Pro General Comments: Good mixLive drums could hav added an element of excitementVocal melody and tone is excellentI like the theme of the song. Great subject . Nice to hear something positive for a change.Lyrics are great.verse 1 I feel like im a little bored . It could be the vocal melody or something in the track that could bring just a touch of excitment to the verse. sometimestaking away an inst. is like adding soemthing to the track.Rich, its all about attention span of the listener. nowadays people have very short attention spans so if you do get their attention within the verse few secs of the track you will lose their interest.Hook is very well sung the vocal backgrounds are placed very well.Good overall mix. I would have like to hear a maybe some live drums incorperated Hi Hats maybe need to be blended just a bit.Yes I defintley think this would be a great track for any commercial use for sure! Radio is we i hear this track pop radio any where you would hear Bruno Mars or Sam Smith music.very nice pre hook, this track has all the elements to be a hit song for sure.id be interested in knowing if you are pushing it to radio.and I would also like to hear more of your work.its also interesting to think about as a pop record but i also hear it as a country record with a little slide guitar and a fiddle...Pop/Country is hot right now.I really enjoyed listing and reviewing your track Rich.

Quote From Pro: This song is great inspiration for me and i'm sure will be an inspiration for anyone feeling down or uninspired!Bruno Mars lookout!!

Pro General Comments: This is a hit song in my humble opinion. 5:05 is a little long for commercial radio but it's perfect for all the other formats. Karma is a simplistic generic hook but it's delivered with so much attitude it feels new. I'm very impressed with everything about this song. I listened intently from the first downbeat to the last note and was thoroughly entertained. You kept me interested. I want to hear this song again and again and i'm sure so will your followers. It would be on my playlist for sure. This song should open the door for you and your band to get in the door with major labels if that is your goal. This is an attention grabber. The first song I evaluated had mixing problems and I couldn't understand a lot of the lyrics. The 2nd song was much better and this one was killer. Get it out there and make some money...There is no way Crucial Music or any of the major music libraries would pass on this song. I'm excited for you. Keep up the good work.

Quote From Pro: Stella Rising's song "Karma" is a deal maker. This song won't just open doors it will kick them in. Impressive performances from everyone involved. The sky's the limit for Stella Rising!!!!

Song: Situations Goin' Nowhere

Pro General Comments: My only concern is the battle between the lyric being understood and the drums and guitar trying to drown out the vocal. In my opinion the drums and guitar eked out a victory. Just my opinion but the drums and guitar could come down a little in the mix or the vocal could be raised a little in the mix. There were spots in the verses where i couldn't quite make out what the singer was saying.The chorus is very strong and clear...Love the vocal pitch and attitude...very catchy and memorable music hooks and melodic lines. This is very commercial and your fans should love it. The overall mix feels and sounds like it was recorded live. If that's the effect you were going for you nailed it. Other than me not understanding some of the words I really think this is a strong commercial song. A music library or music placement company should have no problem placing this in a movie television show or commercial. Good luck with it. I hope my comments are helpful.

Quote From Pro: Stella Rising is on the verge of making a loud splash in the indie blues rock genre with great vocals interesting lyrics and great band instrumentalists. I would not be surprised to hear one of their songs in a movie television show or commercial in the very near future.
