Don't Hesitate  -  Vocal n Drums.wav

This is a really special song to me. It features one of the greatest young talents on Soundcloud in the Jazz Vocal genre: Irina. It is an honor for me to have her feature on this Latin original, written for her with her beautiful additions in vocal melody and lyrics. I hope you’ll enjoy this as much as I do...

Latin Streets

I love to walk these streets
Look up to washing lines
Like sketches in the skies
In the skies
And all these fragrances and sounds
And all these stories of love profound
The love I found
All around

Whenever fortune brings me back to you
Colourful spring or winter hue
You brighten up my blues
I paint a picture of your purple skies
Embellished with those lantern lights
Enchanting starry nights.

Oh let me take you there
Barrios, streets and squares
Let me take you there
Just you and me
Just me and you
 
And there will come a time
The time our feelings will have aged like ruby wine
Sweet and fine
Those old and curvy and narrow streets
Will bring back vivid memories - 
Flamenco beat
Sultry heat.

The dancer’s gorgeous woven wavy dress
Breath-taking sounds of castanets
Gitanas sing their best.
Our hearts will stay forever linked to this
The magic moment of first kiss
Romantic sunny streets

Oh let me take you there
Barrios, streets and squares
Let me take you there
Just you and me
Just me and you
Take you there
Take you there
Just me and you

This wind ensemble version is scored for flute, oboe, English horn, Bb clarinet, bass clarinet, bassoon, French horn, C trumpet, trombone, and tuba. It is a challenging, even virtuosic foray into colorful and continually evolving instrumental combinations, unified by a highly rhythmic texture with moments of lyricism."

Very first collab with https://soundcloud.com/udiooy

ambiant background and atmosphere, final mix: Mrs Audioboy

I know why I wrote these lyrics.

no one will never really know someone
no one will never really know you
don't wait for that
cauz you gonna be disapointed

Appearances are hidding many things
in the dark, on your back
apprearances are hidding many things

you never really know someone
no one will never know who you are
under cover
no one recognizes anyone

you never really know someone
no one will never know who you are
you never really know someone

Blues instrumental. Music and all musical instruments - LeoMReznik. 
 Here I tried to recreate the old electric-lamp sound of instruments, as in those long-ago 60s, when I was in school and we played at parties.

I used a painting by the wonderful artist Alice Mayskaya:)

New Album out now! https://danielvandenberg.bandcamp.com/album/short-tales-for-three-guitars

This site is for my musical avatar or alter ego. Architect/partner/company owner by day, I find myself playing guitar and writing these tracks in afterhours, at nights, evenings, when in need of a dose of guitar sounds. You will find a wide range of guitar oriented music, ranging from Jazz to Blues, Flamenco to Classical, Rock to Fusion. And many collaborations with some great musicians.

I have been playing guitar since I was 11 years old, largely self-taught and have tried different styles and instruments: Renaissance lute, flamenco guitar, classical guitar, steel string guitar and electric guitar with which I have been playing in styles ranging from rock and metal in my early years to classical music, some American Folk music, jazz rock, prog rock, flamenco nuevo and fusion.

It’s been a splendid time here so far, in collaborating with a lot of brilliant musicians on SoundCloud and sharing ideas and the passion for music. 
My collaborations are with musicians that I have a deep respect for and have a mutual appreciation for real instruments, and musical styles that focus on letting the instruments “shine”. 

Here is some technical data:
Currently I am using Amplitube and Auria on an iPad as DAW with Final Touch for mastering. For acoustic recording I use an Apogee microphone.

Guitars are:
Fender AMERICAN ELITE STRATOCASTER® HSS SHAWBUCKER, 2016
Fender Stratocaster Squire (first edition: JV-series)
Ibanez JS100, Joe Satriani model
Evh Frankie Striped MN Relic R/W/B

EVH 5150 Series Standard Stealth Black EB guitar
Fender American Professional II Stratocaster HSS Olympic White RW
Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HSH 2PT CM Mahogany Natural
Paulino Bernabe, Taller de Guitarras, Model-50, 2001, classical concert guitar
Marín, Modelo Estudio /9 Calidad, 1997, Malaga, Spain, flamenco guitar
Joan Cashimira, modelo 145, spruce top w/ cocobolo sides and back, Gata de Gorgos (Alicante), 2015

I hope you will enjoy my music.
