Hello biab members,

Today I am submitting a soundtrack with a 180 bpm. The main instruments on the melody track are the marimba, the vibraphone and the celeste which plays the same melody and which gives this particular sound. The piano reinforces the sound in a few passages. I imported the midi file of the melody into Biab to find the chords he suggested to me.
For the accompaniment, few realtracks with this tempo were suitable.
I therefore used the midi strings files from biab that I adjusted in my daw by replacing the sound with vst trumpets, brass and strings. For the drum, I took the midi file from a biab loop drum and assigned it a vst from “Eastwest Mor”. For the bass I started with a biab midi file that I improved according to the melody (vst “ Mor”). I finally added some Bells and trills (intro and outro) for the coloring of the song. It's an ambient soundtrack whose title is "happy days".

If you have the time to comment, thank you in advance for your advices.

Beautiful composition and perfect for the season.

As others have and will mention it is very cinematic in nature and it
is easy to imagine the tune in a film.

Well produced and it sounds excellent on our monitors.

Enjoyed it!

Just an awesome listen. Very cool song. What a lavish soundscape. Filled the room with beautiful music. Well done

Yep.... I agree. I could hear this playing as underscore in a film.

Nice

Excellent! Definitely your best so far (of the music I have heard anyway).

Lovely composition, production, and mix.

Well done!

This definitely has that film score quality. And it is a quality production from start to finish. A very enjoyable listen with some holiday sounds as was mentioned. Very nicely done, Tom

Hi Blue Attitude,

It's an honor to see you commenting on my last song. I apologize for the delay in responding. I'm glad you like my last soundtrack. Especially since the Bpm 180 did not allow me to integrate Biab realtracks and that I had to use midi tracks in order to be able to insert them. Thanks to you. My best wishes for happiness and health for the new year. Take care of yourself.

Kindly regards

Hi Westside Steve,

I put you in the following on soundcloud. I appreciate your music. I apologize for the delay in responding. It is true that this soundtrack is a little different from my other soundtracks. Thank you for your comment. My best wishes for the new year.

Hi Tommyad,

It is true that I always make instrumental soundtracks oriented towards film music. And I thank you for your nice comment. I have some poems that could lend themselves to song. Maybe I'll give it a try in the next few months because I really appreciate the compositions sung on this platform. Thanks again

My best wishes for happiness and health for the new year. I think I'm a little late in listening to your songs and I'm going to go listen to them.

Kindly regards

Very cool opening!
Marimba and vibraphone are magical and in my opinion highly underappreciated instruments, you made pretty good use of them. Cool, fast pace quest like composition. Very fun bass going on. Liked it. Thank you for sharing!

Misha.

A fantastic example of using BIAB midi.
Posted By: Derochette Re: The happy days - 01/01/21 05:11 PM
Hello Misha,

A big thank you for your comment. These magical instruments in their sounds are often forgotten and deserve to be reintroduced as you say very well. A very big thank you to you.

Kindly regards.
Good new year and Take good care of yourself.
