Indigo

444 Extrait

[Verse 1]
In the mirror’s gaze, a stranger stares;
A silhouette draped in borrowed airs.
Echoes of doubt—a haunting refrain;
Whispers that my triumphs are in vain.

[Pre‑Chorus]
Threads of truth unraveling fast,
Chasing shadows of a fabricated past.
Every pat on the back breeds uncertainty,
Stripped of authenticity by my own scrutiny.

[Chorus]
Imposter in my own skin,
Waging wars I can never win.
Crafting smiles to mask the dread—
A marionette with strings of lead.

[Verse 2]
Achievements stacked—a fragile tower,
Built on shifting sands that cower.
Applause fades into a silent room,
As confidence unravels in the gloom.

[Bridge]
But in the quiet, a spark ignites;
A flicker challenging the endless nights.
Could the façade be a part of me—
A chapter in my identity?

[Final Chorus – Reprise]
Imposter in my own skin,
Learning where I truly begin.
Embracing flaws, the scars I’ve earned,
Through the fire, a phoenix burned.

[Outro]
So here’s to the masks we’ve worn,
The battles fought, the selves we’ve torn.
In the mirror now, I see anew—
An imposter, yes—but also true.

[Spoken Coda – Declaration]
“Most importantly, true.”

"Imposter Syndrome" confronts the inner turmoil of perceived fraudulence—where every success feels borrowed, every accolade undeserved. Through a melancholic piano intro and measured progressions, the lyrics unveil a soul divided: crafted smiles mask dread, achievements crumble under scrutiny, and confidence shatters in silent rooms.

Yet beneath self-doubt flickers a phoenix-born resilience. The bridge ignites a subtle spark—a gentle rebellion against inner falseness—and the final chorus embraces the scars of growth. This is not denial of the mask, but an acceptance: the imposter is part of me—and through that, I become real.

The track unfolds like emotional therapy—each verse uncovers fragile layers, each chorus confronts truth, each interlude offers reflection. It’s a poetic reckoning with identity and authenticity, resonating with anyone wrestling with their reflection.

The most beautiful well written and haunting song ever made. And it worked so well with the movie. It's a must see bucket list to watch and the soundtrack. Still chokes up to this day :(

"Celestial Sovereign" (https://soundcloud.com/api_zz/celestial-sovereign) was an early highlight in my beginnings with AI experimention. A (imho) perfect progrock track came up that needed not much further production than mixing. Attempting to stimulate AI to create similar results weren't very successful, though I won't claim to have tried "everything". Anyway, I took the AI lyrics from "Celestial Sovereign" and let a new AI song creator work with them, naturally aiming for some progrock à la "Celestial Sovereign". As suspected it didn't work out. Rather mainstream quasi-progrock tracks came up. Since only the vocals impressed me, I stripped off all accompanying instrumentations and fully replaced them. This is the result.

[CHORUS]
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
“Beware the Jabberwock,
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
“Beware the Jabberwock"

[INTRO]
’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
      Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
      And the mome raths outgrabe.

[VERSE]
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
      The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
      The frumious Bandersnatch!”

[CHORUS]
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
“Beware the Jabberwock,
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
“Beware the Jabberwock"

[PRE-CHORUS]
He took his vorpal sword in hand;
      Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
      And stood awhile in thought.

[BRIDGE]
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
      The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
      And burbled as it came!

[CHORUS]
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
“Beware the Jabberwock,
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
“Beware the Jabberwock"

[VERSE]
One, two! One, two! And through and through
      The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
      He went galumphing back.
He left it dead, and with its head
      He went galumphing back.

[Celesta solo]

[OUTRO]
“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
      Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
      He chortled in his joy.
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
      He chortled in his joy.

Beware the JabberFolk, my son!

A silent call...
A silent call...

My heart, a room of wide and empty space
A garden blooming in a frozen place
It’s learned to breathe in this devoted air
And doesn’t long for what is not right there

Maybe this waiting is the truest part
Maybe this longing purifies the heart
An invisible love, a silent call
And in this emptiness,
Maybe I learn to hold it all

A patience grew inside me like a tree
That’s reaching branches not for fruit, you see
But for the light, the endless, open sky
To feel the stars, to learn the reason why

Maybe this waiting is the truest part
Maybe this longing purifies the heart
An invisible love, a silent call
And in this emptiness,
Maybe I learn to hold it all

And if you came, a presence, solid, true,
Would this whole world I've built collapse for you?
This fragile branch that reaches for the grace,
Would it just break in a fulfilled embrace?

Maybe this waiting is the truest part
Maybe this longing purifies the heart
An invisible love, a silent call
And in this emptiness,
Maybe I learn to hold it all

A silent call... growing louder...
A silent call... in the quiet hour...

A Silent Call

This song isn't just a journey for the protagonists of the story being told here. 
It's also a musical rollercoaster through various styles of modern music: 
from jazz, to nu-soul, electronic, and ambient, the wild ride continues through rock and progressive rock. 

Enjoy the ride. :-)




White sail on a blue sky
Summer laughter floating by
On a sea of glass we fly
Just my friends and I

There’s an island in the haze
Calling through the days
Oh, the island in the haze
Singing in a craze
Setting hearts ablaze
For the end of days

Then a shadow, then a shade
An island that the fog has made
A promise whispered, unafraid
A secret to invade

There’s an island in the haze
Calling through the days
Oh, the island in the haze
Singing in a craze
Setting hearts ablaze
For the end of days

No map to show the way
To this forgotten, green display
We heard the call and came to play
And now we want to stay

There’s an island in the haze
Calling through the days
Lost inside its maze
In the siren's gaze
Setting hearts ablaze
For the end of days

Can you feel it in the air?
A song beyond compare
A beautiful despair
A trap, a velvet snare

(Sirens singing)

The laughter died, the sun went cold
A story left untold
We made a vow, a band of gold
To claim the souls they sold

We turned the ship against the tide
With all our fear inside
No room to run, no place to hide
With truth as our guide

We sail into the haze
To end these wicked days
We'll break you from the maze
And set your heart ablaze
We're coming to bring you home
You are not alone!
You are not alone!

Their melody, a woven lie
Beneath a broken sky
We brought a silence to defy
A truth that cannot die

We sail into the haze
And break you from the maze
We're coming to bring you home
Where you truly belong
You are not alone!
You are not alone!

And for a moment, heaven-sent
Their wicked music bent
The ancient, evil magic spent
The fragile spell was rent
We saw your eyes, you heard our call
And watched the curtain fall

We sailed into the haze
Destroyed their evil maze
We came to bring you home
Where you truly belong
You are not alone!
You are not alone!

We build a garden on the highest hill
We think we're safe now, standing oh so still
We say we're saving everything we see
But turn it backwards, you and me

There's an echo in the air
A feeling of despair
An angel watching from above
We kill the things we love
Oh, it's the wrong prayer in the night
We're chasing the wind, and losing the light
A blind faith, a beautiful mistake
For a sleeping giant we refuse to wake

The winds we follow, they will fade and die
While a long, cold winter learns to fly
Our paper castles, they will never last
The future's frozen in the past

There's an echo in the air
A feeling of despair
An angel watching from above
We kill the things we love
Oh, it's the wrong prayer in the night
We're chasing the wind, and losing the light
A blind faith, a beautiful mistake
For a sleeping giant we refuse to wake

Deep in the atom, a star's lonely heart
We've been afraid of it right from the start
A fire eternal, steady and true
But we want the fleeting, the shiny and new

Oh, the wrong prayers in the night
Oh, we’ve chased the wind, and lost the light
A blind faith, a stupid mistake
For a sleeping giant we refused to wake
Oh, it's the wrong prayer in the night
We're chasing the wind, and losing the light
A blind faith, a beautiful mistake
For a sleeping giant we refused to wake
For a sleeping giant we refused…

Being musician and artist "since ages", the last two decades and all the developments in digital music broadened my interests and activities in doing music actively and passively. Not being shy of any genre (OK, leave off some Punk and Extreme Metal derivates) I engage in composing, arranging, mixing and collaborating. 

Oh, and I do all my artwork and designs as well. And as you may notice I regard AI as a friendly helper.

Have a few looks & listens into my repertoire and eventually gain some insights. I'm always open for collabs if the the interests match ...

Formed in March 2022, Socially Suspect has garnered attention around Milwaukee for their unpredictable sound and lively performances.

With influences spanning genres including progressive rock, pop punk, power pop, and jazz fusion, Socially Suspect brings a unique brand of alt-rock to the Milwaukee music scene.

Socially Suspect’s own members can't quite put a finger on their genre, but that doesn't matter. The band's songs are as diverse as they are catchy—a medley of groovy basslines, intricate lead guitars, energetic drums, and anything-goes attitude.

The band's lineup includes Steven Baird (vocals, guitar), Tyler Potter (bass, vocals), Jonathon Sadowski (drums, vocals), and Tera Willis (lead guitar).

Let me share my journey with you. I started DJing at 16, playing school events in Sydney alongside my mate David. By the time I was 19, I had broken into the Sydney club scene, finally stepping into the career I had always dreamed of. From the very beginning, I was passionate about playing uplifting music—there's nothing worse than being in a club with a DJ who doesn't know how to get the crowd moving.

Over time, I made my way into the heart of Sydney’s nightlife. The 90s were the golden era for DJs—the energy was electric, the music was explosive, and the vibe was unforgettable. I had the privilege of being trained by some of the best and working with top talent in the city. That’s where I truly found my groove.

Honestly, I wish the magic of 90s music had never faded, but times changed. In the early 2000s, I hung up my headphones and turned to producing club tracks, especially since so many artists weren’t releasing proper club mixes. Still, I never stopped DJing—I just evolved and moved into a new realm.

Musician from Brittany,
 
I'm a composer, performer and music teacher, recording my first EP ( You can hear some extract on the present page )

Blues-rock and Fusion player, with a touch of Prog influence

Project KT (standing for Knowledge Transfer) is the solo creative project of Kareem Tyler, a multidimensional being navigating the constraints of the physical realm through immersive, genre-blending artistry. Blending progressive rock, symphonic fusion, post‑punk ambience, and a touch of metallic catharsis, Project KT crafts cinematic soundscapes rooted in raw poetry, violin-led instrumentation, and emotional tension.

After a life-altering accident that caused partial vocal cord paralysis and ended his ability to play piano, Kareem reinvented his creative process with digital composition and visual art—turning personal trauma into transcendent expression. His music now explores loss, longing, and rebirth through long-form storytelling and orchestral depth. Though Project KT remains firmly his own vision—overseeing lyricism, production, and artwork—he is actively seeking a female vocalist collaborator to give voice to the remaining untold emotional core.

With a vibrant presence on Instagram and BandLab, Project KT continues building cross-medium narratives that fuse sound, image, and meaning. If you are a vocalist or visual artist drawn to gothic romanticism, cinematic drama, and genre-fluid experimentation, Project KT invites you into the echo.

"Redder" is a palindrome. Like "racecar" or "level". These pieces of music ain't.



Prog Non Stop is a radio program especially for progressive and symphonic music lovers. Every weekend there will be a new playlist and in this hour you will come across a selection of the best songs from the prog history.
