Whispering AsiaI posted the title before I got everything else ready. The entire post will be up in just a moment or two. Duh!! This is the second of two songs I put together with the new Chinese instruments from BIAB 2024. This one has fuller and richer backing tracks and is noticeably more subdued. Noel Adams and I exchanged some thoughts about this particular song as I brought it to fruition. To make a long story short, I went on YouTube and watched/listened to clips from a couple of Chinese romance movies for some insight and guidance on how to make a few changes to better catch the Asian mood. After a few adjustments to my original track, this is where I ended up. It's a soundscape for a romantic setting. Let me know what you think. Thanks. Alan As soon as I locate the file with the backing tracks, I'll post it. Here are the band members: Title: Untitled Song File:Whispering Asia.SGU Key=D , Tempo 65, Length (m:s)=1:58 Style is _ROSY2.STY (Rosy Modern Pop) RealTracks in style: 4109:Bass, Sub Synth CityLightsStranger 65 RealTracks in style: 1840:Synth Pad, PopModernGrooveMellow Ev16 075 RealTracks in style: 4110:Synth, PinkRoomChamberHit 65 MIDI SuperTracks in song: 4368:Synth, Pad, SynthMasterLastInstant HighEthereal 75 RealTracks in song: 4381:Erhu, Background SimplePentatonic Ev 060 RealTracks in song: 4568:Pipa, Background CalmingMelodicShortPhrases ev 065 RealTracks in song: 4567:Dizi Flute, Background CalmingMelodic ev 065 RealDrums in Song:Dholak8ths: a: Simple b: Busy Hope some of you might like it.

Alan,
Peaceful and flowing is the first thing that came to mind... A beautiful melody.
I love the blend of the instruments and the two synth pads sound really great. Also, the mix is superb.
Loved everything about this.

Did somebody say "lush"? Guess I'll have to say it. Lush! Alan, this is really nice! My only complaint is that the song ended before I could drift off to sleep. Ha! Keep up the great musical explorations!

Needless to say (say it anyway)...not a genre I've ever listened to.
But that certainly sounds good.
Excellent mix.

Job well done, I like it.
This would make a wonderful soundtrack for a movie.
Very serene and paints of picture of rice patties ready for harvest.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Nice! The bass gives a nice low end to the song I usually don't hear. I couldn't say whether it's even close to authentic, but it's pleasant to listen to!

Great use of those RTs, Alan, and I like how you added some to the style. It's cool how you did some research. Man, I know there's a lot of people in that country, but your music shows those majestic mountains encircled by clouds. One can almost discern Taos archetecture, which is purposely meant to blend seamlessly with the natural beauty.

Bob Hi Bob, Many thanks. I spent more time on the mix than everything else combined. Glad you enjoyed it - thanks for letting me know. Alan

Keep up the great musical explorations! Hi Ron, Lush? Oh - you weren't referring to a propensity of an excessive intake of alcoholic beverage. Glad I got that out of the way! Thank you very much for the kind words! I intentionally kept is short as most western ears have a hard time adapting to the sounds created by many of the various Asian instruments. We're used to seven notes in a scale whereas the Chinese scale has only five notes. I think that's true of most Asian music properties. Also, many of the Asian instruments are nor fretted, often making the transitions of notes via a simple slide of the finger on the fretting surface rather than a fretted change. Additionally, chords are generally not perceived in Asian music - they simply use linear notes that, in their opinion, work well together. They don't see them as notes in a chord - just the next note that works according to their ears. Okay - Beginning Asian Music 101 class is over. Hear the bell ringing? Glad you enjoyed it, Ron. I appreciate you letting me know. Thanks for the listen! Alan

fj What? You don't listen to some this a couple times a week? Ha! Actually, I do. I also like music from The Balkans. yes, there are some forms of music I really do not like - but that's a conversation I prefer to not open. Thank you very much for the listen. I'm delighted it sounded good to you. Alan

This is really mesmerizing, beautiful Eastern soundscape and lovely melody, but you have added your own personal touch with many nice chords that fit the overall mood. I'm really glad PGMusic brought us these Chinese RTs, they work for other genres too. Good balance of instruments and mix. Enjoyable journey through the peaceful Eastern countryside by the water, I can imagine beautiful temples and those curved roofs.

Alan, I am not an expert on this genre, well in fact I know nothing about, so I can't say if this is authentic or not. But I will say it is a very beautiful song. I think you captured the romantic vibe perfectly.
Great mix!

As far as the research, Noel Adams gave me a few hints It helped a lot! And yep, there a re quite a few folks over there. I'm delighted this took you on a trip away from all those folks and into the serenity of the countryside. And yes, that is gorgeous architecture. It's a very pretty country. Thanks for the very nice comments! I sincerely appreciate them. Take care, Alan

Great mix! Hi Mario, I'm no expert on the genre, either. But after almost 2 years in Asia, I kinda got a feel for the music. At least I think I did. I'll take romantic beauty as a compliment any day. Thank you! Wishing you the very best, Alan

But I'm glad you liked it nonetheless. Hmmm, in a Blues song - I might take that as a challenge one of these days. That might create a few cracks in Stevie Ray's headstone! Take care! Alan

Outstanding melody
And the Asian mood perfectly captured
My brother's wife is Chinese and she really liked it too
There can't really be any more praise
Fantastic work Al

And that fact that your Chinese sister-in-law liked it is very special. I guess that validates the authenticity of my arrangement - a very nice feeling. Again, thank you very much. Alan

A fabulous example of those new RTs in use Al. Very nicely done...shades of Madam Butterfly in the wistful passages.

Hi Rah,
Thanks for the listen and very kind comments! Madam Butterfly - that was a few years ago! I doubt there will ever be another movie/play about a Japanese Samurai (his daughter, actually) with heavy Italian influences.
That was quite a compliment - thank you! I always appreciate your feedback and visits.
As I think you know, I do a lot of exploration in the dark halls of BIAB and sometimes find something that inspires me. I'm kind of a "no holds barred" guy when it comes to music creation.
Here's hoping your 2024 is the best year ever.
Alan

Sounds authentic to me.

I'm hungry now... Thanks, B.D. Good to hear it sounds authentic. That's what i was hoping for. I personally don't care for Asian food - Chinese, Japanese, etc. But almost anything you can put jalapenos on is usually a winner with me. Me gusta mucho! Thanks for the visit and nice comments. Hope you, your father, and the rest of your family are doing OK. Alan

Simply beautiful.
It’s perfect for the scenario you described ... Janice said she could see the serene spot perfectly!
Your journey continues and we continue to admire the results of your willingness to explore new musical vistas.
Enjoyed it!

Hi Al,
I am a bit late, but I am trying to catch up with a lot of songs made by you and others on the forum, Al.
Although I'm not a real fan of Eastern music, you know how to capture their music in a very nice way!
I am sure I can't do that.
I think I told you that in my post to your first song, although, as I recall, that one has some more Western toughes in it.
Well done, Al

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.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
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."
