Here is the 3rd installment on my quest to achieve 50 songs in 90 days, there was a challenge to title a song with a verb. I took a Band in a Box style and added a couple of instruments to it, marked by +. Bass=366 Fiddle=2030 Drums RD=Nashville Ev8^5HiHt,Ride Guitar 1=405 Rhythm Guitar 2=522 Finger style Harmonica+=615 Mandolin+=2035 Here is the link to song #3 Skippin'Also as I promised I will not flood the site with all of my 50 on individual links; so here is the link to all of the songs completed so far and from now on I will answer this post and just add the current song, I will appreciate any comments and suggestions; I do take them all into account, sometimes due to time constraints; I can't correct them until after the 5090. Here is the link to Song #1 Guitar CHAOS Here is the link to song #2 Daddies Going Home(Be A Brave Little Soldier)
My TunesPsalm 57:7 My heart, O God, is steadfast, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music.

Very interesting track! Reminded me of the old days with LPs. Music is really cool, and this is certainly an interesting take. I listened to your Guitar Chaos and very much enjoyed that. It would be great music for a video game. Keep us posted as you continue your challenge!! Take care. Greg

Here is my 4th song for the 5090. I took the first lines of the old classic "Amazing Grace" and wrote new lyrics. I Will Give Honor To My KingAll of the instruments are Band in a Box. I took the rhythm guitar into Real Band and regenerated some of the "ego manic" strums. Even our computers have ego's LOL. The Instruments are Bass= 1827 Rythm Guitar= 1828 Electric Gtr= 1831 Real Drums = Pop Modern Groove sync 16^5 H54,H24 Synth Pad = 1842 All feedback is welcome; I am still trying to get the reverb right. Here is link to song #4 I Will Give Honor To My KingHere are the links to songs 1-3 Here is Link to song #3 Skippin'Here is Link to Song #2 Daddie Going HomeHere is Link to Song #1 Guitar CHAOS

Here is the link to songs 5 & 6 of the 5090 challenge. Both of these are played on my Yamaha piano into Reason and then different instrument sounds added. The first song is a comedy; it takes a look at all of the cliche's used in horror movies. It's called Run and Don't Look Back, I used film effects for the background. Here is link to song #5 Run and Don't Look BackHere is song #6 called Rest 4 through 1 are at the bottom. Here is link to song #6 RestHere is link to song #4 I Will Give Honor To My KingHere is Link to song #3 Skippin'Here is Link to Song #2 Daddie Going HomeHere is Link to Song #1 Guitar CHAOS

I like all of your songs you've posted so far. I've gotten through 6. We are getting the full 360 degrees from your 50/90 submissions this year. It's quite a challenge but you have been up to the task so far.

Hi, Robert.
I just picked one of your songs at random for a quick listen.
"Daddies Going Home(Be A Brave Little Soldier)" is a pretty tune. I quite enjoyed it.
Thanks for the music,
Dan

Hi, Robert,
Of the new ones, I picked "Give Me Rest" (instrumentals are not really "my thing")...
Excellent write!
A couple of "production suggestions" - it is already very good - so these aren't necessary - but this is so good, I think it is worth coming back to later...
For this type song, it's nice to have a BIG sustained guitar chord hitting on the chorus. Make a 2nd SGU that is all HELD chords (in the spots where it seems appropriate) and find a guitar that his those hard - the Brent Rock soloist works great for this - and add those to your chorus.
Also, I thought you might let the band come back in on the 2nd half of that last chorus - let it "rock out"...
Nice work.

Here is song number 13. There is a writers tool on the 5090 website called LyriCloud; it gives a bunch of Random words to help with some ideas. I sat down Saturday with the idea of taking 1 word then regenerating the page until I had a completed a song using the words; however when I brought up the LyriCloud the first time I saw the 2 words Bored and Happened. I put the 2 together and taking inspiration from a couple of episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond, 1. He says he is bored with his kids. 2. He tells his brother he sometimes just says things to his wife just to fill the space. Here are the Real tracks I used; I also added a Harmony voice section using Reason. I just did held notes during the ending chorus. This song has 2 different time signatures needed so I used the bar # feature to make parts of the song 2 beats others 4. It really worked well with the style I used. *****Also note, song 8 Give Me Rest, I put a different compressor setting on it; and so the vocal sets better than the first version, where words kept ducking in and out, LOL! 427 Bass 431 Ac. Guitar 590 Banjo 428 Fiddle Here is link to song #13 *Vocal Bored HappenedHere are the other 12 links Here is link to song #12 *Vocal Junkyard Dog Named BettyHere is link to song #11 *Vocal VertigoHere is link to song #10 *Instrumental Alluring FlameHere is link to song #9 *Instrumental Blowin' In The WindHere is link to song #8 *Vocal Give Me RestHere is link to song #7 * Instrumental Blues CountryHere is link to song #6 *Instrumental RestHere is link to song #5 *Vocal Run and Don't Look BackHere is link to song #4 *Vocal I Will Give Honor To My KingHere is Link to song #3 *Instrumental Skippin'Here is Link to Song #2 *Vocal Daddie Going HomeHere is Link to Song #1 *Instrumental Guitar CHAOSThanks Noel96, also floydjane; on Bored Happened I used your idea of making different versions in order to get instruments to play what I needed. The bass does held chords in parts; which is a rewrite of the orginal.

Thanks Janice & Bud and olemon for the feedback! Up to 14 now. This one did not entail using BIAB: as I wrote it on my piano and recorded it into Cubase using the midi synth that comes with Cubase the Halion. I used a phaser on part of this one and then I set 2 delays 1 at 2X the tempo and a second 1 at 4X. I also deleted the Left side of the stereo file and then the right in a section. I also used fade in's and out's throughout to make it more interesting; as I am not very fluent on the piano. I was not happy with the Phaser section but I left it anyway; you can give me feedback on what you think. The phaser section will come in first; you will know it when you here it; the delay section comes in a little later; I was much more pleased with that section. Here is the link to it; feedback is welcomed Here is link to song #14 *Instrumental Band of AngelsHere are the other 13 Here is link to song #13 *Vocal Bored HappenedHere is link to song #12 *Vocal Junkyard Dog Named BettyHere is link to song #11 *Vocal VertigoHere is link to song #10 *Instrumental Alluring FlameHere is link to song #9 *Instrumental Blowin' In The WindHere is link to song #8 *Vocal Give Me RestHere is link to song #7 * Instrumental Blues CountryHere is link to song #6 *Instrumental RestHere is link to song #5 *Vocal Run and Don't Look BackHere is link to song #4 *Vocal I Will Give Honor To My KingHere is Link to song #3 *Instrumental Skippin'Here is Link to Song #2 *Vocal Daddie Going HomeHere is Link to Song #1 *Instrumental Guitar CHAOS
