Hi, do you still have the multitrack available for download? I'm a music student and need a Brian Eno multi-track as part of my course requirements

That BiaB band is a showcase within the showcase forum. Excellent session folks indeed and very well mixed. Thank you J&B! I laid the foundation of the song in BIAB quite a few months ago, and I wish I’d kept notes about my choices for adding the additional RealTracks. I think the baritone guitar was added being similar to my own guitar with tremolo in my original recording, and the organ similar to my pianica. But credit to the BIAB band for the irreplaceable foundation. As you both often say - what would we do without it! The video is very creative. And the supportive real clips are perfect. Fortunately, I have access to a good library of video stock in Clipchamp, and can usually find something that fits - either directly or indirectly. Being a writer who doesn’t place as much weight on the lyrics - sometimes to my detriment - it is often during the video that I think deeply about the words I have used and how to represent them in video. As others have praised the arrangement, chord structure and vocals are top notch. I think you referred to me as Mr. Chord Man recently, and that is often my motivation and starting point. It is also what I tend to focus on in others’ songs when listening. Thank you for noticing and commenting! Andrew

Hi Mario! As the tune played, I pictured myself in a dark alley alongside the jazz club; a brunette in a top hat, leotard, fishnet stockings and stilettos walked slowly towards me … I looked behind me to see who was there, but there was no-one … surely she couldn’t be looking at me? As she moved close and leaned in, placing her arm across my shoulder and blowing smoke in my face, I panicked, held up my left hand and pointed to my ring finger - “I’m married!”. Then the tune ended. Thank you for an adventure vicariously through your piece! Wonderful creativity and playing! Andrew

A good example of a great DAW that just never get finished properly. the thread about surprise that it allowed you to remove a track. the response is "it shouldn't do that" My question is WHY!!!! it should allow a track to be deleted even when running Most DAWs do. RB is a powerful DAW with a ton of features that are often overlooked. That said it needs a modernization program to bring it into the now.

Great yacht rock composition. I love the singer, I don't care if it is AI. I prefer your more poetic, contemplative lyrics, but this is good, too. Excellent use of multiple resources to complete a masterpiece. Well done! Thank you very much, TuneMonger, for the comments. Laurent

Beautiful song, well arranged with a great selection of instruments. I never would have thought that Suno could sing in other languages, the singer sounds really good and fits this style perfectly. Well done! Thanks for the comments, B.D. Thomas; I’ve already tried out Suno with Brazilian Portuguese, and it works very well for me. Laurent

It was while reading Bob's comments that I realized it was "Fever." The bass sound is excellent, with a very expressive saxophone in the background. Great job. Laurent

Thanks Matt. Your comments are always so helpful. I think BIAB could make the drum fills between substyles more active. Thanks rharv. I’m usually at a more moderate tempo but I’ll try that one.

Temperature is Rising If you are old enough you will know where this song title came from. Basically I'm just trying out my new computer and looking for any problems - there were none - thus far. BiaB style - Jazz Swing Style Tempo - 80 BPM I deleted the bass Piano - BiaB track using EZKeys2 as a sound source - Session Grand - Basic Drums - SSD-5 - Jazz Sticks 4697 Piano Soloist - Jazz - using EZKeys2 as a sound source - Session Grand - Basic Finger snaps - wavs I am playing my fretless bass and via my breath and keyboard controller the Swam alto sax. As usual all comments are welcomed.

Bob and Joliz, you have written another masterpiece. Those lyrics were fantastic. I wish I could write lyrics like that. I thought Joliz's part was outstanding; she did one heck of a job on this song. Great vocal Bob. Your instrumentation was perfect for this song, as was the video. Loved it.

Another great jazz rendition from Bob. When you mentioned Chet Baker I was expecting a trumpet solo but that harmonica was perfect. Great vocal and mix. A fantastic version of an ol' jazz classic - keep them coming.

Hi Hans - thanks so much for your very kind comments, The piano was made up from 3 VSTs in combination - Pianoteq Petrof and U4 Upright, plus Keyscape C7 Classical. I used Spectrasonics Omnisphere "Nylon Sky" for the lead part - Trilian for the bass, and Modartt Pianoteq "Classical Guitar" on the L and "Harps" on the R for subtle rhythm parts! A simple setup and a very simple tune really - but I enjoy putting some "feel" into my playing (leftover from playing guitars etc I suppose?) and hopefully that feel might have been picked up by your ears? Really pleased you liked my tune - thank you for listening Hans!! All the best to you, Carl

It was just a thought Mario - very many people have radiation vulnerability (I suspect incl me?). The routers in everyone's house sends out a very damaging signal and in most cases that's left on 24/7 for internet access convenience - I use a wired connection to my internet PC and only rarely switch on the WiFi !! Glad your mobile phone gets left alone mostly - have a great music day!!! Carl
