This is a R&B Bluesy Christian song of mine from 2009. It was one of the first songs I wrote with BIAB. We didn't have horns then so I remixed it adding some horns and added some harmony to the original vocal with the BIABettes. Also I used Reaverb (convolution reverb) which was a new experience and remixed it in Reaper. RT's are: Drums Nashville Pop 16 B3 Organ 425 Bass 521 Soloist Guitar Blues BB 576 Rhythm Guitar Elec Blues BB 573 Rhythm Guitar Blues Roadhouse 581 Horn Section R&B 2114 Link and lyrics below. Thank you for listening and your thoughts are appreciated. He's Faithful ©2009 Josie Beck When the light goes dark and problems swirl around We hope against hope for some kind of easy way out Cryin' Father oh have you forgotten me But He never fails to show me Chorus: Wohoh God is not a man that He should lie no no I'm learning now to trust Him with my life yeah yeah His word is solid rock He's gonna do what He said He will He's faithful faithful I confess there were moments I wasn't sure When people let me down and feelin' insecure Cryin' Father oh help my unbelief But He never fails to show me Bridge: On Christ the solid rock I stand All other ground is sinking sand Josie

Hi Josie,
Very nice! A steady and professional sound.
I also very much like the vocal harmonies.
Is the convolution reverb a vst (compatible with cubase)?
Regards,
Rob

Bull's eye!!! This song really hits on all cylinders! The arrangement is right in the pocket. The music and lyrics marry perfectly. The only thing I would change (just an opinion) is I would eq the vocal with more bite, and run it through a bigger reverb, maybe gated or at least with some slap back/echo on it. Really inspiring and spirited song!! Killer!! Take care. Greg

Thank you Rob. I appreciate that very much.
I tried Googling but didn't see anything that said Reaverb was compatible with Cubase so I'm assuming it's not. It's one of the two reverbs that comes with Reaper. If you should ever want to try Reaper it's fully functional to try for free.
Josie

Cool tune. Nice, almost funky, beat going on.
As far as the reverb.... if it's a VST, and the DAW in question has VST compatibility, yes... it's supposed to work.

Nicely done. This is a good arrangement and I think there would be a lot of gospel quartets across the Bible Belt who would love to add this song to their playlist. The vocal and harmonies were stellar.

Funky and smooooooooth. An inspiring use of the horns -- gotta try that some time. Very nice easy going production that works perfectly with your vocal which, BTW, just flows so naturally through the song. An effortless feel -- nothing forced, nothing contrived....honest comes to mind. The mix sounds great on our monitors. Classy in all aspects.
J&B
PS You can NEVER go wrong with having Jack play on a production!

Josie,
This is my favorite of anything I've ever heard of yours.
Solid in every regard. A good write - and a great fresh angle. A very tasty production. Nothing overdone and a lot of "nice little touches". A smooth, confident vocal. Great job with the BIABettes!
I like those drums for this. Nice guitar licks. Cool horns - one of the best applications I've heard of those...
Well done! A very good listen.

Great groove, horns and vocals. I may have to investigate those horns soon. Works for me!

I was driving home one day with the radio turned off enjoying some quiet time when this song idea started singing in my head. I'm so glad you liked it. This convolution is new to me but I'm going to experiment more with it. I tried several larger hall impulses but went with what you hear which ironically is a church. Josie

Thank you Herb, Glad you liked it. It is a funky beat - I was just a few months out of a Christian Funk band when I wrote this so the beat was an influence of that I guess. Reaverb is a reverb that comes with Reaper - I'm not sure it's available as a stand alone VST. Josie

PS You can NEVER go wrong with having Jack play on a production! J&B, What nice things to say. I really appreciate it. Thanks so much to both of you for making my day. On the PS. - I probably shouldn't confess I was seriously tempted to ask one of the "Axemen" on here to play but then I figured I'd better stay with ol' Jack since he was there from the beginning.

floyd Floyd, What a sweet review. Thank you very much. I'm so happy you liked it. It's great that all the time and effort I put in remixing this worked. I was really unsure if anyone here would relate to an R&B Christian song with a funky beat. I'll stop rambling and just say again - thank you. BIABettes - hey, who knew until you shared what was possible with a little experimenting. Josie
