Thanx Brad. Yes it does look like I could have picked a better title for this song.

Beautiful piece Mario. Very nice listen. The nylon string arpeggios were really cool. Harp like. Love the quote from Joe Friday. :-)

Ok. One of your best, straight from the off. The low flute is just magic, and the orchestration sublime - and I mean that. Pure magic, purely sublime. Forget alpha waves, this is a theta or even delta wave creator. Superb.

The B major modulation at around 2:10 ... ahhhhhh :-)

and the return to D major at 2:30 :-)))

Is this track for sale, anywhere? I'd pay for it, honestly. I've had a busy, stressful day, and this calmed me down on the spot. And no wonder, since it's so well written, produced and performed. I'm just going to have to bookmark the link and come back to it, right? :-)

Sincerest, sincerest congratulations.

Mario,

Beautiful (as are all your new-age offerings).

Excellent job with the controller.
The nylon sounds good (well recorded!)

Good mix.

Magical, mystical, ethereal, tranquil. Deserves a place on a soundtrack. Well done.


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 smile

Thanx Scott. Recording that nylon string was a challenge.

Thanx for this fantastic review, I really appreciated it.

Just DL the song, no need to purchase it. If you can't DL it just give me a PM and I will send it to you.

Thanx Floyd.

I used a cheap piezo pickup on my $79 USD nylon guitar. The original sound was very thin and tinny. It took EQ and reverb to get it sounding like it does unplugged.

Beautifully done! This could be used as a soundtrack for a scene in a period piece, lovers in the twilight.

Mario,

Yes, I am old enough to get it! Man do you know how to create a beautiful piece of music! The soundscape created here just carries the listener away to another place, and a good place I might add! I love every part of this!

Thanks, Torrey

You drag a good net Mario.
This is a good one - you've come to grips with life without the wind controller.


Cheers

So pretty and soothing.
I've only been lost in the woods once.
Otherwise I loved walking in the woods.
when I lived in TN. Down here I'd
be afraid the gators would get me.
Just lovely.

Thanx so much Torrey for those very kind words.

Thanx Ray. I'm slowing coming to grips with that pedal board. Right now it is about 65% live and 35% editing but I'm sure with more practice that will improve.

Thanx Josie.

We used to take walks in the woods but since my wife broke her femur right near the hip (they still called it a broken hip) walking is hard for her. We don't have gators up here, the taxes are too high for them!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

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."
