#Hot100
Here is a song I wrote in for the Top 100 challenge. This is the inspiration I felt after reviewing the present songs on the Top 100 billboard chart. https://soundcloud.com/countryjammer/the-hundred

The song is title is " The Hundred "
I used band in the box 2018 style (Hankps1.med country sw8)
539 bass, electric, Pop sw 120
528 Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking hank sw
real drums-Nashville swing 8
327 Guitar, Acoustic strumming Hank sw
320 Pedal steel, background Hank
Mixed bb , vocals and variax thru Line 6 Spider Jam amp.
Bear in mind I am a songwriter...not a vocalist.

" The Hundred "
(Chorus:)I was lookin' for inspiration..driftin' through the chart
Hopin' to find a song that that could speak to my heart
Somethin' I could lean on, come up with a number one
But out of today's top one hundred, I couldn't make one my own

Today's country song's don't hang like they used to
The old ones played ten years and still sounded brand new
Like a lit cigarette on a rough and windy day
Fired up for a minute, then they all burn away
(Chorus:)
and so on and such and such...... Dan #Top100

Dan,

That's some good ol' Country music. You have a good voice for this style (I would turn it up just a bit).

Welcome to the Showcase.

Great country tune. The vocals are a bit far back in the mix. Otherwise spot on.Rob

Hi Dan, Welcome to the showcase! Clever song. The vocal was so low I could barely hear it. Looking forward to hearing more from you.

Really nice work on this one smile I'd personally turn up the vocals a touch - but aside from that, everything is on point smile Your vocal tone is perfectly suited for this type of music. It comes across as very natural. Some interesting lyrics to boot!

Nice job - can't wait to hear more from you. Thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

For some reason I can't access the song. It says it's not longer available? Is it just me? Eager to hear it!

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."
