The wind is constantly changing the “ Footprints in the Sand ”. This piece tries to reflect those changes. This song started in BiaB with the “PianoMood1-reflective Soundtrac”, however I replayed all parts except the drums; the drums are from GrooveMonkee that I modified to better fit the song. I played guitar, bass and keyboard on this one. I know that this is not your typical song for this forum however I did want you to hear it because of how I used BiaB in this one. I did not use the verbatim backing tracks, as mentioned I replayed them and rewrote some of them. When I am stumped, writer’s block, I use BiaB in this manor. I put the chords in BiaB then had BiaB generate a number of melodies and solos via the melodist and soloist. From these I selected a number of short sections and used them as starting points for my leads. I find this a very inspiring. BiaB is not only excellent for backing tracks but it is also excellent for generating leads and ideas for leads. I hope you like this.

Mario,
Sounds good. To me it sounds like Dark Shadows meets the Monsters.

Hi Mario,
Your compositional talent always leaves me thinking, "Wow! This guy is good". This was no exception. The whole package - composition, arrangement, production - works wonderfully. It sounds like it should be in a movie (as so many of your pieces do). I've got to say, I'm extremely impressed that you played all those instruments so well.
All the best,
Noel

Very nice Mario, some good sounds there. We always called Am,G,F,E the "money making chord progression”, nice to see there's still mileage in it. I also don't necessarily use BIAB in the approved fashion, it helps me a lot with my impro- as I don’t have access to the right caliber of musicians to practice with. It’s also a great help with composition- being a guitarist, it’s hard to get all the elements into a recognizable form. Well done.
