Hi, all ye good friends !:)) I happened to watch my brother´s daughter sing some dixieland with her band " The Dixie Six" over here at Storyville jazz club !:)) ....and when I came home after that session I just had to start working on a dixieland tune...... It was natural to write this tune to my new Novia as we were visiting this jazz club for the first time together so...... I have to add, that I don´t envy my tuba player on this one, you should have seen him "vermilion red" might describe the color........(LOL)!!!!! Here is: "I Want To Love You" http://app.box.com/s/mhlkitto0c22z1z8h2lzRecorded and mixed with Mixcraft 6, zoom H4n used as mic STYLE: DIXMCLS.STY Dixieland Med Clarinet solo (110 RS) Tuba: 1618 Tuba Dixieland fast sw 165 Piano: 1615 Piano Ac Rhytm Dixieland fast sw 165 Drums: Realdrums Dixieland 6 Hihat2 Feel RDCrstk Guitar: 1614 Guitar AC Rhytm Dixieland fast sw 165 Clarinet: 1621 Clarinet soloist Dixieland fast A-B sw 165 Strings: 49 Strings ....and the lyrics are: I WANT TO LOVE YOU (by Dani) © Dani Lindroos I wanna love you I wanna hold you close I love you so, don´t you know Each time you´re near me it feels like heaven here is where I wanna be, don´t you see In your arms all my troubles are gone I love it when you come so close, you turn me on darling, love me, it feels so fine this night is ours, come and let yourself be mine I wanna kiss you I wanna hug you, dear and hold you tight, thru the night Each time you´re near me the sun will shine and everything will be so fine, oh so fine In your arms all my troubles are gone I love it when you come so close, you turn me on darling, love me, it feels so fine this night is ours, come and let yourself be mine clarinet solo In your arms all my troubles are gone I love it when you come so close, you turn me on darling, love me, it feels so fine this night is ours, come and let yourself be mine Fade away ========= Happy Holidays to all of you with greetings from Spain (when I hopefully arrive there next monday) ! Cheers Dani

Always re-inventing yourself Dani!! When I saw the word "Novia" I was surprised. Then I saw that you're traveling to Spain and it made sense. What a charming, fun song. I think the arrangement and solo worked great. Nice vocal too! Another Dani classic!! Take care. Greg

He Dani,
This is just great! It's a terrific song. How can anyone not be happy after listening to Dixieland. It's such a buoyant style of music.
I hope that you and Novia have a wonderful Spanish holiday.
Best wishes for a terrific Christmas, Noel

Such a fun, uplifting song. Great vocals and a great write.
Oddly, I am currently working on a song with the same title. Don't be surprised when you see it pop up.

Dani,
when you first came to the forum your melancholy was very well disguised in a coat of grace, but every now and then the coat would slip and it was momentarily visible.
I like this new Dani who is in love again! Your happiness shines through in every aspect of your presence on the forum.. in your songs, in your kind and gracious interaction with others etc. It makes me happy that you are happy again.
Thank you for sharing it with us through your songs... its what music does better than any other kind of communication!
Once again, have a great holiday and a wonderful Christmas!

Very cool Dani! Growing up in the southeastern USA I've been at the least peripherally exposed to Dixieland Jazz all my life.
You made the progenitors proud!
Great production.

Amigo Daniel Dani... in my original post I said "COAT" (as in "garment") I would never refer to you as a GOAT! But what's interesting to me (and quite endearing) is the fact that you read it as GOAT, yet you replied very graciously. That says a lot about what kind of man you are.. and everything it says is exceptionally good and admirable! You focus on what is positive and don't waste time looking for reasons to be offended. If the whole world were more like you, there really would be PEACE ON EARTH. I value your friendship highly!

Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). 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).

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.

There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
