticket purchase and I will take care of the rest.



Thanks for the very helpful review of "Dogs of War". Since the version you heard is only a songwriter's demo, and since I am working on finishing it right now for a video your suggestions came at the perfect time, and I will definitely incorporate them into the final version. Thanks so much! Al
