https://soundcloud.com/spontaneousgroovincombustion/tune-1 Tune-1 was built around a little seven note sax riff I stumbled upon while practicing. This is my very first production with PG Music software. I would love you to suggest a great name for this tune! Café des Amis was one thought. All tracks are RealTracks with the exception of MIDI acoustic bass and my six tenor sax tracks. The Basic style was Jazz Fred I believe. Other than BIAB/RB, only Audacity was used for a dash of post-mix editing (crop, Amplify, Fade Out). The 10-band EQ and PG Reverb were used on most tracks, with a dash of Chorus/Echo on the sax solo only. Thanks very much for listening!
Best, Warren

I think the name you have chosen fits really well.

Great job, Warren - especially for your first production with Band-in-a-Box  There's some interesting riffs in there, and the mixing job you did sounds on point! I like the name you suggested for this tune as well. It is definitely suiting. Thanks so much for sharing, and I can't wait to hear more from you!
Cheers,
Deryk

I can't thank everyone enough for taking the time to provide their positive feedback and inspiring me to press on to the next tune! Thanks to you Deryk, and Kent for helping me through some RealBand issues. Scott C, I know the curse of autocorrect. ;>) Feel free to leave a new comment at Soundcloud- I accidentally deleted what showed as duplicate entries there. Thanks again everyone, most kind.

Great first rendezvous with BiaB! I can definitely see the cafe or lounge-y feel to this song and think that the name you picked quite suits the tune.  Can't wait to see more from you.
Cheers,
Ember

Charlie, I thank you and brother Jim Fogle, Doug Wolf, and other forum members for helping me learn these programs. I'm in a pretty good place with them now, but still learning. Made good progress on Tune-2 today. Thanks again everyone, I appreciate the kind comments! It feels good to hear them after such a long hiatus from creating and performing music.
Best, Warren

Welcome! Irrespective of genre the sax has always been one of our favorite instruments...always reminding us of a vocalist (or perhaps it's the other way around ). Nice playing, mix and choice of backing tracks. Tune-1 is a cool name for, well, the first tune posted. We enjoyed the spin! J&B
