Loose beat poetry fused with ravaged vocals on new Michele Ducci single ‘Hic’

‘Hic’ (Latin for ‘here’) is the third single from the debut solo album by former M+A and Santii member, Michele Ducci. The track is a more experimental departure from the rest of the album, fusing loose, percussive Beat poetry with ravaged vocals.
According to Ducci, “‘Hic’ came to visit me towards the end of SIVE’s recordings. I was listening to the tapes, it was night, the bathroom in the house had flooded and I had lost my voice. Not being able to continue recording the other songs because of the hoarse and broken voice I decided to make a new one exactly with hoarse and broken voice. I started improvising recording myself without instruments and only with what was left of my voice.
“Keeping in mind as canvas some verses by the poet Henry De Régnier I began the musical navigation with this sort of indirect free speech that revolves around the Copernican question of a taking place = x, a ‘hic’ more than a ‘now’, not extensive, but intensive, which is the root of every extended space. An immense threshold which is like a shadow “qui se retire ou s’allonge, selon l’heure du jour qui croît ou du jour qui décline, Marque le cours du temps et la saison divine où l’aube est toujours claire et le soir toujours long.”
“In two hours the song was done with some addition of drums and piano. And the nine-song album became a ten-song album…And with my vocal exhaustion I happily looked upon it as a kind of bizarre drunken Armstrong. I am still grateful for that experience!!!!”.
Accompanying the single is a video directed by Marco Catapano, which was filmed in Greece between Paxos and Corfù.
Michele Ducci’s album will be released on 7th June on CD in a colour printed card wallet as well as digitally. Pre-order CD here:

GINO BLACK RELEASES IMMERSIVE INSTRUMENTAL SINGLE “THE DREAMER”
THE DREAMER – A cinematic journey for visionary minds, blending ambient soul, lo-fi textures, and hip-hop rhythm.

Every now and then, an instrumental comes along that doesn’t just play in the background — it speaks, it moves, it stirs something ancient and unnamed within you. Gino Black’s latest release, “THE DREAMER,” is exactly that kind of sonic experience. It isn’t just a track — it’s a soundtrack for visionaries, an audio canvas painted with colors you’ve only seen behind closed eyes.
A Journey Through the Subconscious
Clocking in at just under four and a half minutes, THE DREAMER unfolds like a meditation — equal parts therapeutic and cinematic. From the opening chords, you’re suspended in a cloud of lo-fi ambiance, textured synth layers, and soulful keys that beckon you inward. It’s as if Gino Black cracked open the subconscious and translated its language into rhythm.
The beat is subtle, never intrusive, but it pulses like a quiet heartbeat — steady, deliberate, and full of intent. There are no vocals here, and none are needed. Every note is its own verse. Every chord change is a plot twist in a story only the listener can truly understand.
This is music that trusts its listener. It’s not here to instruct or entertain in a traditional sense. It’s here to accompany you — wherever you need to go, mentally or emotionally.
A Sonic Manifesto
Gino Black, known for his unique fusion of cinematic hip-hop, soul, and ambient production, has built a sonic identity that leans heavily on emotional gravity. With THE DREAMER, he deepens that identity. It’s minimalistic, but never simple. Each sound is intentional, and the spaces between are just as powerful as the notes themselves.
There’s a philosophical quality to this release. It asks the listener
What does it mean to dream, especially in a world that demands you stay awake, alert, and grinding 24/7?
This track doesn’t offer answers. Instead, it invites you to rest, to visualize, to imagine yourself beyond your circumstances — something revolutionary in today’s overstimulated culture.

A Reflection of the Artist
Behind the music is Gino Black, the South Florida-based producer, artist developer, and founder of Powerblast Worldwide. Formerly known for his cinematic rap collaborations and motivational podcast MUSIC THERAPY & MOTIVATION, Gino Black has become something of an underground philosopher-producer — the kind of artist who blends discipline with depth, hustle with healing.
He’s produced hits for artists like Ari Martin, She Loves No One, B0JACK, Cutty B. Spooky, and BOMBTHREAT, and his solo catalog reflects a man who has lived, struggled, evolved — and most importantly, learned how to articulate emotion without words.
In an industry still dominated by viral hooks and algorithmic trends, THE DREAMER feels like an act of quiet rebellion. It’s art for the sake of expansion — not just artistic, but human expansion.
Final Thoughts
THE DREAMER isn’t for everyone — and that’s its power. It’s not fast food for the ears. It’s a slow-cooked meal for the soul. It demands your presence. It rewards your stillness.
Whether you’re journaling under moonlight, visualizing your next big move, or just trying to breathe deeper than yesterday, this track provides the perfect sonic space to do it in.
⭐ RATING: 9.3 / 10

- Late-night drives
