Ghost of My Hero by Shirlinda is a haunting blend of rock, goth rock, darkwave, and dungeon synth, weaving ethereal melodies with gritty, driving beats. The album’s atmosphere is thick with mystery, drawing from classic hard rock riffs and dark ambient soundscapes. Shirlinda’s vocals, layered with both whisper-soft harmonies and powerful belts, float like ghostly apparitions, conveying both melancholy and resilience. Synth-heavy tracks evoke a retro-futuristic vibe, reminiscent of old-world gothic aesthetics but tinged with modern synthwave and dark electronica influences.

Lyrically, Ghost of My Hero explores themes of loss, solitude, and memory. Each track feels like an exploration of an ancient, shadowed landscape where haunting echoes and distant thunder provide the sonic backdrop. Guitar riffs and bass lines are intense and hypnotic, grounding the ethereal synth melodies and drawing listeners into a labyrinth of sound. The title track, "Ghost of My Hero," is a powerful anthem that combines Shirlinda’s storytelling with her unique blend of post-punk and industrial rock influences.

The album appeals to fans of underground music scenes, with tracks that range from pulsating dungeon synth compositions to brooding gothic ballads. It’s an album that lingers, like the memory of a distant figure whose presence remains in both light and shadow, offering both a tribute to and a reimagining of the darker realms of music.

An experiment: 

Dark ambience surrounds the sounds

The disparate sounds and jarring changes reflect 

the increasing dissonance 

between the system and its users,

between a society and its citizens..

Nouveau Morceau. L'achat du RTL-SDR sur mon Raspberry PI en réseau fonctionne à merveille. Et comme dans les ondes moyennes, il y a des bruits chelous,  j'ai capturé et j'ai composé mon nouveau morceau autour de ce son. Je vous souhaite une très bonne écoute.

Damga has her own refined taste and sensual style, which she works out in her erotique art-music and coverart.

Open but poétique, 
charmante mais mystérieuse! J'ai eu sa proposition de faire quelque chose sur sa musique, mais sa voix était déjà entrain de bouger l'univers...
nous sommes "2 stars "Notre attraction  est suivie par une colusion stellar: hot!

Cosmic pleasure (with Damga)

We are stars you and me
hot when we collide
Shining bright
emitting light 

lyrics: cosmic pleasure


hot hot  hot

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, 
How I wonder what you are! 
Up above the world so high, 
Like a diamond in the sky. 

Twinkle, twinkle, all the night. 

Then the traveler in the dark 
Thanks you for your tiny spark, 
How could he see where to go, 
If you did not twinkle so? 

In the dark blue sky you keep, 
Often through my curtains peep 
For you never shut your eye, 
Till the sun is in the sky. 

As your bright and tiny spark 
Lights the traveler in the dark, 
Though I know not what you are, 
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

Cosmic pleasure with Damga!

cette ballade au piano et piano électrique est aussi une balade dans un moment béni de ma jeunesse , lorsque, avec mes copains étudiants de philo on guettait l'arrivée en export du dernier disque de folk en provenance des US, une autre Amérique , celle des grands espaces et de la liberté, si éloignée, si opposée à celle qui se suicide aujourd'hui sous nos yeux!! on sortait alors dans le campus le piano, les guitares, les tablas, et bien sur, "le pouvoir des fleurs"! C'était quelques années après 68, c'est dire si je suis vieux!!! j'espère que ma ballade le sera moins que moi...

Somethings Burning

As a producer when I was asked to mix and produces this track.. I thought 'Hell Yeah', hadn't heard it for decades..... had no idea it had been used for just about everything over the that few years...

Brand New Key

I left it on the bench, I know I did. Someone has moved it! Where the hell is it?

🎬 "Fuori la Verità". Behind the glossy image of the Moretti family lies a web of secrets, lies, and unspoken truths. When they take part in a controversial TV game show that rewards honesty with one million euros, every question becomes a potential explosion.

Driven by Michele Braga’s evocative score, the film explores the fragile balance between truth and deception, asking whether revealing everything truly sets us free or destroys us.

Have recently discovered some old tracks which I did back in 2009 but have never been previously released or worked on further. Decided to let them see the light of day, unedited and unpolished. Hope you enjoy them and can see where my humble beginnings started.
Also new for Autumn 2025, a collection of classical piano pieces which I composed back in 2010, in memory of my late father who inspired me to play the keyboard in the first place. Under the title of Magician In Private, hope you will allow my indulgence into a special world of just simple piano, no frills.

Happy New Year to all my followers, May 2025 be filled with musical magic.

Am back to making regular music now but sorry no Christmas songs this year. This time of year is very hard for me as it is when my father became very ill and died in the new year 2010. I still miss him very much but hope he would be proud of my musical journey, he is my number one inspiration.
Just a quick personal note on AI and music. I think it is not a good thing for the creative side of music and a lot of it comes without feelings or soul. Creativity is a gift, and should be greatly valued, cherished and nurtured. Music is what makes us human and can never be replaced by a computer.
Finished remastering up to and including 2023 now. Has been a mammoth task but well worth the effort. Next year I shall be working on a remastered series of my pre KORG days 2000 to 2008, in 8 volumes, as well as celebrating in style my 10 years of KRONOS magic, can't wait for 2025.

Have recently been rediscovering some of my older music pre KORG days and remastering for uploading to my cloud. Hope you like. Seems such a long time ago now.
I have been lucky to have music in my life, and now the time to explore how it can affect other people. I have discovered many new talented artists on SC and am happy to encourage and support their work; from small beginnings come great things. Please be inspired to be your best, inspire others too, encourage those who lack the inner courage to move forward, and together we can make music make a difference in all our lives.
Am spending a lot more time on my music now since retiring from work in July 2020. Always learning new techniques and honing my craft. Am comfortable now with all chord sequences throughout the scales and loving improvising with the help of my mighty KORG still. Am still trying to give my full support and encouragement to all SC users and some latest (you know who you are), are developing nicely. Be good to one another, be gracious to others, leave your ego out of your life and above all else remember there is always someone worse off than yourself. 
Please be kind to each other, to be happy with our lot without jealousy or greed; to give without asking the cost; to love as if there is no tomorrow; to share and inspire others who may be less fortunate than us; most of all to enjoy life for the joy of living, for we know not what the morning brings - stay safe my friends, be strong and always stay positive; remember life changes - DON'T let it change you!!  
Music is my life - has helped me through many dark places, is a big part of who I am. I put my heart and soul into every single piece of music I produce. I have found many wonderful friends on SC and many exciting talented people.  Been writing and producing music now for 40 years plus. Specialised in electronic based orchestral compositions. I have created my own genre which I call 'electrorchestration'.
Favourite artists/bands include Gary Numan, Little Boots, Jools Holland, Eno, Edgar Froese (1944-2015), Jordan Rudess, Kebu, Madis, Keith Emerson (1944-2016), Rick Wakeman, Richard Wright (1943-2008), Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, M83, Public Service Broadcasting, Dream Theater, ELP, Yes and Mystery to name but a few.
