[Little Organ Diddy]

Pretty cool, simple and fun.

[Jazza York 2002]

Nice track. In some places it sounds like that sax solo was looped/ sampled from somewhere, but generally speaking, nice track.
Could use some effects on the sax, it's a bit dry and doesn't fit "in the same room" with the other instruments. Try some slap-back delay or a pinch of reverb.

I do appreciate the feedback! I will take your advice! Much obliged my friend!

[Ende of the universe song]

1. Not jazz, and at the time of this review, this track is in the jazz section.
2. Total chaos and random notes, could maybe fit in some movie or game as a bad LSD trip, but a pretty bad attempt at it.
3. Poor mix, overly compressed, very abrupt ending, spent probably less than 10 minutes making it.

[Wave]

Very nice, quite well recorded too.

[Chick's Tune]

This is pretty amazing. The recording quality is not the best, but the composition and playing are top! The drum could have recorded on separate tracks. Sax overpower everything in the mix.
Anyway, keeping in mind that is played live probably, great track!

[Erasco / エラスコ]

Jazzy chord progressions in Jazz category? That's unusual :D
Nice feel, sounds like a soundtrack for a rainy day. Maybe a solo instrument like soprano sax or muted trumpet would fit there quite good.

[rapture of love(COVER)]

Repetitive, muddy mix, weird choice of instruments and definitely not jazz (at the moment of this review, this track is listed in Jazz genre). Good try but you need to brush up your producing skills.
Here the drums are killing everything else, the pad has so much high frequencies that you can't hear hi-hats or cymbals, the main lead should be the focus of the mix, but those synth chimes are overpowering it.

I would suggest to take some simple song (3-4 chords) and make a typical arrangement (bass, drums, lead instrument and some chords on piano or guitar) and try to fit each instrument in it's own "niche" of frequencies.

[Beat Rush (Tifa's Theme; OG Remix)]

Very nice, somehow unexpected mix of styles. I love the chopped theme.

[JazzyMcSazzy]

Pretty nice track. Love the brass arrangement.

[Hail King Gregg]

In some parts that brass plugin sounds so cheesy, but hey, it's free.
The combination between the pretty standard chord progression and the bebop-ish part at 0:58 makes it to stand out. Could have some soloing, real or vst instrument.

Sledgeh-ogg responds:

Didn't see your review until now, but thanks. Don't really get what you mean by "Could have some soloing, real or vst instrument", but I'm glad you liked the track. Sadly, i don't have any solution to the cheesiness of the plugin, other than actually having a brass band play it, which isn't really a possibility.
