Nice work on this Mike - it flows beautifully, and I like how classy it sounds. The groove is on point, and the mix sounds professional as well.

Thanks for sharing smile

Stunning. This is right up my alley ... and Deryk's found the perfect word above: it really does sound classy. It really does flow and it takes me back. Thank you so much for sharing this one ... my day is better for having heard it.

Mike B.....

I do like what you have done with this one.
Easy listening, not too busy and love that old 40's/50's laid back style.

What I do hear?....some appropriate lyrics sung by Noel Adams.
His singing style would truly compliment this song.

I checked out a couple of your other ones and they are well done too for this genre.
Very appealing to the ear.

Well done.....

Hi, 'cubanpete'...

This composition of yours, Ain't The Same Without You, is an elegant thing to listen to, a ballroom dancer's dream. The instruments -- the hushed rhythm of the drums brushwork, the calm, elegant bounce of the bassline, and, in particular, the piano that sounds as though it's accompanying a singer -- have an amazing, human-feeling presence and sound. Were they Real Tracks? Regardless, even the details of the production such as the 'just enough' application of reverb, lent a wide, spacious ambience to the presentation.

It's a fine example of how jazz music can be both 'cool, and 'warm', at the same time.

Sincerely,

LOREN

Great mix also!

Hi Mike,

Well that's about as cool a track as you'll ever hear. Ol' Nat would be proud of this one.

Great job.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
