Frank Klepacki's November Update

[Sonic 296]

Fresh from my inbox to the news page is the November update from Frank Klepacki.

 

GAMES IN CONCERT 3 A ROCKING SUCCESS!

On November 15th Frank was a special guest in Utrecht, Holland, at Games In Concert 3. Frank performed for the first time ever, the all new "Hell March 3" complete in conscript costume, with Holland's own popular rock group, After Forever. http://www.afterforever.com

 

A note from Frank on the show:

"The crowd response was amazing and much more than I expected. I wasn't even nervous to get on stage, until I heard them announce me - and the crowd was so loud cheering it gave me chills. Playing with the Metropole Orchestra and After Forever was an honor for me, as here I am coming to Holland for the first time ever to perform with these established musicians in their own country, and they were so personable and great to work with it was as if I had known them longer than the week I was there for. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I was happy to meet and sign autographs for the fans afterward. So many of them have emailed me over the years, that it was great to finally meet some of them in person. I appreciate all the support I've gotten from the Dutch people, and can't thank them enough, and I especially give thanks to Engine Software for sponsoring me to be there."

Sweet!! Jukebox now has RA3 music! Been waiting for this for a while.

[Saracen 16]

Imagine if Frank did the whole RA3 soundtrack... that would have Pwned! I don't like Grinder 2... But Hell March 3 is Solid.

 

Sonic will agree with me though, the "Nuclear Death" or "up yours" track is Klepacki's heaviest and best C&C track since Hell March. That is some serious guitar work right there!

The soundtrack turned out phenomenal anyway, so don't let us think about "if"s

yes the power of the riff compells us

[Sonic 296]

I think the RA3 soundtrack is damn good actually. Even some of the off beat stuff like the The Big Apple music. And I really like the RA3 credits music.

How the West was Won is great, as is For Mother Russia

[BioBen 3]

I really feel like making an ra3 gameplay video, sped up and in black n' white to "Russian reprise"
