The name of the song came about by accident. I started this song back in mid March and it has taken this long to finish it. After I got the chord structure and tempo down to a bit of searching to find a style that seemed to make sense. Well I had to save it and could not come up with a name I saved it as unknown. Coming up with a melody was very difficult. Nothing seemed to work. After six weeks this was the result. Was it Van Gogh who cut off an ear trying to find inspiration lol. Hope you like it. Unknown ****** Song Summary ************* Title: Unknown File:Unknown.SGU Key=F , Tempo 90, Length (m:s)=2:39 No intro. 56 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 56.

I love the fragility of this song. Very beautiful and moving...
Are you playing the Gretsch for this piece? Great tone.

I used to do a lot of instrumentals back in the day, and coming up with a good melody was almost always a struggle, so I understand your pain!
You pulled it off though, sounds good, and nice tone too.
Track sounds good too, Oohs-Aahs worked well I thought.
Very nice, Scott, I always enjoy hearing your work.

Scott, I can see this as a background piece for TV or a movie. Nice backing and the oohs ahhs really add a nice texture. Great little melody, perfect for the song. Good job, Tom

Are you playing the Gretsch for this piece? Great tone.
Bob Thank Bob Glad you liked the song. Yes I am playing my Gretsch 6128 on this on through a Garnet Amp. I used Garnet Amps when I was a kid. They were made in Winnepeg Canada in the late 60's early 70's I used to do a lot of instrumentals back in the day, and coming up with a good melody was almost always a struggle, so I understand your pain!
You pulled it off though, sounds good, and nice tone too.
Track sounds good too, Oohs-Aahs worked well I thought.
Very nice, Scott, I always enjoy hearing your work. Thanks Dave So glad you liked the song.. Scott, I can see this as a background piece for TV or a movie. Nice backing and the oohs ahhs really add a nice texture. Great little melody, perfect for the song. Good job, Tom Wow thanks Tom. I have submitted a couple of instrumentals and Robert and I have submitted a couple of our songs to Soundcloud with no luck. Mind you with the thousands of people submitting to Songtradr the songs would have to be pretty special to get notices. Fun dreaming tho...

Scott - a lovely use of a wonderful guitar & amp combo. Lots of space in the arrangement for the guitar melody. Would you explain you amp/mic set up please?

We agree with those who mentioned the cinematic qualities. It has a flow that would seem to work well for a lof of film or tv as it brings up lots of different images to us.
Beyond all that it's simply a nice, well performed and thoroughly pleasing production.
Glad you didn't abandon it!

Scott, this is a fun song to listen to. I enjoy the way you used the background vocals behind the guitar. By the way, that is a nice looking guitar icon you have on SoundCloud!

Shigeki Adachi Thanks Shigeki Really glad you like the song. Thanks for checking it out Scott - a lovely use of a wonderful guitar & amp combo. Lots of space in the arrangement for the guitar melody. Would you explain you amp/mic set up please? Thanks Rayc for checking out the song. I use a usb mic for recording. I get a bit of latency with it. I use Reaper to adjust the timing to the backtrack. The amp I used for this song is a late 60's hand wired Garnet Sessionman...

I thoroughly enjoyed this I love how gentle and fragile this sounds. It is almost lullaby-esque, but the guitars and pulsing beat behind it really push it to be much more. The way the guitar works with those quiet choirs in the background gives it an otherworldly quality. Great work - thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

J&B Thanks so much Janice and Bud for the awesome comments. After it was completed I did feel ok about the song. Will put it in the daily jam rotation.

Wow Scott,
I never heard a Gretsch guitar being used this way (or maybe I missed something, thought it was a typical Rock'n Roll guitar).
BEAUTIFUL!

Thanks Jim for checking out the song and commenting. The new ohhs and ahhs tracks are so well done. There is definitely some secret sauce in how BIAB developers get them to works so well. Thanks for the comment on the guitar icon on soundcloud. This Gretsch has become a favorite of late.

BEAUTIFUL!
Rob Thanks Rob This is a small body Gretsch similar to the one George Harrison used during the early years of the Beatles. The Duojet has a very unique sound. Pretty song Scott! The chord structure is really good as well your tone! Thanks, Torrey Thanks Torrey Glad you liked the song

Hi Scott. Lovely tune and melody. Really nice guitar work.
I personally didn't care for the backing oos. Maybe try substituting a horn pad or something. And have the pad drop out at times.
But I like the tune and everything you've done with the guitar.
Peace,
Ian

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."
