Yes, that's right, just not for me. To me the tracks sound like the same samples played in different genres, it's the same drum kit in every track, the same keyboard sounds, the same trumpets, etc etc. Which is why I say middle of the road. It comes across in the genre's I want to hear a like a holiday camp cabaret band in glittery waistcoats trying to rock it up!

Still a good solution when the music is nothing more than an enhancement, which might be why my interest in your video didn't develop, I think your're right in saying that narration over the top might have been more inviting, to me at least.

One other thing. Your format choice, 4:3. I have to believe it would have been visually more dynamic in 16:9 at least, if not full cinema style. Your thoughts?
