Hi all,

Due to my spine problems you haven't heard anything new by me for several weeks. But I'm almost fit again.
This is the first time I didn't miss the deadline of a remix contest. This one closes on Sun 29 Jun 2014.
The song is by Danny Darko feat. Lulu Falemara.
Here is the original:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63ctTRI0gpY&feature=player_embedded

I tried a totally different style.
RTs used:
RealDrums-BluesRockShuffle^2-HHt,Ride
RT1583_ Bass, Electric, TexasBluesRockShuffle Sw
RT1584_ Guitar, Electric, Rhythm TexasBluesRockSh
RT1585_ Guitar, Electric, Rhythm TexasBluesRockS
RT1588_ Guitar, Electric, Soloist TexasBluesRoc

And here is my remix:

I hope you enjoy.
Guenter

Guenter, I've just listened to the original and followed with listening to your version. You did a good job matching the original vocals into your music. Very ambitious attempt and I wish you best of luck in the contest.

Guenter,

Man! You've got that thang rockin'!!!!

You made me want to write something just so I could use those tracks. I don't think there could be a better compliment.... I want to copy what you did....and I'm not ashamed to admit that wink

I'm pressed for time, so I don't have time to listen to the others - but I want to... so I'll be back...

Excellent mix. Of course. Glad you are getting back in the saddle...

Ummmm. Wow. You nailed it with that urgent driving backing track. I had a flashback to Demolition Man by The Police. Very good work - Patrick

Ha, ha -- you sure took the backing in a whole 'nother direction! Very creative. I would even know how to start a project like that. You are quite the composer and arranger. Well done.

Very cool!! I really know nothing about the art of re-mixes but you totally changed the feel, and I like your version better! Really enjoyed the listen. Take care. Greg

PS Hope your back is doing better. I'm a physical therapist so I deal with back pain every day (sometimes my own as well).

Hi Charly, Dani, Floyd, Patrick, Kevin, Alan, Greg, Richard and Josie,

thank you all for listening and your nice comments.
And thanks for the wishes regarding my health.

@Floyd: Just go ahead. I suppose you paid for the tracks as I did. I'm looking forward to the results.

Hello Guenter,

That's a very nice remix.
We understand this is for a contest.
Did you choose this song yourself or was it chosen for you?

Regards,
R & AM

Guenter, Those are two totally different takes on the same song. I have to admit I like them both. Your version really rocks. You certainly seem to be able to find a vision and follow it through with amazing results. Good luck in the contest. Tom

Hi Rob and Anne-Marie,

thanks.
I chose it myself. I wouldn't work with it
if I didn't like it.

You did an awesome job mixing that rocking solo guitar with her vocal! Very clever adaptation of the original.

Guenter, a piece of advice for your back is try to get in the water and spend as much time there as possible. Walking in chest deep water is great for your back, or swimming if you're comfortable in the water (that's the thing that helps me most when my back is acting up). Even a Jacuzzi or deep bathtub is helpful. Icing is also a great help. Good luck, and let me know if you have any questions. Take care. Greg

Hi Greg,

thanks for your advice.
It's a pity that I'm too lazy to do
all that would be good for me.

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."
