HEROES AWAKEN

This is the debut album by Steve COCHRANE. It's electronic all-instrumental progressive rock played on a various keyboards and MIDI guitar. It's very relaxing and the tight orchestral arrangements are very good. You won't miss the vocals because his music is very "lyrical" in the sense that he's telling the story through the music.

His musical soundscapes is reminiscent to KITARO. My favourite tracks are "Walking In Focus", the happy "Tiddlywink Road" with a great melody, "Live Free Or Die" and the absolute highlight "Worship The Hero Within".

It's almost as good as his most recent album "The Purest Of Designs". Recommended if you're into electronic all-instrumental progressive rock.
