Arrive the Radio Beacon (2010) Customer review of Arrive the Radio Beacon: “As far as atmospheric symphonic stews go, this is up there with the best. If it was available in CD format then it would be filed amongst the greats of Kelpe’s ‘Ex-Aquarium’ and BOC’s ‘Music Has The Right…’! A transluscent transcendence through space and time. Rykards debut: ‘Arrive the Radio Beacon’, couldn’t have arrived at a better time for all those space heads out there in need of sonic manifestations.” “Rykard’s a resident of Lancashire and a prevailer of fine atmospheric ambient instrumental wizardry. I like inparticular the titles of Rykard tracks, they have a natural realism, a sense of something solid Gary…North Cormorant Obscurity, Mmmmm, Monolithic, Oh yes, and this one, Rock Hewn.”
