Hello Friends,

Here's a little blues rock ditty that David Snyder and I co-wrote. David was on the road so I mixed it. First time I've used Neutron Elements.

It was great working with David. He is so talented and easy to work with. It's been such a long time since I've done a collab or posted anything new on here. Thank you David! Virtual hugs.

Comments welcome. Hope you enjoy.

I Don't Wanna Think About You

Written with BIAB/RB. Mixed with Reaper.
RTs : GTR 2624, Bass 1546, Drums Blues Rock Shuffle, Organ 2692, E Piano 1904.
Guitar David Snyder. Vocals/harmonies Josie Beck.

Well done all round on this to you both! Terrific vocal, Josie ( love the way you took the backing down for the verse midway) and the harmonies on the chorus sound great.
Catchy and very enjoyable- a cool welcome back shuffle.

Thank you very much Robert. I appreciate that very much. Gotta give David the credit for taking the backing down - his idea.
So happy you enjoyed it.

I completely misread this title as, "I don't want to think about you David Snyder". Glad to see that it was just a collab and not a stab! laugh Had a good laugh at myself, but my grin only got wider when I heard the song. Absolutely fantastic you guys!

Josie & David,

Nice job on this. The laid-back feel is easy to get lost in. A cool BAND.

Josie, great to see you getting back to your music. Good job on the mix. The vocal is engaging. The arrangement keeps your ear involve throughout. Cool background vocals.

Enjoyed.

Hi Josie & David,

Great song! And the delivery is perfect. The vocal is super and the band is great - good choice of instruments. Love the variations on the background tracks.

And yes, David is a great guy. Haver spoken with him on the phone a time or two and he's nothing but a class act all the way. I feel as though I'm bragging when I saw that!

Your vocal is stand out ... strong and edgy yet with tempered edge.

Totally loved it. Three thumbs up (I guess I didn't mention that physical weirdness!)

Well to Ember's point it was originally titled "I Don't Want to Think About You David Snyder" but I begged Josie to change that.

Kidding!!!!!!! smile

Seriously though, Josie was so delightful to work with on this--I just scribbled out some lyrics and tossed a few guitar licks over the fence and the next thing I knew she was done and I was listening to it in the car in the Redwoods National Park and it sounded great.

She did like the whole thing, and I think her selection of groove, instruments, feeling, vocals, mix, everything was just perfect and totally pro. It sounds so much like the artist that she is. The woman has her groove on big time here in my opinion. Radio ready as they say.

I think Josie is starting to get a little dangerous with her new plug-ins people.

Watch out.

We are always down with a blues shuffle!

This is a fine re-entry to the forum.

It has a fun laid back and slinky vibe.

Nice vocal performances and we suspect you put some time into the production and it all paid off!

Congrats...hope for another soon.

Josie, you did a fantastic job singing this as well as producing and excellent mix. Everything is perfect!

You both should be very proud of this one.

This is a keeper.

Ps - Josie, it is great hearing you sing again, welcome back. Plus you can back with a killer performance!

Alan, I couldn't agree more about David. So that explains the secret to your picking prowess...LOL...just kidding. I hope Di is feeling better. Thank you very much.

Josie and David,



This is a GREAT listen! You've both done a spectacular job. Kudos! Josie, it's so good seeing you back in the forum smile You've really nailed these vocals!!! You sound in absolutely top form smile

The band that you've used is fantastic. I've never stumbled across any sound like this in BIAB. From the start, it grabbed me and kept on driving me all the way through the song. I really enjoyed the journey.

From start to end, this gleams with song-writing and song-presenting competence.

All the best to you both,
Noel

Wow, you guys nailed this on so many level! I wouldn't change a thing - in particular, your vocal on this is absolutely flawless. Of course, the song as a whole is great but your vocal on this tune really knocks it out of the park. Great arrangement, great vocals, and the perfect level of catchiness.

Amazing work guys - keep it up, and thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

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."
