Not blowing your horn at all- but you could with just about all your songs!
Best of luck in that final round.

Robert


We appreciate that Robert. This was the rare one that came together quickly.
Thanks for checking it out.

It's such a smooth song, and when I think about the criteria you mentioned above for your entry—while your song was made before they put out the call—that criteria is all I can think about now!

Sensual; smooth; jazzy, just like you mentioned.

It's totally a perfect fit and I can see why you got short-listed. laugh That on its own is a great feat! Congrats. Can't wait to hear the next one, old or new!


Thanks Ember. We’re glad you felt that way about the song fitting the request. I guess Songtradr folks made it through Janice’s southern accent! We always appreciate your comments.

Thanks Josie and we’re glad you liked the rope image. We also felt it worked well. We try to put a lot of thought into the images to hit a sweet spot where they support the lyric without distracting from it.

That about sums it up for me!

Thanks Peter!

Good luck with the pitch and congrats on making to the final review. Several years ago I got a cut on a Gypsy Jazz documentary in the UK. It's quite a feather in your hat when that happens - and the money spends pretty good, too!

Best to you - sounds like a winner to me.

Alan


Thanks Alan. Given that we have no idea how many finalist songs were referred to the music director the chances may be slim. But as long as we have the songs why not give it a go; however we have zero interest in creating songs for the express purpose of pitching. That sounds like work! Cool that you got that placement.

Man, this is great.

Love the overall sound, mix, and of course those gorgeous vocals.

Sounds like an old classic standard.

Super guitar playing, lyrics, mix and arrangement.

Great job y'all.

Take care, Torrey


Thanks Torrey! We appreciate your comments as does Tom who is, unfortunately, still in the recovery mode from Irma. We admire your productions and it is great to hear that you like this one.

A very orthodox blues!
Janice's vocal has a tremendous expression.
Tom's guitar is also splendid.
Wonderful collaboration!
Great mix! I think Neutron is well active this time as well.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Bud, Janice and Tom

Very very nice! Janice's vocal is wonderful and smooth as usual. Great production too.

Well done on the songtradr selection. I have been submitting to them for a couple of months now and have 25 songs licensed so far but these are for the "deals" rather than the "music wanted". I have two currently in "final selection" for "music wanted".

I think the "music wanted" ones are quite lucrative because they are specific requests for a specific song whereas the "deals" are generally for libraries or compilations. There is currently a request for a public domain spiritual that I think Janice would just knock out of the park if you have time to record before the 5th October (or if you have something already?).

Best of luck!

Thanks Joannne. We have seven in the finals for music wanted including this one. And two of them are in the PD spiritual request you mentioned. We had a couple of BiaB productions we’d done 4-5 years ago that seemed to fit that request. We haven’t submitted any to the Deals. I can see submitting when a request resembles something in our catalog but putting a new production together to meet a request seems a wee bit like work! Thanks again for listening and making such a nice comment.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
