Serenity Island Serenity Island, just lay back and let your mind wonder. Mine is wondering when I'm going to get up and get a beer  BiaB style = Doves - Straight 8ths Arps South Tempo = 60 BPM Bass - Ample bass - preset upright Piano - EZ Keys - Dream Machine - preset Mellow MKVII Guitar - Kontakt - Fingerpicking - preset Nylon string Strings - EastWest Play - Symphonic Choirs - preset full choir Drums - various Steven Slate SSD5 drums Percussion - Kontakt - Brio Ensemble I am playing the flute via my wind controller and the solo violin via my keyboard controller The strings I copied, and pasted then modified and wrote some parts. FX- Raum reverb on all but the upright bass and kick drum All drum tracks had Waves CLA drums
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Mario...a very "peaceful piece" of music if I might say...I always appreciate your instrumentals...love the strings in the mid section and the violin part is super...the wind flute always amazes me...seems like it ends abruptly...does the BiaB style have a preset ending?

Ooo, you're right --close your eyes and wonder. Serenity Island is not of this Earth; it is a pleasant space in the mind. It's too early for a beer, so I was wondering when I'm going to get up for a coffee. This Serenity Island that you've created for us, Mario, is also a wonderful place to wander. You are such a master at writing and performing these varied and creative pieces you compose.

Hi Mario,
At this moment it's lovely weather here in the Netherlands.
I will go out, enjoy the sunshine and have this beautiful music in mind.
What could I need more?

That's ok Mario! Steven Wright said that his mind wandered all the way to Venus one time and ordered a meal he couldn't pay for This track is beautiful thing that just carries the listener off to wonderful place! Love the instrument choices! I always enjoy your work! Thanks, Torrey

You control those controllers most excellently!
A gentle flowing and clear creek ... all the way. Lovely.
The performance effort, arrangement effort and mix efforts you put in are obvious and the outcome is spectacular.
A great piece for the sync libraries - very cinematic.
Enjoyed it!

This is very nice Mario. Great job of picking the instruments and then arranging them perfectly. Excellent sound and very well put together.

A gentle rolling stream of music--soothing and tranquil.
The flute part is lovely.
I was looking to get one of those wind controllers, but the surging inflation sucked the money right out of my wallet.

Cool vibe Mario. Loved how the wind controller just floated above the backtrack. The violins were a really nice add. The song just opened up and widened. Panning and instrument placement gave the song a really big sound. Well done.
