As we count down to the end of 2016, I figured a "clock song" would be appropriate... A co-write with Michael LeBlanc. The BAND: Style is _ELECROK.STY (ElecRock RealTrks guits (120 RS)) RealTracks in style: ~388:Bass, Electric, Metal Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 694:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm ElecRockArp Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 697:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm ElecRockDirty Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 1273:Guitar, Electric, Soloist PopUplift Ev16 120 RealTracks in song: 1169:Guitar, Electric, Soloist RockMediumBrent Ev 120 RealDrums in style: RockHardModernEv8^2-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Open HiHat BIAB Cowbell Loop Cuckoo clock sample CUCKOO i hear the clock strike i'm reminded by that bird been waiting all night cuckoo is all i've heard i'm gonna smash that bird if he calls out one more time it'll be his last word he's driving me out of my mind he called me cuckoo once he called me cuckoo twice he called me cuckoo through the night 'cause i'm waiting for you to come back home undeniable, certifiable crazy as a loon 'cause i'm waiting for you to come back home still waiting for you to come back home it's nearly morning where the hell you at i smashed that bird; i warned him can't take no more of that one last look, hit the lights giving up, going to bed but something just ain't right cuckoo still running through my head repeat chorus Happy New Year, Y'all. Hope you have a great one. floyd BIAB 2017 installed and ready to go...

Great song Floyd and Michael.
So much energy in that song, I can see you kicking that bird down the street.
All the best.
Cheers. Mike.

Hi Floyd and Michael.
I DO like your heavier side, Floyd.
An amazing track with super guitars and what sounded like Phil Collins on drums!
Great vocals and inspired lyrics.
A startlingly good mix - loved the reverb.
A good track to close out 2016.

Yeah! Awesome groove, and nice to hear you rock out!
I really enjoyed this, great intro! And the lyrics are fun and well written. Love the vocals, especially in the chorus, the way you arranged that part.
I would have liked the lead guitar to be just a touch more upfront in the mix, it seems a little buried, especially the little lead guitar fill before the second verse.
Great way to end out the year!

A solid production, and a very clever write.
In particular, I loved the way you held off on the reveal - 'cause i'm waiting for you to come back home - until the chorus was almost over. Sort of a "Luke, I am your father" moment that completely transforms the song.

What a power sound! And how do you get your mixes this loud without clipping? Love the cuckoo sound, when I first saw the title I didn't know what to think about it, until I listened ;-) you and Michael did a very nice job. A great rocker all around.

Appreciate your support always, ROG. And...to have you say the drums sounded like Phil Collins is a real compliment! The RealDrums in the style (RockHardModernEv8) were a good choice for this... and I added a snare sample track that duplicated each of the snare hits - and a kick track that duplicated each of the kick hits... that way, I could have complete control of the volume of the kick and snare... "startlingly good mix" - I really appreciate that, too!!

What a great unusual twist for a song!! Really fun rocker! The sound is awesome-sounds like a 70's rock band in a midnight studio with everything turned to eleven!! I don't think I've heard this level of "liveness" with just RTs. I know I can't get there. Vocal (performance and processing) is stellar. Awesome job on this one!! Take care. Happy New Year! Greg

Good song.

Love the way you got that cuckoo clock intertwined with the rhythm. Terrific arrangement. Clever write. Different and fun. I always enjoy your rock side - love the vocal and harmonies. Really great sounding high energy rocker. Happy new year!

Great way to end out the year! Thanks, Dave. I did wonder about whether the lead needed to come up some. Although, the short one before the 2nd verse was intended to "blend in" to the music flow with the cuckoo, so I'm good with that being not-quite-so-up-front.... but I do think the main solo could come up some... Very Nice Floyd. Great production. Great harmonies. Great song. Love the cuckoo sample! Thanks, Joanne... A solid production, and a very clever write.
In particular, I loved the way you held off on the reveal - 'cause i'm waiting for you to come back home - until the chorus was almost over. Sort of a "Luke, I am your father" moment that completely transforms the song.
- glad you dropped by, David. But, now I keep hearing "Luuuukkkee..."

I think our monitors are OK. We had to pick them up off the floor. This puppy rocks! Your ability to produce killer productions in multiple genres seems to know no end. This is a great example of how a seemingly pegged in your face production can also, counterintuitively, breath. This must have been an interesting mixing exercise.
You vocally move seamlessly from country ballads to rock and it works. That's a real gift and makes, we're sure, for a lot of fun. This cool write and production makes for a lot of fun for us also!

Inspired intro ( well, what else could you do with a very original title like that!) and it sounds like you really had fun with the vocal on this - energy comes powering through. I too like this rocking side of you!

Floyd, My friend told me to tell you that you are cuckoo, but his kind of cuckoo. Happy New Year! Oh, great song bro!!! Clever!! Hey! It takes one to know one. Crazies make the best music. What a power sound! And how do you get your mixes this loud without clipping? Love the cuckoo sound, when I first saw the title I didn't know what to think about it, until I listened ;-) you and Michael did a very nice job. A great rocker all around.
Rob Thanks! I generally mix as loud as works. I don't believe in that -12 dB thing - at all!!! As long as it isn't distorting... and, heck... it's Rock'n'Roll. Often, it's the snare that is the thing that sends the meters into the red. I don't worry about that - it's a snare, after all... if you take that out and everything else is under, then you are okay - throw that hot drum back in!

Hi, Floyd !:))
This must be one of the most original rock tunes I´ve ever heard and at the same time it is one of your absolute best if not even the best rocker !
Those lyrics too, could not help laughin´my belly out thinkin´on that poor bird that is completely innocent and can´t help jumpin´out when the machinery requires it to do do !!!
LOL

What a production!!! Stellar on every level. A full production similar to my take away from 'Diamonds' from a few years ago.
You seem as comfortable with this style as you do with ballads. Great dynamic vocals.
Enjoyed this one a lot. I've got a great image in my head of Janice and Bud jumping around trying to catch the falling monitors...

floyd and Michael,
Congratulations on a great write, outstanding arrangement, and in really involving production and performance. Try as I might, I couldn't stop my feet from tapping. I really liked the sync'd cuckoo-clock sound... a very inventive musical addition.

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!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
