Hi all, Here's a folk ballad. Thanks to David Cuny for his good advices. https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/in-my-brainI have two birds in my brain Don’t know which one to follow Each one sings me his refrain The white dove and the black crow White dove tells me to stay quiet Just fly by me, that’s wiser Avoid wild ducks, they could bite Don’t speak with them, that’s safer Black crow tells me: drink the rain Explore the clouds, brave the sky Just look for fun, life’s a game You will like it if you try RD NashvilleBrushesBalladPushEv16 RT 1036 Electric Bass RT 3113 Acoustic Guitar RT 1593 Fiddle RT 2880 Fiddle Synthesizer v: Kevin and Natalie

Hey there Chris, I've worked with David once before too - he's great to work with, and you made a good choice. At first I thought the nylon guitar could use a bit more reverb, but as the song progressed, I'm not so sure. You may have already played around with that.

Hi David, I found it funny to add a second voice. Natalie just sings when the birds are talking.

I like the extended metaphor. Great opening line: "I've have two birds in my brain."
Sweet melody and instrumentation.
Kevin and Natalie sound so authentic. I'm impressed.

Great job, Christian! Nice melody and feel to match the topic. Something to consider...you have a very strong word in the first stanza which rhymes with your hook's main word (i.e., refrain to brain). My two cents is it would be more natural to the ear if you took the extra time wordsmithing to align them in lines 2 and 4.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
