My Santa Man

Merry Christmas everybody!

Here's a two minute tune we threw together for the season. Hope it works for you!

J&B


My Santa Man

my santa man don’t hang with them elves
no he don’t hang with them little elves
we take care of business all by ourselves

he don’t come crawling down my chimney
no he don’t go crawling down my chimney
he walks in the door looking so fine to me

he don’t have to land a sled up on my roof
he don’t have to park no sled on my roof
he’s my santa man, i don’t need no proof

i don’t need my gifts waiting under a tree
yeah, i don’t need no gifts under a tree
my santa man, he brings it straight to me

Hi J&B.

Janice, you sound to be having SO much fun there!

Incredible bit of vocalising with absolutely superb improvisation, but yet always still in control.

Now that's the sort of Christmas song I DO like.

Wonderful stuff, you two.

Have a super Christmas.

ROG.

Hey You two!

Is this too cool, or what? We say "too cool"! We love 12 bar shuffle blues ...one of our very favorites song styles. Great Christmas pick-me-up! Dui and I still say Janice sounds a lot like Susan Tedechi ... and that ain't a bad thing.

Great stuff! We totally loved it!

Merry Christmas and hoping for a great and healthy 2017!

What a great riff on the ending! Girl you can Sang!!! It's easy to hear influences of older blues singers and it's easy to imagine that you both have been studying ,listening to and absorbing the blues genre for a long time. The mix sounds great as usual. The four real tracks are not directly related to each other but work spectacularly well together. The bass is killer. Don't forget to leave a note for Santa containing the link along with his milk and cookies so he can use bluetooth to stream it in his sleigh. He'll be rocking by the time he hits Florida. Tom

Janice and Bud,

The minute Janice started singing, it sounded like home base! My first impression was "This style sits with Janice's voice and Bud's engineering as comfortable as an old and favourite shoe". Everything rings with authenticity and polish. I really enjoyed just sitting back in my chair, admiring the talent on show and listening... first class music.

Hope you both have a terrific Christmas!
Noel

Wow, you`ve mixed sexy with Christmas and made it rock!
Great vocals that add just a enough spice to the lyrics.
Thanks for livening up the season,

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."
