Delicious sounding guitar tone...Such an ambient glow to this one! Lush, Fresh & Invigorating!

Crystal clarity swift moving licks! So crazy good Dear Dan XOXOXO

I am there and it’s a wonderful place to be, tops gents!

Definitely a great top-down track to groove to sailing on the super slab. Some great high-octane playing on electric and keyboard, the speeds are breathtaking.

brilliant performance...every one of your tracks blow my mind

Time

The message in this song is that there is strength in numbers, one voice by itself may not be heard, but a million voices must be heard. One raindrop by itself is lost but when million come together they form the mighty seas. I wanted to get a live feel from this song so i recorded the vocal and the guitar live in 1 take on my Zoom X5 then transferred the WAV file to the DAW where i put in some atmospheric voice synth, some acoustic Bass and some percussion. its one of the longest songs i have recorded as i generally believe that most people won't listen more than 3 minutes but hopefully there is enough in here to keep interest,  i really hope you like it and to help here are the words.


One voice in the wilderness, 
one raindrop falls from the sky 
One soul lost in the darkness,
 One tear drop falls from an eye 

Two voices join together and sing in harmony 
Two raindrops join together help to form  the sea 
Two souls finds each other floating in the sky 
Two tear drops fall together as somebody starts to cry 

3 voices shout for freedom all for one and one for all 
3 Raindrops turn to snow drops as they gently fall 
3 souls on the ground fell the gentle Snow 
3 tears freeze like icicles on the world below 

4 voices sound so beautiful as they together sing 
4 raindrops paly a magic scale as the church bells ring 
4 souls move together in perfect harmony 
4 tear drops cry for you and for me 

5 voices become a quire voices of all pitches 
5 Rains drops fall and form a stream running in the ditches 
5 souls join together to become a might forces 
5 tear drop fall full of remorse

Together we are  Stronger (There's strength in numbers)

Diamond Gotti- Suit In the Grave

It's been a while since eddyoffline and I did a collab.  Mostly because he's always offline.  This one finally came together though.  I have never really played Reggae before and it shows. Thanks to eddy for sending me this track.  He plays an awesome bass in this as well as a solid rhythm guitar to hold things together.

Summer Drive on the Highway with some Spanish Devil

This tune is like a easy summer drive, or so it seems… Along the way there are some twists and turns and an encounter or two with some speed devil on the highway. Also the title hints on a famous tune by one guitarist who used to play in Return to Forever, some of you will know. ;)
And there is also that short but intense race with a Norwegian devil, William Paasche. He plays a quirky, super groovy keyboard solo. Do check his work here on SoundCloud, he’s amazing! https://soundcloud.com/snuppeluppen

By the way, I am using my brand new Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HSH 2PT CM Mahogany Natural guitar on this one! 

As always I really appreciate all your likes, comments and shares.
All the best,
-Dan

I will pretend to have a soul
On the days that I am wholly hollow

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.
