One God with many names:

mishary bin rashid al-afasy+nissa sabyan (mix): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGxxORVTtRU&feature=youtu.be

I liked the original (Mishary Afasy's) with the exception of the little girl's voice. It just didn't sound right with everything there. I also very much liked the choir. Then, I searched for various versions of the song to see if there was one without the little girl's voice. I didn't find one but I found Nissa Sabyan and her voice is amazing. So, with no proper electronic version of this song out there (there's a rock one by the way; I thought of doing such a version too), I decided to have Nissa's voice instead of the little girl's.
I'm not fully satisfied with the result because I wanted to add more instrumentation which I didn't have that much inspiration for especially when I could not isolate the vocals. I had to leave the piano from Nissa's cover and the bass line from both versions even though this one was toned down.
It's basically my first vocal mix.

Started it some days ago. Finished it today.
