Richie Allan - Melodyk! | JTCGuitar.com

[@jongomm]

Simply immense.

[@jongomm]

Just watching this again. Rich and enigmatic composition, dramatic dynamics, sensationally controlled and powerful playing, all aimed perfectly at delivering MAXIMUM FEELS. If I am ever tragically slain in combat for the love of a princess, this will be the soundtrack. Just insanely good.

[@TheDromanL]

+Jon Gomm Holy god! You know you have it when Jon Gomm calls your composition imense!

[@keithbarto5464]

Jon Gomm im floored by the brilliance of the phrasing, but what destroys me is the way the song takes you on a gradual and continuous ride, and the build in intensity through each section as it reaches its end...wow!! absolutely a fucking musical statement of authority that Richie made here...its on repeat constantly in my house

[@Ale-Desafinados]

Please Richie, give us the pleasure of listening to another Heavy Metal Ninjas album ASAP! 🎸 🎸 🎸

[@thedavidshreds]

One of the best guitar performances ever. Period.

[@petecrocombe698]

One of the most underrated players of all time. Purely through lack of exposure I’m sure

[@ArrepiaB]

Just cannot stop watching this, this is an absolute masterpiece to me.

[@ArrepiaB]

Hum never gets old :)

[@OwenNZ]

I come back here fairly regularly. I wish Richie got more recognition than he has, because this is truly one of the greatest guitar compositions I've ever heard. The way the song builds is phenomenal, and the way it all just unleashes right at the very end with those fast licks... mmmph. I need more.

[@PistolsPlayground]

Been watching this habitually for 8 years, still not tired of it. Richies melodic sense, and vibrato are second to none, and his chops are flawless.

[@latemnf]

some of the cleanest and controlled playing I've ever seen.

[@kostaskod97]

That's a really strong playing style !!!!!!!!!! PERFECT TONE !!!!!!!!!!

[@RitualEnternainment]

A part of my life is just written in this beautiful piece of art

[@rauxh]

At the begging wasn't convinced, but at the half of the song it totally got me. Superb player.

[@codytj3434]

Gustavo Rauch same thought process

[@aleatoriac7356]

2:50 - 2:51 the beast growls for a bit in all the wonderful melody... I LOVE IT!

[@MateNako]

+CodeStation This is best thing ever...seriously..

[@badsheep91]

Discovered Richie Allan and his band a couple months ago and I've been really hooked up by their style and technique. Really happy to see him here now, especially on this masterpiece.

[@RohanAlmeida77]

In all seriousness this is just simple playing but with brilliance! Simplicity is king!

[@AdrianBrown15]

Makes me proud to be a New Zealander! Love this Richie!

[@BenSairinMusic]

Love this tune, i found out about Richie and Heavy Metal ninjas many months ago. Such great feel...

[@londoncharlieboy]

[@aleatoriac7356]

GetaKillSwitch Hell yeah! It's about time he showed up on Jamtrack Central!

[@giovannidelgrosso3822]

Bella storia...quando attraverso le note si racconta...grande!!

[@amateuracoustics]

Thumbs up for the Vaish vibrato! ImI

[@sixtring73]

Nice one Ritchie! beautiful.

[@EM-wv8vf]

I always revisit this for some inspiration on just pure fuckin FLAVOR. This track stays smackin sauce on these ribs.

[@luke847]

Ahhh so clean. No string noise allowed :) beautiful control over that aspect, the rest of the chops speak for themselves.

[@YashGadwal]

Dat vibrato tho. Seriously, an amazing player with really great phrasing skills. Richie Allan, you tha bomb mayne! XD

[@music-tk1fo]

[@darlynbottier498]

🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

[@EixtremeDrummer]

Lovely song and amazing smooth bends... One the best surprises of the year -for ignorants about Richie like me- . A great demo about how to be a great guitarist without soloing very fast all the time.

[@guillermoseijo2437]

muy buen estilo, distintas melodias, buena combinacion y creativo-distinto de lo clasico, mas bien progresivo, muy bueno.

[@SavaMakesMusic]

Yeeeeay! Finally!

[@johannesdoe5158]

Great.

[@paid22b]

WOW!!!

[@StephenTellsStories]

"I love Steve Vai's Tender Surrender. I'd like to do something like that but with a Zakk Wylde vibrato and way djentier."

[@samuelamezcua2105]

breath taking metal here folks. its like vai if he could calm down once in awhile

[@metallicaandchimaira]

Fuck man. The beginning is so nostalgic god damn. Perfection!

[@LuisDuranMusica]

I see this song as HMN´s version of Tender Surrender, i´ve come across with Allan´s work like 8 moths ago (?) more or less, and i´m beyond amazed with his work, his playing is so clear, he has a really and i mean REALLY good balance between technique, feel and some other things, as easy as he can play something melodic he can play something really fast, there´s a video where he plays Serrana arpeggios from Becker like nothing. All i can say about this dude is that i just hope i can see him and HMN live

[@gus3247365]

Invites you in , and surprises you with what you were not really expecting , love making with ups and downs and ends abruptly , a sort of wham, bam, thank you mam number that can hold your interest for more than a while , and listen again. You played wonderfully .... cheers .. gus

[@MindVortex7000]

Such a tribute to Tender Surrender by Vai, who was a big influence on Allen. The music and skill are impacable.

[@meskawy]

amaizing

[@xlR2lx]

Heavy Metal Ninjas son

[@christopher_trou]

nicee !!

[@anjansiwa2535]

Epicc..

[@jaggercontreras9270]

Great

[@ΑΝΤΩΝΗΣΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΗΣ-ρ4ψ]

killer vibrato

[@AllanGildea]

Of course he's more than good, he is a guitar playing god. That's why my ironic comment has a smile beside it. It's called understatement and was reinforced by my stating he had 'amazing talent', just in case there was any confusion.

[@carlosrivera304]

Alexs

[@agentc1823]

Mean Maori! Out there G!!

[@jairskellington7468]

Quiero algún día componer como todos estos guitarristas, poder transmitir un sentimiento a través de la música.

[@Aster0o]

Nice

[@Not_Interested93]

What ever happened to Richie Allan? I don’t see any new videos or posts from him. Anyone know if he’s still around?

[@nbnguitar]

He’s still around. He does sound for L.A.B and occasionally plays for KORA.

[@k4s4a3]

vai vibes

[@UNGETABLE7]

k4s4a3 Vaibes..

[@marziorojas]

Maybe 2024 is the year I finally get to play it completely… it has to take Me less than 10 years… 😢😢😢

[@laurentlag3688]

Comme j'aime ! Pur ... pas loin de Vai tout ça.

[@TheTaxmanjr]

When u have to hit the B on the E string coz u not flash enough for a 7string 😂 beautiful bro

[@AlexandreLaurentino1]

Que que isso O.O

[@YairFontaine93]

Máster!

[@Cring0r]

one of my favorite albums, guys go buy the album if you enjoyed this track, Heavy Metal Ninjas - Interstellar Abduction, I just hoped that he was making some kind of 20 licks package with JTC :p

[@Guitarraeficaztutorialesytabs]

This is how you should phrase.
