This new version of the "Deya Flows" chord structure is totally different to the previous variations, plus it's 50% shorter at 4:15, and I trust will make the listener want to dance … and care … and heck, love, too.
As this is a music video I've this time only used one new Deya-themed image.

I can't post the YouTube link as I keep on getting that the owner, me, has prevented sharing, which I haven't as it viewable on other sites!

Can anyone help?
I checked on FB and the YouTube video is viewable on 2 pages there. So I next logged-in to YT and there's nothing saying that the video can't be shared, but there is one major anomaly: when I go to the Details of any video I can't edit anything, which I've always been able to do. It might just be a YT glitch, or I may have a hacker. I'll post the link here to see what happens: IT IS VIEWABLE IF YOU CLICK ON THE VIDEO![size:17pt][/size]

Cool island feel, Chay. Love the changes, and, man, you packed a great bunch of instruments in there. I can't help upi out with a name for the second soloist; I can olny say it fit so well. Lovely all around.

Love the energy you built and sustained throughout. Not easy to do with the long solos. I'd suggest trying the ending with a C chord rather than an F, since that would match the tension-resolution used throughout the song and be more pleasing for the listener. Might just be me though. Great work!

Thanks for the response, DC Ron. That final bar is actually F to C.

That is a mashup of seemingly disparate genre tracks but it works well ... very well.
And the number of tracks? Way above my mix pay grade smile
However you managed to give them the open/airy vibe we like. Not dense and good dynamics.

Well done!

Great groove!
Great mix, I'll bet that took a long time.
I really like the instrumentation. At first glance one would think how is this going to work! But you did a splendid job on that!
It reminded me of my cruise to the Caribbean; thanx for the flashback.
I really liked this version.

Thanks Mario! Everything I do in BiaB takes time, but particuarly when I try out different versions of a composition. In past decades I'd have never written a song in which I couldn't hit hit the notes, so BiaB opened up composing for me, and as I can't sing where I live due to neighbours even older than myself I've really gotten into instrumentals and using chord sequences which if they had lyrics I couldn't sing. What I've discovered this year is that the intial chord structure is all important as without good sequences the BiaB samples added just don't hit the mark. I've had to give up on a recent one as it just wasn't working and there's been a couple which were delayed by weeks as there was just one chord in the flow which didn't sound right, even though theoretically it should have. I've been surpised that on the forum I've had a few comments about the number of tracks, but back in the day 16 was almost a default, while now manufacutred pop has oodles. For me, BiaB is like painting with music!

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.

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."
