02-Aug-08: Tight band. Excellent vocal. Good song. Totally radio and record company ready to my ears. The only hiccup might be that, despite all the really good things going on here, (of which there are loads) they do sound a bit like other bands. Good stuff though.  
KenMorrisonCriteria: "Any magic spark. It can be originality or familiarity - or a combination between the two, perhaps? Either way, I like to be able to hear that real effort has been put into it. I like to hear that an artist has absolutely done the best he or she can do with his or her labour of love. I hate to hear laziness. ´´That´ll do´´ just won´t do!".
What makes a hit: "What makes a hit? Dropping the ´´S´´ off the front of the word as often as not! Other than that, lots of sales, usually.".
Favourite Genre: Rock. Powerpop. Pop. Absolutely anything though. If it`s great, it`s great. Genres are just pigeon-holes really, which can create dangerous limitations..
Favorite artists: ...too many to mention really....

guitar5hr3dderCriteria: "Well my first impression is the sound quality. You can tell if a band spent alot of time and effort in making a good sounding recording. Second is the arrangement, Vocals, and tightness of the band. 3rd is originality. These are 3 standards you must have.".

08-Aug-08: This is a bit Beyonce in vibe. Not a bad vibe at all but something doesn´t quite flow for me here. It could be the way it´s mixed or maybe some of the sounds you picked. Not sure. Good song, but I´m left wanting more.

08-Aug-08: This has such a classic vibe, it´s almost a pastiche. But... it isn´t. This is really a great song and it´s only a shame that there are a few small places where some bits just arent quite tight enough. After that it´s all perfect. Stange you let that through. The sound is very 60´s here, and it would be very interesting to hear this arranged for a modern audience. Lovely songwriting and a great voice all beefs notwithstanding.

07-Jul-08: The vocal and the melody grab me straight away here, and as the song develops, those aspects just get better and better. The arrangement is good too, although the overall sound is very bass light, so a touch of re-mixing is probably needed. Worth doing to get the best out of this track, because it is absolutely excellent.

22-Jul-08: I´m not going to restate the obvious that the others have. This poppy medium paced stuff is oversaturated in the teeny-bobber bubblegum world. I´m noticing that you are not using a multitude of effects on your voice...bravo, now that we know you can sing, experiment and get out of that box. You have a voice and with the right music and genre you could do so much better.

20-Jul-08: Darome has a really good voice. Very pure. That in itself is a huge talent. The song itself - possibly could do the biz. The vocal carries it. Production - possibly a bit too synthy for my taste. But whether the song or the production are top notch or not, the voice certainly is.

02-Aug-08: From what I can tell from this snippet of the song, there is huge hit potential here. Presumably it´s meant to last more than 80 seconds? But even in that time, it´s enough to see that with this material, coupled with the band´s look, they could be huge (and not in an eating lots of cakes sort of way).

16-Jul-08: Who knew something this good could come out of Sofia in Bulgaria. I have been there and it aint a big place! This is an awesome song in my opinion, When I first saw the name I was expecting a head banging song like the guys from Russia the other day! But this is sooo cool I am going to listen to some more of their stuff!

15-Jul-08: great! sounding chorus. I´m not sure why the noise was added to the intro? The mix really could be better with more compression, EQ, and a few more effx to thicken up the vocals as well as the track. Other than that I think this would sound good on the radio as well as on a soundtrack.

15-Jul-08: This band should have a promising future,There is little to criticsize in this performance,The song may not be cutting edge enough to make top 10 but the band are heading in the right direction.Good stuff.   
335Criteria: "To try to be objective,I listen for something with an edge and energy.Originality is important however no one is without influence s but there is only one Elvis.Hit potential is dependent on a lot more than good music,people need to hear it first.".
What makes a hit: "Music is all about communicating with people,from basic rhythms, to lyrics people can associate with.A good song always has to have those elements.A potential hit needs to flow,seamlessly,from one movement to the next and be performed with conviction.Vision is important too. Finally,people need a medium to be heard.".
Favourite Genre: Rock and Roll, Blues, Pop, .

07-Jul-08: This is good. A considerable inmprovement on their last submission I thing. I like the dynamics on theis track - the choruses really explode with energy. The production´s a little bit messy, I think - could be a lot fuller and clearer. Loads to be positive about here though. Good one.  
KenMorrisonCriteria: "Any magic spark. It can be originality or familiarity - or a combination between the two, perhaps? Either way, I like to be able to hear that real effort has been put into it. I like to hear that an artist has absolutely done the best he or she can do with his or her labour of love. I hate to hear laziness. ´´That´ll do´´ just won´t do!".
What makes a hit: "What makes a hit? Dropping the ´´S´´ off the front of the word as often as not! Other than that, lots of sales, usually.".
Favourite Genre: Rock. Powerpop. Pop. Absolutely anything though. If it`s great, it`s great. Genres are just pigeon-holes really, which can create dangerous limitations..
Favorite artists: ...too many to mention really....
Hero: George Best , Larry David and Captain James T Kirk..
Instruments: vocals, guitar, bass, and stuff.
Past Credits: Been in bands since 1982! Thousands of gigs. Hundreds of songs. Dozens of bands. A couple of life lessons..
Accomplishments: Hopefully, they haven´t happened yet!.
Songs: about 600 probably. Only about 3 good ones though..

Hero: stevie wonder.

06-Jul-08: Is there something noisy in the recording? Or is this on purpose? Must be. I liked the start (in spite of that slight noise), but he first verse is a let-down. But then the chorus is great. So, a little uneven, but the final verdict is that I like it a lot.  
EdgyCriteria: "it`s gotta be meaningful AND have great beats and sounds".
