Another good one, as a fan of instrumentals. Very tight bass and Drum mix. Guitar as usual has excellent tone and playing. Very musical with some shredding parts, something a lot of young guitarists just don't get. Good quality recording. Fan of you guys!

Dark December by Shepard's Ryde is a cosmic blastoff. It hurdles through space and takes you along for the ride as it circles the Sun the Moon and the Stars. It is put together very well and flows with no problems on board.

Upon the canvas of sound, the instrumental rock recording paints a mesmerizing tapestry of emotion and rhythm. The melody dances like ethereal brushstrokes, weaving through the symphony of life. The notes reveal a narrative that resonates with the heart's deepest recesses. In the ebb and flow of the composition, one can sense the delicate balance of contrasting elements—like the interplay of light and shadow in a romantic poem. The crescendos mirror the highs of passion, while the subdued moments reflect the pensive whispers of solitude.

I can't tell you how much I enjoy your music. Well I guess I can. I REALLY enjoy your music. There. I sincerely hope that you get rich and famous. At least rich.There is a world of marketing out there that doesn't involve radio play or selling albums. Your music is perfect for these venues. I hope that you will pursue these alternative means of selling this great stuff!

Upon your very first listen to the fantastic "Dark December" by Shepard's Ryde, you cannot help but to be deeply impressed by the musicianship, production and originality. While Shepard's Ryde's musicial influences are fairly evident, they have a sound that is uniquely their own and refreshingly inspired. Looking forward to hearing more from this fine band, highly recommended!

A very good evening to you and thank you for the invite to review your Instrumental Track "DARK DECEMBER" which may i say that i found your Composition in my personal opinion to be a track with a great strong melody and some good guitar playing and the production and performance was of a very professional standard and held your interest throughout the track,i truly enjoyed the chance to review your great work and look forward to reviewing further projects from you very soon.

I like the originality of your work. Strong message and creativity is a big plus. Good production, I can hear some good vocals to this, good job on the final mix-down. I can tell you have your heart and soul into what you do. Keep on pushing and never give up or get distracted in pursuing the dream of making it. I like the instrumental blend of sounds with some vocals and the production on the track is good. Keep up the great work! Peace!!!

One of the things I enjoy most about Number One Music artists is the newfound ability to hear music from around the world by singers who I'd never have the chance to listen to otherwise. That, in itself, is a great thing. Here, with this song the intro sounds like an omnious chase scene background score for an action adventure movie in Hollywood. Really excellent production and the guitar work - oh so smooth. I absolutely adore this style of music and would love to lay down vocals to a track like this. Keep up the magnificent work. Production here is A+!

Dark December is a dark ride to excellence. It takes you on a Journey. The instrumentation is five star worthy. The production value is five star worthy. The talent who made this track is five star worthy. The vibes I got on this song made the hair rise on the back of my neck. The lead guitar is bleeding sore with pain. You feel the emotion of the guitars. The rhythm section of the bass and drums are intact. This track is an orgasm of excellence

Making instrumental rock music is a bit similar to painting a picture I guess. Since there's no lyrics to express yourself, the colours must do so instead. The colours in this picture here are powerful and expressive. Not only the excellent guitar playing craftsmanship, but especially the sound of the guitars is amazing. There is no boring moment, even though 6 mínutes is quite a way to go. The speed changes have a huge impact as well. Excellent production. Great artists!

Being a guitarist and loving classic rock, this song has a big appeal for me. Excellent guitar work and the tone is spot on for this style. Really solid drummer as well. If I were to try and say anything along the lines of a critique, I would probably suggest finding a signature line on the guitar and start it off in the beginning of the song and work it in throughout the song so that it wouldn't simply be coming off like a 'jam' for the guitarist to just rock out. A signature would keep bringing the listener back to someplace in the song that they would relate to between all the flash. I hope you understand what I'm saying, because I really like the song. It just needs something to identify with. Good luck and keep writing!

Wow, this one is quite spectacular! I am a fan of instrumental Rock, and this has all the necessary ingredients of a fantastic and stellar instrumental Rock song! It is well-written, very nicely recorded, and performance-wise it'll blow your mind! The musicianship is superb, and since I'm a guitar player I can appreciate the talent of the guitar-player in the song, and particularly enjoyed the doubling and harmonies done on the guitar! Excellent! Highly recommended!

I love dark songs, when they're done with the commitment to stay where they start at, and deliver. This tune does just that. Gets a little busy with the melody in some places, but it has that dream like quality that you can close your eyes to and enjoy the moment with. Has a good steady beat with drums taht aren't misplaced. Good work, Rock on. and good luck.

THIS TRACK LITERALLY JUMPS OUT OF THE SPEAKERS AND HAS VERY GOOD PRODUCTION AND PLAYING SOME VERY TASTY GUITAR PARTS AND MOOD CHANGES TO KEEP YOU GUESIING WHERE THIS IS HEADING OVERALL VERY NICELY DONE

Bella partenza poi entra una chitarra scatenata che siamalgana bene nel ritmo e questa strumentale ha qualcosa di veramente originale con questo grande chitarrista che si sfoga a più non posso con tanta bravura e creatività come ripeto qui troviamo le 2 cose che fanno grande un musicista bravura e creatività più il pezzo va avanti e più entusiasma devo dire anche bei suoni

Hers a very cool rocking instrumental by a very cool band, right off the bat you can tell the influences of this group, the sounds from dream theater and the guitars of Steve vai and Jeff beck, very good playing I must add. Great rhythm section very tight. The arrangement,production and producing is way up there. I’m a big fan of instrumentals and hard kick ass rock. This track has everything in it and I’m happy to do this review. Good luck to you.

The music had great sounds and tones that really grabbed my attention. Vocals were on point and complimented the music and style. I really enjoyed it a lot. Just wanted to give you a little feedback didn’t have anything negative to say about it at all. Thanks for your time

This is steve from voodoo dancer and thank so much to letting me review your song you..again.************.....

Hello and thank you for asking me to review your music. This piece starts out with a slow rhythm bringing you into the melody. The focus is minimal which is good and not overrun with effect. That gives direction and variety. There is a nice percussion accompaniment that gives the lead support. There is a nice soft vocal effect at the end that plays you out to the end. The mix is nice and well played. Nicely done!

Very well thought out. I see this in a movie. Bravo bravo. I have vivid images of a adventure movie. But I was also caught off balance because it is very symphonic and all its nature. I wish you the very best in your future endeavors. You will go far. Seems like you're very talented throughout the spectrum and you well I have a problem finding a home in a studio.
