#269247 - 11/21/14 02:28 PM [User Showcase] To the Bone
Registered: 05/02/14 Posts: 3156 Loc: The Netherlands RnAM Veteran Registered: 05/02/14 Posts: 3156 Loc: The Netherlands	Hello everyone, This is our new song: To the Bone We think this one has a 'Byrds' feel to it. Well that's mainly because of the 1030 12 string electric real track. Rob added it in the final stage of the song. We had some footage left of our trip to London, and decided to put it in. Song specifics: Style is _M16SELC.STY (Med.Pop16s wEl.Guit&Piano[110RS]) 1603:Bass, Electric, Pop16ths Ev 110 1610:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Pop16 Ev16 110 1607:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Pop16thsGritty Ev16 110 1606:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Pop16ths Ev16 110 1030:Guitar, 12-String Electric, Fingerpicking Ev 120 1269:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopUpliftGritty Ev16 120 NashvilleEven16^6-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, HiHat Open 1261 guitar electric soloist popshining ev 120 bluesy 1 We hope you like it, As always any comments are welcome. Rob & Anne-Marie Lyrics: City streets in front of me Every light is calling your name With the edgy words you said to me Half of me is wandering in pain Ooh that smile on your face And ooh that fire in your eyes I remember you say I will never let go Though I'm draining your love to the bone And suddenly it seems I've been waiting too long With all of my freedom long gone Petty things and precious hopes Lovely nights fly out of the door Your piercing eyes will follow me They hunt me down wherever I go Ooh that mind rages on And ooh that voice tears me down I remember you say I will never let go Though I'm draining your love to the bone And suddenly it seems I've been waiting too long With all of my freedom long gone Ooh that smile on your face And ooh that fire in your eyes If I'm leaving this town, don't know where I will end Trying fiercely to leave things behind And someday I'll find there is no love to deny It would always come down to a lie _________________________ We are Rob Meulman and Anne-Marie Bovenkamp from The Netherlands.

Production is killer. Solo works perfectly. I also love the 12 string electric. My next post is a song that uses that, as well as my last post. It has a great sound. This song is very cool! Take care. Greg

Really nice footage of London at night too - the opening shot of the ferris wheel in the skyline is so pretty. Enjoyed this song very much. Wonderful production and vocals by you both.

You guys always have some of the best music on these boards. There are a lot of very talented people here and you two rate at ot near the top with your great songs and superb production. We loved the song. That 12-string electric is a winner. I (Alan) used to have but no longer do. You're making me think about it!!!! Super nice! best to you ... Also, in a couple of hours, maybe earlier, we're gonna post Di's first song since her stroke last month. We wrote and recorded it this afternoon ... about 6 hours total.

Those 12 string real tracks are one of the best in the program. It's always convenient to have some holiday footage to spare, haha. Next year will be going to Berlin, and when we get back will probably have even more footage. Regards, Rob _________________________ We are Rob Meulman and Anne-Marie Bovenkamp from The Netherlands.

Registered: 10/25/08 Posts: 7634 Loc: Winston-Salem, NC Pat Marr Veteran Registered: 10/25/08 Posts: 7634 Loc: Winston-Salem, NC	Rob and Anne-Marie, I want to rave about this song, but I just called the superlative bank, and they said I'm overdrawn. ;( But seriously... didn't you two maniacs just post a mega-production?? How could have something this good ready so soon? I must say, you have a real feel for writing compelling relationship-based pop-songs. ALL of your stuff sounds marketable to me. They're all so good I find myself wishing for a generic reply so I don't have to keep thinking up new ways to say what a good job you both do on these productions. The particulars have already been stated very well... it's a great chord pattern, your harmonies are always PERFECT and the lyrics are especially interesting to me because they almost always have an appeal to both genders. Do you collaborate on lyrics? Each of you making slight changes in order to solidify the impact with your own gender? Or are you really that intuitive about how to say exactly the right things?

Yes, the 12-string is lovely here. And not having a 12-string is no problem.... we don't have it either. That's why we have Biab!

I like the electric 12 string. I saw the Byrds several times back in the day and have always liked that sound. Per your high bar everything sounds extremely well produced on my KRK's.

Notation Enhancements in Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Windows!

There are Notation Enhancements in the NEW Band-in-a-Box® 2019 for Windows! These include:
•A new button in the Print Options dialog which lets you quickly print a "chords only" fake sheet. You can also access this from the right-click menu on the chord sheet.
•A new track type (Drums) is now available for The Melody and Soloist tracks.
•Clicking close to a stave line will put a note on the stave line instead of between stave lines. (Previously, you had to click extremely close to a stave line to insert a note on The line.)
•Double-clicking on the Standard mode Notation window (or on the time line in Editable or Staff Roll mode) plays the song from the current time location. Previously, it played the song from the beginning of the current bar.
•Holding down the [Ctrl] key and pressing the zoom in/out buttons results in finest possible incremental adjustment in size.
•In The Notation Windows Options dialog, The clefs split point asterisk indicates that C5* is middle C.
•Pressing The space bar plays the song from the current time location, not the current bar.
•The clefs split point can be set by the spin controls.
•The right-click menu in the Editable or Staff Roll mode Notation window has an option to change the current beat resolution. Previously, the only way to do this was to right-click on the time line.
•There's a keystroke entry notation mode - the 'N' mode, which lets you enter a melody entirely using keystrokes. The keystrokes are N to enter a note, up/down cursor to change its pitch, and left/right cursor to move the time line.
•You can now edit any track in the Event List Editor. When The dialog opens, it will show you the MIDI data in the current Notation track.
•You can quickly enter forced accidentals from the right-click menu.
