Hi All, Here's a jaunty tune about an evil dictator with a Napoleon complex: https://soundcloud.com/abondaruk5/putler-worldPutler World by The Fighting Bodnars I run a tight kleptocracy, my people are repressed, I’m filthy rich and they are poor; they’d better not protest. When I’m feeling antsy, my opponents end up dead, Some fly out of windows, some are shot in head. I want a new world order, our Russkiy Mir reclaimed, Rebuild the Russian empire, as the West goes down in flames. I have a lust for conquest, power and control, I have no qualms or morals, I have no heart or soul. I don’t care how many die, as I conduct my genocide, Rules apply to others, they don’t apply to me. Repeat chorus I won’t respect your borders, I won’t respect your seas, ‘Cause rules apply to others, they don’t apply to me. When I invade a country, I make up some pretext, For now, I'm gonna take Ukraine, then maybe Poland next. Repeat chorus I want a world where “might makes right,” If you push back, we’re gonna fight, And if you try to stop us, we’ll threaten you with nukes. I’m a reckless opportunist, completely conscience-free, I’m gonna die soon anyway, so I’ll start World War 3. Repeat chorus All instrumental tracks are by BIAB: WesternSwing Soloist Medley (1874) Style is _DIXMMDL.STY (Dixieland Medium Solo Medley) RealTracks in style: ~~1616:Tuba, DixielandFast Sw 165 ('A' only) RealTracks in style: ~~1613:Banjo, Tenor, Rhythm DixielandFastA-B Sw 165 RealTracks in style: ~~1635:Medley [8 bars] Dixieland, TromboneSol, GuitarAcSol, TrumpetSol, RealTracks in style: ~~1621:Clarinet, Soloist DixielandFastA-B Sw 165 RealDrums [in style:Dixieland^6-a:HiHat 2 Feel, b:Ride & Cross-stick Also used Audacity DAW for vocal edits and mixing

The last time I heard a Dixieland style protest song was...well, never. Nope, not ever. This is really original and just outstanding in every way. LOVE the arrangement and the creative use of BiaB sounds. The lyrics are quite clever but the message is direct. The vocals have an appropriate world weary raspy beauty. The harmony lines are pushed back in the mix but provide great support. There is nothing about this song that I would change. Great song!!!

Thank you, Mario!
I originally tried for an Eastern European-sounding gypsy music vibe, but BIAB has more Dixieland styles, so I went with that.

Very cool, and a BIG welcome to the forum, abondurak. I read this post yesterday, and couldn't wait to hear it on better speakers this morning. Well worth the wait, and what a terrific song for your first here. Good write, and I really really like the tuba treatment. Excellent lyrics.

Cool tune. Nice work on the lyrics.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

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."
