Thanks for your kind and positive feedback smile Nowadays I don't do much tweaking with effects, although in this one I used Neutron 3 for bass and drums to give them some spark.

Hi Janne,

A cool song! Nice bass in a funky song.
And you sang it with conviction! The lyrics give spirit to live your life how hard it can be.
It is always a pleasure hearing your songs. They have something familiair now, because of your way of singing, but still are also very creative when it comes to the angle you choose.

Nicely done Janne!

Super creative and catchy. Love the various textures and overall musicality.
One of your best vocals and I liked the backing synth vocalists.

Really nice in all aspects.

Starts off like a funky cover of Go Ask Alice but that changes when the vocals begin.
I reckon the vocaloid harmonies could be pulled down a little at the beginning so your main vocal holds court OR pull your main vocal from the choruses and let those treated vocaloids float... there are some very slight variations in pronunciation between you & them.
Lovely message.


Cheers

Thanks Ray, I appreciate your kind comment smile Pronunciation differences are inevitable when it comes to my mouth, but there can be also variation between vocaloids (Brit & american accent).

Love the funky opening. When the vocals started ("life wins") it wasn't what I expected, but it fit into your song quite well. Catchy pop, Mr. Popfinger.

Janne,

Nice groove to this . . . an ear worm feel to this. Very imaginative song and production that works its way in the more the song plays. Like the high harmony you have going on, really resonates. Is that high harmony a live singer or auto-generated? If the latter, it sounds like the former. If the former, nice job by your vocalist. Yeah, the more I listen to this the more I’m digging it. Great solo—perfect ending!

All my best,

Deej

Thanks Deej for your heart-warming words smile Glad you felt the ear worm, and that it is even growing on you smile Harmonies are computer generated singers, nice to hear that they are not distracting you.

That flower is called zinnia, the picture is taken in my mother's garden.

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."
