Keyboard Maestro 9.0.6

The 20th album release from Mexican band Cast, formed by keyboard maestro Alfonso Vidales in 1978. Almost 80 minutes of music - 10 tracks, classic Cast!

Ad Maiora is back with a sophomore album, nicely following up their rather spectacular self-titled debut back in 2014. Italian prog has been in a revival mode lately, featuring a slew of new and innovative bands that span the spectrum from young talents like Unreal City, Il Paradiso degli Orchi and Ingranaggi delle Valle, to older seasoned pros like Sezione Frenante and of which Ad Maiora are probably the ideal candidates to point to.

Stunning guitar work, rich keyboards, excellent bass and drum interplay along with Hughes’ rich vocals are the order of the day here.

The UK’s kings of prog metal are back, and ready to conquer the world all over again.
Formed in leafy Surrey in the late '80s, Threshold truly blossomed in the following decade, and swiftly established themselves as the UK’s chief progressive metal standard bearers…
