What is a Good Critique

Post by Hookjaw Brown » Sun Mar 06, 2011 12:12 pm

Had a custom critique done on Cheers to Mother Earth (on my Taxi music page). It is a Ska Pot Song and I have no expectations of ever placing it on Taxi. I am using it as an entry in all the Hempfests going around, plus a Cheech and Chong movie, and some intros on Medical Marijuana sites.

The listener gave 9's across the board!

I was curious as to what others get from their critiques. How good is good?

Hello Le Hook,
I did the custom critique about a year ago with one of my best songs so far ( IMHO ) and I received 5s, 6s, and 7s ....

Maybe the listener got into the theme of the song, lit up, settled back and enjoyed the music! ;) :lol:

I don't know about custom stuff but on average I get 8's... maybe more 9's than 7's and I'm happy with that. The 9's across the board if that's kind of a consistent theme, to me means that you can enjoy the pleasure of focusing on the songwriting since the other things (like production, etc) are all good.

BTW... that's a really brilliant targeting of music, it really is. 8-)
