Hola I was listening to some old records by Dizzy Gillespie and then thought of doing a tune in his style, so https://soundcloud.com/cubanpete/night-with-dizzie was born. Done in RB All midi using different VST except for the trumpet solo/melody which is 463Trumpet solo. Hope you all like it. Mike B.

What's not to like?  Somewhere in a box I have the old time sheet music for Cuban Pete as performed by Ricky Ricardo and used at the ending of the Jim Carrie movie - "The Mask". I'd be interested how you put this together. Parts that were generated, and parts you played on?- keyboard I guess?

Hi Mike, I thoroughly enjoyed the listen. I don't know a great deal of Dizzy Gillespie's music but I like jazz and your composition certainly reminded me of those Gillespie pieces I know. It sounded just great! A terrific use of midi, too. This is my new favourite of your work  All the best, Noel

Mike you've done a great job, fantastic use of swing tempo as well. Really superb all around.

Review - Loops-with-Style PAK 2 for Band-in-a-Box® 2020
"Dr. Dave" Walker is at it again! You may remember his recent reviews of both Band-in-a-Box 2020 for Mac and Xtra Styles PAK 9 - now he has something to say about our Loops-with-Style PAK 2 - check it out: Click here to read...
With money being tight for most musicians, this is a wonderful gift for those on a limited budget. At $29, it offers months and years of fun and experimentation, bringing many ideas to fruition as songs with enough variation so that your audience doesn’t jump to "aw, that's a computer!" while still keeping the power of the software in your hands.
-"Dr. Dave" Walker
Thank you again Dr. Dave for the great review!
