How long have I been gone?
Weeks, months, years?
Ship on fire
Burning in the night
Illuminates the sky
In the absence of light
Slowly sailing to a place
In my mind
Leaving everything far behind
Leaving it all behind
I understand life backwards
But I have to live it forwards
I understand life backwards
But I have to live it forwards
Time is not a river
Flowing only downstream
Time is not a hallway
Going one way or the other
Time is not an ocean
Moving in all directions
Time is a jungle
Filled with scary monsters
My ship is on fire
Drifting to a place
In my mind
My ship is on fire 
Leaving it all behind
We understand life backwards
But we have to live it forwards
We understand life backwards
But we have to live it forwards

Ship On Fire

Marco Lucchi & Jacques Lemaire - studio n*1 [90bpm] dorian mode

A revival in memory of both fallen heroes: David Bowie writing about seeing Marc Bolan perform for the first time. 

Jaime J Ross @jaime0223 performed the Grandest Inspirational Piano with additional Grandiose Embellishments by myself
Rick Medlock @rick-4-1 delivered the Perfectly Delicious Drums & Terrific Tambourine
Phil McWalter @phil-mcwalter snuck in all The Other Stuff whilst Tony Visconti was up a pair of steps painting the entrance hall ceiling white...

Remastered 9th May 2025 as it was sounding a little brittle I thought...

Lady Stardust

Well people stared at the makeup on his face
Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace
The boy in the bright blue jeans
Jumped up on the stage and
Lady Stardust sang his songs
Of darkness and disgrace

And he was alright, the band was all together
Yes he was alright, the song went on forever
Yes he was awful nice
Really quite out of sight
And he sang all night long

Femme fatales emerged from shadows
To watch this creature fair
Boys stood upon their chairs
To make their point of view
And I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey and
Lady Stardust sang his songs
Of darkness and dismay

And he was alright, the band was all together
Yes he was alright, the song went on forever
Yes he was awful nice
Really quite paradise
And he sang all night long

Ooh how I sighed when they asked if I knew his name

And he was alright, the band was all together
Yes he was alright, his song went on forever
And he was awful nice
Really quite paradise and
He sang all night, all night long

Butterfly

Down in the hall, she sits alone
Watching the world outside 
Finally, a place to call her own
Leave troubles behind

A suitcase packed with hope and dreams 
Light as it seems
But heavy is the chest of one who leaves
Behind the scenes

Friends and family came to 
Say goodbye, envying her life 
See you soon, till the next time
Go girl, fly high

Once she closed the door her life was
Never like it was before
As a butterfly she spreads her wings
Remembering days of yore
When in a cocoon she was confined 
And worked so hard till she could soar 

One step further, day by day
 This is her fate, no time to wait 
Chasing stars and healing scars
But there’s a price that she must pay
Every winding turn, a lesson learned
And dreams are lost along the way 

When you’re on the top, but feeling down
Why keep the crown
For the weight of gold can bind
Your soul and mind
Oh my
Why

A kingdom and a throne
But nothing feels like home, home

Once she closed the door another opened
But she wanted more
More than gold, and get a hold
Of all the friends she had before
Heal the pain and find the strength
To fly again when heart and soul are sore

Tiny butterfly, with colors bright
Dancing in the morning light
Tender wings, she sails the wind
Across the old suburban sky
Back at home, her faith is strong 
Embracing love she traveled far to find

Liminalia - ein Haiku, vorgetragen zur elektrifizierten Gitarre

I wrote this a couple of days ago and worked on the lyrics a bit then recorded just now on my phone. The starting point was thinking of a Syd Barrett lyric which mirrored Elvis "I don't care if the sun don't shine".

Yes I mind when the sun won't shine
And I must live in shadow
When the dry spell comes must carry on 
Until there's no tomorrow
Getting up I know I'll fall again
And when I'm not wanted at all 
By the grace of God I don't despair
But for goodness sake of course I care

You bet it's true and I get the blues
Whilst you suffer for nothing 
As I play kick back watch melting wax 
Then I'm late again rushing 
Falling down I know I'll rise again 
And while I'm hated I stand tall 
Had to accept life isn't fair 
But for goodness sake of course I care
For goodness sake of course I care 








 





Of Course I Care

The Birth of Infinity

Back in early 2019, I released a single called Distant Visions. After hearing it, a fan commented:
“Almost sounds like something from a second interstellar suite.”

They were referring to my 2006 album The Maestoso Interstellar Suite—a project I re-released with extended material in 2016 for its 10-year anniversary. That comment stuck with me. Did it feel like a sequel? Could it be?

I toyed with the idea. But having just expanded the suite into a double-disc format in 2016, I wasn’t sure a sequel was the right move—especially given how the original was structured as a continuous, uninterrupted journey. I had also briefly considered a vinyl edition, but the flow of the piece and the 22-minute-per-side vinyl limit made it a poor fit for that format. The experience would have been compromised.

Around that time, I released a “radio edit” version of the suite called Singularities to provide an accessible entry point. But if I returned to the suite with new material, I feared I’d be stuck doing the same thing again: a full continuous version and a separate edited version. Frankly, I didn’t want to go through that process again—and since then, I’ve moved away from long single-track formats entirely.

Even then, I was already thinking about vinyl-friendly runtimes, aiming to keep my future projects under 44 minutes so they could fit comfortably on a single LP. I’ve also significantly upgraded my gear and virtual instrument libraries since that time, giving me access to orchestral and hybrid textures I could only dream of back then. Now I have the tools—but what should I do with them?

I thought: Maybe I don’t need a sequel at all. Maybe it’s not about making The Maestoso Interstellar Suite Part II, or Return to Maestoso, or anything like that. Maybe I just need to reimagine the entire idea as something ongoing—something open.

Looking back, I always felt I had to make compromises when producing the 10-year edition. Some sounds weren’t what I was hearing in my head. Hardware limitations forced me to bounce tracks just to finish mixing. I wanted that big, lush, hybrid orchestral sound—and I couldn’t quite get there.

Now I can.

And I’ve got older projects—like La Famille Du Solénoïde (The Family of Sol)—waiting for a modern update. Thematically, they fit perfectly.

So I’ve made a decision:
I’m not making a sequel to The Maestoso Interstellar Suite.

Instead, I’m creating something bigger.

Introducing Infinity

Infinity is an evolving series. A collection of volumes. A universe of sound that has no end—only pauses between stars. It’s not a sequel. It’s not a remix. It’s a living archive of exploration—part ambient, part orchestral, part space music, and completely me.

And to start, I’ll revisit the music that inspired it all.

I’ll go back and refine The Maestoso Interstellar Suite one final time—polish the edges, rework the structure to be vinyl-compatible, and finally bring it closer to what I always heard in my head.

But I won’t just re-release it.

I’ll rebrand it.

The Journey Begins

The Infinity series begins with:

Infinity Volume I – The Maestoso Interstellar Suite

Infinity Volume II – Singularities

Each will stand on its own—but together, they form the beginning of something open-ended. Something I can return to any time inspiration calls.

Infinity has no final tracklist. No end. Only volumes.

And when I’m ready, I’ll add another.

Maybe it’s a crazy idea. But that’s okay—I’m doing this for me.
And I hope you’ll enjoy the journey too.

Movement III (Inertial Frame of Reference)

This track delivers a melancholic yet hopeful piano melody, gracefully weaving through ethereal pads and a subtle, laid-back drum beat. It evokes a serene atmosphere perfect for quiet reflection, offering a dreamy soundscape ideal for unwinding or deep thought.
