Song was created in BIAB by entering my chords, edited & rendered in PT, mixed & mastered in Cubase.
Simple melody, nice beat.

There You Are

Hope you enjoy!

Hi Mick,
Thank you for posting this.
I think that it is a wonderful melody.
I was surprised near the end when you doubled the sax.
Is there any way I could download it?

Best regards
Michee

Fantastic tune! I liked it very much.
Is that still your synthophone you're playing? Can't believe it's a MIDI-instrument; the way you put the feeling in your playing.

Great work!

Mick,

You and Jerry sound fantastic brother. That is one fine production you two made together.

The Sax sounds gorgeous with those airy pads in the background. Beautiful mix and song, I enjoyed listening to that !! WTG !!

Now this is music. Two thumbs up Mick.

I love your horn playing, super chops. A very professional mix also.

There you are and here I am...

Wondering:

Is this original?
Where are the vocals?
How you can make such a beautiful instrumental piece?
Where can I download it?
Can I play this at some of the gigs I perform at?

Lovely! Normally, I don't care much for instrumentals but this is beautiful

This is one of the most beautiful instrumentals I have EVER heard! I love it! Reminds me a little bit of 'Bilitis' but this is really SO beautiful! You are a MASTER with this! Thank you SO much for sharing

How much of this is REAL, as opposed to MIDI or RTs?

OMG! Now I'm onto your 2nd track. How do you do this? If you were a young woman and here physically, you would be lying down by now! (willingly or otherwise)

2nd track seems to end a bit abruptly?

I think Sting would LOVE your rendition of 'Fields Of Gold' - Another beautiful track

Now hitting the rock tracks. Are you tryng to blow my brains out? How have you mixed this? What tools? What software? How much is REAL and how much is studio work?

Where can I see you play live?

ALL of your tracks are so rich and luscious! It is like eating a really sweet peach to listen to.

Man! I want your album!

Ever heard of Mike Ottis? He's a big name in Austria as a sax player and instrumentalist but his music isn't a patch compared to yours!

WOW! I just saw Sam's post.
I'm away on vacation & thought I'd check in.

The song is an original.
There are no vocals. It's called an "instrumental"! ROTFL (where's Russ?)
It was recorded in my study.
I haven't offered it for download. One of the reasons is...I would like to have it on my CD & play it live before others are playing it!
It's ALL midi except for the vocal samples that Jerry added.
I never actually thought of the Synthophone as a midi instrument tho. (although it is)
I'm still very early in the learning curve. It's not as forgiving as a sax.

There's a story about the mockingbird on the "Fields of Gold" thread.

I'm truly glad y'all enjoyed it. I must say I do too. The things that BIAB/PT allow me to do, blows my mind!

Sam...if you really want to see me play, get me some gigs in Europe!
Seriously...when I sell my business & retire, I'd like to tour again. I really loved it in the 60's & 70's.

Ive just listened to this song.

Really nice melody, simple but yet it draws you in, great job.

Im currently using band in a box to write a Sax CD and this has just inspired me even more.

Many thanks for your wonderful music.

I enjoyed listening to "There You Are". It was lovely and the harmonies at the end were great.
As with most good things it sounds so flowing and effortless. Beautiful.

This was great, PERIOD! (execpt from what Sam asked) as I too would love to hear a lyric to this beautiful melody.

And as usual a solid heartfelt performance from the Mickster!

There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.
