Well I've been using the bluegrass styles so much lately I figured I oughta dig deeper into the genre. So I wrote me a ditty and I must say had a lot of fun exploring approaches to instrumentation. Comments most welcome. https://soundcloud.com/matcham-caine/cockle-doodle-dandyStyle is _FIDRHYT.STY RealTracks in style: ~~427:Bass, Acoustic, Bluegrass Ev 130 RealTracks in song: ~432:Mandolin, Rhythm Bluegrass Ev 130 RealTracks in song: ~426:Banjo, Bluegrass Ev 130 (Rhythm) RealTracks in style: ~~428:Fiddle, Rhythm Bluegrass Ev 130 RealTracks in song: ~436:Mandolin, Soloist Bluegrass Ev 130 RealTracks in song: ~433:Banjo, Bluegrass Ev 130 (Soloist) RealDrums: RealDrums in Style: CountryTrain: a: Brushes Soft b: Brushes Hard Logic Pro X for the mix using Waves Manny Marroquin plugins and Ozone for the stereo output. Cockle Doodle Dandy Key: B Rooster on the henhouse, it can only fall (x3) Oh lord and he don’t crow no more Needle in the haystack, mama where you been?

Sounds good, Matcham.
Those BIAB Bluegrass RTs are hard to beat. Enjoyed the banjo solo, especially..

Matcham,
Great fun!
Your vocal has the right character for the style and the sound is rollicking.
I especially enjoyed the quirky lyrics.
Ozzy bluegrass is alive and well.

This is one toe tapping fun song.
Your voice and mix were spot on.
Great job on this!

Great fun song, Matcham. Like Floyd said, the Bluegrass RealTracks are very good, and the certainly sound good on this one.

Great job, Matcham. The vocals sound really nice and I dig the subtle background vox you added.

Nice and yep the bluegrass RT's are some of the best to work with as you always have a rhythm and a solo version of the particular instrument.
Enjoyed it!

Thanks again everyone. I agree that the bluegrass tracks are amongst the best in BIAB. Great musicianship and much potential to customise a whole band while having a whole lotta fun.

fj Matcham, I agree with floyd. The bluegrass RTs are tops. You've used them with flair. This is a very entertaining write and performance. As gibson said... "not to stop my feet tapping"... All the best, Noel
