Time for a change in the music I produce. I wanted to produce a track that could turn a bad day (for me) into a better day - just by listening to some music. It's a sort of "vintage" rock inspired by a sound from many decades ago.

I hope you like it.

A Good Day


All credit should go to the amazing RT-soloists RT1273 and RT3214.
Also used RT1268, RT1277 and RT1269.

Hi Will!

Good song! The instruments really stand out. In my (MHO) I would have loved to hear a change in the middle to give me a respite then back to the grove. This song reminds me a little of: A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harum, but, all in all, good listening!

Thanks for sharing!!!

All the best,
Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks. I understand what you mean, but I just wanted to make a very simple track that I can listen to in the morning and get an uplifting kick before I go to work. smile

Thank you Kenny,

Yes, the drums is actually my favorite part as well. Worked quite a bit with them so they could support the soloists in the best possible way.

Thanks for listening!

Will,

The drums carry this very "up" instrumental.I like the harp too- don`t often hear it given time to shine.
Retro rock is good when its done like this!

Thank you, Robert.
Do you think the mixing is ok? I'm not very experienced with this style of music.

Wow, there's nothing like good old classic rock jammin'! I like the way you alternate between the harmonica and lead guitar. At different points in the song, I could hear various other bands from that era. Santana is one of them, but I can't think of the names of the other ones because it's been so long since I heard those bands. It's definitely a "feel good" song, so you achieved your goal with this one.

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."
