Hi, I’m Sebastian Korsak—though some know me as BlackPianoCat. I’m a Greek-Polish scientist by day, working in physics and computational biology, but music, and especially the piano, has always been where my heart truly lives.

I don’t play to impress or seek the spotlight. I play to tell stories, to soothe, to connect. These are my personal compositions and interpretations—small reflections of emotion that words often can’t quite express.

If any of this music resonates with you, you’re warmly invited to stay, listen, and be part of this little world I’m creating, note by note.

Hello my dear friends. I seek and love music that gives me goosebumps.  I 'm looking for it through experiments with rhythms, sounds and harmony.  So far I haven't succeeded yet.  Music is my life. I’m Fred, 70 years, born in Diest, Belgium on August 8, 1954.  I am grateful for all the given likes and comments, for all the listeners and followers here on SC or on all the other streaming services where my music is publiced. I’m also grateful to all these artists and musicians who put their beautiful music on SC.  Thanks everyone.  Keep it healthy.  Take care of each other and sow peace!

From Wikipedia: In Greek mythology, a satyr, sater (UK /ˈsætə/, US /ˈseɪtər/;[1] Greek: σάτυρος satyros,[2] pronounced [sátyros]) is one of a troop of ithyphallic male companions of Dionysus with goat-like features and often permanent erection.[3] Early artistic representations sometimes include horse-like legs, but in 6th-century BC black-figure pottery human legs are the most common.[4] In Roman Mythology there is a concept similar to satyrs, with goat-like features: the faun, being half-man, half-goat, who roamed the woods and mountains.[5] In myths they are often associated with pipe-playing. Greek-speaking Romans often used the Greek term saturos when referring to the Latin faunus, and eventually syncretized the two. (The female "Satyresses" were a later invention of poets.)
With the characters A and T, my initials, stops every similarity between this description and myself.

MOON AND ARIES (Jordana and Tom) is a genre-defying, retro-futuristic music duo creating emotionally immersive soundscapes that blur the lines between synth-pop, chill electronica, cinematic soul, trip-hop, and jazz-infused lounge. Combining poetic lyricism with lush production and smooth vocal interplay, their songs feel timeless - yet unmistakably modern. 

Driven by their shared passion for storytelling through sound, Moon and Aries deliver music that connects on a deeply human level. 

Their catalog explores universal themes: 
transformation, empowerment, longing, healing, and spiritual awakening. Whether it’s a quiet moment of self-reflection, a triumphant personal shift, or a love scene that needs to glow from within - Moon and Aries provide the perfect sonic companion. 
Each track is built with sync in mind: strong emotional arcs, memorable melodic hooks, dynamic instrumental sections, and vocal textures that range from intimate whispers to anthemic declarations.  
With a sound often compared to artists like Sade, A-ha, Portishead, Depeche Mode, and Massive Attack, Moon and Aries offer a sonic palette that blends nostalgia with new-world 
optimism - ideal for storytelling that needs depth, mood, and meaning. 
All songs are 100% one-stop and available with full mixes, instrumentals, stems, and lyric sheets.
 
Genres: Retro-Futuristic Pop, Synthpop, Trip-Hop, R&B/Soul, Chill Electronica, Cinematic Soul, Electro-Jazz, Electronic, Retro wave, 80s

Welcome to my SoundCloud page.  It serves as a jar of sorts, to catch the musical ideas flying around in my head!  My hope is that you find something to listen to that offers encouragement and refreshes your soul.

All music is original with a few exceptions (such as new arrangements of old Christmas songs, etc.).  All music has been composed and performed with absolutely no AI-assistance.  I primarily perform and record on the Yamaha MODX8, with an occasional recording on my older Yamaha Clavinova.  You will also find collaborative works on my page, featuring some other amazing musicians on SoundCloud.

It is a joy to share my music with you, and I hope you enjoy listening!
