Hi All, Here's something folky and a bit vintage sounding - this is called Avalanche. Summer days The lost and found Shades of green An old ghost town Voices fading Old telephones A changing world Outside the zone And I’m so buried I’m so buried I’m buried in your avalanche Pictures hidden Away in my mind Somethings going down The perfect crime Whispers falling On the pillow case Sad blue eyes Gone without a trace And I’m so buried I’m so buried I’m buried in your avalanche Bang your drum East to west Counter clockwise This is not a test Middle of nowhere In the morning skies The rain is falling On the time that flies And I’m so buried I’m so buried I’m buried in your avalanche All BIAB Tracks: 1008: Bass, Electric, ElecRock Ev 120 1681: Guitar, Acoustic, 12-String, Fingerpicking Ev 120 405: Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 120 789: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm CrossoverClean Sw16 090 Loop: vybez_70_shaker Loop: Chillout/Chillout - dimensions_145_choir Thanks for listening!

Hi rsdean,
I like your voice and how you sing this. Reminds of more simpler times, when people had the spiritual space to explore honest moments and reflect. Thanks for sharing.

Yep, folky and a bit vintage sounding.
Nice mix and vocals, evocative without being specific.

Bob, vintage & folky indeed - though the bass line is a bit busy - you've pulled together an ace arrangement and your intimate vocals work well within it.
I still get that pleasant Rod McKuen vibe.

Bob,
Ethereal lyrics and that smoky texture to your voice which grounds the song nicely. Love that 12-string!
I`m enjoying your creative output-you are bringing us so many good songs.

Really nice work here It has a very, very unique quality to it. It definitely has a modern approach to it, and the vocal delivery adds an almost haunted vibe to it. Very interesting lyrics too to help propel the whole thing. You should be proud of this - thanks for sharing!

Love this mix. It is nice and soft and your vocals really shine.
Just a really well mixed, warm and intensely enjoyable song.

I really loved the opening imagery: "Summer days; the lost and found. Shades of green, an old ghost town. Voices fading. Old telephones. A changing world outside the zone." Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

A little folky with a vintage sound, just the way I like it.
Your vocal was top notch as was your mix but the lyrics took it over the top for me.
Excellent work that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Bob,
What a great vibe this has! Love the vocal; meshes so well with the sound you’ve created. I’m not quite sure I follow the lyrics, BUT I’m not one to think it matters. To me, a song is a mesh of word, lyric, melody, harmony, etc. There’s enough mood and emotion here to make to keep me listening, and the chorus keeps it compelling. Very well done.
Kindest regards,
Deej

RealBand® for Windows® is your all-in-one audio workstation and accompaniment program, and if you've purchased a copy of Band-in-a-Box® for Windows in the last decade, it's been included in your purchase!
We released RealBand in July 2008, along with Band-in-a-Box® 2008.5.
"RealBand brings a new level of ease and flexibility to anyone creating recordings. Record your own tracks, type in the chords, pick a style, and then add any MIDI or audio (Real) tracks to follow your chords - all in a single program. For example, type in chords to your song, generate a RealDrums track, record in your guitar and vocal parts. Then put on your 'arranger' hat and have some fun automatically adding RealTracks - maybe a guitar solo, or pedal steel background for the bridge."
We hope everyone enjoys using RealBand, which combines some great features from our PowerTracks Pro Audio program with the powerful accompaniment features from Band-in-a-Box®!

Un nuevo Navegador de Funciones permite al usuario nuevo u "olvidadizo" encontrar y usar fácilmente la mayoría de las funciones / teclas de acceso rápido / documentos desde una sola ventana. Ecualizar Tempo permite cambiar una canción de rubato grabada a un tempo fijo. Tiempo de audio mejorado / estiramiento de tono (Elastique) incluido. Hay mejoras en el Selector de Canciones, Bajo/Batería o Batería solo Auto-Intros, 3.400 títulos añadidos, mejoras MusicXML, guitarra para "Zurdos" y "Vista de estudiante", mejoras de Arrastrar y Soltar, Ventana Múltiple del Mago del Acorde de Audio y mucho más!
