First off, many thanks for your feedback, it's exactly what I'm looking for at this stage of my game. I'm the manager for Lazywall and have been supporting their development for the past 6 months, aiming to focus a promotional blast as soon as the music is ready. I feel it's getting closer to the point where I have a solid story to break them through, but I would appreciate your final comment on a few of the thoughts at the forefront of my mind.
Which tracks do you feel are ready to be put in front of A&R, do we need to re-record them perhaps or just re-mix/re-master?
Thanks again, and I look forward to hearing from you again.
Best regards,
Gary
