THe disco beat move into rock in the Madchester era - dance rock was a perfect melding I suppose.
You've melded the exuberance of the beat with a very up beat guitar melody in a totally dancing happy track.
VERY nifty guitar playing Mr B.

I saw this song had a good number of comments so I knew I had to listen. Now I know why. I can't say much beyond what is said. Really nice job on this!

This is pretty good as others have said already. Yeah, nice tone on the guitar and some tasty playing as well.

Disco is actually a close cousin to funk. And they both lend well to jazz. I can get into them all when it's tasty and this is.

Thanks Rob for the nice words! This song has never had a lyric/vocal. I posted a song called "Apple Of God's Eye" once but not the same song/melody. T

Torrey,

You know, I despised disco back in the day, and while I’ll never like it a ton (or bring myself to admit that I do), my appreciation and respect for it has grown over time. You do a great job of utilizing that sound to make an inviting and engaging song. Easy on the ear—really like the drum solo section you have going on here as well. Great job on this!

Kindest regards,

Deej

Hello, Torrey

It makes feel George Benson somewhere, but it's not a jazz fusion.
It's very original using disco beat.
Really gorgeous playing!
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Torrey,

From opening to closing, I found this a really, really engaging listen. There's no doubt in mind at all that the disco groove is a perfect vehicle to drive this song along. You've excelled yourself. Everything about this captured my imagination and my attention. I was with you all the way.

All the best,
Noel

Thanks for the listen Robert! The synth effect is a ping pong type of panning being used. T

Thanks David, Deryk, Janne, J&B, Clifton, rayc, HearToLearn, Herb, Deej, Shigeki, dcuny, Noel, LPMan, Joanne and SD for the listen and comments! I appreciate it! To answer your question David, I can’t repost old version of this one because I deleted it. The effects used were just compression, reverb and delay. Hopefully this group hug will please some sad souls worried and post bumping!!! Thanks, T

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.

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."
