The change at 1:40 is so darn good... as is the vocalist`s phrasing, the bass and everything else.
Terrific collaboration!

Hi rayc,

Thanks for your initial kind comment.

You have often criticized my tracks and most of the time you have been absolutely spot on with your critique (and I have learned a lot from you... thanks for that).

This time, though, I have to disagree with you... I think the "lengthy bass centred solo" works fine.. it is not a uncommon thing to do in jazz music... could it be that your comment is born out of your dislike of the genre in general?

Thanks again for always giving feed back to my tracks! I really appreciate it!

Hello Will and Heidi,

THAT IS JUST AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a collaboration ... Will, the tune alone is extremely well-written and brought to musical life; your usage of BIAB has become galactic to me already a long time ago, but this one is so real... just like sitting in a bar, eyes closed and getting carried away by what you hear-

And what an unbelievable winndfall that you two found each other ! Heidi - you sing this in the most impressive way, it's just terrific!

I do hope that you will work together also in the future, because that would be an enormous benefit for this forum.

All the best for 2020, and, please: Keep 'em coming!

Stefan

Excellent mix - clear and balanced. Great vocal. Like being in the room, without the distraction of the crown.

I'm sure there were lyrics, but to be honest I was too distracted by the jazzy sound to pay much attention.

I love it when a song carries me away to somewhere else, and this one certainly did. laugh

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

Thanks a lot for listening, Peter! I hope you are doing well "down under"... the pictures I see in the news are just like watching a horror movie... It must be a nightmare to live close to all those fires.

Take care,

Hi Stefan,

I hope you are doing well!

Thank you for your kind comments! We are pretty satisfied with the track, but it is of course always nice when somebody else like it too.

Thanks for listening!
Will

Wow - I thoroughly enjoyed this one. It has a fantastic groove and I love how smooth it is. It flows like water, and the vocals are stunning here.

You should both be proud of this one - thanks for sharing!

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."
