Hello mkg50. The intro sounded very epic. Then the tune settled into a comfortable groove.

I really found this enjoyable and a touch relaxing. Looking forward to hearing more from you. Rob

Nice production. I like the way you keep the arrangement moving--all the parts flowed well into each other. Enjoyable to listen to.

Mike… Really enjoyed listening to your very creative track. Liked pretty much everything about it!

Couple of questions… I’m guessing you’re a keyboard player, correct? and that you played all the lead keyboard parts?

How did you get that (keyboard) sound starting at about 1:20? And there is that “rolling thunder” type sound in the intro and again at the end… Interested in how you got that!

I especially liked the gentle modulations in the intro, again at the ene, handled so smoothly. Looking forward to hearing more of your work!

A very enjoyable listen Mike. An extremely accomplished and creative composition in terms of the journey taken by the track, the changes, instrumentation; well, everything really! Top drawer stuff. More please!

Mike, this is so good on every level! It's very creative, inventive and keeps the listeners attention! There's so much going on here it's hard to appreciate it all! I really liked the way you you used the electric pianos in this one even though the sax parts kind of steal the attention! The wonderful slow beginning and the quieter passage toward the end are very well executed! I primarily post rock/pop type tunes but this is the kind of music I like to listen to when I'm alone! You are obviously a brilliant musician/producer and I look forward to what you will share with us in the future! Thanks, Torrey

Thanks. The 'flow' is important to me (and something I sweat over in every piece) so your words are very welcome.

A new age intro followed some smooth jazz, great combination!

I thought the flow here was excellent, especially during the intro and ending. Great job on that.

I really liked this one!


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Hi Mike,

I've not heard any of your work before and I see you've only posted 15 times in about two years. It would be great if you posted more! This is such a marvelous tuner! Loved it from the emotional opening through the various changes thereafter. Love how you smoothly integrated the various parts. I hope you are very proud of this - I certainly would be!

You put a lot of power (big sound) into such a lovely song. Best to you.

Alan

Thanks. I usually work things out on my guitar and then fumble around on the keyboard to get my ideas down. The keyboards are RealTracks featuring Jeff Lorber (RT1437 and RT1640).
The rolling thunder is just a tympani wave file I downloaded from the Internet.

There are a whole bunch of cool styles and BiaB, and you've managed to thread a bunch of disparate styles into a solid track. That's no mean feat!

I enjoyed the listen.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Thanks David. I love most music so it's always an issue deciding how to best arrange a particular composition.

Very impressive, the song manages to captivate and keep maintain the listner's interest throughout.

Very textured, a kaleidoscope of music.

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."
