I need any resources to get mp3s or Cd or anything related to "Amir Haddad" I have "Understanding flamenco... " is the another things for him ? realy I begin to love his soul in the guitar, great falsetas in great flamenco soul
Hi Ziryab, I met Amir here in Scotland a few months ago. He is currently playing Oud with "Radio Tarifa" as well as playing some accompaniment work in Madrid. The bits of playing you hear on "Understanding Flamenco" are from compositions he's doing for a solo album. He told me it's practically finished, and he's looking for a record company who would be interested in releasing it. I love his playing too! He's a really original composer. I had a go myself at his Buleria intro earlier this year. It's uploaded into the Audio Uploads section of this Forum. I found the timing pretty tricky, as you'll no doubt hear!
I stumbled across this thread as I googled Amirs' name...
If you are interested to listen to some mp3 demos of his CD you can visit my site... it is only in german but there should be no problem to find the clips under "Tonstudio>downloads"... El Jaleo Flamenco!
I engineered and produced this CD, so any feedback regarding the sound is welcome
In the meanwhile AMir has found a company that will distribute his album in 26 countries...not a bad deal, it seems
I'll be the first in line to get Amir's CD! The guy has got a great ear for composition being mainly an Oud player. Those Moorish/Arabic tones just get me.. Can't wait!!
Just wanted to keep you updated that Amir#s CD will be out in April 2006, however there will be a first edition available before X-mas at Mundo Flamenco
