Hi All,

Here's my first new production using BIAB 2018 for Mac - a slow jam type folk-rock thing, or something like that… LOL! smile

This is called I'ma Love U.

Turned on the late night radio
Lou Reed playing slow
I’ve been missing the best of you
And I wanted you to know

I’ma love u some
I’ma love u some
I’ma run and run
Cause I’ma love u some

Took a midnight drive to town
Why I just don’t know
All the stars are covered in grey
And the clouds are hanging low

I’ma love u some
I’ma love u some
I’ma run and run
Cause I’ma love u some

Turned on the morning news
Everything just blows
I’ve been drinking my coffee cold
And I wanted you to know

I’ma love u some
I’ma love u some
I’ma run and run
Cause I’ma love u some

All BIAB Tracks:
2474: Bass, Acoustic, Held Ev 085
2505: Piano, Electric, HeldChords 085
2914: Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Folky16thsBrent Ev16 085
832: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm, AltCountryMoody Ev 075
Loop: Chillout/Chillout_dimensions_145

As always - thanks for listening!

I liked this and the style of the song, for the life of me you did remind me of someone, but I just couldn't place them.

By the way I loved the title

Bob this is really good. Your vocal and the lyrics are great and your mix is super.

I really liked this one.

Excellent! You had me hooked right from the first verse:

"Turned on the late night radio
Lou Reed playing slow
I’ve been missing the best of you
And I wanted you to know"

Nice!

As always I really dig your vocal, such a distinctive sound you have.

Really good, Bob!

Bob,

I enjoyed listening. The sound was great and the song had everything that good songs need. Even now, 10 minutes after the music stopped, I've still got the chorus in my head.

DEFINITELY another success!

All the best,
Noel

Bob,

That opening is an ear-catcher - couldn't help but listen after that. As mentioned several times before, there is a vine to this that's terrific and almost addictive. My favorite from you in a long time. Best to you.

Man, did you every pack a lot into a bit over two minutes!

The production is excellent and hangs together nicely at a higher volume.

That held bass had our sub walking across the floor smile

We've said this before but you have established a remarkable signature sound.
And what makes it even cooler is that you always vary things up. You never get formulaic.

Great write -- we love this:

"Turned on the morning news
Everything just blows
I’ve been drinking my coffee cold
And I wanted you to know"

The out front (but not too much so) vocal carries everything so well.

Kudos!

I really enjoyed the lyrics! This song overall reminded me a little bit of a song you would sing to someone who had wanderlust and couldn't sleep. Really pretty. grin

Looks like I'm way late for this train.

As Josie said, nice vibe. I remember reading Jimmy Webb talk about some guy who had made fun of his lyrics by reciting them. This is exactly the same sort of thing - I saw the title and my inner critic immediately said How ungrammatical! and my smarter half said It's gonna sound great in context!

Which, of course, it did. laugh

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

Hello, Bob

The melody of ”I'ma love u some" will not leave my ears.
As Janice & Bud says, you every pack a lot into a bit over two minutes.
But every tunes are so catchy.
And your vocal is very nice as usual.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

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."
