TAXI.com

Just curious how you guys/gals deal with feedback you don’t understand. I got a return (no big deal in itself) in which what the screener liked was the “happy, good feel” but said I missed the mood of the listing which asked for “happy” & “upbeat”.
Screener also mentioned that my sub was a different “tonality” than the refs which was confusing to my musician brain because all refs and my sub were in a major key with similar instrumentation which is what I considered the music theory definition of tonality. What might this screener have meant by that term here?
Im really trying to learn but feel like I need a translator .
I think I would have been less confounded if they’d just said “not sure why but it just doesn’t work”
Anyone have any insight you’re willing to share?

Best to post the track along with the Listing and the Feedback

Otherwise we don't know what they were looking for

Context is everything, and if you're new to this then some of the feedback can be difficult to comprehend. Just about everyone who's ever submitted to a Taxi listing has had similar feelings of confusion and frustration, although with hindsight we'd all be much more likely to agree with the feedback. As suggested, if you post a link to your track (that works) plus the listing (including the ref links) as well as ALL of the feedback, then you're much more likely to get some comments that could help you. Or maybe not. There are rare occasions when we all agree that the feedback is unusual, and in that case you'd be justified in asking the head screener for a bit more information.
