August 3, 2010

Overall Rating: 3.33 (out of 5)

"An overall rating of 3.33 stars means this release is above average and stands out compared to most of the music we hear. A few areas could be stronger, but this is definitely a good release and you should be proud. You’re on the cusp of greatness and we think that with some hard work, you’ll get even better."

"We rarely tag a release as unique, so you should be proud. We hear stuff going on here that sounds fresh and isn't common. You clearly have a vision and you've started to realize it on your recordings. Keep up the good work."
