Your right: audio version in SoundCloud sounds better. That is why I don't publish my music in social media platforms that except only mp3 or mp4 and not full quality wav-format. But to your music: a beautiful piece.

Nice! Remained of the power pop of the end of the 1980s. Good vocals and production.

Thanks, Mario. Your song would fit as a music score to some nature documentary.: Closing eyes I can see the nature awaking in spring time. As you descripted. A good dynamics with that heavy rain part. Beautiful production.

Some of it looks like mac OS 8 — especially the Style Picker.. For the most part, I'm liking the 2026 GUI and welcome the changes but, no, it doesn't look "new" to me.

VERY nicely done, B.D.! Cool tune, and the vocals are quite nice and a very convincing stand in for the way contemporary human vocals are processed these days in popular music. Reggae was a nice choice and, yes, it always makes ME feel happy, too. And so did your song. Perfect arrangement and mix. Lots of dynamic range but lots of space, too. Am POSITIVE Mrs Thomas will L-O-V-E it. Not that I wouldn't enjoy seeing you busking. That would be cool.

Vic, Thanks for the kind words. We both appreciate it. Elyse had a very particular way of ending certain passages with a note that was slightly turned-up. That intro riff was meant to somewhat emulate her vocal style - that's why you hear that bent note at the end of the guitar phrase. Bob

Since I own a ton of NI products, I'm happy that this is a company with a long-standing tradition in the music industry, and not just some investor who treats companies as mere commodities. I'm, to put it mildly, relieved.

Hi Dan, Based on the showcase forum I know that I am in the minority of users but when something MIDI is good I like to post it just in case someone could use it. " Fact is I don't much carefore these Synths. The sound is too synthetic and not organic - does that make sense?" Yes, that makes a lot of sense. The original analog synths were not emulations; they were created to add new sounds, many of them were really raw sounds. They later morphed into emulations. I have been a fan of analog synths since day 1. I have a lot of albums from that era. I am happy that I can now mess with "analog synths" within my computer. Unity 2 looks very powerful; I watched the video. I'm going to do more research on it and see if I would like it or not. From the video there was a lot of stuff that I now can do in my DAW. Thanx for posting that info. I am more of a sound user than a sound creator or manipulator. However on occasion I have been know to mess around with a sound.

From the lyrics, I gather that it's a protest song, but unlike mine, yours make me smile. Strange... No matter what you do, you can't hide your positive nature, Marty. Love the piano and your vocals, and there are some sexy bass lines. Enjoyed my listens

In Ye Olden Times you could check out videos and figure out parts by watching the player. What I learned from that video was that in order to play fast mandolin licks, I need to move my fingers in slow motion. On the other hand, the dead-eyed zombie on the drums did a pretty good job staying in sync. But when ride hits, the splash cymbal magically moves as well - just like in real life? I can accept having synth voices singing songs - because without that, you've just words on paper. But watching AI people "play" the music is where my brain draws the line. It's a step completely removed from reality: the images that you're looking at literally have no relation to the sounds you're hearing. Are you trying to convince your viewer that there's a real band there? With the ability to create videos of virtually anything, it seems that having a locked-down camera of a fake band is the epitome of ick. But I'm an old luddite, so what do I know? Yeah… I found the video unwatchable for that reason. Don’t need to be a Luddite to know crap when you are looking at it. I totally agree.

Hi Floyd! Mandolin and bossa is a delightfully pleasing combination you’ve used. I reckon the mandolin is a much underused instrument outside of bluegrass, and yours is no exception. I love the interplay between the mandolin and and your lead guitar towards the end of the piece. A song that has novel but critical use of a mandolin is Chris Cornell’s (ex Soundgarden) Nearly forgot my broken heart A few years ago, I bought myself a Fender A-style mandolin with built in pickup - it’s action was set much higher than I could use and felt like fingering granite - so like you, I sanded back the base of the nut and lowered the bridge so get the action height I could play. But I digress. Love this piece Floyd! Andrew Thanks, Andrew... Very cool, Floyd. Nice playing on the little guy! Your lines are very clean and fluid--not so easy for a beginner on that TINY fretboard! You're quite gifted for sure. The transition to the electric guitar works really well, and I love the gnarlier tone that you've dialed in. BiaB does nice tracks in this genre, and you've put together a very pleasurable backing track. Have never equated Bossa = Floyd previously, but that's changed completely now of course. Excellent stuff! My own mandolin journey didn't end nearly as musically. Appreciate that, Ron...

Sorry, let me try this again. This is actually not a simple concept. I think the best example of what Rusty is going for is to look at what EZKeys does. In the early days I had no idea about how melodic / phrase based MIDI worked. EZKeys libraries contain many individual melodic phrases which it applys to any chords you choose. But you can also provide you own midi phrases (i.e., 3rd party phrases). With a simple single multi bar melodic pharse (emotion, feel, chords, timing, vibe etc.) you can construct an entire musical arrangement with your own chords. It is actually pretty amazing. It takes any single simple phrase and produces a full arrangement (using any chords and any key), "in the style of" that single simple phrase. I did a video on this several years back. The point here is, BIAB does not do this! So Rusty , did I get this right??  Or am I also missing your point.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1u7wgRsJC3Ewe_G71hwcUlupOuLQosCHr/view?usp=sharing

Oh, what a wonderful winner you have with this gem, Laurent. You're right about the Ai "liberty," but it's still a great tour of that most wonderful city of lights. An incredible write and production. Outstandin on so many levels. Loved it. Thanks Marty, I mainly use Suno as a genius arranger with a base created in BIAB. For me, it's the best compromise. Laurent
