This is a song I wrote that was influenced by a BIAB tune I heard. I don't remember which BIAB tune it was, I totally changed and recorded everything except the rhythm, that's what I really liked about it. https://youtu.be/0PszAS0xCL0

Hello, 'TVI'...
This is a 'jam' for sure! Smooth as silk melodically and harmonically. Uplifting vocals in tone and feeling. If you used BIAB Real Tracks in the production, I'm dyin' to know which ones you chose!

Hi, Todd. So that's what "writing under the influence" sounds like.  Smooth jazz, smooth vocals, smooth production. Very nice!

Thank you bluage, and no, all the tracks are my own, I rerecorded all the instruments to fit my chords, as well as to get the feel for what I was attempting to do. The rhythmic feel is what impressed me with the BIAB tracks and that is what I tried to keep.

That's what is great about BIAB, you can use as a "sketch pad" or full-blown production! Excellent job on the track! Love that jazzy/pop vibe in this! Thanks, Torrey

Allan Wow it's been a while since I've been here and I don't know what to say, thank you, all of you. I've produced many songs and pieces of music in my 60 year career, and this is one of my very favorite. I don't remember which BIAB song it was, but when I first heard the rhythm I new I wanted to create something with it. I'm producing another song right now unrelated to BIAB, but when I get done, I'm going to look for another BIAB song to create my next " Master Piece". I did end up bringing up the snare some and re-mixing & re-mastering it, if you get a chance check it out. https://youtu.be/YQIE5Lh0rKk
