This new version of the "Deya Flows" chord structure is totally different to the previous variations, plus it's 50% shorter at 4:15, and I trust will make the listener want to dance … and care … and heck, love, too. As this is a music video I've this time only used one new Deya-themed image.

I can't post the YouTube link as I keep on getting that the owner, me, has prevented sharing, which I haven't as it viewable on other sites!

Can anyone help? I checked on FB and the YouTube video is viewable on 2 pages there. So I next logged-in to YT and there's nothing saying that the video can't be shared, but there is one major anomaly: when I go to the Details of any video I can't edit anything, which I've always been able to do. It might just be a YT glitch, or I may have a hacker. I'll post the link here to see what happens: IT IS VIEWABLE IF YOU CLICK ON THE VIDEO![size:17pt][/size]

Cool island feel, Chay. Love the changes, and, man, you packed a great bunch of instruments in there. I can't help upi out with a name for the second soloist; I can olny say it fit so well. Lovely all around.
Enjoy whatever happens! marty

Love the energy you built and sustained throughout. Not easy to do with the long solos. I'd suggest trying the ending with a C chord rather than an F, since that would match the tension-resolution used throughout the song and be more pleasing for the listener. Might just be me though. Great work!

Thanks for the response, DC Ron. That final bar is actually F to C.

That is a mashup of seemingly disparate genre tracks but it works well ... very well. And the number of tracks? Way above my mix pay grade However you managed to give them the open/airy vibe we like. Not dense and good dynamics.
Well done!

Great groove! Great mix, I'll bet that took a long time. I really like the instrumentation. At first glance one would think how is this going to work! But you did a splendid job on that! It reminded me of my cruise to the Caribbean; thanx for the flashback. I really liked this version.
I arrived early to a restaurant. The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?" I said no. "Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

Thanks Mario! Everything I do in BiaB takes time, but particuarly when I try out different versions of a composition. In past decades I'd have never written a song in which I couldn't hit hit the notes, so BiaB opened up composing for me, and as I can't sing where I live due to neighbours even older than myself I've really gotten into instrumentals and using chord sequences which if they had lyrics I couldn't sing. What I've discovered this year is that the intial chord structure is all important as without good sequences the BiaB samples added just don't hit the mark. I've had to give up on a recent one as it just wasn't working and there's been a couple which were delayed by weeks as there was just one chord in the flow which didn't sound right, even though theoretically it should have. I've been surpised that on the forum I've had a few comments about the number of tracks, but back in the day 16 was almost a default, while now manufacutred pop has oodles. For me, BiaB is like painting with music!
