Mike, the drums were generated by BiaB with Addictive Drums 2 - preset Funk-Bone Funk. Secret sauce = Waves - CLA drum effects.

I use the CLA effects on all of my drum tracks. I find that they bring them alive. YMMV

Enjoyed it and the cool title!

Thanx J&B. I am a little surprised by the number of forum members that like this. I was expecting a lot fewer comments. I am not complaining though.

This was strange. It was a little harder to come up with a lead line with all of those Dim7 and AUG chords. You can blame BiaB for the groove. Thanx for the guitar and B3 comments.

It's good to hear stuff like this from time to time, to make us think

Cheers, ROG.


Rog, as you well know that with BiaB and some imagination one can come up with just about anything.

I'm not sure you can create a "crowd pleasing' work that relies so heavily on diminished changes, as you've done...but that isn't the point.

Your exploration reveals lots of different ways that this special chord can be used to advantage..and I think you two gave the 'dim' chords everything you could in this!

Looking forward to what musical curiosities you decide to attack next!


Thanx. It was hard to come up with a lead for this one. Sometimes those 'dim' chords were called those 'damn' chords will working on this!

Thanks for sharing. I've never heard anything quite like this before and you gave me a lot of food for thought!

All the best,

Well sometimes the mix, composing and instrumental work isn't so well done. As most people I have my ups and downs. As I mentioned with BiaB and a little imagination one can come up with just about anything.

A lot of folk forget, just how talented the posters are who play and add to their own songs.


Not only do they have to write the piece,Arrange , mix and master it.

They perform as well.

Enjoyed this. Thanks.


I'm not necessarily all that talented. I just love to play. Plus sometimes I do have a very warped sense of humor. Thanx for the comments.

Nice groove!

Robert, you just gave away our secret; we are just a couple of guys jamming away and yes we both enjoy it.

Thanx for listening and comments.

In this case, wouldn't that be a diminished enjoyment of music? wink

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

Nice one Mario. When I click to play your latest song it never fails to take me by surprise! This one is intriguing and a great exploration of the dusty reaches! Off to listen again; I'm sure I missed a lot first time around.

Well, you and Jon certainly did not diminish the quality of the song by stripping out BIAB Style parts. The originality of each of your parts certainly augmented to the overall arrangement and performance. Enjoyed this a lot.

The opening bars reminded me a bit of Player's "Baby Come Back"

Mario,
Interesting tune.
Always wonder how you and JonD get going with your tunes, do you jam as if live or get the rhythm going and then you do your bits? cool

Whatever ... an interesting piece. I like it a lot as I like dim and aug chords myself.
