Good Morning

Hi all,

I wondered if making your own stlye was possible, so I
opened a googledrive "opensource project" folder, to
document this. Link in my signature, check my profile.

I made 7 default bassline's and paired them together for these keys below;
Then I added chords which would compliment the Key and the paired basslines.

The chords are also on a "TechnoMap135BPM.xls" Excelsheet. All midi files provided.

TechnoFull1 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of C maj) Basspattern 1, Basspattern b7
TechnoFull2 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of d mn) Basspattern 2, Basspattern 3
TechnoFull3 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of e mn) Basspattern 3, Basspattern b7
TechnoFull4 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of F maj) Basspattern 4, Basspattern 5
TechnoFull5 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of G maj) Basspattern 4, Basspattern 6
TechnoFull6 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of A mn) Basspattern 4, Basspattern b7
TechnoFull7 Vol 16 BPM135BreadBoard.Mp3 (Key of Bb maj) Basspattern 5, Basspattern b7

---------------------------------------------------

I used drums and Fx effects from Magix Music,

I used BIAB Ork448.STY; as a Rhythm Templetes to choose, which chords, from the midiSuperTracks below:

1798: Piano, Rhythm RockNRollJohn Ev 165
1796: Piano, Rhythm BritBluesInvasionJohn Ev 120
--------------------------------------------------
Then I played with modulating with these Keys, and created a quick song called;"Good Morning" Hope you like my new Techno-Jazz style.

Techno-Jazz is the perfect description for this song! A super neat style and feel this song has! Great job.

Wow.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Great discordant choices, and an obscure set of instruments that supply enthusiastic surprise throughout.

All provided with a variety of rhythmical delivery sitting so well in the mix.

Very well done.

Hey... hi... VideoTrack,
I am very glad you'd liked it.
I am pondering about doing some country style, I have not figured out a way to conceive that yet.... to go beyond a backtrack.... vocals .... what to do, what to do?

Know what this reminds me of a bit ? The old man from U.N.C.L.E. Theme. Well the start anyway.
Cleverly done

Wow - what an interesting and creative piece of music! I must say, I don't think I've ever heard anything quite like this on the Showcase before. It reminds me of certain stuff done by Shpongle, an English psychedelic electronic group. This is a wonderfully creative tune, and a great display of how diverse and limitless Band-in-a-Box can be.

Great work, and thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

hi, Deryk - PG Music

I am listening to Shpongle...now... Hallucinogen - Demention
I can hear what you mean....

Yes, a great display of how diverse and limitless Band-in-a-Box can be. I have always wondered what is the history between BIAB and Songsmith, which both started with the use of the same style files.

I am glad you recognize, how I have explored what's under the hood
that makes Band-in-a-box so great. As a chord mapper BIAB is an very valuable tool. Thanks for your great response!

Sincerely LPman

Hello, LPman

What a tune!
Very fun!
It reminds me of Lalo Schifrin a little bit.
Especially in the melodies of woodwind instruments.
You always create very unique music!
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hello Shigeki

Lalo Schifrin made the mission impossible theme.
This is the first song I made, that the bass conducts
most of the songs focus.... Thanks for saying, "I always create very unique music!"

Thanks Greg Johnson
thanks so much.... I left this in my googledrive as an Open Source Folder, I may do the same for "Country Piano" if I can successfully add counterpoint harmony to it.
