Man that sounds like typical summer in NC. So hot and humid you sweat just sitting in the shade.
Cool song. I liked what you did with the vox. And quite creative lyrically.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. 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.

Right out the gate, the percussion grabbed me—nice use of the RT Drums. Your lead vocals coupled with the vocaloid creates a really interesting sound that engages the ear more you listen. I’m wondering whether the vocals could sit back a bit more in the mix . . . but maybe not. A few folks have used the term “driving” to describe the tune . . . I agree . . . it really moves you forward. Like the abrupt end—fitting for the tune.
Good stuff!
All my best,
Deej Thanks Deej for your kind feedback Janne

“Lightning in my eyes and thunder in my head”
The above is one of many lines that grabbed our attention, Janne.
You have a good thing going here with yours, Kevin’s and Solaria’s vocals. It sounds good!
The mandolin solo reminded us of the “pitter patter” sound of rain.
Well done!
J&B
PS. We are surrounded by thunderstorms as we listen to this and we are hoping for some much needed rain.
Thanks Janice and Bud, I really appreciate your nice comment I hope you'll get enough rain, but not too much thunder (or headache after too many shots like described on the line you mentioned ) Janne

Cool stuff, Janne, the blend of your voice with the synth voice works really well I think.
Good song, enjoyed!
Thanks Dave for your kind comment, glad you liked the combination of my voice and Kevin's Janne

Hey Janne,
I thought I heard Thor was jamming the drums. Heavy sound and so other than your former songs. But so interesting. I liked all the vocals in it (your doubles, the AI woman) and together. When I saw that line: "we and meteorologists shall tilt the brimful cup" I think you had to to sing it a couple of times before getting it right, right? What a tongue breaking word for a non- Englishmen. and it would have break mine for sure. Sometimes I need some of these difficult words and I had to sing them over and over some 100 times before they sound right. How did you inform the AI lady to do this, or no, you sang it alone...
But about the summer. It isn't wet. It's dry and hot. Or not with you?
Love your song, Janne, Hans

Love your song, Janne, Hans Thanks Hans for your nice comment Glad you liked all the vocals. I usually sing along with the synthesized vocal track which I have already made, so the words come quite naturally even on the first try. Not too hot in here, yet. Not very wet either, but some rain showers recently. You've had record-breaking temperatures there? Maybe I didn't express it clearly enough, but "wet" in this song means more drinks than rain (well, this summer hasn't been "wet" either in this regard) Janne

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."
