Who is the artist and what is the track name?

I know it's 'someone' featuring 'someone' but that dosn't help on google.

have heard it on JJJ a few times but can't find it on Jplay.com.au


if you know this track, you'll know it...

:D Cheers Was unsure if to have a smaller velocity and turn the channel up. Whatever suites i guess are you useing hdw ? general rule is record stuff as hot as you can and then you can turn it down. Thus avoiding the noise floor and utilising the nicer range of your pres. Sfw dosn't matter so much.
