Robert and Scott I agree with everything that has been said.
Super intro, great backing tracks, super guitar chops and tone and one outstanding vocal.
Two thumbs up.

Of all of the songs in the world, the WHOLE world, that use "Calliope Terpsichore" this one is my favorite! Seriously, those are some amazing lyrics to have to write and put a melody to. Well done!
Cool song in my book! Thanks for sharing it.

Wow - what a tune! I really liked the general sound of this one. It's got an excellent groove and guitar work, and excellent vocals that match it perfectly. It has a haunting feeling to, and I loved how at the chords it picks up in energy. The whole thing is interesting the entire way through, and really drew me in. You nailed it - thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

Nice work.

Robert & Scott,
Wonderful job on this. Such interesting music in all regards.
Some of the lyric references are outside my knowledge scope, but still interesting. Nice vocals
Scott - your guitar work on this is excellent. Very musical.
Nice use of loops. And nice mix.
Really enjoyed listening to this...

All the best, Noel Thank you, Noel. Atmosphere was the aim, so I`m glad you enjoyed that! Prior to BiaB I hadn`t sung rock songs outside the living rooms of friends back in the day- I think about those times sometimes when loosening up for these songs. Scott always seems to understand the feel I`m asking him to interpret on guitar - his parts were so easy to fit into the song. Robert .

Cool song in my book! Thanks for sharing it.
Having already written the verses, I thought what about singing the lovely creatures names on the chorus. A quick search turned up such gems as Thelxiepia & Aglaopheme...believe me, I chose the easy ones! Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment.

I always enjoy the projects you two work on together, they are always top notch in my book, well done! Dave, Thanks very much. I enjoyed letting loose a bit on the vocals and working with Scott is a pleasure... as long as I can keep up because he fires his guitar parts back to me before I can blink! Robert Wow - what a tune! I really liked the general sound of this one. It's got an excellent groove and guitar work, and excellent vocals that match it perfectly. It has a haunting feeling to, and I loved how at the chords it picks up in energy. The whole thing is interesting the entire way through, and really drew me in. You nailed it - thanks for sharing Deryk, Thanks for your listen and positive review! Robert Ohhh... it's those kind of sirens.
Nice work. Yes, they`re very different, except both kinds usually spell trouble! Thanks for your listen.

Great expressive guitar as we've come to expect from Scott. First time I've heard one of Robert's songs, but well impressed. Enjoyed it so much that I played it twice.

Hello, Robert and Scott
I think that the amazing atmosphere is so well expressed. It is not Lorelei but Odyssey. Your vocals are perfect for this song. Guitar solo is wonderful. Guitar phrases are really beautiful. Vocal loops and percussion are also very effective. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

What did you use for the intro, we hear female voices? Very different, but in a good way. We also detect some Brian Ferry in your vocal (again). And of course you can't go wrong with that! Love Scott's guitar work!

So where's the accompanying light show? Trippy in a very good sense and anchored by a great write with wonderful playing and vocals. Just the right edge to make me want to listen again to some of the best from '66-68. IMO, there was some really great music during that era that tends to get lost within all the not so good stuff. This sounds to me like a cut from the best of the best. This is memorable guys. Congratulations. A beat era lyric with a bit of folk/psychedelia backing-- how cool.

fj Floyd, I mixed this after reading your DRUMS UP! post, so I hope you heard them. I enjoy hearing strange names or references in lyrics that make me do a double take... no Greek mythology lesson intended on this one! Thank you for your ever attentive listen and good feedback. Robert

The thing that strikes me the most here is the interesting chord choices. Some fine guitar work and vocal supporting an unusual set of lyrics. This is not your everyday type of song but one that challenges the listener to take a journey. I took the ride and enjoyed it! Good collab, Tom

This is a great tune IMO. I love the overall vibe and it's really well mixed.
Super nice lyrical images.
I'm not sure about the Christian speaking in tongues image mixed in with otherwise classical pantheon imagry. But this is a very small thing. It's fine actually. I'm just wondering if you might find a stronger image?
The vocals and guitar work are good and really fit.
Nice job guys,
Ian

Ian, Thank you for your listen and thoughtful comments - I`m especially glad you liked the mix. I remember thinking that speaking in tongues line could be interpreted as a Christian reference, though it has meaning in many cultures... but then my research was limited to looking at the painting!

Wow! Love this.
Something different. Beautiful clear guitar and very cool lyrics. Atmosphere plus.
Cheers.
Thank you for your listen and likes! Robert Love the lyrics on this one. Very literary. That I was listening to Rush!! The sound is great. I too thought I was listening to a radio production! Great job guys. David, I get the Rush reference ( remembering you are a big fan) - this was probably more influenced by the Pete Brown/Jack Bruce Cream songs I still think are right up there. Many thanks for listening and commenting. Robert

An outstanding song, embraced by amazing lyrics.
This is a showstopper.
The accompanying guitar work is excellent, and you have collaborated to deliver a remarkable piece of music overall.
I agree very cool lyrics and vocal. Thanks for checking out the song and the awesome comments.. Robert & Scott,
Wonderful job on this. Such interesting music in all regards.
Some of the lyric references are outside my knowledge scope, but still interesting. Nice vocals
Scott - your guitar work on this is excellent. Very musical.
Nice use of loops. And nice mix.
Really enjoyed listening to this...
fj Thanks Floyd your comments mean allot to me. I have really enjoyed working on these projects with Robert. I think this is Roberts best vocal and did such an awesome job on the mix. Usually we beat the mix up but he nailed on the first demo he sent me..

This is excellent! Great lyrics and vocals by Robert, and outstanding tone and playing by Scott.
Very nicely done... I really enjoyed this.

Robert /Scott
Excellent progressive rock - wonderful lyric with atmospheric guitars and vocals. Clever and entertaining. Much enjoyed.
Peter Thanks Peter. Have really enjoyed working with Robert. Wonderful blend of musical styles. Made even more varied with Scott's guitar. Very creative. And the lyrics are engaging and clever.
great listen! Thanks for checking out the song your comments are appreciated. Excellent collaboration.
Great expressive guitar as we've come to expect from Scott. First time I've heard one of Robert's songs, but well impressed. Enjoyed it so much that I played it twice. Thanks for checking out the song. Robert uses some very creative chord patterns and which allows for some interesting opportunities to wind in and around the chorus's and verses with the guitar melody. Hello, Robert and Scott
I think that the amazing atmosphere is so well expressed. It is not Lorelei but Odyssey. Your vocals are perfect for this song. Guitar solo is wonderful. Guitar phrases are really beautiful. Vocal loops and percussion are also very effective. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Glad you liked the song. What did you use for the intro, we hear female voices? Very different, but in a good way. We also detect some Brian Ferry in your vocal (again). And of course you can't go wrong with that! Love Scott's guitar work!
Rob and Anne-Marie Thanks Rob and Anne-Marie. There are sure some very cool realtracks in the new BIAB. Robert has become an expert at blending styles and Real Tracks. Makes for some very cool backtracks and lyrics.

Cool and interesting! Loved that rhythm guitar on the right - gives the song a subtle but yet definitive drive. Unusual in so many ways, yet a comfortable feel in my ears. Great song, production and delivery.
The ethereal effect is near mesmerizing - particularly the intro. Scott's guitar work is superb and your vocal fits very nicely in the project. Beyond cool!

Alan Alan, !`m really pleased you had a listen and found the atmosphere intended- your recent psychedelic song had some interesting ideas I might borrow sometime! Thanks for your kind comments. Robert

So where's the accompanying light show? Trippy in a very good sense and anchored by a great write with wonderful playing and vocals. Just the right edge to make me want to listen again to some of the best from '66-68. IMO, there was some really great music during that era that tends to get lost within all the not so good stuff. This sounds to me like a cut from the best of the best. This is memorable guys. Congratulations. A beat era lyric with a bit of folk/psychedelia backing-- how cool. J&B (Most B as J was a child during the time I allude to ) Bot you conjured some so great memories with the light show. I remember how they use to make the music so much more cooler. Blob lighting, strobes. Those were the days my friends. Glad you liked the song.. The thing that strikes me the most here is the interesting chord choices. Some fine guitar work and vocal supporting an unusual set of lyrics. This is not your everyday type of song but one that challenges the listener to take a journey. I took the ride and enjoyed it! Good collab, Tom Thanks Tom Glad you liked the song. This is a great tune IMO. I love the overall vibe and it's really well mixed.
Super nice lyrical images.
I'm not sure about the Christian speaking in tongues image mixed in with otherwise classical pantheon imagry. But this is a very small thing. It's fine actually. I'm just wondering if you might find a stronger image?
The vocals and guitar work are good and really fit.
Nice job guys,
Ian Thanks Ian Glad you liked the song. Wow! Love this.
Something different. Beautiful clear guitar and very cool lyrics. Atmosphere plus.
Cheers.
Thanks for checking out the song Love the lyrics on this one. Very literary. That I was listening to Rush!! The sound is great. I too thought I was listening to a radio production! Great job guys. Thanks David. I think Robert hit the ball out of the park with the mix on this one. Glad you liked the song Robert / Scott,

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."
