Blue Blue Blue - Symphonic Rock
Blue Blue Blue - Cinematic Orchestral Arrangement
Blue Blue Blue - Cinematic Orchestral Arrangement
- This heartfelt and deeply personal project has been a lifetime in the making.
Within this song, I've poured my emotions, fears, guilt, and profound sadness stemming from the unexpected wave of depression that engulfed me as I witnessed my little sister's courageous battle with cancer coming to an end.
- It's not a pop song; instead, it encapsulates the discomfort and monotony that characterised those last 36 hours we spent together. It is my story, outside the rules of songwriting, but it takes you on my journey from sadness to madness to here!
- We lost her twin brother 35 years earlier. The song's artwork depicts them as youthful angels alongside an Owl, which holds great spiritual significance to me. This visual symbolises my sincere desire to protect them, a role I wish I had fulfilled. As a young teenager, I left home and missed out on witnessing their growth and being by their side.
- The song's title comes from a conversation with Debbs. She asked, "I suppose you are wondering what my favourite colour is?
It's Blue, Blue, Blue."

- This version is a stand-alone “Cinematic Orchestrated Arrangement”, a collaboration between Harvey Summers and me. I accidentally fell on the idea when I turned off the rock instruments in the final mix. I then imagined a different orchestrated version that had to be its own story, deserving of its own life in the universe—a fraternal twin and oh-so poetic!

SnakeHips'n'LizardLips - INXS Tribute
Down for the Count - (The WAR Mix 2022)
Down for the Count - (The WAR Mix 2022)
- "SnakeHips'n'LizardLips" is Ma9Na's unique and personal tribute to the man Michael Hutchence and the group of fine musicians that were INXDS, a tribute that is distinctly Ma9Na in its execution and interpretation.
- Ma9Na, a New Zealand-born Australian musician, was profoundly shaped by the INXS sound, especially their earlier works and the Australian Pub Rock scene.
- Ma9Na weaves a dual narrative, delving into the private man that few knew while celebrating the infectious energy and joy that Michael Hutchence and INXS brought to the world, etching a musical legacy in history.

Down for the Count - (The WAR Mix 2022)
- The 2022 version of Ma9Na's debut single, "Down for the Count," has been released. It offers a reimagined and remixed take on this Anthemic, Anti-War,pro-humanity song.
- Hard-hitting lyrics, rock-infused guitars, swirling Hammond organs, duelling guitar solos, and retro brass are all bound together with Ma9Na's drums, bass, and percussion, providing the perfect backbone for this anthemic voice of a generation.
