Hi Alain & Di,


I'm not a specialist in this style but it's very pleasant and Di's lovely voice lends itself wonderfully to the lyrics. I appreciated.

And especially nice to hear Di do her thing. Love her tone, and that really fast vibrato she has, very cool.

Great track, nice groove and well mixed.

Enjoyed!

Hi DFave ...

Well, thank you so much! Di enjoyed reading your comments - as did I. It put a smile on her face! Thanks for all the great words. We appreciate it!

HI Bob ...

You are much too kind! We certainly appreciate such encouraging comments. Di is very sad she can no longer sing as she once did. Again, many thanks ...

In the past you wrote she sang, but i never heard it. Well, she really had/has a amazing voice.
And therefore this remix can be seen as a statue for her as well (I would say).

Google translate couldn't translate the 'cheesy' line, so I'm still searching on the internet for an explanation ;-)

I also have the opportunity to master my songs on Soundcloud (4 songs free per month). I tried some, but changed them for my own mastering.
Except for one song (Emily). I didn't like the result so much. But maybe that can change

Will you say 'Hi' to Di in return?
Hans



Han ...

Nice of you to drop in for a listen. DI and I were thrilled to read your comments. That was very nice of you.

The word "cheesy" is an American slang term for something that is a bit hokey. Kind of silly and not done with any amount of sophistication.

Again, thank you for the kind comments.

Alan

Not much to say. I just sat back and enjoyed. Bravi, the two of you. Exactly what I needed tonight - once more, from you. Can't praise it enough.


Hello James ...

I always look forward to your encouraging comments. And, as always, you put a smile on my face. Di's face, too! And yes, her voice is pure gold, in my estimation - trying not to be too biased. Many thanks, my friend!

We love the entire band but the standouts are Di's vocal (obviously) and the flute.

She delivers the perfect vocal for the bossa groove and you mixed it to perfection.

A big ole fashioned, AWESOME!

J&B




HI Janice & Bud ...

Those very kind words warmed our hearts. AT first, I wasn't extremely happy with the flute - refreshed it countless times. But, the more I listened this particular rendition, the more I liked it.

Your kindness and generosity with alwats touch us in a good way. Thank you so much.

The instruments sound so real, I can't picture someone pushing a button to generate them. In fact, I had to go back and see if RealTracks had a flute, or if someone had played that for your recording. How cool is that?

Di-loved the vocal. It was absolutely perfect for this song! Big love to that! And..."hi" back to you! smile

Al-It may have taken a little finessing, but I know you know this, many songs you have to do something wink. I think it's so cool you you had the skills to be able to work with it like you did.

I thought the mastering sound good too. Loves me that bass! For this style, it HAS to be represented. And it was!

All the way around a really fun listen that honored the genre so well.

Thanks for the late morning workout! smile




Hi Aaron ...

What a nice song - love those chord progressions in the chorus part. Very well re-built, Alan - nobody could ever imagine that this wasn't the original version.

Di, your voice is absolutely gorgeous and your phrasing is second to none - just sublime.

I would like to hear more of your 'old stuff' - it's been such a treat to listen to.

What a crying shame, what an immense loss, dear Di, that your health issues prevent you from singing these days.

Please stay safe and take good care of each other,

Stefan



Stefan

Because of the friendship Di and I have enjoyed with you and Maha, we always look forward with anticipation for your thoughts and comments. And you are so very nice with your words! Redoing this with BIAB wasn't as difficult as I thought would be. It took me about 8 - 10 hours from beginning to finished and posted. It's a little different from the original, but we like it even more.

We hope you and Maha are doping well. We know she is facing some serious issues and how it affects you. We think of you guys every day. And you, too - take care of each other.

Alan & Di

Loved the entire experience.

All the best to you both and be sure to tell Di how much I love her voice and wish her the best with her health.

Hi ROG ...

Thank you for the really nice comments on the song and the well wishes for Di. We appreciate both very much.

Di has a distinctive delivery in her vocal style. I agree that the quality of her voice is excellent. But she has a unique approach to phrasing and lyric interpretation. As she says, she has a "freestyle" approach to musical interpretation. She generally a shy, quiet person ... until you put her in front of a microphone. The she just lets her voice take control.

Thank you!

Alan

Al-David and Di:

I’m a little late to the party on this one, but glad I made it here. What a wonderful tune! Love that flute solo. And Di’s vocal is so, so stellar—sits so sweetly in the mix; just lovely. I’m amazed at your ability to redo the music in BIAB and pair it up with an earlier recording—that takes a lot of talent (and would be a near impossible task for me). Very impressive work here and no surprise the original got accepted.

My best to you both,

Deej

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."
