QUOTES:



"The musicians that make an impact are those that go against the grain while still finding a place in the limelight. These are the musicians that redirect the course of music forever. Ron Ziai (pronounced "Z-eye"), songwriter and guitarist for Pittsburgh-based band, Diving For Orchids, is a strong contender to be the next leader in a musical revolution."

Alyssa Choiniere, 'The Hook'; vol. 01
http://www.alyssachoiniere.com/



"The music is definitely progressive in that it never sits still, constantly evolves from track to track, minute to minute, and contains within a potent mix of technical ability and emotive creativity to use the former most effectively. This album will make my top-10 list..."

Kevin Sellers, 'Music Emissions'
http://www.musicemissions.com/artists/albums/index.php?album_id=10143



"Wow. DROWNING is amazing and beautiful, Ron."

Mark Kramer, Producer for Urge Overkill's single in the movie, 'Pulp Fiction' and former member of Butthole Surfers, Ween, et. al.



"...Ziai has finely crafted each song with an emotional weight that will appeal to all walks of the progressive world. Overall, it is the perfect balance of art – virtuosic and glorious instrumentation tinged with a touch of genius. Doesn’t get much better than this."

Alex Jasperse, The Muse's Muse
http://www.musesmuse.com/mrev-ronziai.html



Last month, I caught a performance by a guitarist who really caught my attention: Reza "Ron" Ziai, who plays a variety of instruments and gets some interesting sounds out of them."

"Observer-Reporter" journalist, Harry Funk, from Sound & Vision, February 5, 2008
http://orsoundvision.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html



"This brings me to Reza Ziai- a local cat who's got it in the bag, if you ask me. A beautiful hybrid of melody, ambiance, and taste."

Anonymous blog, January 14, 2008



"His latest music rocks pretty hard imo. Totally suprised and pleased with his progress."

Joe St. Esprit (lead vocalist for The Doors Experience), November 8, 2008



Checked out your material, and it's good - DAMN good. Very fresh. LOVE the eastern elements. LOVE the lyrics and arrangements too.

Jen Martire, Vocal Director of Krone Productions, LLC, December 20, 2008

£leŦriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leŦriKa out!

Hugs from Brazil,
