Hi all,
Philippe Janin has written the lyrics of this "slavic blues" and he sings.
Lyrics are very hard to translate. Even for french people, it's not easy to understand all. Sentences are very poetic and metaphoric.
To summarize the text, it's about four russian teenagers who are bored. If they don't find anything to hang on to, they will have a bad ending !

Waouh Chris ! C'est fantastique! J'ai pris le français au lycée mais j'ai lamentablement échoué.

En tout cas, la chanson est magnifique. Le piano et les guitares sonnent parfaitement l'un pour l'autre.

J'aime aussi les petites pauses, comme à :58 secondes. Très efficace!

Pour moi, c'est vraiment amusant d'écouter une chanson sans connaître la langue. Je peux en fait entendre la musique avec une mélodie humaine qui ne détourne pas l'attention de la chanson du point de vue des paroles.

Bon travail! Continuez à en faire plus.



(Just wanted to pay a compliment to Chris and try out some translation.)

Hi, Christian.

This is really good. The arrangement is excellent, and the interplay between the vocals and the solo guitar is really effective.

Most importantly, it showcases the vocals, which are first-class.

I like this a lot! laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Christian,

Another great composition . . . Phillippe slays on both the lyrics and the gravitating vocal. Really well done! Congrats to you both.

Cheers,

Deej

In any language this is a a wonderful song and very well sung. That cello really brings out the possibility of a sad ending. Really enjoyed, Chris & Phillippe.


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."
