This is an instrumental track written last year.

The band:
- I sequenced this track on Reason.
- I played all the instruments
- Since I'm not a good guitarist, I generated a guitar solo in BIAB.
- The solo was from George Benson style.

Thanks.
Noel

Noel, you are a very talented multi-instrumental musician.
Super groove and arrangement.
Great mix.
I really liked this!

PS - I think you should bring up the volume on that guitar lead.

Thank very much MarloD. I'm glad someone appreciate my music. Yes, will try to bring up the guitar solo more. It's amazing what BIAB solo generator can do. Thanks again

Noel, cool composition. Sounds like the soundtrack to a Beverly Hills Cop action sequence. Nice use of the BiaB soloist, I agree the level could be raised a tiny bit in the mix. Super arrangement and mix, you have a great groove going here.

That was a very cool detour! The RT guitar solo sat really well in the mix.

Cool groove and jam. Very enjoyable. I'm impressed that you played at the instruments. Good work mixing all those tracks. The BIAB guitar solo fits in perfectly with the other tracks.

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

Hi, Noel,

Man, that's a terrific sound! Reminds me of late 70s and early 80s. Nothing wrong \with that.

Your musicianship shows sweet on this one. Love the mix, backing tracks - well, every dang thing about it.

Thanks for a fun and funky listen!
