Just a little ditty that JonD and I came up with.

BiaB style = Billy - Country Rock
I kept the drums and the strings and deleted every else.

I am playing the fretless bass and wind controller (flute) and JonD is playing the keys.


Falling Waters

Mario,

This is excellent - love the melody and mix. The flute / wind controller is very cool and perfect for this tune.

Loved it!

Nice work on this, you guys! I'm getting an almost Bob James vibe with this one at time. The name is also very true to the atmosphere the song gives off. It almost makes you feel like you are underwater listening to it. I love the gentle pulse it has, and the bass here is superb as well.

You did a great job here - thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

Beautiful melody and chord progression. Very nice arrangement with strings and piano. This has some musical feeling, but this could also fit in an indie movie.

Hello, Mario

Beautiful melody and chord progression.
Especially it is wonderful after the key changed to A major.
And I agree with Bob.
The flute / wind controller is very cool and perfect for this tune.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.
