Song Reviews for Antoine Smith

From what I gathered from The Peoples Music Awards (TPMA) on the internet, it is based out of London, being first in universal awards for unsigned artists all over the world. Votes are based on a public voting process for their favorite unsigned artists compositions. After weekly wins in the contest, the best Top 5 Finalists are chosen to go up against each other for the remaining 2 winners, by a panel of judges who are music industry professionals. The Peoples Music Awards ceremony is held in April for 1st Place winners.

Songwriter/artist, Antoine Smith has been selected in The Peoples Music Awards (TPMA) Top 5 Finalists for two consecutive years, for his track, "Mythical" 2010 from his cd MYTHICAL and his unreleased track, "City In The Sea" 2011 from his unreleased cd CITY IN THE SEA. He seems to know how to gain positive attention from UK fans to complete fantastic exposure for his cd's.

Although there is always room for improvement in composition, performance, and production, Smith seems to take constructive criticism very well in his personal notes on site @ Antoine Smith - The Peoples Music Awards

Below are some highlighted reviews taken from a few top UK/US professionals in the music industry regarding Antoine Smith's unreleased track, "City In The Sea" for 2011:

D. Ramirez: DJ / Producer - awarded Best Remix and Best Producer in DJ Magazine's Awards says...

"City In The Sea," "I really liked the musicianship, the chords and the arrangement and the feeling that he captured."

Russ Sawyer: Mixing/Masterering Professor, London College of Music at Thames Valley University says...

"City In The Sea," Very atmospheric trumpet and other instrumentation to provide a swell of sound."

David Dunne: DJ / Presenter - Head of Music & Senior Presenter Kiss 102 & 105 in Manchester and Yorkshire says...

"City In The Sea"..."I think that melodically it's very nice indeed - has a nice chilled balearic jazzy feel to it and the chord progressions work really well." "I think this is someone who clearly has musical ability and can put together some quite complex rhythms and melodies - jazz is hard to pull off successfully but Cleveland's done well here."

Hayden Bendall: Producer/Mixer/Engineer (worked w/ stars...Kate Bush, Katie Melula, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Tori Amos, and many more) says...

"City In The Sea"..."Interesting from the beginning! Loved it."
