I'm an infrequent contributor here, but this topic was mentioned on the PG forums by Kevin, so I thought I'd add my $.02.

“When it comes to creating an ORIGINAL arrangement, that's not going to happen. I think we can dupe ourselves into believing that our song is nicely arranged or that it sounds like a unique song, because nobody has heard our song before.”

Really?

Every song on my Soundclick site was done with BIAB. “Original”? “Unique?” I don't know, but then I don't know just how 'unique' your songs are, because I don't see any links to them.

“But at the end of the day it's about having a great demo/production not having an easy time making one.”

To me, at the end of the day, it's all about the song. A good song will shine through any production, or lack of it.

“You don't need theory at all, not for writing or for playing...”

Okey Dokey.


To quote Mr. Schick:


“BIAB is just a 21st Century production tool. Only limited to the user's skill.”


+1.
