Where Shadows Cried is an introspective reflection told through the eyes of someone who grappled with depression and inner turmoil. Seen from the perspective of a mind submerged in darkness, the track blends atmospheric textures and emotional resonance to evoke the silent struggle fought beneath the surface, echoing the weight of isolation. It stands as a tribute to those who’ve been to that inner place-where shadows cry.

If you enjoyed listening, please like and repost, which would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.


Where Shadows Cried

Aimez bien vos amours aimez l'amour qui s'élève 
Sous la lumière douce d'un matin silencieux 
Une plume qui danse au gré du vent qui soulève 
Un parfum de promesse dans un ciel radieux 
Aimez l'amour qui peint des éclats d'aventure 
Au soleil des couleurs un tableau lumineux 
Un éclat de sourire une tendresse pure 
Une flamme fragile dans un monde audacieux

Aimez pour la vie

El Pianista

Original composition by Neno J.
Electric guitar Gibson Les Paul Studio, recorded directly using multi effect Hotone Ampero 100, Guitar Rig 5, November 2025.
This nostalgic blues came to me these days as a reminder of the early sixties, the guitars of Chet Atkins, Peter Green and others without whom I would never play guitar. Thank them!

Transients

An ambient electronic piece shaped by intensity, space, and subtle glitches. It reflects on those moments when overwhelming energy disrupts our environment—like a storm cutting the power and forcing us offline. In that enforced solitude, stripped of noise and connection, we discover something essential: the chance to return to ourselves. This track invites listeners to embrace the pause, to recognize the beauty in disconnection, and to appreciate the silence as a vital part of resilience.

The Storm Put You Offline

Obscure and Tight

Arms Around Me

[Verse 1]
Your arms found me
the way dusk finds a window—
like it always meant to land there
and stop the shaking

My breath softened
right against your shoulder
like it had finally
run out of places to hide

[Pre-Chorus]
funny how the body knows
before the mind catches up
some truths arrive
as warmth

[Chorus]
And the moment you held me
everything fit—
and the world lined up for a good second
You pulled me close
and it felt like home
like something gentle
I swear the room stopped moving
when your arms wrapped around me

[Verse 2]
I’ve been touched before
but never like this—
never with patience
never listening with their hands

You didn’t say a word you didn’t have to—
your chest rising against mine
told me everything
your mouth couldn’t

[Pre-Chorus]
sometimes the safest place
is just a heartbeat you trust

[Chorus]
And the moment you held me
everything fit—
and the world lined up for a good second
You pulled me close
and it felt like home
like something gentle
I swear the room stopped moving
when your arms wrapped around me

[Bridge]
I didn’t know your touch
could steady the whole sky
didn’t know warmth 
could quiet me down
You held me tight 
and every part of me
finally believed 
I was worth holding

[Final Chorus]
The moment you held me
I knew—this is what right feels like
no rush no fear just two bodies
finding the same quiet second
you pulled me close
and I melted into you—
this small perfect thing
arms that feel like home

“Toast” 🎶  is about my past and my mistakes. It’s me owning up and also becoming a man. I hope you enjoy this surreal experience and mysterious beat. This is experimental, I blended hip-hop with pop, alternative and emo-rock to make my own  symphony!

The 2025 remastered tracks are being readied for my best of 2025 album in 2026, available January 2026.
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.

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.

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.

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.
