Hi folks. Here’s a new instrumental folk/pop track using the 2 guitars fingerpicking Realtracks style with as usual me playing the melody and solo sections,I used IKM Soniksynth for a nice change along with NI FM8 too. Enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/riccledy/frankies-storyR.

Very cool back track Rick. Loved the changes in tones from your synth. Well done.

Hi, "Riccled"...
There's a lot of driving, folksy energy in the guitars that roll on underneath your spare piano melody in "Frankie's Story". The harmonica adds a touch of lonely blues that complements the folk feel of your composition. But then, the introduction of the synth choir elevates the spirit of the piece to something more than it was at the beginning.
"Frankie's Story" has a surprising amount of musical character in it, even with only a minimum of instruments. Most of all, it sustains a journeying feel with the taste of a fading sunset on the horizon that is rather distinctive.
Thanks for providing such a brief, but involving musical experience, "Riccled"!
Sincerely,
LOREN
P.S. Also listened to your composition, "Trio for Three Vibraphones". Quite an other-worldly and sonically arresting piece of music, "Riccled"!

Nice work Riccled I like how it's almost unpredictable with you what the tune will sound like. Like the stripped down nature of the song. Proof that less is more sometimes. Great progressions, and it flows really well. Thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Cheers. R. Dear "Riccled"... Lovely to hear from you, too! I was away from the forum for five months and returned in September. I've probably missed a gang of your eclectic compositions, so I think I'll take you up on your invitation to visit your SoundCloud page. Sincerely, LOREN
