The Naiad is the result of a collaboration with my former neighbour, Hans Stiksma.
(Just before I moved away from Groningen and went to a small village, very close to where Anne-Marie lives).
He's a very talented musical guy, does lots of cool musical arrangements with his musical pal Jan Faber.
Their artist name is Two Men Left.

They had a very nice instrumental track that needed lyrics, melody and vocals.
We were happy to oblige.
Anne-Marie wrote both the lyrics (which are about a guy's obsession for a certain painting) and the melody .
On top of that she created a wonderful video for it.
Apart from that we thought this song could use some addional RTs as well as a soloist.
Both the Acoustic Guitar and String Quartet made it to the final mix.
Brent's soloist was replaced by Hans' guitar playing (he played the exact notes Brent did).

There is also a different mix created by Jan and Hans themselves (which has some different nuances), which can be found HERE

Hope y'all like it!
Rob

Hello, Rob & Anne-Marie

This is very nice song.
The sounds of Piano, Choir, Guitar and Strings fitted to the video very well.
Another version is also very beautiful.
I like both versions.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best Regards.

Very professional. The additional work completed by you and Anne-Marie blends perfectly with the original foundational music. Your works continue to get better and better. I'm left wondering after each post, how will they top this? But you always do.

Beautiful,, both lyrically and musically. The piano is haunting; the story is so well interpreted by the video.
As always the singing is superb. You two can just put another feather in your caps

Terrific piece. Kudos to all involved.
Both mixes were good. Interesting to hear slightly different interpretations.

The video was really nice. Seemed like a lot of work!

Very enjoyable.

I completely agree.

You are the experts at matching outstanding songs with outstanding videos.

Great job on this one.

One thing that you folks have in abundance is taste. Your productions
never stray from that. You may never know quite what to expect
before watching one of your video's but you always know that it
will be classy. And this is no exception.


Like Lawrence said "Melody and Vocals and lyrics are top notch!
And the video is completely engaging."

We could not agree more. Congratulations to the entire
team.

Thanks Lawrence!
It was quite some work to make The Naiad "leave" the painting.

Rob, your vocal leads a little more in this and sounds sensitive but strong with Anne-Marie's support.
Terrific arrangement.


Cheers

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."
