This instrumental tells a tale somehow, there is a distinct narrative arc in here that keeps the attention going. ANd no it's not the lady in the track art, however pleasant to look at ;) Although her outfit too has a tale to tell....

amazing work, Ian - some great transitions & I love the percussion & fx!

Very nice melodies and great arrangement!

Man with a mission or woman? You got both ends covered! ;)  Tight as>>

Nice Mission Airy position, Ian!  😼😺

That's a subtle juice harp in the background that's spring loaded! Ha ha! Comes in handy for bending a pitch! >>

-------- Lyrics -----------
Mekušca ogroman strah obuzme
Kad god prođe
Pored mračne pećine
U njoj žive gladne zveri zle
Koje bi puža rado 
U slast pojele

I hodača brzih 
Mora da se pazi
Jer žurna noga nehotice 
Može da ga zgazi

Metn'o  je na  usne svoje  ruž
I krenuo hrabro na put puž

Kišobran je poneo 
Od padavina da ga spasi
Ukoliko jaka kiša
Krene kućicu da kvasi

Posebne držače
Na ljušturi ima
Postaviće na njih
Pocinkovan oluk od lima

Da kroz cev odvede
Višak vode negde
Da kroz cev ode
Brzo mnogo vode

Na kućici rupa mala
Mesto je gde prokišnjava
Enterijer mokar
Buđav je i štrokav

Majstora je našao
U poslednjem času
Što krpi stručno rupe 
Koristeći glet masu

Bezbrižna mu sada
Po pljusku svaka šetnja
Hektolitri vode s neba
Više nisu pretnja

This song’s about a bloke I know.  He tends to find life a bit difficult because he overly frets about stuff.  I mean, you and me might worry we’ll lose our loved-ones in some monstrous accident, but he’s the kind who’ll drive himself into towering anxiety about a remark he remembers making in 1973.  

So as a result, I suppose you’d say he’s something of a recluse, but will occasionally put in a surprise appearance, and invariably gets the very warmest of welcomes.  But although he does want to be, he’s not back.

Gordon has done such superb work on this song - he’s captured everything it is about and so much more.  Gal and me are incredibly lucky to be able to work with such a fine musician - he makes the process so pleasurable and so easy.

NOT BACK

Alone again on my own
I don't know where the time has gone
But I'm not back
And I'm not back again

Words of friendship in my head
Too many spaces with nothing said
But I'm not back
And I'm not back again

CHORUS:
I don't know who I want to be
It's not me
I don't know who I want to see
It's not me
It's not me

Many friends say they understand
Distant echoes of a silent band
But I'm not back
And I'm not back again

There's no witness to the tears I've cried
No Samaritan will live by my side
But I'm not back 
And I'm not back again

CHORUS

Waking silence a constant voice 
Answer questions not always by choice
But I'm not back 
And I'm not back again

Much to do but so much pain
Straining muscles inside my brain 
But I'm not back
And I'm not back again

Middle instrumental break

CHORUS

Waiting moments a chance to breathe
Thinner air makes it harder to achieve 
But I'm not back 
And I'm not back again

Sideways thinking but nothing heard
One voice to keep you happy another voice to keep it blurred 
But I'm not back
And I'm not back again

No I'm not back.             
And I'm not back          
Again…

Latest Updates: 
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.
