if Malay and Zayn locked themselves in the studio for some time, they would win a grammy.

Where is this passage in the actual recording? I love this little phrase, but couldn't find it after multiple listens.

Hey, MWTM, it would be incredible if you bring some Christian music producers in, such as Ed Cash, Gabriel Wilson (USA), André Aquino, Hananiel Eduardo (Brazil) and etc. The Christian music production has a lot to teach, even for those who aren't in this specific market. The creative process, the use of pads, layers, guitar tones, song structure and things like these found in CCM that are worth to pay attention.

God bless y'all!

I love this as an instrumental, but i think Zayn dropped the ball big time on this one. I would love to hear someone else do this tho!
