Cast (2):… Read Full Bio ↴Cast (1): A Britpop band formed in Liverpool, England in 1993.
Cast (2): Progressive rock band from Mexico, active since the late '70s.
Cast (3): Norwegian rapper from the late '90s.
Cast (4): Russian IDM / Glitch project.
Cast (5): A Romanian hip-hop group.
(1): Cast was formed in 1993 by John Power, the former bassist of The La's. They released four albums between 1995 and 2001. Cast were at the height of their popularity during the mid-90's Britpop movements. Whilst popular, they were seen as one of the "lesser" bands of the moment, often overshadowed by the likes of more popular bands such as Blur, Oasis and Pulp. It has been suggested that the name "Cast" was taken from the final line of the final song on The La's eponymous (and only) album. The song "Looking Glass" ends with the line ""The stone is cast, the glass is smashed".
After the commercial failure of their final studio album Beetroot in 2001, Cast split in 2002. John Power would subsequently release a solo album. In 2005 it was announced The La's were reforming with John Power included, this would seem to preclude any comeback for Cast for the foreseeable future.
A 2004 greatest hits album - The Collection - also failed to chart. It was criticised as it failed to feature the hit singles "Alright" and "Walkaway" from their most popular release All Change and was comprised largely of album tracks.
Since 2002 Peter Wilkinson has recorded and toured with a number of artists including Ian McCulloch and McCulloch's reformed band, Echo & The Bunnymen. Wilkinson left Echo and the Bunnymen in mid 2005 and has now rejoined the Liverpool band Shack who are currently signed to Sour Mash , Noel Gallagher's record label. Shack are due to release their new album On the Corner of Miles and Gil in March 2006.
(2): CAST was founded in 1978 in Mexico. Like so many other progressive rock groups they have evolved through the years and the music and influences have been changing between each album. Generally you can say that they are playing melodic progressive rock with many long instrumental passages combined with influences from baroque, bossanova, classical music, Heavy Metal, Jazz and Tango. The lyrics are mostly based on fantasy themes.
They have a very keyboard oriented British Neo-progressive sound and although they are from Mexico there are no distracting accents. You can hear influences from many different progressive rock bands such as CAMEL, EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER, DREAM THEATER, mid-period GENESIS (their main influence), JETHRO TULL, LED ZEPPELIN, MARILLION, PENDRAGON, PINK FLOYD, RUSH, SAVATAGE, UK and YES. All of the CD's are passing 60 minutes, with an average track length about 8 minutes long.
CAST is definitely one of the best neo-progressive bands together with MARILLION and PENDRAGON. It's very strange that they haven't gained more recognition in the neo-progressive genre. CAST is also said to be a very good live act.
3) Cast debuted as 50% of Norwegian rap group Equicez with the now-classic 2003 album "State of Emergency". He has always been one of the most controversial rappers in Norway, due to his former drug addiction and his expressed support to convicted criminal David Toska.
4) Denis Kaznacheev was born in 1983 in Tashtagol, in Siberia. Music was his greatest hobby since early childhood. His interest in hip-hop eventually evolved into an interest in electronic music; he was only 18 when he started his own IDM project, Cast. At about the same time he joins the Moscow minimal techno community and starts experimenting in the genre. The performance was a striking success which exceeded all expectations, and presently the Guttersnipe project can be heard at any of the chief Moscow dance floors, as well as in other Russian cities. The joint project of Denis Kaznacheev and Chizh, a well-known Moscow DJ, was published by Sender records, Germany, and received most favorable reviews from the critics.
Twelve Notes
Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is essentially twelve notes between any octave
Twelve notes and the octave repeats
It's the same story told over and over
Forever
All any artist can offer the world
Is how they see those twelve notes
That's it
"Thank you for being here tonight
To honor my husband
He wrote a song for me
I'd like to sing it for him tonight
And with your help, maybe I can
Thank you, really, thank you"
The lyrics in "Twelve Notes" by Cast explore the idea of music being comprised of only twelve notes, which are repeated in each octave. The song describes this as the "same story told over and over, forever." The lyrics suggest that, despite this restriction, artists can still offer unique perspectives through their interpretations of these twelve notes.
The lyrics also include a spoken word section, where a woman gives a speech thanking the audience for honoring her husband, who wrote a song for her. She wants to sing the song for him, and asks for their help. This section seems to amplify the theme of the song, as the husband's song, like all music, is made up of the same twelve notes, yet it was meaningful and unique because it came from him and his perspective.
The song reflects on the power and limitations of art, and how it can simultaneously be both constrained by certain rules and free to access our deepest emotions. The lyrics suggest that the beauty of music lies in the way each artist interprets these twelve notes, bringing something new and special to the world.

Well....I went to see this tonite.....and I must say BC never did anything for me....I have never seen any of his movies.....with that being said.....I was totally blown away!!! I fell in love with his character....and as far as the LADY goes....well....you don't see her at all.....oh she is billed as LADY GAGA.....but what you see is the ACTRESS STEPHANIE GERMANOTTA doing a stellar, oscar - worthy performance playing the newly discovered Ally.....we all know the big talent this little girl has so I don't have to say much because she has proven herself to be a star time and time again.....I was also very surprised by the other performances as well.....for example....the SMEXY SAM ELLIOT as BC"s older brother / manager......David Chappell as his old friend.......Anthony Ramos plays Ally's bestie....he also originated the role of JOHN LAURENS / PHILLIP HAMILTON in the original line up of Lin Manuel Miranda's production of HAMILTON.......but most surprisingly was ANDREW DICE CLAY who played Ally's father!!!! He looked so different than what most of us remember of him.....and he gave a great performance in his scenes.......I have been a fan of this movie since the 3rd remake from 1976 starring BARBRA STREISAND & KRIS KRISTOPHERSON....I know that movie and the soundtrack backwards....forwards...and sideways....and I expect it will be the same with this soundtrack as well.....I already have SHALLOW down....and I am learning the rest.....
In closing.....here is a little bit of ASIB trivia......Jon Peters is a producer of this movie....he also worked on the 76 remake as well....and was dating Barbra Streisand at the time.....in one of the love scenes of the 3rd installment.....Babs and Kris were in a sunken tub having some romance.....both were nude....or so you thought....Jon Peters was so jealous of the chemistry between the two actors that he demanded that KK wear underwear under the bubbles because he didn't want his bits touching any part of Babs bits!!!! TOO FUNNY!!!!
AND.....some of the concert scenes in ASIB 2018 were acturally filmed during........A KRIS KRISTOPHERSON CONCERT!!!! Once filming was done they brought KK out on stage...thanked him and he went on his business!!! How cool is that, that the movie has so many nods to those who were involved with this story in the past.....
I loved this movie.....and when it finally comes out on DVD I will own it and the soundtrack and know it by heart!!!!
"In the shallow.....shallow.........we're far from the shallow now......"
