After watching an episode of TAXI TV I was inspired to write an instrumental cue for a show like Duck Dynasty or Swamp People. This is the result. Let me know what you think. Did I hit the mark or what could be improved upon? I appreciate your opinions.

(I have posted the video from TAXI in the Songwriting forum. The link to that is at the bottom of this post.)

Temp: 65bpm

Well done Samuel. I can definitely hear this playing in the background of a movie or tv show. Very enjoyable. Resonator slide was super

Samuel it sounds pretty good to me! I could hear this cue in an episode of one of these type shows. It would probably be more appropriate for a more serious/sad segment of a show given the more mellow/melancholy vibe. Thanks, Torrey

That works. The stop is cool, though it might "draw attention to itself" as background - so would need to be place at just the right spot in a video...

From what ive read and watched on YouTube tutorials many times the entire piece will not be used. They might only use 15 to 30 seconds. So the break acts like an optional stoping point.

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."
