Hi all,
Here's a french song between old jazz and gypsy swing.
My friend Christian Braut is the singer.
Lyrics are about universality of music. Each one can travel and be enriched with so different styles...

Hi Chris,

I'm a real sucker for a bit of Gypsy Jazz your song is excellent.

I enjoyed the whole song and the mix was very good.

Hi Chris & Christian ...

What a great song. I love Gypsy Jazz - I've written several song in the genre. The stops establish a nice pace. That clarinet is super!

Everything about the song is exquisite. I totally loved it! Best to both of you .

Chris, this is an outstanding song. Everything is mixed to perfection. Great clarinet and mandolin solos. The vocal is perfect.

Loved it.


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.

Hello Chris,

An old-style jazz chanson reminiscent of Charles Aznavour's "Pour faire une jam".
The vocal is a little more reminiscent of new French singers.
I love French chansons, so I like these songs unconditionally.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Chris,

haven't been listening to that kind of music for a very long time, but this one really encouraged me to do it every now and then.

Really nice in all aspects.

Cheers,

Stefan

Christian,

What a great piece! Really captures a gypsy jazz Django feel. My best mate is a big fan of gypsy jazz . . . I will definitely play this one for him—he’s going to love it. Your vocalist does a terrific job as well; sits perfectly in the mix and jives well with the mood. And that solo clarinet just slays. Outstanding!

All my best to you,

Deej

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."
