I know Steve isn't a member here, so I figured I'd throw some promo out there for him on his new/old album, "Heroes Awaken" as he's been talking to me a bit on the sound choices and guitars used in the last few months etc.

In 1990, that's when the original release came out and it used almost all midi, but now he's updated the album using maybe...a half and half mix between the original midi files (but with some newer keyboard sounds and a few of the original ones) and lots of real guitars--basses, electrics, acoustics. OK, there is MUCH more of a focus on guitars now, so maybe it's not really half and half. 60/40 maybe...70/30?

He's done a great job bringing his considerable guitar skills to this, turning it into quite a different beast from the original that may well appeal to prog fans. You can hear elements of Mike Oldfield, Mike Holmes and Steve Hackett in his playing to my ears anyway...

And the composition is really good!

Here's the bandcamp for it, and don't forget it IS Bandcamp Friday today too!
