Love the strong drive of this. That chord progression on the chorus is really cool ... as well as the tempo change. And then it came back in full force. A real nice selection of RTs. Very nice done and a super listen. Nice work!

rcarver,
if this is what you put together after you have run out of gas, I'd really like to know what your songs sound like once you got a tiger in your tank...
Awesome - love it from A-Z, but that slowing down and sneaking into the harp solo is really smart.
All the best,
Stefan

Hi Randall,
Top notch production all round.
I couldn't believe you made the 3210 Harmonica work in a song - but you did and it works well,
I particularly liked how you slowed this section down and then returned to the main beat.
Mix - great.
Well done.
Best Regards Nigel

A creditable amount of ingenuity on display here. You seem to have made an ostensibly gasless track run remarkably well on the proverbial "smell of an oily rag." Great use of tempo to shift gears. I like it.
My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile

Excellent production. Great write. Wow, exciting dynamics. Cool tempo change that bounces back with the harmonica. Really fine direction; those BiaB folks sound like they were there when you wrote it. Love those baritones.

User Tip: How to add drum fills without changing any other tracks
MarioD has shared some great advice when it comes to adding drum fills without changing any other tracks in your song:
There have been a number of questions asking how to add drum fills without changing any other tracks in a song. This is especially important if one is holding a chord for a few measures and wants to add a drum fill prior to the next chord. The following is how to accomplish that:
1-get the instruments/tracks to play like you want but don't worry about the drums for now.
2-generate the song.
3-freeze all tracks
4-unfreeze the drum track
5-add your fills where you want them
6-generated the song again - note this will only generate the drum track and not the frozen tracks
7- when you get the drums like you want them freeze the track

Read his thoughts on the Download & Install Manager, partial track regeneration, Playable RealTracks, Audio Editing, the addition of SynthMaster, the VST DAW Plugin, and more!
"Band-in-a-Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource.
