Hi Chris Portka, thank you for sharing! I think the beat has a pretty engaging groove thanks to the added texture from the bass and the shaker, but I'm sorry to say that the low end is a little lacking and sounded a bit thin in the mix. Really sorry for the de...
Hello Chris, thanks for your submission. This is a really enjoyable track with a great vibe. The groove is catchy, the bassline brings a lot of funk and movement, and the vocal elements work well as hooks that keep the track engaging throughout. Everything sou...

I believe the song's got a cool concept, it almost reminds me a bit of Glee and jazz combined together. However, I felt that the vocals could still be more locked into the notes a bit more as some of them could be a bit shaky. Sorry for passing on this track....
Hey Chris Portka, while I liked the funky bass line and the smooth percussion, I'm sorry to say that the track overall just lacked a more distinct and memorable catchy element for me to connect with and nothing really stood out for me. I'm afraid I'll pass for...
Hi Chris Portka, I loved the smooth bass groove and the soulful vibe but unfortunately this doesn't fit my r&b playlist as they vocals were too sparse and lacked lyrics. This also doesn't quite have the punchier drums to fit my house playlist. I'm sorry to tur...

Hi there and thank you for sharing your music Chris Portka! A nice and vibrant tune for sure. That bass in there sounds crisp. Well done on the production. For me personally: a bit too repetitive and slow paced. I prefer more energetic singing right from the s...
The song for Carol is perceived as carefully crafted in terms of sound. I like the polished sound and rich instrumentation. But, regarding its theme and lyrics, it is somewhat lacking in depth. It entertains, but I don't feel that it leaves a lasting mark on t...
In terms of sound and instrumental quality, I can say that the proposal is pleasant and maintains a good level throughout its development. There is a noticeable carefulness in the production and a competent execution that adds value to the whole. However, bein...
Hey there! To start with, I really dig that hypnotizing effect that your tune has on me. Infectious percussion, catchy bass line and hi-pitched back vocals. Pretty unusual layering. I like your openness to experiments. Unfortunately, the vocal lines did not re...
Hi davey, thank you for sending your track our way. We loved the track's chill energy, however, we feel it is a bit static in its progression. We will sadly have to skip this one. Keep making more music :)
Cool laid back production. Nice backing vocals in the chorus. Cool drop at 0:36. However, the reason why I am not going to share it is that the drums feel overly processed and I prefer more acoustic drums for my indie playlist. Of course, this is just my opini...
Hey, thanks for the submission! This was a really mellow & catchy tune, I quite enjoyed the backvocals and the strings. Your voice is really nice but a little pop/sweet for our r&b/neo-soul curation. Also, would've loved a bit more punch/grounding in the produ...
Hey Davey! Thanks for sending i really thought "remix"my way. Love the vibe on this track and love what you did with the acoustic-ey synth samples. The Justin Bieber inspiration comes through, and I can also hear a little "The Weeknd" in some of the backing vo...
vocals are so very vibey and endearing, love that the entire production is centered around it. it’s a super clever track but what didn’t quite match up with my personal taste is the lack of a breakthrough element which i felt would further solidify the hook on...

Your track has a warm, heartfelt vibe that I really appreciated. The flow of your phrasing feels natural and expressive. I also enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere you created. Personally though, the vocals felt a bit overly processed for the mood of the track. Th...
Hey davey, this is really a close fit for the playlist's rnb arrangements, especially with its progression. However, there's a very electronic sound on this track that contrasts the more natural/fuller sound that I'm feeling from the playlist. I do think it mi...
