The Odyssey and Odysseus, its protagonist, are symbols of life’s journey as a path of transformation. It is the hero’s journey: a process of discovering who we are, what our true nature is and what the journey itself means.
For me, we are all heroes at different stages of that journey. We have a single life, yet an eternal one, and many journeys. Each journey, like each life, is unique. When we accept that every one of us is singular and unrepeatable, we finally understand that no life is small or more or less important than another: we all have our place, a story to live and, if we choose, a story to tell.
Stories of heroes are full of passion and pain, and it is only when we accept who we are, face our dragons and discover our treasures that transformation takes place. The hero’s journey is an inner journey in which we gradually recognise ourselves and discover the gifts that move us forward.
This is not a journey to be hurried. It is woven through dedication, and its richness lies in the journey itself. It means entering the unconscious, the seas of which we are made, and moving onwards. As we move, we transform; we undergo our own alchemy, reworking processes and renewing our physical and energetic instruments. This is how we progress and learn to see that behind every shadow there is always light — the light of which we ourselves are made.
For this heroic journey, any map, chart or tool that helps us travel towards ourselves is welcome. That is the purpose behind all the music I compose: to make the inner journey easier, so that each of us can gradually discover our own hero’s path.
Each album has its own guiding thread which, like a map, leads you through different corners of the soul, allowing you to enter yourself by different routes and approach who you are from several perspectives. All the music has been created with the anatomy and physiology of the human energetic structures in mind, and every track is specifically designed to encourage expanded states of awareness through which you can begin to discover the hero within.
Through the vibration of sound, each track contains an entire energetic universe capable of carrying you inward. You can listen to the music as a powerful tool for working with yourself: this sonic universe invites you into your soul, down into your depths, across your inner seas or towards imaginary planets where answers to inner questions may be found, before descending gently again and continuing your path on this planet with a fresh mind and a lighter heart, ready to become the true protagonist of your own life.
If you prefer to use it as ambient music, it is ideal for mindfulness, yoga, Reiki, therapy, massage and similar practices, or simply for creating a relaxing, introspective atmosphere in any space.
Recommendations: Always listen at a volume that feels comfortable. Never force yourself to listen to a track. If you do not feel at ease while listening, leave it for another time and change the track or the activity. Do not listen while carrying out any dangerous activity or one that requires your full attention.
If you want to experience the vibration of the sound more directly, you can place the speaker of your iPod or your headphones against the area of the body you wish to work with. The body perceives sound as vibration through all its cells, so at certain times it may be helpful to place that vibration directly on the body rather than listening through headphones or as ambient sound.

Enjoy the journey,
