Hello everyone ;-) The song DIVIDED BY LIES was written because of the fact that in the last almost eighteen months of the pandemic, most people around the world have been lied to and deprived of their freedoms by their governments. The attempt to divide people into two classes is now the next chapter in a failed policy. I hope you like the song, which was created entirely with BiaB 2021: Listen to DIVIDED BY LIES it came out of nowhere and they made it so big their true face now appeared life now consisted only of fear (echo) now there is there is only one truth for all and this truth is enforced by all means to stay in control hey you out there please don't put up with everything we cannot accept it now to be divided by these liar kings to lose a loved one and no goodbye allowed we will never forgive them again they broke the laws and we cried in the rain (echo) and that means there is only one way out be honest at last you need no cash but ONE folk repeat it but loud All the best and please stay healthy Andi ;-) ****** Song Summary ************* Title: Divided by Lies File:DividedByLies.SGU Key=C , Tempo 115, Length (m:s)=3:34 No intro. 101 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 101.

Andi,
You get a LOT out of BIAB! A great driving Rock sound.
Good vocals. Good mix.
The cymbals are a little too prominent for my tastes. Dropping the high EQ would correct that. But, of course, that is a personal preference on my part. Some folks might like that abundant cymbal sound...

Thanks, Floyd. I was surprised myself how well BiaB is suited for hard rock. However, in most projects the weak point is the solo guitar and often the rhythm guitar. But what the heck, that's what guitarists are for ;-) Thanks for your feedback Andi

This is extremely well-produced considering you only used BiaB. That part I liked a lot! The lyrics is your opinion... don't know if I agree with you there... but well... we are here for the music... Will

Hi Will. Thanks for your feedback. Yes, two of my former band members didn't want to believe me that BiaB calculated the song. It's so cool ;-) Many greetings Andi ;-)

HOT!! What an amazing demo of what this great software can do, Andi. Expertly crafted band, and maybe your 2 doubting bandmates are just worried about their jobs. hehe Oh, wait, you said "former." Keep 'em coming, man. I also poked around some of your other material, and enjoyed the ride. Hey, welcome to the forum!!

Hi Marty You are really cool. Thanks for your great feedback. You are right. If the guys would still play in my band they would have to work really hard not to be replaced by BiaB ;-)))) Many greetings Nice to be here Andi ;-)

Hello Nigel Thanks for the great feedback The singing I had honestly imagined something different However, I had to realize that I could not sing the melody for the chorus at all ;-)))) So I had to improvise a little bit. Thanks a lot and many greetings Andi ;-)

Love it. A song that speaks truth. I'm with you 100% on that.
Musically.... Pretty good hard rock out of BB.
Nice
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hello Scott thanks for your feedback I'm very happy that you like the song Hard rock / Heavy Metal with 100% BiaB doesn't work for many songs. But with Divided by Lies I succeeded in making the song halfway believable. Many greetings Andi ;-)

Hi Andi, Wow, yeah this song rocks! Divided by Lies speaks the truth brother, so much truth. Musically, it sounds to me as if you have blended The Scorpions with Nirvana. This is Big sound, BIG SOUND musically and lyrically!

Hello Bawb Thanks for your great comment Yes it is really bad and at least here in Germany it is getting worse and worse. The song is more relevant than ever. I made a video about it as well. But I can only show that among friends, because here in Germany. no second opinion on this subject is tolerated. You have to imagine that. This is not North Korea, Russia or China. This is really happening right here in Germany and many other "free democratic" countries. Many love greetings Andi ;-)

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."
