A review by Paul Laginess

(about "Bygon Funk") Nice, funk/jazzy tune. Neat melody with catchy harmonies, tight work in the rhythm section and a cool vox/clavinet almost unison part. I like it. Paul Laginess, ArtistLaunch

A review by Loren DiGiorgi

(about "Bygon Funk") Yeah...very smooth! I love strategic use of harmonies -- it takes a knack to pull it off in the right places and the right amounts. It happens here! An added advantage is that I speak Italian and understand the lyrics. :) Also, the very occasional use of doubling the vocals an octave apart is a really sweet touch. This is a really fun, well-played groove. It's nice to notice right off a clean production and good-sounding mix that doesn't swallow the vocals. I love the 70-ish synth that pops in now and then, giving it an added touch of funk. What can I say? Well-produced, cleanly-done, and enough different things done at different times to keep it interesting throughout. Great job, Bygon! Loren DiGiorgi, ArtistLaunch

A review by Scott Griffin

(about "Bygon Funk") I have to hand it to Lord Bygon - he wears his influences on his sleeve, his chest, his trousers, and his hat! This is Steely Dan in Italian. Almost a bit too Steely Dan for my blood. Precise execution, smooth grooves, with a tongue-in-cheek melody and vocal delivery that would make Frank Zappa smile. Mix is a bit erratic at times, with various instruments battling for supremacy at the expense of the vocal tracks. A solid piece in need of some individual track compression and a little more balance. Scott Griffin, ArtistLaunch

A review by Brian Alloran

(about "Joe The Killer") Donald Fagen and Frank Zappa: together at last! Sort of has that post Steely Dan groove, but with that Zappa lounge lizzard thing happening. Pretty catchy song. Brian Alloran, New York

A review by Paulina Cane

(about "Joe The Killer") That's interesting intro. Good bass and groove. Song is OK and despite modern grove sounds like 60's or 70's. Interesting mood, good sequencing and interesting atmosphere. Good track for a movie. Nice job. Paulina Cane, Perth, Australia

A review by Andrei Hauk

(about "Joe The Killer") Big retro intro... Bum's song type. Three's excellent mood of being in oblivion. The vocal backups would be in order. Wonderful work! Andrei Hauk, Bensalem, Pennsylvania

A review by Anita P. Daly

(about "Joe The Killer") This is a jazzy little number and I think it's a breath of fresh air for the Pop genre. Lounge music for the Scotch and water crowd, the singer delivers heartfelt lyrics. Anita P. Daly, Ames, Iowa

A review by Marc Friekman

(about "Joe The Killer") Cool drum machine beat. Grooving and tight bass line with nice keys and sound. I like the vocal melody, but I would put an effect like a megaphone on the vocals. Kind of loungy, but in a cool way. Marc Friekman, Boston, Massachussets

A review by Laura Garcia

(about "Joe The Killer") Life secrets.... a cloud of smoke ...a beautiful woman... a nightman walking and seen the city with hard eyes and cold heart. A really downtown beauty. Laura Garcia, Buenos Aires, Argentina
