I have to say I think this is my favorite Xtra Styles Pak, this set #5. I am using this opportunity really just to give me the extra “juice” to finish an album, and I am rooting hard for everyone here!

But I am just thankful this contest has given me: Unusual, House Party, Tahoma, Eff It, My God is Not for Sale, Listen to the Rain (not posted yet) and this song, Rock and Roll Sky, all of which will go on my next release sometime this fall. Thanks BIAB! That’s good enough for me!

GENRE_Country (Americana, Alt. Country, Alt Country Rock.) Style_ Rainin3.style. Complete tracks below lyrics

I started with Rainin3.styl, added cello and electric, and played acoustic and piano (a second piano part to an Alberti midi track to fill in some gaps and give it more punch.)

For production, I added the Waves REDD console to the instrument bus (got that for $1 on the recent sale) and ran everything through the waves J-37 on the Master Bus. I could not get the final volume I wanted to match other tracks I have without using the Lurssen console as a final boost, but that is the sauce.

Great stuff everybody. I don’t know how they are going to pick because there is so much fabulous stuff from everyone.

Hope you enjoy this.

ROCK AND ROLL SKY

By David Snyder

V1

Do you still own those rock and roll boots
Do you still wear that rock and roll coat
Do you still drive that rock and roll car
Down to the beach with the night in your throat

PreChorus

You said our glass would never run dry
You promised me
Our love would never die

CH

And there was silent thunder
Under that Rock and Roll sky
Are you still there I wonder
Under that Rock and Roll Sky

V2

I fell in love with a magic girl
And she fell in love with me
Made love with a magic girl
On the edge of eternity

Pre Chorus

We walked on the water
In late July
She promised me
We would never lie

CH

And there was silent thunder
Under that Rock and Roll sky
Are you still there I wonder
Under that Rock and Roll Sky

Pre Chorus

We stared at the water
When we said goodbye
I broke my promise
Cause I think I cried

CH

And there was silent thunder
Under that rock and roll sky
Are you still there I wonder
under that Rock and Roll Sky
Rock and Roll Sky
Rock and Roll Sky
Are you still there I wonder
Under that Rock and Roll Sky
That Rock and Roll Sky

Yet another gemstone from you, Mr. Snyder.... or Mr. Chameleon, as I think is now more fitting, with your ever-changing colours of music & styles (wearing some of The Boss' jacket this time around, by the sound of it) cool

PG team will have some headaches on their hands picking prom the contenders this year, I quite agree...

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."
