Superb use of Band In A Box and Loops (assume drums -anything else?) to create an amazing cohesive sound.
Great song (as expected) loved the style & powerful vocals.
Love to know how you put that one together!
Truly excellent!

Well now! That's some damn good work. Great production from top to bottom.
Something about dangerous women, ain't there. I've got one on that subject I'll post some day.

Floyd, your use of the realtracks in this tune are the best I can remember listening to since I've been around here! You must have spent a tremendous amount of time sorting these out! I can't hear ANYTHING that sounds "off" in any way! It's such a clean production and everything falls into place perfectly! If PG Music doesn't use this as a promo tool for their product, they are really missing a great opportunity as far as I'm concerned! Thanks, Torrey

Wow! This is as good as it gets! My new favorite of yours (and that's saying a lot!)
Great use of RT's and loops. Your vocals are as good as ever. Particularly like your bgv's. Very well done!
Great write!

Love the intro - it set up the song and hooks me right away. Super fun listen - well sung, interesting instrument parts, catchy rhymes, cool harmony. Sounds a bit like an extended theme song for television show. Man, you've got a hot band there! (And the singer's not bad either ).

Hi Floyd, As a big fan of guys like CCR, Tony Joe White, Redbone and many others, this hit me right between the pick-ups. I loved it. And I love it when I play a song that has me turning the volume up to 10 right away. Your vocal slides over the lyrics like molasses on a hot day, every nuance perfectly fits each line. And the production is awesome. Great job. Keep 'em coming Swamp Thing! All the best Martin
Music is what feelings sound like.

Hi floyd,
Now *this* is my type of country, something with a little attitude! Sort of a Steve Earle vibe happening.
Great intro! And those drums! Love the kick, snare too; great groove and sitting in the mix loud and proud.
Nice job mixing the guitars, the way you have them panned sounds fabulous through the phones; a little conversation happening there between them.
Good idea using two different bass realtracks! It's never crossed my mind to do that, but it works a treat to give the chorus a distinct feel.
And of course love your vocal and writing:
"she'll take you down so deep you'll never make it back word is the devil tried and even that boy cracked the girl is dangerous"
Nice!
Great start to 2020!

What a tune - love the vocals on this. Perfectly written, and delightfully catchy. Top notch work on the mixing job too. I wouldn't bat an eyelash if I heard this on the radio.
Thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Holy cow, Floyd! To paraphrase the late George Jones, "We heard there was a fast train, coming out of Florida."

Peter Thanks, Peter. The drums are loops. And the banjo and some guitars.

Floyd, An amazingly tight band on a cool edgy song that`s still so darn catchy. The use of loops and editing nuance is nothing short of benchmark use of the software... I`d love to see you make another video on your process ( heck, this is good enough PG Music might want to think about a contractual arrangement for sharing the wisdom!). Loved it.
Robert

I'd never guess these were RTs and loops, amazing! Some sins can't be atoned, great line. Sounds like a hit song to me, once you add those superb vocals. Running out of superlatives over here.

An FJ classic. You've wrangled the loops & RTs superbly. What stands out, for me, is the vocal recording. It sounds pristine but I'm sure you've done some work on the tracks. Any tricks n tips re vocal tracking & treatment you'd care to offer the world?

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."
