excellent rendition and a wonderful addition to this series.

This is soo sweet, very beautiful guitars :)

Lovely guitar - especially the duel playing - reminds me a little of Lizzy. Wonderful stuff. A worthy addition. 

Ahhh nice!!  I like the guitar addition to the song.  Well done!! 

I think that is a perfect description Adil added a new and dynamic voice!!!!!!!!! Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to thank Adil for this superb interpretation of the song, his Fender brings a new and dynamic voice to the project. :)

Recording date: April-May, 2013

This is a part of the collaboration project initiated by Ian Melvin, which is - to create different versions of the song "IF I KNOW YOU" in other languages. It's a beautiful love song written and composed by Ian Melvin. Please do check out the song.

In the meantime, I thought it would be fun to record an instrumental version on Guitar too. [ excuse the noise from my dear fender :P ]

In this version, I have followed Cindy Eichardt's fantastic vocal part in the Intro & Outro. So Thanks to - 
Ian Melvin for his kind invitation and this fun project,
Milana for the amazing piano track.

All the songs on this cloud are original compositions of mine.  Sometimes in collaboration with other SoundClouders.

Music is a kind of kaleidoscope, although it manifests itself on an incomparably higher level of ideality. Music produces beautiful forms and colours in ever more elaborate diversity, gently overflowing, sharply contrasted, always coherent and yet always new, self-contained and self-fulfilled. Eduard Hanslick 1854

I am a married father of two, grandfather of four, fine arts graduate and polymath.

I had been asked to commit my songs to recording for the benefit of my offspring, and also I guess before I go completely deaf (Yes. I am one of the 1 in 7 severely deaf people in the UK) so begins this project. 

However, as I have gotten into it I realize that I have a lot of new stuff bursting out all the time, much of it inspired by you good people on Sound Cloud. 

Collaborating has been a revelation and I want to do more and as much as I can, so if you hear anything of mine you like and/or have any ideas about production etc just drop me a line anytime.

My collaborative name is Eight Zeros and can be found here: http://soundcloud.com/eight-zeros and on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/eight8zeros

I would at some point like to work with someone to develop my own and hopefully your songs as an acoustic vocal duo so if you are geographically near and interested please get in touch.

Recordings were made first on a Boss Micro BR, then on an iMac running Garageband'11, inputting through a Behringer 1204 USB mixer and using a Rode NT2A for voice (Behringer C1 condenser mic for voice up to April 2013) and an AKG1000S for guitars. From January 2013 I have upgraded software to Logic pro 9. My weapon of choice is a Martin 00015M, with Martin SP Light's mostly recorded open though sometimes via Fishman Rare Earth Blend.
