Music by Patrick Vega

CD REVIEWS/INTERVIEWS
* "Impressive chops....There are some beautiful lines here - and he uses texture and dynamics to good effect."
(Michael Molenda/Guitar Player Magazine)

* "Structured Rock songs, heavy riffs, melodic lines and a lot of taste and skilled production."
(Guitar9 Records)

* "Freefall Faith Firestorm is a highly entertaining album displaying a guitar player who is blessed with some great chops. His playing is highly accessible & dare I say, commercial thanks to his focus within all the songs on melody. Playing wise he has the swagger of Slash & the rocking fineness of Joe Perry all topped off with the schooled techniques of Joe Satriani. It’s a heady mixture but one that gives Vega an edge over some of the other guitar instrumentalists out there as he is very much a feel based player with a sense of adventure rather than a technical player following the theory route and the expected route."
(Al Hay/HARD ROCK HOUSE)

* Freefall, Faith, Firestorm is a CD that you'll want to pick up if you're a fan of istrumental, guitar music. This CD showcases the talents of Guitarist Patrick Vega. Vega is not one of these Guitar Players who is all flash and no quality. He's a guy who has a bit of flash but is full of talent and style. Vega is a true, musical genius, a real talent on the guitar and he has what is missing in most musicians these days and that IS style.
By that I mean to say that each, and every, single one of the 8 tracks on this CD are great in their own right!
Each track stands on it's own and rather than delivering a CD loaded with nothing but fast/speedy guitar riffs that either sound all the same. Patrick Vega delivers to his fans a collection of tunes where each song sounds different than the proceeding track and each track showcases Vega's talent as both a guitar Player and songwriter which isn't always easy to do with instrumental music. On this CD Patrick Vega shows us that he's all about quality/style. He's about what fits each song and shows that he knows the importance of style and melody.
After listening to this CD you will be as impressed as I was by the talent of Patrick Vega and you'll discover that Patrick Vega is a man who has a style that really is original and all his own.
(Jason Houston/Rock Zone Productions, www.myspace.com/rockzoneone)

* "Freefall Faith Firestorm does not fall short of expressing genuine vitality in the form of intricate licks that have finally found a home on a record. Definitely worth the money if you appreciate the work of talented solo guitarists."
(MUEN Magazine, read more at MUEN)

*"..hats off to Vega for producing a generally very nice album obviously on a budget – and under the added pressure of being stalked by a “crazy person”. It seems that Vega is having auditions to recruit a live band to play this material live and this will probably be when the thing really comes to life."
DPRP Dutch Progressive Rock Page Critique

* "The track is focused on structure & melody. It can be tempting in instrumental songs to put the focus on technique (yours is great by the way) rather than melody. Cool musicianship that feels mature and creates a good mood."
(TAXI on the FFF song "War Party")

*"The truth of the matter is that what Patrick is saying makes perfect sense. Besides being an awesome musician, Patrick is one of the most down to earth guys you will ever get to read about."
(Juniors Cave Online Magazine Juniors Cave Vega Interview Click Here)

*"This new album shows his great talent and excellent guitar performance overall. Amazingly, there are no boring moments. Mostly done and performed instrumentally by Vega on his premiere debut album, he carefully prepares various guitar-oriented music with nice music sensibility and good dynamics."
(Hamanaka.com/PilgrimWorld's FFF review. Read more...)

*"On the record Patrick did all the guitar and bass parts and he also was the responsible for the Synth and Drum Programming, in other words he did all the album by himself what is really cool to see that he was able to compose and create arrangements for the whole instruments. Patrick is definitely a great player and I think his songs will get some good recognition, so it worths listening!"
(Guitar Clinic Review Guitar Clinic.net & www.guitarclinic.com.br (Portuguese))

* „Lo cierto es que si desean oír un buen instrumental, donde la guitarra es la protagonista, pero sin buscar ir a dos mil por hora de puro riff, esta es mas que una buena chance de hacerlo.“
(Lucas Gordon/www.mundorock.org)

* "Interessante lavoro per Patrick Vega che ci presenta questo suo esordio formato da otto songs che spaziano dal rock americano al funk. Lo stile di Vega ci ricorda molto il primo Satriani. Si parte con la rockeggiante Camael per poi proseguire nell'interessante My Demons dove Patrick sforna le sue doti da vero shredder! Da mensionare le tracce più interessanti come No One, una power-ballad con bellissime melodie ben azzeccate e la finale The Big Lion sorretta da un bel riff rock-metal. Patrick vuole accentuare che il tutto è stato prodotto in camera da letto dallo stesso Vega, ma oramai non è più una novità, se un artista ha delle buone idee e le capacità tecniche non mancano si potrebber produrre un disco professionale anche in bagno! Troppo esagerato? Ok, allora accaparratevi questo album!"
(Matt Caffissi/Guitar Chef)
..read more

*"..Briefly put, it is instrumental rock music with melodious lines, but it can't be compared to Joe Satriani's solo works for instance. Patrick's stuff is much more atmospheric, subdued and even bit groovy here and there. The main components of "Freefall Faith Firestorm" are feeling and mood.
(HMP Magazine, Dept. of Virtuosity)

* "Vega's debut album...hasn't left my stereo since I got it. Tuned down guitars are jamming heavy riffs, catchy lead lines, drenched wah melodies & jaw dropping solos. The album never loses clear sight of melody, feel & groove & almost comes across like a movie soundtrack to Vega's musician life in LA. From vintage clean to over the edge Nu-Metal distortion, FFF has it all & more in one distinct - up to date - in your face package."
(Steve Klein/Guitarobsession Magazine)

* „That guy can shred with the best of them but he doesn’t stick it in your forehead with a fork. You know it’s there but it’s smooth & unforced.“
(Rob Gemmler/Studio Force)

* "This album is different than anything else outthere. Go ahead compare it. The vision of FFF was to create something unique...very modern, heavy, guitaristically & artistically interesting yet accessible & enjoyable. I can go off on my guitar like a self obsessed maniac an album's worth easily, but that's done to death we've already heard that. FFF is so much more. It's open & alternate tunings, life-inspired songwriting & lots of honesty, heart & vibe. Listen to FFF & you will feel it & you will enjoy my vision & ask for more."
(Excerpt from Online Interview: Patrick Vega talks about Freefall Faith Firestorm)

* It’s all about visuals and emotions. Lyrics or instrumental..doesn’t matter..it hit’s the spot when it touches you. I have a very colorful imagination; always had. See that beach there in the distance? I can smell the salt.."

I know it’s been a while and I sincerely apologize for that. I’ve been working on a new “cutting edge” series of cinematic portraits of U.B.R. ‘Neo-Renaissance’ artists and friends. This is the concept teaser for the project. Check it out and let me know what you think.


P.S. Your continuing friendship means the world to me personally. The U.B.R. couldn’t have gotten to this point without your support. I bow to you, my friend. Hope you have a great weekend! Love and light… - foni
