This is a light remix of the track posted on 1st June 23 as the 2nd track in my original "Aya Rocks" YT video, this remix being posted on YT on 15th August 23. Long untitled, the original version of what is now "Aya Rocks V1" was my very first experiment in composing in Band-in-a-Box ~ rather than just creating rhythm tracks for songs I wrote in the 70s and 80s, which is why I bought BIAB in 2021 yet barely used it ~ and I began by just using 2 opening chords from one of my first 1969 songs, then I just let the flow take me.

Uplifting and enjoyable, I particularly like the piano, has a Bob Seger piano vibe.
Great job.

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.

Thanks for your very positive response, Bass Thumper.
I almost lost that piano sample when I accidentally deleted a file and I'd not frozen the tracks, thus when I tried for a new sample the regenerations weren't nearly as good. I now can't recall how I got the original back - I must have had a copy I'd forgotten about - but it's real magic when the samples come together!

WaoBand,
Super groove.
Great use of RTs.
Great mix.
This sounds like a live jam; great job on that.

Thanks Mario! One of the things that really impresses me about BiaB is that when the samples come together anyone unfamiliar with the program wouldn't know that it wasn't a real band playing.

cool instrumental. It does have a Bob Seger vibe to it in the beginning.

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.

Thanks Guitarhacker. I wasn't familiar with Bob Seger, but I've listened to some of his music now and you're right about the feel, as a previous commenter also mentioned.

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

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

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."
