Thanx for listening and commenting Vic. I'm sure that criminal's heart was fluttering!


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

The lead synth gives your song a very nice John Carpenter feeling.
Good stuff.
Very good for a horror movie!

This would make a great candidate for film/tv placement via the sync libraries.

It could work for a host of scenes from sci-fi, to fantasy to medieval scenes and more.

Foreboding and spooky it is.

As always your performances on multiple tracks are amazing.

I never thought about a medieval theme before but you are right. This could be used as the armies march toward each other just before the big battle.

Thanx for listening and commenting.

The synths give it a very Jean Michel Jarre vibe.

Add some theremin and you've got it! wink

Fun listen.

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

I like it dark. Especially chocolate.

The darkness is what makes this fascinating to my ears (that and it being a darn good composition)

One of my favorites.

String him up, Hoss!

Mario,
Cool tune. Intro sucks right in. Very neat textures. Yep, as others mentioned has strong Jarre feel (which is a good thing)
You know what I think can be interesting, if you add a second parallel melody of higher pitch woodwind.
Smooth listen. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Mario,

The song is exactly what the title says.
It can be used immediately as a soundtrack for movies with such content.
Great selection of VST instruments.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi, brother !


I´m lucky to have
escaped that march
at least for the moment ? uh !

You are right on the spot
with these notes it really
feels creepy but at the
same time it is mighty sublime !

A masterpiece that could go
very nicely in a film !

Cheers
Dani

Great sounds Mario! Like I have said before, I'm a huge fan of cinematic sound traks. I have written a few in my early days of music making.
Loved it.

Very cool tune Mario. Boy did you get some cool sounds from your keyboard. I dabble with mine in spurts. Very creative. One walk I would not want to take.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

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."
