https://soundcloud.com/user-294987337/le-baron-du-funk

It's a song in 2 parts: 1 part Disco Funk with vocals and brass. 2nd part Pop Fusion ballad with a real vocal track, guitar solo. Lots of sounds coming from synthmaster 1 and 2.
Lyrics in English:
The Baron of Funk
With her gloved hands and her golden necklaces
No one can ignore him because he is at the top
The Baron of Funk Drives in a Cadillac
He's successful, he's at every party
No Rap or Rock Even less Pop
Don't talk about Punk, there's only Funk
The Baron of Funk It's a Hit machine
He shouts I feel good His riffs are powder

Laurent,

Great song and great arrangement. Love the transition to the ballad. Really nice use of Synthmaster - great mix!

Excellent...

Laurent, this is a fun song! Love all the sonic activity that kept the arrangement moving along, especially the clav in the 1st half. What was the guitar solo in the 2nd half? Don't see one credited, but thought that worked very well. Enjoyed the listen!

Laurent, Super groove!
Great instrumentation.
Nice dynamics and groove change - brilliant.
The only thing that I found not up to stuff was the vocal. IMHO that was effects overkill on the vocal such that it was extremely hard to understand the lyrics. Note that is just my opinion and others may or may not agree. YMMV


I just posted a selfie and all of the responses were get well soon!

Hi Laurent,

What a really cool song! You used Synthmaster very effectively. And the transition from driving funk to powerful ballad was excellently handled. Everything about this isd terrific! I enjoyed it very much!

Take care,

Alan

Thanks Mario for the comments. For the singing I am not satisfied but I tried to do the best.
My voice is dubbed with a vocoder and echo which distorts understanding.

Very creative indeed. A funkier than funk part A and a smoother than smooth ballad part B.
Well done.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Wow!

Really excellent use of BiaB and a very different and cool arrangement.

As others have mentioned to groove change was very engaging.

Kudos! Well done.

Hi, Laurent.

I was going to say "cool arrangement", but J&B beat me to it...

But I'll say it anyway: cool arrangement. Lots of ear candy. smile

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

This sounds really great Laurent.

What kind of guitar and effects are you using in part 2??

It sounds really good.

Ah, there was once a Godfather of Soul and now enter The Baron du Funk. Crazy good feel. Man, you pack this with a lot of music. How crazy was it to mix? Came out crazy good, but the singers are not my favorite part until the baroness started around 2:50. I also like the change there. Laurent, some serious guitar in there. Now THAT's my favorite part. I see everyone else is awed by that second solo, too. Outstanding stuff.


Enjoy whatever happens!

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.
