Hi, friends !

This maybe one of my last
surf tunes depending on
how my voice will allow.
I could not have done this
without the Daniettes (i.e.
the Voice Aahs of BIAB and
naturally without the
splendid Box Band backing
up it all ! I only had my
celebration semi-acoustic
for solos so I chose to sing
the chorus part instead !

The style used is HAYSTAX.STY (Country Boogie)
and the instros within are:
Bass: 1845, Piano: 1854, Drums RD:s Southern Fast 12-8 Soul
Guitar 1: 953, Guitar 2: 956
and Daniettes being Vocal AAhs 3063

Recorded with mixcraft 8 pro - reverb and compressor used

Here are the links:

.....and here are the lyrics:

SURFERS FATE (Music and Lyrics by Norman Wibe)


Weather´s just fine for surfin´along today
so will you pack your things once again, my dear
my little darlin´we´ll have to go
for we don´t know for how long it will show
but if we leave now, we´ll be back by five , I swear
surfin´away

Can you feel how excitement grows the closer we get
to the surf and the waves that is somethin´I´ll never forget

We´ve been doin´this thing so many times before
glidin´like magic over the ocean´s floor
love the moment to be towed out to sea
and to ride the waves don´t you see
an addiction, leavin´ you always wantin´more
and to adore !

Can you feel how excitement grows the closer we get
to the surf and the waves that is somethin´I´ll never forget
or a solo

Hurry, darlin´ vamonos now ! ´cause it´s gettin´late !
weather´s fine and the surf seems to me there to rise so great
let´s go fast, thats the right thing to do
I need you darlin´,we´ll have to be two
You know this is what we both could be callin´”surfer´s fate”
surfer´s fate
surfer´s fate


Cheers
Dani

Well done dani48! I really enjoyed the overall chord progression. Great work on the guitars and rhythm too. Reminds me a little bit of The Beach Boys. Thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Joe

Hi, Joe !:))

Thank you so much for
your most kind words !
The papaummmawmaw is Beach
Boys which was intended too.
Though I love their music
I am not even close to
sound like them - Brian
Wilson knew what he was doing
and I just wanted to have some
fun, which it has been producing
these small BB:ish tunes.
Unfortunately I think I have
to move to other genrés but
in that case I´m gonna miss
those sounds!:)))

Cheers
Dani

Hi Dani,

You really captured the essence of surfing music with this one! Definite similarity to The Beach Boys and Jan & Dean. Great harmonies and lead vocal. Loved the key modulation. What a great listen! Best to you, my friend.

That was fun! It certainly caught the flavor of those classic surf songs, and put a smile on my face. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Dani,

There's no-one on the forum who does the classic surf sound as effectively as you do. I love the bass vocals in the opening! You certainly have a wonderful range of notes that you can bring to a production.

As always, I enjoyed travelling along with your music. I'm always entertained when I listen to your work.

All the best,
Noel

You are still hanging 10 Dani!

Another great surf song. Flashback to the mid to late 60's when I was listening to Jan and Dean, The Beach Boys etc.

Excellent vocal and mix.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
