The storms in Summer Bay hadn’t even subsided after Theo’s sudden death, when this week, a dramatic piece of news erupted, transforming tragedy into an eternal legacy: Remi Carter’s new recording studio has officially opened—and at its heart is a sacred item dedicated to the late artist!

Refusing to surrender to the pain of loss, Remi, along with manager Justin and Sunny, decided to turn the nascent music label “Back on Track Records” into a symbol of resilience. For Remi, pulling the plug due to the loss of his close friend and first signed artist (Theo) was simply not an option. With a powerful fighting spirit, they completed the construction of the new studio, making it a place where hope is ignited for the future.

A Fiery Legacy: The Hero’s Guitar

 

But what truly moved all of Summer Bay was how the trio decided to honor Theo. They were determined to ensure that Theo’s presence would be an integral part of the label’s new journey. And they found the answer in a simple object that held an entire tragic story: Theo’s guitar!

This guitar was more than just an instrument. Justin had gifted it to Theo after learning that his abusive stepfather, Dmitri, had once smashed Theo’s own guitar. The new guitar was Justin’s promise that: “This house, your house, never thinks music is a waste of time”. It symbolized Theo’s liberation, his journey to reclaim his passion and artistic freedom after years of suppression.

 

Tears of Triumph

 

The final decision was made during an emotional meeting. Though the gesture was painful for Leah and Justin, they knew it was the right thing to do. Leah and Justin suggested that the guitar be permanently displayed in the studio, serving as an unending source of inspiration.

Remi and Sunny immediately agreed. Together, they mounted the guitar on the wall, placing a small plaque beside it engraved with the powerful words: “In this house music is never a waste of time”.

This is not just an act of remembrance but a powerful declaration. It transforms pain into motivation, ensuring that Theo’s rebellious spirit, passion, and talent will live on, inspiring every artist who walks into that recording room. The guitar is now the lighthouse for “Back on Track Records,” a living testament that music always triumphs over tyranny, and Theo’s legacy will continue to shape the future of Summer Bay!
