Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1985 release including bonus tracks. Dangerous Music was starting to generate good sales figures when his record company (Bronze Records) went bust and the record vanished from the shops. Now it's back 25 years later, with bonus tracks and eagerly awaited by fans all over the world. Robin George enjoyed a worldwide hit single in 1985 with Heartline and his stock was high as he entered the studio to record a follow up to his critically acclaimed album Dangerous Music. The album had the working title Dangerous Music II and was produced by acclaimed producer Gus Dudgeon. By the end of 1986 the album was completed and ready to go but his then management company went to market and because of the success of Heartline sought ridiculous advances and as such the album was never released-until now.
A tech-savvy, all-instrumental progressive metal group from Los Angeles. The origins of Scale the Summit date to 2004, when guitarists Chris Letchford and Travis LeVrier met as students at the Los Angeles Musicians Institute, then came into contact with fellow scholar and drummer Pat Skeffington, before completing their lineup with bassist Jordan Eberhardt several months later. Two years of rehearsal and sonic self-discovery followed until, at the end of 2006, all of the musicians relocated to Letchford's hometown of Houston, Texas and finished sculpting their exceptionally technical brand of "adventure metal," as they like to call it, for release on a self-financed debut album, immodestly named Monument. Turns out their confidence was largely justified by the impressive amalgam of progressive exploration (think Cynic, Dream Theater, Kong)…
Leap Day was founded on the 29th of February 2008. This Dutch sympho outfit has members of wellknown bands from the world of progressive rock, such as Flamborough Head, King Eider, Nice Beaver, Trion and Pink Floyd Project. In 2008 they released their demo cd containing three songs, including Awaking The Muse which is the title of their first full-length studio album released through Oskar music in 2009. In terms of musical style we're treated to neo-prog of the vintage variety here, with nods in the directions of Camel and Genesis as far as possible influences go. Lush sonic tapestries with multiple keyboard layers and melodic, gentle guitar soloing will be found aplenty on this album, and the lead vocals calm and soothing with a few subtle dramatic flairs on select occasions. Melody and harmony are keywords for this production though, and if that sounds enticing you'll most probably enjoy this effort…
Luciferian Light Orchestra is a new band wrapped in a vintage spirit. The band is performing songs that Christofer Johnsson has written over the years but thought were too retro sounding for Therion. Christofer always had a big passion for the 70’s music. Luciferian Light Orchestra sounds like a 70’s version of Therion, mainly inspired by the 70’s occult vibes and themes. The self-titled album is recorded by Christofer at Adulruna Studio and mixed by Lennart Östlund at Polar Studios. The self titled debut album was released by Adulruna in Europe on April 30.
