Wow. I wasn't expecting that ...
A great rocker and you have tamed that vocaloid. Some sleigh ride that was.
Very nice full sound and well produced.
Cheers.
Mike.

This is definitely the coolest Christmas song posted here! The first part of the song especially would fit right into a Tarantino movie like Kill Bill  Our very best wishes to you! Rob and Anne-Marie

Janne,
This is an excellent, fun seasonal song. I really love the Shevannai vocals but you have also coaxed some lovely Vocaloid vocals and harmonies out of Ruby.
Also the overall rocky vibe is great and has a sparkling sheen to it
Then there's the guitar solo - HOT!!
Loved it!

Janne
What a sensational and outstanding contribution. This is really well done, and like others have mentioned, this has come from left field.
Excellent.

Jez Thanks Jez, nice to hear that you liked the vocal parts. I like the guitar solo too, I think I used some Jimi Hendrix preset in Amplitube for that. Janne

Greg Thanks Greg for your kind words I hadn't heard about Trans-Siberian Orchestra before but now I'm listening to them, interesting stuff. There is sort of a similar Finnish group Raskasta Joulua, they have made heavy metal version of Christmas songs, check for their English album Ragnarok Juletide, for example White Christmas on YouTube.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
