#269247 - 11/21/14 02:28 PM [User Showcase] To the Bone
Registered: 05/02/14 Posts: 3180 Loc: The Netherlands RnAM Veteran Registered: 05/02/14 Posts: 3180 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: 7971 Loc: Winston-Salem, NC Pat Marr Veteran Registered: 10/25/08 Posts: 7971 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. Congrats on another fine tune. J&B _________________________ J&B Soundcloud J&B YouTube J&B Website

Band-in-a-Box® - Boxing Clever - Sound on Sound #TBT

Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® is more than 30 years old? I stumbled across this 1990 magazine article explaining the relatively new program, and think it's an enjoyable read for any Band-in-a-Box user - it really shows that we are always listening to user feedback when developing our program!

Read the article: Boxing Clever: Band-In-A-Box Software

A few of my favorite statements:

"The intention of PG Music's Band-In-A-Box package is to couple that speed and convenience with the improved flexibility of the personal computer. Versions are available for the Atari ST, Mac, and PC compatibles. Have the programmers succeeded? And can they rid themselves of the stigma of the auto-accompaniment section? Given the above state of affairs, the first hurdle that the program has to overcome is one of acceptance and, frankly, a name like 'Band-In-A-Box' is a bad start."

(I think our name was a great start!)

"The final results are, to say the least, impressive. Band-In-A-Box achieves something that most hardwired auto-accompaniment sections have never been able to do - inject a degree of feel into the music. It really does sound more human than so many of the computer generated pieces I've heard."

"...I'm quite convinced that PG Music will have a winner on their hands. This is one piece of software that you can get more out of than you put in."
