To clarify, I see waveforms for the bass, drums, and piano. Just no waveform for the guitar part. Also, the Style is _Mumble2.

Hi Andi and Deej! This has ‘classic rock ballad’ written all over it! My favourite section is where the band Roos back, the cello(?) supports, then the band re-enters. Good stuff. Well done to all involved. Andrew PS I love Deej’s falsetto parts.

Good one, Dan! I like the pared back section that then builds back up with ‘… carried me’. I hope one day we will hear you sing - or did you? Great lyrics that deserve to be sung by the writer. BTW thanks for the context of what you and your wife have been going through - sounds like you’ve very faithful. Andrew

I got ‘lost in the sauce’ (aka drifting off) of this one, Chay, which is a good thing. So relaxing, and love the use of bossa. Good one. Also in admiration of your graphics work - interesting wall and window in one scene. Andrew

Hi Rob! That’s a real toe-tapper! I don’t think I’ve heard you mention how you learned to play - at least not on the time I’ve been on the forum. ‘The Harpbreak Kid’ … makes me wonder if you’ve broken a few harps in your time … Anyway, fantastic playing and illustrating western swing! Andrew

My only criticism of this is that it's way too short! Great song and use of BiaB samples.. Amazing mix and production. Really, really enjoyed the listen. Haha usually I get accused of making songs too long. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the very kind words!

Something special here. Good write. One of your most melodic melodies. Nicely sung. Smooth bass. Dave's leads are some of his best. Also very melodic (commercial in the best sense) The cello was a good choice. Excellent listening. fj

Joyful journey and a lovely landscape. The arrangement is lush and exciting, each instrument is like a living creature. Enjoyed the beauty of the lead voice and the violin that seems to speak in magical language. Thanks for another epic visit to colorful Marioland. Janne Thanx Janne for this wonder review.

Thanks lingyai for your detailed comments. I'm not a sound ingenior and that part of the work doesn't interest me very much. I prefer to spend py time writing lyrics, composing melodies, finding chords and making arrangements. Everyone has their own preferences!

Black Widow We’re working on an album release of our slow burn blues tunes … aptly named Burning Slow. 😀 Black Widow was first released 8 years ago and this is a re-mix with all new effects and mastering. Now that's my kinda blues right there!! Love the groove! Vocals, lyrics and guitar work are excellent! Looking forward to hearing more from the album!

Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
