Blues is our wheelhouse.

Thanks for adding this one to the mix.

Everything is hittin' the note with souful singing
and playing - the essence of the blues.

Nice!!

J&B

Hello Captain,

You hate your voice, you're a beginner on the guitar...
You must be kidding us or yourself. However, I heard some other songs from you as well, like Void (v2).
This was also badly sung and horribly played, as you might put it. But I really like your 'bad performances'.
So continue making more of those awful songs and I become your fan!

But, whatever you do, stay on that Bluesside. You're very good on that. You sound like that other, bad singing guy, some here already mentioned. I believe he's called Robert Gray...
And maybe one day, you also believe yourself you can play a guitar and sing a song. I'd love to be there on that day!

Hans

Hans,
You gave me a good laugh this morning, thank you.
laugh

I guess self doubt is always a challenge.
When I began creating my own songs a handful of people encouraged me to keep going and put my stuff out there.
That was quite a frightful idea but, I did it and just kept going.

At this point, I've written/recorded almost 200 songs.
I can't be the judge as to whether any of them are good or bad, that's for the listener to determine.
I know my style will appeal to a limited audience and I hope to keep delivering music they enjoy.
I'm always hopeful that my songs will touch somebody and I'm very grateful when somebody enjoys my work and takes the time to share a some encouraging words.

I've listened to several of your songs.
I like what your doing.
Some worthwhile messages!
Keep them coming.


So Hans,
Thanks again.

Hi CaptainMoto,

I'm very late to the party, but I'm happy I could still make it.

Because this is a wonderful song. You're playing and singing the Blues? I'm your man right from the start!.

And if this is just "learning guitar", it makes me feel like pressing my nose against the window pane of a musical shop, wondering if I could ever hold one of those guitars presented there the right way round... You're far too modest.

If you hadn't written about your age I would never have assumed that you're retired: Your voice sounds a lot younger... And I do like the way you use it!

Liked that song right from the start, very nice intro.

I was a bit surprised that none of our forum friends reacted to that 'psychological' background you gave.

Everyday's violence and everyday's violent reactions to it - very disturbing. I must be about your age, have lived in a major city for many , but neither me nor any of my friends has ever been in such a situation and I simply do not know a single guy of my age who has ever considered learning self-defense stuff. I'm not claiming that there's no violence over here, but it's pretty much against all odds to become a victim of violent actions performed in the public.

What a terrible thought to feel that unsafe when you're leaving your home, very hard to really relate to that... I do hope you won't lose your mild side !

All the very best,

Stefan

CaptainMoto,

This is very cool slow tune. I liked it a lot. Arrangement, vocals guitar A+.
The only thing, I would curb or swap is synth, but that is a matter of taste smile
Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Stefen,

Thanks for your support of my music.
Yes, I am still just learning and at my stage of life, I need to just run with what I've got.
As I said I've always hated my voice but, I guess it's good enough for what I do.....thanks.

Most of my songs have story or inspiration behind them and I'm pleased when somebody actually gets the message.

Thanks again for you kind words.

Thanks Misha,

A+ ? yikes.....now I've got nowhere to go but down.

I'wasn't 100% pleased with the Synth organ either but, it's done...time to move on.

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."
