Hello
First of all, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and that you continue to make beautiful songs with band in a box.
I started this song with a synthmaster sound containing an arpeggiator and midi chord generation. I added another one and a percussion loop. In the original style there was an acoustic bass which I replaced with a realtrak funk bass and I removed the organ to put in an electric piano.

Style : _BEACHES.STY (Beaches Moelleux Bossa Nova)

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.

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

A pleasent smile. That's what this beautiful piece sounds like to me, Laurent. After it opens with the start of the smile, it widens to tell the story of why it is so pleasent. It gets to hear this beauftul music you created. Thanks for sharing this beautiful story, and Merry Christmas to you.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hello Laurent,

It's a great song with a nice atmosphere.
I can definitely feel the flavor of French music in the melody and the chord progression.
I'm a big fan of French music such as Charles Aznavour, Michel Legrand, Francis Lai, and etc.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best Regards.

Hi Laurent,

What a lovely and peaceful piece of music this is. You have a very nice song that is well-arranged and well-produced. Your guitar solo was stellar! This is a true pleasure to listen to.

Happy New Year!

Well done again Laurent. You always manage to catch that 60s soundtrack vibe, this time (to me) suggesting a couple casually romancing by the sea, with either a sunset or a full moon with reflection in the visuals. I live a few minutes walk from the sea, but began my reverie imagining the beach at Calais, then I thought, "Oops, maybe not" as there's probably lots of tents there now, so I quickly switched to Cannes! smile I almost forgot: I loved your guitar work in that.

Thank you so much . You did well to choose Cannes because the sea air is much warmer there than in Calais. But don't forget your tanning cream.

We are nature folks and spend a lot of time outdoors mountain biking and hiking.
This lovely tune would fit well in so many of our experiences.
It is very cinematic and engaging and the BiaB choices along with your playing work great together.

Enjoyed it!

Thanks Floyd. Janice and Bud thank you also. I like to think that we are part of nature but how mysterious it remains, it is one of the charms of life.

Lovely, Laurent. This instrumental could have been a backing track for Françoise Hardy during the yé-yé wave.
