June 20, 2025  -  User Showcase Song: Gone

This project started with an AI concept. I reworked the music and the lyrics, editing the content significantly.

I used Band in A Box for all the tracks except one, and Synth V Solaria on the vocals.

This was kind of a self indulgent project...longer than it should be, and a few other things.... another song about missing home and reminiscing about the old times. I think I figured out a few things on this for some future projects.... we'll see. I was planning to play the guitars and the bass as well as the piano but in the end, decided to simply spend the time on the piano track which had me second guessing myself up to and including this version. Getting the piano to sound right and fit.... I think I got a few more grey hairs as a result.

Oh yeah... microchords were used in quite a few places. They were very useful for a few things.
