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.

It's called the Heineken Maneuver.
