Here's a spooky little song about lost love... LOL! All BIAB/RTs.

We hope you enjoy it - thanks for listening.

Hey Bob and Josie,

This is very 'spooky' indeed! In the thread for my latest song, at 5:46 am, I hinted about your potential next song. Now at 6:56 am, it appears. Wow!!!

As I sit here listening, my first impression is that the overall production has a really professional sound to it. I also found myself entranced by the hook "Tonight the ghost will fly". It's such a good metaphor for a dying, and soon to be dead, relationship (at least that's how the words spun their surrealistic story to me).

It's not often that a song in minor keys comes along. When it does, it always grabs my attention. You've inspired me to try something in minor

Best wishes to you both!
Noel

Thank you Noel. We were going for a very surreal and a very indie vibe.
We always appreciate your thoughtful comments.

Your esp must've been working on the timing of the post.

Hey Guys,

I just started working on a song with a "minor" flavor so I'm relating from the get go on this one.

A very good job! I thought the bongo's really added to the flavor and worked well in the song.

Thanks. Yes, the "minor" feel was what we were looking for in this song. Look forward to hearing what you are working on.

I like that. Thanks for sharing. You definitely achieved the "indie vibe."
I'm a sucker for a minor key tune. Gotta wonder if we have something in our DNA that makes them sound sad, spooky and, even, sometimes sinister.

Typical Josie and Bob song ie EXCELLENT, your voices go well together.

Cole Porter sets the minor mood well in "Every time we say goodbye"...
"There's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor every time we say goodbye"

anyway gonna listen to YOUR song, again now

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

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.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

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."
