Hi, friends !:))

I wanted to try and do
something in 4 voices
so I wrote this little
lovesong to experiment
on !

The Style is : _COURAGE.STY
and the instros are: Bass: 2610
Piano: 2728
Drums: RD:s Blues Rock Shuffle
Guitar: 1585
Organ: 2729 and
Voice Oohs Aahs: 2975

The link is:

http://soundcloud.com/user-337827005/let-me-hug-you-2


The box version is slightly rerecorded:

http://app.box.com/s/s4nh1mu1r26cpu7vhm4w49y5ro9jpahy

and the lyrics are as follows:

Let Me Hug You All Thru This Magical Night ( Words and music by Norman Wibe)


I love you Darlin´
that´s clear as the clear blue sky
wanna take you Darlin´
in my arms as you pass me by
so let me Darlin´
caress you and hold you tight
my little Darlin´
and hug you, all thru this magical night
Darlin´

whenever we meet
I start to sway
on tremblin´feet
what can I say
my Darlin´

´cause you´re so sweet
winter turns to may
can you hear the beat
as my heart goes gay
all the way

I need you Darlin
I need you for ever more
I´ll kiss you Darlin´
your lips I do adore
I´ll hug you Darlin´
let me hold you, it feels allright
my sweetest Darlin´
and hug you, all thru this magical night

whenever we meet
I start to sway
on tremblin´feet
what can I say
my Darlin´

´cause you´re so sweet
winter turns to may
can you hear the beat
as my heart goes gay
all the way

I want you Darlin´
my sweetheart and only one
adore you Darlin´
with you there´s always fun
my dearest Darlin´
you´re my star and you´re my sun
my only Darlin´
let me hug you, all thru this magical night

Recorded with Mixcraft 8 - reverb and comp used

Cheers
Dani

Dani,
Well done tune! Multi vocal take worked very well with "Oohs Aahs" Got nice 50s love song mood. Liked it!

The only thing, drums sound a bit flat... could it be that your mix is less than 256K? Sometimes I forget to up the bitrate for MP3s and get similar effect... Thank you for sharing.

Sweet and warm melody, chording and singing, expressing nicely the approaching summer of love. Very catchy and super harmonies, crying for a video full of serene sea scenes smile

Dani, this is another great "surf" style tune from you. No one here does them as well as you in my opinion! You have the ability to sing in a very wide vocal range and stay on pitch and that's not easy to do! Thanks, Torrey

Hi, Floyd !:))

Thank you for your
most kind words so
very much appreciated !
Now over here I think we should
be able to start easing
some of the Corona-restrictions
maybe sometimes around half of may ?

We, that is me and Li and our families
have so far been well and we do hope
we´ll stay that way too !
Our only regret is that we are not
able to travel to our summer-home
in Spain during summer but who knows
maybe later next fall !

Stay safe !

Cheers
Dani

So smooth, Dani. The voices are right on --wish there was an a capella version. I had a couple listens to see if the drum really does bother me. It does. That snare seems so harsh for this beautiful melody and voices. Great writing. Stay well.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Dani ...

You have a signature sound that's immediately recognizable. And it's wonderfully smooth and savvy sound. This is so smooth ... like fine silk. The retro sound is till a winner today. Also, loved the key modulation!

Excellent!

Wishing you the best. Be safe ...

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."
