1st thought was Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie. the horns really are the traffic and the arrangement is the jam in this little doughnut. COOL.

Cool song Andrew - in some ways it could be XTC. I quite like the result of the three vocals but you could also comp a best vocals from the three and sue the originals to support it. That would depend on your DAW handiness I suppose. The mandolin really adds the special sauce.

Regarding the algs...a recent track I did had 10x as many plays as usual. it was YuTub recommending it for play through various means. Ads were attached and YT pumped it until it got close to the point where they'd have to pay me a share of the revenue and then they dropped the song. It happens all the time - cynical and misleading but it's how a "free" service stays free I suppose. Sweet little tune.

Izzy it's a very cool thing but your vocal, on the high/loud notes gets distorted and very nails on the chalk board. No one else seems to hear it so it's probably just my hears. I really enjoyed the wild, stormy, psych tilt and particularly the changes between bass RTs. ACE.

Of course w/o BiaB none of this would be happening. Hi Bud - I agree. I recently updated my song register with roughly when each song, whether completed or in part, was first written. This covers the period from when I was 16 through to now - I am 63. There was an explosion in my songwriting when two things occurred 1. I was collecting the chordsheets of famous songs 2. I purchased BIAB. I remember telling myself that I had song ideas trapped in my brain but couldn't find a way to bring them to life (to their fullness) until I had BIAB.

This gentle instrumental certainly conjures up childhood memories. I really liked the brief appearances of the cello, fiddle and guitar, though I would have liked to have heard more of them.

Great country boogie! Janice's vocals are 100% perfect for this song. And that multi-instrumentalist Bandhi guy can really play!  Love that instrumental break. Perfect mix, too.

Great build and that is one of the better uses of a RT organ that we have heard. Excellent mix ... nice soundstage on the Kalis. Enjoyed it! J&B Thanks for the listen and the feedback, J&B! I've only just looked up Kali speakers and it's the first time I've seen speakers sold individually and not in pairs. Even their cheapest aren't cheap! I've always used Bose despite having heard better, but while they're great for my headphones I've never been able to get an equalizer setting that makes the speakers themselves sound as I want them. I'm horribly aware that others listening to my posts hear them better quality than I do! By crikey, that's just not British!

Thanks LB for your feedback. Moreover, it's great that Andrew has been assisting you in the background also, it's very professional of him to provide that additional support. Definitely keep us in the 'loop'! Inquiring minds need to know

This is my favorite song I've heard on the forum over the past year. Extraordinary melody, lyric, and vocal. You have the genre listed as country, but it sounds more like a power pop ballad like a cross between the La's and the Smithereens. You have a hit song (at least in my world).

This is really fracking good song, B.D.! Absolutely on every level. I was only part way through the listen when I realised you must have put a heck of a lot of work into it and only later did I read your blurb about it. In this song and previous ones you have a magic knack - though it's through hard work as well as talent - of making AI vocals sound 100% real, when nearly everything else I hear sounds fake and instantly loses my interest. This song just sounds 100% professional, though you'll soon have stop using the "no fans" part of your YT blurb! Re the lyrics, I totally relate to and agree with them, though from a different perspective. In my early teens I began asking all of the 'big' questions - I wanted to know why there was life - and I was 19 when I first experienced the Divine--in-All and in the following 55 years- in which I've studied virtually all spiritual traditions, various psychological models and a lot more besides - I've had more profound spiritual experiences than all of the truly spiritual persons I've ever met put together. So I class myself as a lower case 'g' gnostic (a knower) and in 2007 when I first started using social media (the Yahoo 360° site and then Multiply and others before they all vanished - FB and others came years later - I created my own Way for me, Waoism, which I class as something not serious which I take seriously, and equally something very serious which I don't take seriously. It's what I call a "genuine and authorised Act of Controlled Folly"! In simple terms I define Waoism in my YT 'about', and a part of the Controlled Folly is that Waoism being my Way for me makes me equally the most evolved, mediocre and dumbest Waoist sage ever, as well as the best, most mediocre and dumbest student there is as there can never be another Waoist. I have 5 Waoist videos on YT which are only ever seen by a very few FB contacts, but I wouldn't want to post then here with BiaB music as the wordage and the images are more important than the soundtrack, plus I wouldn't want to offend anyone. But risking that, my Waoist Adage #59: is "Believing is the booby prize." Though not believing is just believing the opposite, thus Adage #85 is "Knowing that you don't know keeps you on the path of knowledge." I'll quote a quote from Ibn 'Arabi, a 14th Century Sufi who eventually refereed to himself as a gnostic, which I left on one of Beth's recent posts: "My heart has become capable of every form: it is a pasture for gazelles and a convent for Christian monks, and a temple for idols and the pilgrim's Ka'aba and the tables of the Tora and the book of the Qur'an. / I follow the religion of Love: whatever way Love's camels take, that is my religion and faith."

Thank you Noel...I think a pop up passed quickly mentioning something about changing the feel of the song to triplets, but that ship has sailed. I will play around and try to replicate it to see if I can get to something that sounds anywhere close to the original song.

Tom, lovely tune! Super backing band and very effective vocal delivery. Like your vocal FX chain here again. On the chorus there's a slight amount of vocal distortion that sounds like clipping. Probably addressable if you choose to. Super tune either way! Baseball is my favorite sport. I can watch it all day long. Doesn't matter if it's MLB or T-ballers...

Those flute pieces you assemble turned into a nice selection. The synth voices, although sounding good, sound too complicated for me. If I start losing my voice, I'll just pay someone on Fivver. Cool song. Original sound that had me glued to your song. The end kind of clips out, which sounds off. Maybe fade out the room ambience at the end instead of the abruptness.

< My fantasy goal is to simply see (NOT hear) the bass notes I want as a visual guide for me playing along with the recorded stem bass part muted. This would complete my fantasy bass song practice file which would show: > An audio file (actually, any media BIAB recognizes ) converted into an Artist Performance File can have transcription allowing you to see notation, tab, or the midi data in Piano Roll or the Guitar Fretboard which can also display the Bass fretboard. It's my opinion that: < -Accurate chord chart of a commercially recorded song with the measures moving along as the song plays -The recorded song split onto stems. -The bass stem muted so I can play along outside of BIAB -And then per my question, see the desired notation of notes for the bass part that I can refer to in real time as the chord chart progresses (so if I forget a bass note, I can see it in the notation) > is possible using the Stem Splitter, ACW, Artist Performance File feature, and BIAB.

I tryed the inport function from BIAB on my PC. The zip fill function worked very wll and quickly transfer 6 songs. The results were mixed - all of the songs played - 4 were close to desktop version others had various issues addition of solo meodist - mixer and tempo buttons did not work for any - when i change style still cant edit with controls. What should we expect from import ? What does m4a ready mean ? What is the purpose of each section in Play Gen +? I'm a little confused, so could you clarify something please? You mentioned 'PC', and 'Import From Desktop'. Is this BIAB on a Windows PC or BIAB iOS (Apple)? Are you importing material from your iOS device to a Windows PC, or something else? M4A is an abbreviation of "MPEG-4 Audio" and is essentially an MPEG4 without including video information.

does D in B.D. mean dark ... or death I love the contrast when a female with an angel like voice sings less angelic story. ABBA of the underworld, maybe!? "Maybe I was born to break/Maybe I was born to lose" - I'm not sure whether this a positive solution to the problem the lead character finds, but it sounds kind of liberating Thanks for the explanations, they revealed some aspects of what I didn't expect to hear The instrumentation works spectacularly well, creating haunting feel with those high synth voices and the acoustic guitar. And the reverb level is spot on. Love the vocalist, really beautiful singing, although I really wish she would get professional help  Janne Fun fact: I almost formed a band called Brain-Dead Thomas years ago. But I thought the name sounded a bit uninviting  ABBA of the underworld? I'll gladly take that Thank you very much for your nice comment, Janne.
