Sorry folks, been so much on the road - all kind of things interfering with songwriting but, I managed to write this little surf tune ( and boy, was it anything but easy ). http://soundcloud.com/user-337827005/under-the-surfer-moon-1http://app.box.com/s/mqfk5qyin4vbrdt415u171whz9seazatI used the following Style: TEKW10+.STY and that style included the following instros: Synbass: 40 Synbass 2 Elec Piano: 6 elec Piano 2 Drums: Realdrums =Technowildout AB - kick, kick Less Guitar 1: GM2 28/1 Elguit Detuned Clean Sweep Pad: 96 Pad Sweep Guitar 2: 28 Clean El Guit. Recorded with Mixcraft 7 PRO to my laptop with Stagg mic. the Lyrics are as follows: Under The Surfer Moon (Music and words by Norman Wibe) Let´s fly away my darlin´ fly from the coldest roon let´s fly away right soon stay there for all of June under the surfer moon we´ll be kissin´each other deeply in love Let´s go and feel the ocean ride on the wildest waves surfin´from dawn till noon earnin´the greatest voon under the surfer moon we´ll be huggin´each other tight in love Let´s find out what it really means to be out on the deep blue sea surfin´in love, together you and me Let´s fly away my darlin´ fly from the coldest roon let´s fly away right soon stay there for all of June under the surfer moon we´ll be kissin´each other deeply in love Let´s find out what it really means to be out on the deep blue sea surfin´in love, together you and me Will you not join me darlin´ let´s hurry far away we gotta get there fast summertime there won´t last then we´ll be under the moon I´ll be holding you oh so tight in love in love ! Cheers Dani

Hi Dani,
You seem to be making a quite home in the surfin' 60s genre these days! Loved the key change. It made me sit up and pay attention because I wasn't expecting it. That was a nice arranging touch indeed.
It's always a pleasure to listen to you sing and hear what you've put together.
All the best to you and Li,
Noel

Hi Dani,
For me your best so far.. I cant believe that standard of harmonies you achieved, excellent.
Having surfed most of my life, it really hit a sweet spot.

You nailed that one, Dani!
The harmonies are perfect!
A very solid BB write - lyric and melody.
Killer melody!
Excellent.

Oh yeah! Another fine one Dani. Somewhere I have a picture of me with my board on top of a VW! Your surf tunes bring back many memories...and you do them so well!
Thanks for the fun.

Hi, Scott !!!:))
I´m truly glad you
liked the vocal harmonies
as they were not easy to do
not in the key I had chosen !
I could have altered the key
but then again I had already
sung the lead parts so.....
Thank you so much for your
very kind words !
Cheers
Dani

What a lovely song, very enjoyable! I always like creamy harmonies so this was a real listening pleasure, especially with the modulations going on in there.

Very, very sweet!! One of your best melodies ever-the Beach Boys would have had a top 10 with this. I see you've left the Loch and gone back to the ocean. Really beautiful Dani!! Take care. Greg

Hi Dani,
Such a nice groove to this!
We like it very much when you sing in a high key, like in this one.
One of your best we think.

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."
