Good to see you again Mike!
This is a very fun song, especially since you added some of your own playing to the mix.. I'm always a big fan of that!

I also really like the style you used... all in all a very easy song to listen to! Thanks for posting! And now that you're back, I look forward to hearing more from you!

Mike,

An interesting mix of instruments. You did not mention what loop(s) you used (new BIAB loops?). For the length of the song the loop gets a bit repetitive. The drums are mixed a little low in comparison - if they were a little more prominent, they could "help" the loop (maybe takes turns to break it up a bit). The sax and guitar are cool. And the pads...

Nice work Mike. Like the strings/pads and how easy the song is on the ears, very comfortable.

Cool tune!! Serenity seems like an unusual title. That title makes me think of mellow strings/flutes, and some exotic Asian instruments. I would call it EXCITEMENT! Nicely done all around! Take care. Greg

Hi FJ, yes I used new BIAB loops:

- Chillout - chilly_night_80_drum_loop_a_minor ev16 and for bass:
- Soul - chill_100_bass_d_minor ev 16

And you are right about the mix ... totally redone this one smile Thanks for your input! smile

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."
