That was fun - lizard/reptile brain & Fight or Flight response were BUZZ word of the late 80s early 90s.
Interesting arrangement - it worked the best when sparse. The rhythm guitar is, perhaps, too normal, (might need some DUB in & out of the mix, massive reverb/delay treatment to be less ordinary).
Good stuff.


Cheers

Ha,
That's unique for sure!
Ya know, the number one artist these days is Billie Eilish.
I think you could give her some competition:

Thanks for the listen Ray.
Your comments are much appreciated.
Food for thought.

Thank you Captain.
Never heard of Billie Eillish before and thoroughly enjoyed meeting her on utube.
Cheers.

This surely wakes up my lizard brain with very hypnotic rhythm, I hope there are no subliminal commands smile Different, strange yet modern, unique sound landscape. Excellent use of BIAB.

Unique!
I love it...
And I imagine you had a lot of fun putting this one together!

Where in the world did you come up with the concept?

It sounds like something Rayc would do.

Very cool!

Hi Janne.
Now there's an idea I must try.
Embedded subliminal commands.
Thanks for such positive comments.
Cheers.

Hi Jim.
Thanks for the support.
Just trying to figure out how to use RealBand and Realtracks again, forgotten over the last couple of years, keeping the lyrics to the minimum. I do enjoy these toys. Cheers.

Hypnotic stuff, RichMac!
In the start I thought 'what the heck is happening here?'
But then I got hypnotized by the melody.
That was the good thing about it, the bad thing is now the phrase 'Lizard Brain' stays around in my head.
I wonder for how long...

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

A weirdly charming refrain that; it sounds like you had fun with the effects.I was expecting a really heavy drum track/more grunge guitars to come in, but enjoyed the hypnotic repetitions.

Hi Hans,
Wish I knew. 'That phrase' has been bouncing around my head for weeks now. Thanks for listening and commenting.

Hi David. I'm really glad of that.
'Grooowk' or whatever noise happy lizards make.
Cheers.

Man, is that ever entertaining. We were wondering how to express
our thoughts, went and read the comments and it would be hard
to beat what Janne said!

We have a large tin lizard as "yard art" and I don't think we'll ever
walk by it again w/o thinking of this song! smile

Fun.

Now try to find time to write another one of your unique songs!

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."
