Maniacs

Hasty Mentality

Life is amazing. Flowers grow in sidewalks, hawks make nests on top of skyscrapers, sun is warm, rain is life giving.
I think we complicate life by confusing it with "living" by goals and imposed "desires" that make us anxious: need more money/have to live in a penthouse/bigger faster cars/
It's not bad to work and produce but when you lose sight of mortality/empathy/sharing. then your "productivity" will not bring you satisfaction or peace.
we are very temporary. It is just as easy to care as it is to hoard and to help as it is to hate.
anyways I hope you enjoy this song.I'mplaying around with guitar notes, no structure just let the fingers go wherever whenever

tiny little lizard scampers on the screen
grabbing tight the wires with his tiny little feet
gets into a spot of sun that hits him on his back
he's so happy now I wish I could always feel like that

happy little firefly flits across the lawn
flashing bright his small tail light ,singing his happy song
nothing here to slow him down or cause him pain or fright
I wish that when I walk out side I'd always shine that bright

So I'm the only one in the world today
the only one here to sing and play
I put on my Sunday best
I say to heck with all the rest
I'm going to walk among flowers and trees
No people here to fear or please
I'll let the sun warm my back
I'll let my light shine bright
Not worry so much about living
but just go celebrate life

it's not that complicated

Olivier's Toads

Once again I was very fortunate that the talented Irish bard Johnny McFarlane created great lyrics for one of my pieces of music. I think these lyrics can be help and support for us to find our inner strength and magic, especially in these dark and difficult times! Thanks so much, Johnny!

Lyrics by John McFarlane  (copyright)

Don’t close your eyes and have no fear.
You must be Brave for the Magic to Appear.
Believe, be strong and you will see.
The Magic inside of you will set you free.

Don’t be chained by your fears, you must be strong.
Stay true, trust your heart for you belong.

Chorus
Stay true to your heart and you will see.
The magic inside of you will set you free.
Stay true to your heart and have no fear.
And you will see the Magic will appear.

Don’t close your heart or you might stray.
Don’t close your eyes or you’ll surely lose your way.

Chorus
Stay true to your heart and you will see.
The magic inside of you will set you free.
Stay true to your heart and have no fear.
And you will see the Magic will appear.

Stay True To Your Heart (John McFarlane & Raphael Muhr)

Propaganda.


One misspoken word, one wrong look mistimed 

Law enforcement agents will charge you with thought crime

You’re in violation, you flaunted the guide lines

It’s time for vaporisation, it’s time to say good bye yeah!


It’s time to say good bye

It’s time to say good bye

It’s time to say good bye

It’s time to say good bye


The gas lighting government at the ministry of love

Monitor your every move they watch you from above

Citizens do as you’re told, no thinking for yourself

The tele screen instructs you how if you value your good health.


Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye


The thought Police are in your head or are you double thinking

Don’t dare say what’s on your mind or you’ll get vaporised 

There signs are there you know it’s true

Don’t look up they’re watching you

Keep your head down, walk the line

Look straight ahead, you’ll be fine.


It’s time to say good bye  

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

Yeah it’s time to say good bye

Sanity makes no sense

Propaganda keeps you on the fence

Sanity makes no sense

Yeah it’s time to say good bye.

🎹 PIANISSIMO 2 — L’intime en partage 🎶

Chers amis,
Je suis très heureux de vous présenter PIANISSIMO 2, un nouvel album instrumental disponible dès maintenant sur YouTube.

🎼 Du piano seul, parfois. Quelques orchestrations légères, ailleurs.
Toujours cette volonté de dire l’essentiel sans en faire trop. Des émotions brutes, sincères, posées sur les touches, comme on dépose un secret.

C’est une musique de l’instant, du silence, de l’apaisement. À écouter en fin de journée, quand le monde ralentit.
Un album personnel, fait maison, que je vous offre avec le cœur.

Merci d’avance pour vos écoutes, vos partages, vos retours…
Et surtout, merci d’être là.

Avec tendresse,
Gino Baci

❤️ Vos impressions me toucheront beaucoup.



🎹 PIANISSIMO 2 — Intimacy, Shared 🎶

Dear friends,
I’m very happy to present PIANISSIMO 2, a new instrumental album now available on YouTube.

🎼 Solo piano, at times. Light orchestrations, here and there.
Always the same desire: to express the essential, without excess.
Raw, sincere emotions placed on the keys like secrets laid bare.

This is music for the moment — for silence, for stillness, for peace.
To be listened to at the end of the day, when the world slows down.
A personal, homemade album that I offer to you with all my heart.

Thank you in advance for listening, sharing, and sending your thoughts.
And above all, thank you for being here.

With tenderness,
Gino Baci

❤️ Your impressions will mean a lot to me.

Prima del sogno

Through some bracket fuckery, I somehow managed to brute force my way back into the main NGADM bracket after having technically lost in round 1. Because I've been gifted a second chance, I'm pulling out all the stops and going back to a classic style of mine - big, dramatic orchestra with an east-asian flourish. Overdone? Perhaps a little, but I love how it sounds and it's fun to write.

Here's a fun piece of trivia - the solo string instrument in this song could either be a Chinese Erhu or a Japanese Kokyū depending on your imagination, as they're both bowed string instruments and sound nearly identical. In fact, "kokyū" in Japanese can actually refer to any asian bowed string instrument - so you'd technically be correct either way.

Latest Updates: 
I do not use AI on any of my work, just blood sweat and tears, and a lot of emotion/feelings. The reason I have so much music on SC is that I love making music and it is my life. Also I love to share my work with you all, please enjoy.
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.
Please checkout my vast collection of playlists. All my best music is on there in one place. Is free to listen to or sleep with.
From 1st June 2025, celebrating 10 years of KORG KRONOS music with lots of brand new music showcasing the wonders of this iconic workstation in all it's glory. Also as a nod to the release of the KRONOS 3, which will take KORG into the next generation.
All my albums in full quality are available on Bandcamp, please check out the link below.
Have recently taken a short holiday to recharge my batteries and top up my creative juices. Thank you to all my followers for your continued support and encouragement, means the world to me.
Over 10K minutes uploaded, over 1500 tracks - am sure there is something in there for everybody to enjoy. I love making music. Hope it matters to you.
Am posting some Jarre sounding pieces as homage to my lifelong hero of electronic music, using some of the sounds and instruments he has used along the way. Jar of Jarre is my collection of memorable sounds which have changed the way we appreciate modern electro.
Keep an eye out for my new collection of 2024 Remastered best of tracks, coming soon.
New year, new start. Back on the search for good music and inspiration. Will be featuring a lot of my older work remastered this year, seems like a long time since I began my composing journey back in 2000.
Happy New Year to all my followers, May 2025 be filled with musical magic. 
Thank you for all your kind comments and support throughout 2024 I do appreciate it. Stay safe and love each other.
All my remastered best tunes from 2015 to 2023 are now available to buy on Bandcamp.
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 now amassed over 1000 tracks on SC (that's over 8000 minutes of music) and it has been a blast sharing them with you all. Next year 2025, marks the 10th anniversary of the start of my KORG journey.
Am currently putting together a remastered Anthology collection of all my best tracks from 2015 onwards. 2015 consists of a 3 volume set (Now available on Bandcamp). 2016 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2017 consists of a 4 volume set. (Available on Bandcamp) 2018 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2019 consists of a 4 volume set. (Now available on Bandcamp). 2020 consists of a 3 volume set (now available on Bandcamp).
If you would like to listen to more of Magician, especially retro older tracks please checkout Bandcamp (see link below).
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.
