Day by day
This song is dedicated to this period of life, rebirth and winter warmth. A touching message, linked to our suffering, to our despair, to hope but above all, to joyful memories. It is aimed at all those who have always found the strength to get up after a fall! Our song is called: Day by Day.
I wrote it together with Andrea Felli, while my brother was in the hospital, in a coma, fighting for his life. Unfortunately he passed away and I am very sorry about it. So, I decided to share this song with Gemelli Art, hospital in Rome. Thanks to all the doctors, nurses, operators and the entire Gemelli ART team. To all those who know how to appreciate the value of every single second.
Christine Joan ha voluto donare il ❤️ a noi e ai nostri piccoli questo brano per la Festa di Natale di bambini e adolescenti. “Giorno per giorno” i nostri pazienti devono separarsi per i minuti del trattamento dalle persone che amano e anche da noi; tutto questo è davvero complicato, ma indispensabile alla Radioterapia. È solo quando dentro di loro riescono a percepire forte e salda la presenza di qualcuno che non possono vedere e che per un tempo sarà un po’ lontano. Soltanto in quel momento si può realizzare questa magia dell’attesa. Il riuscire a comprendere che in fondo la persona che amiamo è sempre lì con noi, il nostro cuore lo sa.
Un ringraziamento a tutti i medici, infermieri, operatori e a tutto il team.
Lettera scritta da Lisa Marconi:
Ho conosciuto Christine per caso, una persona aperta e curiosa, le ho raccontato del nostro lavoro in ospedale, dell’arte in Radioterapia, al Gemelli ART… E del percorso dei piccoli pazienti oncologici. Christine ascoltava con gli occhi pieni del desiderio di chi vuole donarsi al mondo. Così, era già pronta a mettersi a disposizione attraverso la sua arte.
In particolare, come se stesse aspettando questo momento, mi ha parlato di Day by Day, il brano scritto per suo fratello, una persona amata che poi improvvisamente non c’era più.
Lei ha voluto donare a noi e ai nostri piccoli questo brano, in particolare per la Festa di Natale di bambini e adolescenti.
Inzialmente abbiamo pensato che fosse una bellissima canzone, e che Veronica Frizzo avrebbe potuto animarla con i suoi disegni, ma ascoltandola ogni giorno ho sentito profondamente che dentro questo suo dono c’è un significato che va oltre noi, al di là di quello che avremmo potuto immaginare.
Ogni volta che la ascolto penso che “giorno per giorno” i nostri pazienti (i piccoli in particolare) devono separarsi per i minuti del trattamento dalle persone che amano e anche da noi; tutto questo è davvero complicato, ma indispensabile alla Radioterapia.
È solo quando dentro di loro riescono a percepire forte e salda la presenza, la presenza di qualcuno che non possono vedere e che per un tempo sarà un po’ lontano. Soltanto un quel momento si può realizzare questa magia dell’attesa. Il riuscire a comprendere che in fondo la persona che amiamo è sempre lì con noi, il nostro cuore lo sa.

Stikatsy Label
Music is my passion, my fire, my voice. I created Stikatsylabel to express more than just a business. This label is a messenger of deep values that I believe in.
Respect, love, and determination are the foundations of everything I do. Every note, every melody, every musical production reflects these principles. Music is a universal language that allows me to communicate emotions, stories, and connections with the artists that I work with.
My goal is to create something meaningful. Not only for myself, but for those who listen with their hearts and souls. For those who seek an authentic experience. For those who value honesty, because that’s what binds us together. My only truth is that I’m a believer in God’s grace. My mission is to deepen this understanding within me and to become a source of inspiration, an experience that touches the souls of those who encounter me. Passion guides me as I explore notes and chords, trying to capture the essence of life itself. Only when we let go of hypocrisy and superficiality, we can see from all perspectives. Stikatsylabel seeks knowledge, not wasted time.
Welcome to my world, where music is more than a job: it’s a mission.

This is me
This is me, the title of this song that came to me in one of the most difficult times of my life. I had to face the reality that I was a single mother now. It was a huge mental challenge. I didn’t know what to expect, but I felt a surge of strength in my heart to keep going stronger than ever.
Maybe that’s what motherhood is. Maybe we all have it from birth. Whatever it is, I wanted to capture it in this video clip with my son. I wanted to share this journey with him. I wanted to make something meaningful for this occasion. I wanted him to know that I would always be there for him. No matter what happens, we’ll face it together, because, “This is me”. A child who became a girl, and a girl who grew into a woman who knows her spirit is the best version of perfection in becoming a mother in all of her shades. This is me, is a glimpse of what I wanted us to experience.
Almost as if we were celebrating his father’s departure from this world, but also his transformation into spirit.
Inedit World Music Festival
The Inedited World Music Festival was a project that I conceived, directed and produced with my dear friend, Mr. Jean-Paul Maunick, also known as “Bluey”, the leader and founder of the legendary group Incognito. A festival born with the aim of offering an opportunity to artists from 16 to 60 years old, coming from every musical genre. My motivation for creating this festival was to celebrate authenticity, after experiencing many other festivals. I had only one mission for this festival, finding the Absolute. To achieve this, I decided to be different, a bit braver, and to have only two judges: Federico Mecozzi and Mr. Jean Paul Maunick. They were two amazing musicians from different cultural backgrounds. By bringing them together as judges and co-producers, I reached the excellence that I was looking for.
Because to select the absolute, I had to work with artists-judges who shared the same passion, the same profession, and the same inner spirit. So I created a strong connection between creativity and reality in one big jam session concerts- First glimpse with Federico Mecozzi and then final live show before Bluey. He chose his absolute.
The beauty above all was that in each stage of our festival, there was a concert with one of the judges. The artists had an opportunity to connect with these superstars by opening their concerts. The excitement and tension was truly an amazing experience for both artists and judges.
I organised three very important appointments before everything got frozen. Still today our festival awaits new opportunities. Anyone interested in taken on a collaboration please dont hesitate in contacting me.
Jamit Music Production
When I was creating Jamit Music Production, it was what I would call one of the worst periods of my life. I was facing many challenges and losses, but I also showed resilience and determination. I always kept my spirit and my vision close to me. Jamit was a rebirth, a reflection of who I had become and what I now believe in. After the terrible experience with my ex-label and group ICT- Inspiration Colour Trash, I decided to return to the music industry with more greatness, boldness, and pride. Someone who never surrenders.
Jamit was a unique creation, magnetic and passionate, I had learned from my past experience and wanted to create this time a spiritual comeback.
I can assure you that it is in times like this, that I discovered my true strength and courage. I discovered that I had a, “gift: and that I was going to use it to uplift, first of all, myself and the artists that I was collaborating with. I share this story because it is encouraging to know that when you believe in yourself and have the skills to back up your dreams, no one can stop you but yourself.
Jamit music in no time was all over Italy. I started working with amazing people, seeing my face on buses, performing in top theatres, creating projects with inspiring people, writing novels, manuscripts and directing my own theatre shows, concerts, events and concepts.
All I can say now is: if you can dream it, you can achieve it!
