I have yet to hear an artist who uses natural environmental sounds to create more wonderful compositions and beautiful songs than you. I'm glad that I was able to recognize the greatness of this song and have been making music ever since. To a wonderful friend and music pioneer.

Version 1:⚔️
World War 3 is Psychological/Spiritual! I try each Day with Others, to Spread Love and Light🤍
Dark and Light Forces meet in Alchemy. This is sung from a Woman...with understanding of male/female Energies. As much as Possible from where I am now..and continue to evolve, no doubt with  parasites trying to Steal energy.

This is a Story in Truth for me, on meeting a Brotherhood that some might believe have been desensitized away from any Truth. To use and abuse for their own ends really. I had to find a balance in these Energies in a time of Extreme Terror. I survived and wish this for all others in this Fate/Hate situation.

Thank you to Dave Bayes for providing me with this brilliant backing track.

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass

This song began with Mark, who fleshed out the entire thing, from the rhythm section, to the organ that you hear in there, to the lyrics and vocals, before he laid it on the rest of us. We all got a chuckle from the tongue in cheek humor of the lyrics, and were excited to work on a song about an anachronistic adventure of a soulful caveman. 
  Ken was first up with his version of the the beat, finding the soul in the rhythm. Josh was next up, of course, using his "normie" bass for the his version of the line. Once the rhythm section was in place, it was JJ's turn to shine, adding his slick, soulful e. piano to the mix. 
  Now that they had a solid foundation on which to play, Stephen and Tez added their guitar magic to the mix. Stephen with the rhythm and the fills, and Tez with the ripping solo at the end. Mark also added the festive VST steel drums that you hear throughout at this point, too. Now that the music was laid down, he perfected his awesome vocals to complete it.
  It was in the can at that point, and just needed Mark to throw a pro sounding mix on it. Then, Stephen mastered it in his always expert way to finish it off.
  Mark wanted to record an old skool classic Soul song (a la Al Green), which he did, all on his own. But then, once he unleashed it onto the EC gang for their interpretation, they ran with it in a whole new, almost tropical direction, and it was decided to release 2 versions of the song, both of which you can find on Mark's page. Stephen does double duty on guitar for both versions. 
  This was a real team effort, even though it's really Mark's baby. The Eclectic Collective has many different methods of creating music. This one was a great exercise in trying to bring about Mark's vision. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by mistermark:

Walking through this concrete jungle
I’m just trying to stay out of the way 
just me and ol’ Rex, my furry companion 
we been fielding funky looks all day
then somebody saw me kicking rocks with my bare toes
he said buddy have you lost your way?
then I sat right down and I started to cry
and this is what I had to say…

I’m a caveman, I can’t catch a break
everybody says I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say 

Sittin’ in my man cave watching the clock crawl
there's nothing good on my tv 
my big grubby hands can’t flip thru the channels
i cant even hold a cup of tea
I was chatting on the phone making plans with a lady
a little bit of company
but my date split QUICK when I opened the door
man I wonder what’s wrong with me

I’m a caveman, I can’t catch a break now
the ladies say I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say

The big city’s fine but something’s on my mind
I feel a little incomplete
I miss my old club, for rustling up some grub
and the touch of grass below my feet
I’ve been around longer than all your creation, 
like the rocks and trees and streams
I wanna get back home, where forever I’ll roam
even if it’s only in my dreams

I’m a caveman
I can’t catch a break 
everybody says I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say

I’m a caveman, 
must be come kinda mistake
everybody says I’m so passé 
well I’m a - a caveman
It’s too much to take
but I’m gunna get back some day

Chills (2025)

Probably the most processed song I've done

Lyrics

Stand up straight and open your eyes
Can't be sure someone won't die
Things are gonna get wild around here
It's about to hit the fan
You're about to lose your mind

Soon you won't be mine
Soon you won't be mine
Soon you won't be mine

Cause I've had it up to here
Can't take anymore
I've had it up to here
Can't take anymore
Cause I've had it up to here
I can't take anymore
I've had it up to here
Can't take anymore

Soon you won't be mine
Soon you won't be mine
Soon you won't be mine

Days and weeks I remember
The good times that we had
Now you've lost your mind
I'm packing my bags
You're gonna lose your mind
Can't take anymore
You're lose your ever loving mind
You're gonna lose your mind

Soon you won't be mine
Soon you won't be mine
Soon you won't be mine

I've had it up to here
Can't take anymore
Can't take anymore
I've had it up to here

up to here

Up To Here v2

poem /copyright jo richter:

dusk carries a fearful weight
belliphonic ducks and dives
cover the wings of the triptych gate
daughtry listens, swann survives

concrete caves hold huddled minds
who would ask for less than love
pray to el and close the blinds
some play gently, some play rough
