Caesar Has No Shirt! This song is about..., well, I've changed the name, because his name is not worth mentioning, but you might guess... Melodically not interesting, but dance pop usually is quite repetitious. I wanted to showcase that BIAB is an excellent tool to create arrangement also in that genre. The bridge melody is based on a work by a 19th century composer, can you recognize it? I had the original backing track mixed in Adobe Audition years ago, and now when I tried to add latest plugins, it started to crawl. Hopefully the mix sounds decent enough. RealDrums: ModernDancePop RealTracks: #604 Electric Bass #1738 Synth Bass #658 Electric guitar #641, #642 Electric guitar Thrash #1746 Synth Chords #1750 Synth RaveSync #1933 Synth StackedHits #428 Fiddle #2023 Acoustic Piano Mixed in Adobe Audition 2022 Vocals: Synthesizer V Kevin & Solaria Lyrics: Caesar has no shirt riding on a horse everybody knows it's not a tour de force. Face-lift of the worst kind how could he think it's cool? The reins of racing Teslas are laughing at the fool. Caesar Caesar without a shirt Too often without a shirt Caesar has no shirt a shriveled spud Caesar has no shirt a sour Scud Caesar has no shirt pitiful in the coldest blood. Caesar has no shirt posing with a fish everybody sees two carp breams on a dish. He looks like really needy he should have eaten more quite sure his low blood sugar has made him start a war. Caesar Caesar without a shirt... Caesar has no shirt a rifle in his hand we see a psychopath from the hinterland. He dreams to be The Great we will know him as The Small his fathers built his realm he's the father of its fall. Caesar Caesar without a shirt... --------------- Janne

A fun song! The topic...not so funny... Anyway, what immediately piqued my interest was Solaria! Only to find that she was doing the backing vocs  I think she's the greatest synth voice to date. May I request a power ballad featuring her on the lead vocal and Kevin as the backing vocal? Rob

Hi Janne.
This is satirical pop if there is such a genre. There is now though.
Cleverly put together.

Janne,
I couldn’t help but click on a tune called “Caesar Has No Shirt” . . . I was not disappointed. From a production standpoint . . . MAN, you’ve done an incredible job using the vocaloids. I’d be hard pressed to discern a difference from a “live” vocalist. Great mix and feel. Killer dance pop number (and love that guitar solo around 2:30).
All my best,
Deej

this is a very unique song.
i gotta check out those synth vocals.
solaria ?
nice use of biab.
i really like the 'paceing' of the song.
sorry if you disagree but i feel this a very good 'party song'.
well done and catchy. lots of clever thinking you put into this imho.
happiness.
om

Excellent job, brilliant jab. The shirtless Caesar reminds me of that classic tale by Hans Christian Anderson.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

Rob Thanks Rob for your nice comment I fully agree, Solaria is definitely the greatest synth voice at the moment. But Kevin is also very good and the latest updates make them even more real sounding. Hmm I'm currently working on a new ballad, I think I might use Solaria as the lead vocalist, thanks for the request Janne

Wow, Janne! I'm in. What a cool song. You're right, BiaB has so many choices and you made some excellent ones with this. The lyrics are so good. I'd like to hear what the synths would have thought about them. hehe Is it easy working with them? I definitely need a replacement for my songs. I tried and tried, but couldn't get the 191th Century composer. I'm better with the 17th. Anyway, back to this song. I really enjoy your mind and how it spills over your creative craft.

"we see a psychopath from the hinterland" . . . brilliant lyric and overall great job !
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows 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.

This would be a perfect song for a Mel Brooks satirical movie. I kept picturing him and Harvey Korman doing scenes. Kevin and Solaria sound good together again. “He dreams to be The Great we will know him as The Small” We couldn’t agree more. Very creative! Outstanding work with the synths. J&B PS Thanks for not mentioning his name!

Brilliant song. Not my style, I must say; but that only goes to show how good it is, in that it pulled me in and I listened, entranced, despite any stylistic differences. The synth works perfectly, too - great harmonies :-)
Who's the 19th century composer? You've got me stumped, haha.
Well done.
