Sgt Peppers ... the lost cut.

Epic in scope and a fine listen.

The amount of thought and creativity that went into this is quite obvious.

And mixing it would be waaaaay beyond our mix pay grade smile

The transitions are very cool as are the vocals and the write.

A FUN listen!

Some call us "fringe dwellers", some call us "deep thinkers", some just call us "mad".
Artistic souls of all persuasions IMO are wired differently to the mainstream and I suspect that your good self is also part of this happy little creative milieu.
Kajun we have not previously "spoken" so your very kind words are touching and meaningful to me.Thank you.
Regards
Gary.

Hi Gary
Very creative and interesting arrangement that kept me engaged throughout (although I was a little sad that your protagonist hit the skids and fell into the covers trap there at the end).
Regards,
Leon

What an exciting and novel piece of work this is! Your arrangement is simply stunning in its blending of the popular musical genre of hip-hop with orchestral writing. It's the product of high imagination and creative passion, I'm sure. It possesses the ambience of many well-known attempts at combining classical forms with pop music, such as The Beatles' 'Good Day, Sunshine', 'Yellow Submarine' and 'Strawberry Fields Forever'. Your mix is big and expansive; it sounds as though it was recorded in a concert hall. The fact it's all BIAB should be an inspiration to all of us User's Forum members. It is for me!

Please accept my enthusiastic applause and amazed appreciation of your song, 'The Musician'!

I am very touched by your lovely words. I love to push, pull, prod, disect, reconstruct,experiment and generally have fun with my music. Mistakes and happy accidents are part of the process and I must confess that the bulk of my creations are total trainwrecks. I should compliment biab for being such a powerful musical resource and I sometimes wonder why its wealth of musical assets are not widely exploited.But I digress.
Again, thankyou for your beautiful words.
Regards
Gary.

Hi, Gary. i had to stop back and tell you some of the comments I had from others that aren't on this forum. "Wow, right?" This guy knows." "This is *bleeping* awesome." "A brilliant version of my history." If you ever get around this way, there will be many ice-cold beers on your table.


Enjoy whatever happens!

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."
