https://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/hope-beyond-the-grave-1With Easter right around the corner, I wanted to post a song I wrote several years ago that was inspired by the reason for this special day. One of the first BIAB songs I posted was an early attempt at this song and I have tried to improve it here! I hope it puts someone in a good spirit and that someone feels it was worth the listen! Thanks, Torrey BIAB Drums-Funk 16ths Bass-1433 Jazz Funk Groovin Piano-2195 Electric Vintage CoolJazzPopHeld Electric Guitar-2818 GospelSoul8thsBrent Acoustic Guitar-2403 FunkyFolk Me Vocals Lead Guitar (Godin Nylon String) Rhythm Guitar Piano Organ

Torrey....
Liked it right away because it has a cool, inviting rhythm groove....moves along very well.
Vocals are well performed and the melody is very smooth and pleasing the aural receptors.
Good axe playing.
It's a good song....well done.
Carry on....

Torrey,
besides a great voice, excellent melodic invention and ace guitar skills you manage to combine BIAB seamlessly into something far greater than the RT parts.
The nylon string lead lines sound fantastic in this quite open and fresh arrangement.
Cheers

Torrey, I have hard time with commenting on spiritual songs, but will comment on musical part. You have done excellent job in creating this atmospheric composition.If I did not hear your previous tunes and did not read notes, I would never have guessed that it is done by one person  Every instrument has its own character and mood. Great playing and singing! Thank you for posting! Misha.

Torrey,
Once again I am listening to a song of yours and wondering why you are not famous and planning your next tour in Europe instead of sharing your wonderful music with us here (but I am glad that you do share...).
You have so much talent for composing, singing and arranging music - it is puzzling me why you haven't got the big break-through in the music world... you really deserve it!
This was another tour-de-force in tasteful arranged and performed music.
I - as always - really enjoyed listening to it!
Will

Torrey,
I agree with all that has been said by others...
A really nice groove that grabs from the start and continues throughout the song.
A good combination of instruments to make that happen. Nice use of the funk drums.
Excellent vocals. Nice mix.
Well done.

Nice work on this Torrey! The song has a tune of character and I love the groove on it. Very vibrant, and tons of charisma in both your vocals and the backing track. Nicely catchy too. I wouldn't bat an eyelash if I heard this on the radio. Thanks for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

Great groove going on.
Probably the computer I'm listening on but as some points the cymbals sound just ever so slightly harsh, which only jumped out at me because the rest of the arrangement and production is really smooth... None the less, I enjoyed listening.
It's only my madness that stops me from going insane.

Man!! Your music is always so good, but you have pushed the bar even higher with this one. Might be your best yet! Just outstanding in every way, loved everything about this. Quick production question about the Godin Nylon String if I may? Are you micing it or is it recorded direct? Sounds great

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."
