Leon, I am a big fan of sci-fi and fantasy myself. A subterranean journey, and interesting idea!

Like a soundtrack from "AVATAR" the movie.

Creating a sensation of floating above a beautiful landscape.

Wow Mario what a cool song. This song just filled my studio with music. Lots of texture and emotions. Cymbals were a really nice touch.

Wow. Absolutely and genuinely superb. How do you do it? Where on Earth did you get the idea from? haha. Loved it - after the first few notes, I was indeed worried about nightmares, haha ... but this actually proved VERY relaxing. You have the Midas touch when it comes to music ...

Thanx Scott. Thanx for noticing the cymbals. It took me quite awhile to get them to A)fit the song and B)to sound right.

A great illustration of the versatility of BiaB resulted in quite
the cinematic production. Somebody mentioned it and, yes,
for us sci-fi came to mind. Like something we'd hope to
hear in the upcoming new Dune film.

Excellent!

Mario, there’s no doubt that this is very cinematic and perfect for a movie. Dark, scary and a bit strange. You have a great ability to compose these pieces that would work well on TV or the big screen. Nice one,Tom

I see an apocalyptic landscape or a labrynth here.
Great atmosphere, Mario.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe

This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
