You are laying by the babbling brook gazing up at the clouds imaging what each one resembles. You gotta love those summer nights when you were younger and had those Images of Wonder.

BiaB style = Very Slow Trance- Like N

I deleted all but the strings.

JohD is playing the keyboards and I am playing everything else.

We hope you like it.

Nice work. Love the mellow strings. Good chillaxin' song.

Mario & Jon,

Nicely done. An enjoyable listen. Has a "haunting" quality to it...

Nice job here, Mario! It's got a really relaxing vibe it, and almost an eeriness or other-worldliness to it as well. It reminds me of something by Tangerine Dream or Brian Eno back in the day. Which is most definitely a good thing in my books!

Great work, and thanks so much for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

I want to thank everyone who took the time to listen and comment on this song. Your comments are greatly appreciated.

Furry, yes that is the word builder from East West's Symphonic Choirs.

Hi Mario and Jon
This really is very haunting (not so sure about “relaxing” maybe more “on the edge of my seat” type stuff. Lol). Nicely played and produced. Good job!

Hi Mario,

Once again you and Jon have turned up the 'ambience' dial and have unleashed creativity. Like with so much of your music, it's very easy to envision this as mood backing for some movie. You definitely have a flair with this genre.

I found this a haunting experience.

All the best,
Noel

Can’t beat your description guys. You set it up well. You alluded to childhood memories of laying back and looking at the sky. Well, my wife - the eternal child, still does that and is filled with wonder. Me? I wonder at her wonder smile

Excellent composition, arrangement and performances.

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."
