Interesting arrangement.
personally I'd like MORE kick drum - particularly in the intro (which is a bit long and lacks something to focus on - like a cello - to be honest).
The rhythm guitars are a bit fizz given the rounder sounds of everything else including the solo guitars.
Cool stuff notwithstanding my minor quibbles.


Cheers

Hi Will,

smile smile smile smile SOOOOO GOOD !!!! You must be on vacation, Will, because you're coming up with great and very original, witty and most surprising stuff almost on a weekly basis.

This one is funny, but also musically great - the exact opposite of boring!

And the title alone deserves 5 stars.

I can only repeat: I like what you're doing !!!

All the best,

Stefan

Thanks a lot for listening, rayc!

It's very good, constructive and useful critique and it is all things I will take into consideration if I ever make a new mix of this track.

I appreciate that you took the time to listen and comment!

Hi Stefan,

Oh, how I wish I was on a vacation now, but I'm actually as busy as ever at my work. I just find making music to be a nice way of relaxing when I have a little spare time.

I signed up for this FAWM-thing that I read about on this forum, but there is no way I will manage to create 14 songs in February... just way too busy at work.

Thanks for listening and your nice comments!

Will,

It is a very nice idea.
I think that cello and rock band are rarely played together like this tune as actual performance, but it surely will attract the audience if it is realized.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

First off I have to say that I really love this title!

You have a flair for bringing together some pretty amazing sounds from diverse genres and making them work. That's a skill I admire a lot!

This is really, really well done.

Yeah, I would vote for more cellos or other string instruments at rock concerts. Diversity is great!

Thank you so much for listening and commenting!

Hi Noel,

Like Shigeki mentioned, it is seldom that we hear a cello in a rock band... as seldom as finding a cello in your soup. smile

Thank you for listening. As always I feel blessed when experienced musicians like you
- and all the other good people here - take time to listen and comment.

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!

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."
