This is a complete redo of another one of my older songs. This song was done for my son. Was especially missing him this year because of the Covid travel restrictions.

Verse One was the original midi files from the JLush style.
The midi files were played with Virtual Instruments from Studio One.
25. Acoustic Nylon
50. String Ensemble 2
1. Acoustic Grand Piano
33. Acoustic Bass.
These tracks were bounced to audio files after completion
Verse 2
Me
Each track was done with a piano but different voicings.
Piano
Strings
Bass
Verse 3
Was back to the midi files and the BBC vst
String Ensembles
Clarinets
Basses
These tracks were bounced to audio files after completion

Guitars
Gretsch Duojet and Gibson LP
Amp Marshall

Scott,

Nice atmospheric background. And your guitar sounds great set against that.

A cool tone and nicely played. A good mix.

Very much enjoyed this...

Butter smooth, lovely and THAT tone.

This would be a great submission for the sync libraries -- very cinematic.

Nice midi work -- from our limited perspective! Sounds good.

Cool idea with the instrument changes per verse.

Excellent!

Enjoyed this alot.
Did you mention your drum track? Great idea to keep it sparse.
Your own playing so clear...love those really high notes..like bells.
I liked your idea of making each verse "different" with instrumentation.

Floyd mentioned the atmosphere you created for the background: not only is it nice, but also an original sound and compelling to the ears.

And as always, great guitar work.

Scott,
Smooth playing! Unusual instrument arrangement. Beautiful guitar tone and interesting progression. I like everything but the drums. I think they are pushing the tune to faster pace in some places than I think you intended... Maybe I am hallucinating. Enjoyed it.
Thank you for sharing.


Misha.

Oh, this is so beautiful. Your son must be so proud of you. Beautiful playing, beautiful arrangement, stunning writing. "Evocative" is, I think, the word I'm searching for. Tells an evocative story and the listener is completely drawn in to listen. Thanks so much for sharing - loved it.

Tasty backing with a nice change of instrumentation. Great progression and a really nice melody. Adored the jump in octave. A very relaxing piece to just let slip the cares of the day.

Nice melody and great tone.
Your guitar is exceptionally smooth.
It's wonderful to try various combinations of MIDI instruments.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Hi Scott ...

So smooth and dreamy! Love the extra reverb on the guitar. You have a sweet touch and impeccable phrasing. What a terrific listen! An "eyes closed", wonderful tune. Thanks. Best to you. Stay well and be safe ...

Alan

Hello Scott,

I missed your song, I noticed. Sorry for that...
You made a very nice song for your son. Why the French title? (however I loved it)
The song has a very nice melody and you played the leadguitar very smootly. Well done!
It puts you at ease, even if you aren't in need of that.
The end of the song is a bit abrupt I think, but I think you did that on purpose, to wake us up again.

Best regards,
Hans

Thanks everyone again for checking out the song.

Hans the song title was kind of a test for my granddaughters. They were 8 and 10 at the time and took a year of French emersion in school. I was checking to see if they knew I wrote this song for there dad.

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."
