Building on the freeze, now we ride the wave—amplifying voices, sparking new energy.

STOP THE FEED – FREEZE the LOVE

The ever-flowing feed is both a blessing and a curse. It delivers fresh beauty from artists around the world, but only for a moment—blink, and it’s lost, buried beneath the tides of time and algorithm.

The Enigma’s Solution:
This new “play-playlist” is a masterstroke. By curating and freezing these moments in an ongoing journey, we transform ephemeral art into a living archive—a beacon that outlasts the fleeting feed.

STOP THE FEED – RISE THE WAVE – IGNITE the SOUND // July 15th, 2025” is not just a playlist; it’s a protest, a time capsule, and a celebration of artistic endurance.

A New Tradition Begins:
This is only the fourth of its kind. Each new playlist will chart the next leg of our voyage, evolving in spirit and intent. 

This sequence creates a narrative arc:
Freeze (capture) → Rise (amplify) → Break (liberate)
Each title is a call to action and a milestone in the ongoing journey.

Crew on Deck:
All hands are called to contribute, to rescue and preserve the gems that might otherwise vanish. This playlist becomes the ship’s logbook—a record of what truly moved us, unbound by the tyranny of the scroll.

Officer’s Salute:
Captain, you’ve turned a limitation into a legacy. The Enigma’s playlist will stand as a lighthouse for lost songs and overlooked voices.

Let the world know:
We do not let beauty slip away unnoticed. We freeze the love, ride the wave, and break the chains—the journey continues.

Inspired by all of you

A ROMANCE UNDERGROUND

My humble contribution to the popular musical magna opera that may be understood as 'Lost in space.'

Far From Home

A small piece with the great BoxTox on clarinet.
It was supposed to be a little piece to celebrate the end of the rain on a rainy day, when you can finally go out for a walk, to smell the air. But these days there has been a terrible flood in my country, it has been raining for days, in some areas it has been a catasphrophe... I know, water is life and rain is indispensable but I really don't love it, I can't help it. Let's hope it ends soon..
Thanks to BoxTox for his splendid execution. Here you can find his wonderful music: @user-247600493
And here is our previous collaboration: https://soundcloud.com/francescocartocci/francesco-cartocci-boxtox-et-voila

A Romance Underground

Another piece with my friend @Rosindust, the 23rd, so far...
I can't give it a definition of its musical genre, there are many things in it and in these cases I solve the dilemma with a nice tag "World", which in fact means everything and nothing, or maybe only that it's not extraterrestrial music :)
Or maybe, in this case, choosing "World" is just right: a few days ago I was in Marseille, France, it was early in the morning and while everyone was sleeping I received on my cell phone the recording of Tatiana's part from Siberia. I listened to it and I replied: "Thank you! Tonight, in Rome,I'll put it all together and I'll let you know".
A few hours later, she was probably walking in a wood when she listened to the finished track I just sent back. Now it seems normal but, just thinking about something like this, until a few years ago it would have seemed impossible...
The wide world has become a small world.

Cueva de Valparaiso

Coming back from Spain in early January my memories were full of the great sites and flamenco musicians I had seen. So I picked up my Flamenco guitar again and recorded this track. A blend of Granaína, a flamenco style from Granada, and Bolero. The opening is a solo improvisation after which the track begins with two guitars trading off. Hope you'll enjoy!

Original music written and arrangement for two acoustic guitars by Daniël van den Berg, January 2025.

Guitar: Joan Cashimira, modelo 145, spruce top w/ cocobolo sides and back, Gata de Gorgos (Alicante), 2015 
Recorded using an Apogee MiC. 
Mixed in Auria, masterered in Auria and Final Touch

Verse 1
The Rain fall in the garden,
A brand new start, a day to learn.
Forget all, we were us ,
and now ... we get in touch.

Chorus
There's somewhere else that we could be,
There's someone else that we can see.
There's only love to set us free.
All that we can, we can be,
All that we are, we can see.
All that leasure fall in our hands,
So -- don't --fall back again !

Verse 2
The day fall down the sea,
It's a pleasure to see this one.
No pressure, don't be sorry,
Comes a time where it's more easy.

Chorus
There's somewhere else that we could be,
There's someone else that we can see.
There's only love to set us free.
All that we can, we can be,
All that we are, we can see.
All that leasure fall in our hands,
So -- don't --fall back again !

Don't Fall Back Again

"All" is a deeply emotional orchestral arrangement based on Anastasiya Ihnatovich’s piano composition. The piece evolves from delicate, intimate textures to powerful cinematic moments, blending lyrical melodies with rich harmonic depth. It is a musical journey full of longing, warmth, and a touch of melancholy.

Thanks to the incredibly talented @anastasiya-ihnatovich for providing and sharing this wonderful composition.

Saturnian Song - video live in description

NO A.I. INVOLVED
It all started in late 2022 while driving. I heard a song on the radio that inspired me to create this piece. I only heard it once, I don't know the author(s) or the title of this song.

After creating the core/mockup of the song, I presented it to Brian Butts (@brian-butts-565934842), which is amazing multi instrumentalist, and asked if he would record a guitar solo similar in idea to the solo from "The Break in Tranquility" https://soundcloud.com/r-u-r-pl/the-break-in-tranquility, which I had previously asked him to review. He agreed to this willingly and that's how my first ever collab was created.

I actually regret a little that this song is a bit too slow, but trying to speed it up caused Brian's solo to fall apart, and my skills don't yet allow me to properly edit it.

This song was lying in my "drawer" for over 2 years. I wasn't fully satisfied with what I did and its sound. I wasn't able to come up with a good Bridge and make it a full-fledged song. In the end I decided to release it as is. I only modified some parts to maintain the feeling of the progression of the arrangement.

Sorry Brian, my friend, that it took so long, but my perfectionism https://w.wiki/9XhH makes me constantly dissatisfied with what I do and often prevents me from finishing the songs.

Thanks to my friend ••kavvka •• (@grzegorzkawka), for his constant support, patiently listening to subsequent versions and lots of good advice.

To craft this piece I used
Ableton Live Standard
Ableton Live's Simpler
NI Massive
Spitfire Originals Epic Strings
Spitfire Originals Epic Brass & Woodwinds
iZotope Ozone 9 Elements
Impact Soundworks Shreddage 3 Stratus Free (only when the guitar enters)
Arturia Filter MS-20
Valhalla Supermassive (Free)
iZotope Ozone Imager (Free)

I also used 3 MIDI drum loops from free libraries in Ableton LIVE.

Thanks for listening. I hope You'll enjoy.

► Lyrics ◄
The wind comes
I don't know the direction
Steps are taken
Random Numbers
With each play
The start is given 
Luck may be on my side
But I let it happen
Not how to cheat time
Life stops and he goes on
Friendly time, enemy time
But only he knows
Know the story
I leave it in your 
And I follow like the wind
#Wind #Comes #Vento

The Wind Comes

My remix of the Beautiful Track "The Golden Eternity" by Marco Lucchi

The Golden Eternity (progettosonoro remix)

Anxious Chill

(Dragging My Butt) Into The Sunshine

'Never Too Late' is an easy listening Jazz Fusion Track

Dont Smudge The Ink

Never Too Late

I felt like this one needed the extra time to unfold and develop in the direction it wanted to go, could be my longest solo piece yet! My songwriting process has moved almost entirely to Ableton Live and I'm find it to be such an inspiring workflow. This is yet another recent track where I'm having fun weaving in the guitar.

Time and Space

This track is about those who at some point in their lives have felt lost and confused, searching for the meaning of their lives and for the path to light.

Lost In Dark

'Dont Smudge The Ink' is an easy listening laid back track and soundscape.

Lyrics:

There’s a light in the forest – Let it shine
There’s a fire in the distance – Let it burn

There’s a songbird on my shoulder that sings so gracefully
And it sings of a place that used to be
Let it shine, let it shine

There’s a light on the ocean – Let it shine
There’s a ship that comes a sailing - Sail on by

And it sails from a place that holds sweet memories
And it sails to a place that used to be
Let it shine, let it shine

Bridge

To all the memories that I hold
To all the stories left untold
Let them shine

Solo

There’s a light in the desert – Let it shine
And the sands they are a burning – Let them burn

And the full moon shines above us, and it shows for all to see
And it tells of the tales that used to be
Let it shine, let it shine

Let it shine to the end

Let it shine

Bid me to live, and I will live
Thy protestant to be;
Or bid me love, and I will give
A loving heart to thee.

A heart as soft, a heart as kind,
A heart as sound and free,
As in the whole world thou canst find,
That heart I'll give to thee.

Bid that heart stay, and it will stay,
To honour thy decree;
Or bid it languish quite away,
And 't shall do so for thee.

Bid me to weep, and I will weep,
While I have eyes to see;
And having none, yet I will keep
A heart to weep for thee.

Bid me despair, and I'll despair,
Under that cypress tree;
Or bid me die, and I will dare
E'en death, to die for thee.

Thou art my life, my love, my heart,
The very eyes of me;
And hast command of every part,
To live and die for thee.

'Three Nibs. ....an "alternative" fusion track and mixed genre. Inspired by my time spent in London as a music copier/transcriber. transcribing the individual parts from a score to the relevant parts for individual musicians. tHis was all done by hand and pen and ink. I used three indivdual pens with different nib sizes. hence the name of the piece, (Three Nibs). Scores could be anything from big bands  to smaller bands and genres varied from score to score. I've attempted to emulate the varied contents of the scores in this piece. Hopefully it makes sense to you when listening.

This is my current favorite Alt band, and I had to take a stab at a cover. Obviously I can't duplicate the original, but I worked within my limitations and played this.

Malina Live - Video in description

“Reverglass” is a cinematic ambient dreamwave piece built around translucent synth textures, glassy echoes, and a nostalgic tone in F♯ minor.  
It captures the feeling of looking through memory  like watching your past reflected in a fogged window at night.

Best enjoyed with headphones  
Inspired by the quiet hours between midnight and dawn.

REVERGLASS

In the desert

Tɔɔ Réo est une chanson traditionnelle Gurunsi en lyélé de Réo au Burkina Faso, chantée pour valoriser la parole des anciens et les rythmes Burkinabè de chez nous à Réo. C’est fait avec balafon, calebasse, tambours — pas de son moderne. Juste la voix d’un vieux père, les réponses du village, et le souffle du marché du 21. C’est la parole qui fait danser.

Tɔɔ Réo yé naaba. Tɔɔ yé zãã. Dɔɔr yé waali. Réo n’ba tɔɔ. Wɛrɛ, dundun, balafon — banga ka banga.

Tɔɔ Réo is a traditional Lyélé song from Réo, Burkina Faso. Sung in Lyélé with balafon, calabash, and hand drums — no modern instruments. Just the voice of an elder, the village's response, and the spirit of the 21 market day. It’s the word that makes us move.


Tɔɔ Réo

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.
