I would like to congratulate all the winners of the PG Music Showcase Awards. Your hard work has been rewarded by a great company that has proven once again that they support and appreciate the users of their product. And a great product it is! PG Music is relentless in their pursuit of music production excellence! I for one, don't take BIAB for granted. It's a vital part of my music work flow and would struggle to be creative without this software! The Showcase song postings are getting better each year and it's due not only to the talent of all of the fine songwriters posting their material, but also due to the great product that PG Music has made available to us. Thank you, Peter Gannon and all of the PG Music team for what you do and for this gift! Let's all have a great and productive 2022. T

I came across Band in a Box by chance via the DIGITECH TRIO+ BAND CREATOR.
When I then searched the internet for Hardrock songs made with the program,
I came across this forum. Ok, I didn't find many Hardrock songs here ;-))),
but many great songs from really good musicians. In a relatively short time
I felt in good hands here and also made some contacts with great people.
Band in a Box has fundamentally changed the way I make music.
And the opportunity to present your song in front of so many top musicians is just brilliant.

I want to thank PG Music for including me in the Top 45.
Of course it's a great feeling when your own work is appreciated.
Congratulations also to all the other winners - you deserve it.
And of course a thank you to all the other great musicians here in the forum.


Many greetings
Andi ;-)

I am honored and humbled to be included in the Showcase Awards. There are many outstanding musicians in these forums.

BiaB has kept me active in music. No other software can do that IMHO.

Many thank yous to Peter and the entire PGMusic staff. You all are amazing people.

The product is absolutely magical!! The forum members are absolutely wonderful!! And, I don't know what I would have done with my retirement had I not discovered both of these!! It is an honor to be recognized among a group of such talented and cool people!! Again, I want to give a big shout out to my friend Floyd Jane. Floyd was the first high level writer to give me such encouragement and guidance. He has been a consistent and inspiring force on this forum forever, for which I have nicknamed him "The Godfather of the forum" or "The Chairman of the Board" (yes I know I borrowed the second one from another musical phenomenon). It is wonderful to have the presence of such a wonderful and seasoned writer, one of the best I've ever been aware of!! I also would like to thank Al David for putting out so many instrumentals that inspire me to take off from there with my own ideas! Congrats to all of you wonderful and deserving folks!! Take care. Greg

Congratulations everyone!!!

While I haven't been as active in the forum for the last two or three years, I do pop in from time to time and listen.

I've heard songs from everyone in the Top 45 and you are all a really talented and very diverse bunch. You deserve this accolade!

All the very best,

Congrats to all winners! This was a difficult year for many people, but Showcase was definitely a bright and positive spot with some fantastic original compositions offered in all kinds of music genres. It had been my main musical inspiration place. Glad to be here.

Thank you so much, Mr Gannon.

I certainly did not expect to see my name on a winners list for a second time. It's an honour (and a surprise) to find I have been included.

I must confess I have not fully explored all the styles and sounds that were included in the previous Ultra-pak, but having read some of the comments of other users, I am keen to discover what's new on the 2022 version.

Thanks again and have a great new year.

Kind regards,

Brian Raynor

Doctor Peter Gannon and all of your staff at PG Music,

PG Music is the absolute GREATEST!
Thank you all so much.

BIAB is an unique and amazing product which I have been using for over 25 years since the MIDI-only era without RealTracks.
I'm very happy and honored to have been included in this year's awards.

And… Congratulations to all the other winners.

Best regards.

Thank you so much, Dr Gannon and everyone at PG Music. Without Band-in-a-Box, I, quite simply, would not be writing music. BIAB has been the catalyst to release my musical thoughts onto the external world, because, inter alia, it tremendously shortens the process between concept and execution. To then have such a contest which enables so many of us to be able to continue creating is the epitome of kindness on your part. Thanks so much, once more, and congratulations to every single person who makes music with BIAB. It is a joy to make music with such superb software, made by a company which obviously cares about its musician clients. Have a wonderfully creative 2022!

Dr. Gannon,
Thank you for your generosity, your products and for your outstanding teammates who are always cordial, knowledgeable and responsive. Band-in-a-Box opened new music vistas for us and for the past eleven years it has been along with our love of the outdoors a most enjoyable part of our life. During this time via the forum community we have made genuine enduring friendships with members and that alone is a wonderful award.

Dr. Gannon and the whole PG Music family...

I have said it a million times and it is more true today than ever - Band-In-A-Box is a miracle.
As demonstrated by so many of the comments above - it is Life Changing.
Nothing else like it in the world.
Every musician - any level, any genre - should own a copy.

The generosity of these "awards" is mind-boggling.
The feeling of community (family, really) of the forum is incredible. Heartwarming.
The friendships that blossom here are priceless.


The Showcase has grown SO much over the years.
It has always been a caring and nurturing place.
An amazing number of high quality writers and producers make it one of the best music sites on all of the internet.
Hopefully, that translates to more new users/customers - to allow the company (and software) to continue to grow long after we are all too feeble to continue making music ourselves (although BIAB makes it so easy, that may NEVER happen).


Congratulations to all of the award recipients.

THANK YOU!

Thanks so much to Dr. G and the PG music staff for this great award. I remember when I first discovered BIAB ten years ago, and I felt like I had stumbled onto the greatest software a home producer could own. It was truly a Eureka moment. Even now, the latest version still amazes me.

Congratulations to all the winners!

Dear Dr Gannon, dear PGMusic staff,

Maha and I are pleased and honoured to be among the 2021 winners, and we want to thank everybody at PGMusic so much for it.

Whenever I try to explain to friends what BIAB means to me, I get amazed looks. Because that’s what I tell them and that’s what it is:it is: The only software I cannot replace by any other app. The only software that can lift me up or at least divert me for hours, even when times are bad. It’s definitely something that I wouldn’t want to miss, maybe even couldn’t miss.

I gave up brooding over how in the world BIAB works long ago - especially the soloist function remains a sheer miracle to me.

I remeber that I was already stunned by version 1 of BIAB. But when I returned to it after many years I couldn’t trust my eyes and ears - what an incredible, yes: ingenious development. And waiting for the next version is still exciting, the feeling that I get when I can finally check the list of new features always reminds me a bit of how I felt on Christmas Eve as a boy smile ...

Beyond all those wonerful musical experiences this forum has brought me some very precious personal contacts and even friedships which I am incredibly grateful for.

I want to congratulate all the winners - I do know that most of you wouldn’t change a thing if there wasn’t such an award, but I’m sure you’re all proud that your work (and, heck, there are so many musical and lyrical gems being posted here) is being valued and cherished this way. Well, I am...

Do I have to say, ‘Keep on writing, producin and posting!’ ? Nah, I guess that nothing in the world could stop you anyway...

Take care everybody,

Stefan

Hello the gentle Team,

Congratulations to all those registered because they fully deserve it. I was pleasantly surprised to be included on this list, because following personal problems I haven't really been active since September 2021. I would like to thank the staff for their kindness and impartiality. Anyone who allows Biab to flourish should be taken even as a beginner. A special prize could be awarded to these promising people to encourage them to promote your wonderful software.

Kindly regard and Than you again

Thanks so very much to Dr. Gannon and his staff - to include the highly talented musicians who give PG Music the sound to work with. And then Dr. Gannon experts turn those sounds into the incomparable tools we, as users, are privileged to use to our hearts' content.

Band In A Box is so much more than a fabulous assembly of software. For many, it's a path from their bedroom or garage to the rest of the listening world. It's a vehicle that transports the cacophony of dozens of tunes stuck in our heads to to the instruments we play and then onto the audience. It dares us to use its various mechanisms to create something better than it's available collection of parts.

I'm delighted and honored to be a member of this list of wonderful creators of good music.

I would like to quickly comment on Greg Johnson's note of thanks. He mentioned my instrumentals often inspire him to ad lyric and vocal to them. even if my creations are reasonably good ... he turns them into magic and develops the real potential. Thanks, Greg ! I always say, and I mean it ... you are a song's best friend. And I'm happy to call you a good friend.

And Band In A Box introduced me to two of my very dearest friends - Stefan and Maha Nachstein - extremely talented folks from Germany.

Congrats to all. Didn't see a single person on the lisdt who doesn't deserve the honor. Best to everyone. Keep writing and picking.

To: Peter and all of the members of the PG Music Team,

First of all, thank you so much for your generosity and thoughtfulness in giving these marvelous gifts. I am humbled to be named along with the many talented composers, musicians, vocalists and lyricists on the list. As a writer and composer who sits alone in my little home studio, the challenges to create and produce my dreams in music are sometimes daunting. But BiaB has stepped in to fill a role that would require many other talented people to fill and many expensive hours to compensate for. I may possess the talent and creativity to build a house but unless I possess the tools and materials to get the job done properly I could never accomplish the task. This is exactly what BiaB does for each of the people on this list and so, so many more. I am grateful beyond expression for your insight into producing independent artist's dreams and the staff and musicians who make all of it possible!

Secondly, I add my congratulations to all of the great folks on this list...many of whom I admire as artists and now hold as friends and colleagues...this forum has become a valuable testing ground for our thoughts and creative urges...thanks to Band-in-a-Box!

Best Regards,
Dan Simmons (firesong)

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

There are other places you can listen to these songs too! Visit our User Showcase page to sort by genre, artist (forum name), song title, and date - each listing will direct you to the forum post for that song.

This page has SoundCloud built in, so it won't redirect you. We've also added the link to the Artists SoundCloud page here, and a link to their forum post.
