Cool track! Good to hear a new song from you (maybe I am wrong but I think it is quite a while since you posted here?)
I like the style of music and your choices of RealTracks. Well done!
Will

Nice work, Mike  Love the groove, and the mix on this is top notch. It flows tremendously well too. Very relaxing, and easy on the ears which I liked. Thanks for sharing!

Mike, I always expect a great arrangement and production from you and this one lives up my expectations. You get the most out of the real tracks and definitely post some of the best jazz tracks on the forum. Excellent listen, Tom

Nice flow. Musically interesting. I imagine a private detective lurking through the empty streets at night as I listened to this.

Mike,
This is such an inspiring listen!
You've picked and a terrific ensemble of Realtracks and your arrangement is really well done. You've definitely got the knack for this kind of jazz.... very impressive work! I tip my hat to you... this was a wonderful listen.
All the best,
Noel

Band-in-a-Box® - Boxing Clever - Sound on Sound #TBT
Did you know that Band-in-a-Box® is more than 30 years old? I stumbled across this 1990 magazine article explaining the relatively new program, and think it's an enjoyable read for any Band-in-a-Box user - it really shows that we are always listening to user feedback when developing our program!
Read the article: Boxing Clever: Band-In-A-Box Software
A few of my favorite statements:
"The intention of PG Music's Band-In-A-Box package is to couple that speed and convenience with the improved flexibility of the personal computer. Versions are available for the Atari ST, Mac, and PC compatibles. Have the programmers succeeded? And can they rid themselves of the stigma of the auto-accompaniment section? Given the above state of affairs, the first hurdle that the program has to overcome is one of acceptance and, frankly, a name like 'Band-In-A-Box' is a bad start."
(I think our name was a great start!)
"The final results are, to say the least, impressive. Band-In-A-Box achieves something that most hardwired auto-accompaniment sections have never been able to do - inject a degree of feel into the music. It really does sound more human than so many of the computer generated pieces I've heard."
"...I'm quite convinced that PG Music will have a winner on their hands. This is one piece of software that you can get more out of than you put in."
