“Today I’ve the privilege to meet Ricardo Vargas Lopes at an airline club at JFK. Looking at him, I remember what I’d written about him last year. That back then he was unleashing about 10% of his potential. During our brief meeting, I asked him if it was possible to show me his latest productions. As his latest tracks began playing, I felt as I was transported to another musical dimension and I couldn’t describe the marvelous sonority, harmonics, convolution, and emotional impact his music had on me. If back than he was unleashing less than 10% of his talent, I’m confident to say that now his approaching the 70% mark. In summary, a legend is raising with very effectual energy!”

“KLN Digital Art soundscape though is completely remarkable. What makes KLN Digital Art scoring so unique is the focus on the score itself you will manage to find a very different experience than others take. It's actually quite stunning to see the short-film take on two personas. KLN Digital Art's score may be regarded as the unwelcome by others, but it holds an immense wonder in its own right.”

“After hearing some of the productions KLN Digital Art Studio is doing, I wouldn’t be surprised if it trembles the ground of his competition. His talent is up to par with the best professionals in this area I’ve know.”

“The magnetism of Rick from KLN Digital Art’s Ambient Music.
After spending some quality time with Rick, from KLN Digital Art Studio, I couldn’t avoid comparing him with my extensive ambient-music collection. I’m astonished to see just how many possibilities his music offers. He excels in many styles: Classical, Movie, New Age songs like “Final Cut When All Hope is Gone” which stretch out time, perception and feelings and make everything just magnificent. Sometimes the ambient impulse can express itself in unusual ways. Watching his private performances here in New York City was an experience beyond I can express with words. It’s hard to get a fix on exactly what’s happening, but, if you open your windows and keep the album on repeat, you can trick yourself into thinking that the world outside has changed.”

“The music industry is known for its stern competition and negligible opening for new artists. I’d an opportunity to watch two of Rick’s private presentations. With all due respect to aspiring and pro musicians, Rick is fearless about how the strict music for films is or how small opportunities there are out there. He’s rising like a rocket propelled by anti-matter fusion. I mean, it feels as he’s ascending at light speed. I’m impressed by his unparalleled and inimitable talent. I can clearly see him scoring soundtracks for future motion pictures.”

"As I’d predicted before, Ricardo was unleashing less than 10% of his talent. I can’t wait to see his performance in New York next month, if I can get in, Again, in my opinion he is a genuine star who came to shine on his own radiance to all of us! Someone like Ricardo was long due in the music industry."

“These are astonishingly, refreshingly, "modern" compositions. There are five songs which grip you from the start, involving you with profound emotions, and once you've listened a few times they all grow on you!”

“A Star is born and rising! Ricardo (Rick) has an astonishing, exceptional, innovative, and eclectic undistinguishable style combining classic rock with post-modern music. I true candidate for Enio Morricone, Vaglelis, Michael Kamen and Rick Wakemans’ legacy. Don’t be surprised if you came across Rick´s music thinking you're listening to Vangelis, for example. Rick is a true one of a kind musician who will leave his legacy on the music arena.”

“Until today, I haven’t met a composer up to par with Vangelis. This is until I’ve met Rick. I’m certain he’ll make history in the film and music industry continuing Vangelis contribution.”

“After listening to Ricardo’s performance, I’m certain he’s only showing less than 10% of his true artistic potential on Reverbnation. He mentioned that soon he'll be unveiling more of his powerhouse soundtrack and cinematography production endowment. This is a star that came to shine on his radiance! ”
