Cast of Characters:

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – electric piano and organ

First of all, we wish the happiest Thanksgiving to all our wonderful SoundCloud friends and family. This song began as a twinkle in Artur's eye a couple months ago. Hey composed it with his Jaguar, as that is the premium surf guitar out there, and shared it with Tez, who invited the rest of us onto the project. 
   Tez, being the first on the boat, added his thrilling guitar fills and solos first. It was kind of odd the way we did this one, in fact, with the melodic/chordal instruments first, followed by the rhythm section. That said, JJ was next up to bat, adding his magical electric piano and soaring organ. Ken was first up for the backline, adding his driving drums. Josh then finally added his fretless bass to the stew. But before he was done, Josh also added the guitar solo you hear from 1:30-1:55. 
  After it was all said and done, we asked Tez to mix it for us, as he is a master producer and mixer. 
  This is the latest in a long line of surf rock songs of Artur's we've been fortunate enough to get to play with. He is the surfingest Polish fellow you will ever come across, and a wonderful, familiar collaborator with Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Surf Vibe (Eclectic Collective with Surfers Like Us)

Fernweh, or Wanderlust
A waterfall of longing flows within my heart.
I want to travel far away. Far away, anywhere.
When I wake up from my reverie, the reality is
the echoing sound of a synthesizer.
I can't go anywhere.
Or maybe I'm already traveling deep into the forest.

I Found A Way

Finding Peace

sol om on

80s pop

This is a song about an escalated night of Christmas drinking.
Starring: You and me and a  Mall Santa Claus ( a Harry Dean Stanton type character).
This is probably the most depressing Christmas song ever.
Happy Holidays!

Lyrics:
Yeah (well) anyways...
I guess I'm your guardian angel
I should  wish you good luck
I've been sent by"The Entities" above
To get you out of your Christmas rut

I went down to the bar
I know that you couldn't go far
You've let yourself go soft
I gave my better judgment the day off
I'm full of Christmas cheer
I've got 10 cases of imported beer
I'm moving out tables and chairs
We're gonna have a dance floor here!

I've been writing Christmas songs
I hope you'll all dance along
and sing along
I'm spinning records of Metal and Motown songs
Songs for everyone
Even if you feel like you don't belong

Oh, when I was a child
My mother took me to go see Santa Claus
At a broken down mall
With a broken down Santa Claus
And I said:
"Santa Claus, what can I do to have everything I want in my life?"
And Santa Claus said to me:
"Get your head out of your own asshole Son"

Ahhh yeah
Get out of your Christmas rut!
I've got some dynamite in my trunk
Let's get you out of your Christmas rut!
I've got a present for you
It's a box of old dumb luck

There goes Santa Claus
Walking home from the Mall
I think he's got a bottle of Ripple in him
Go, Santa Claus, go!!!

Ahhhh, come on
Get out of your Christmas rut!
We're drinking with a Mall Santa Claus
That's (Huh?) down on his luck
C'mon, get out of that Christmas rut!
How about loaning your guardian angel
About $150 bucks?

(Holiday Bell Ringer: )
The holidays  
It's about family
And friends
And peace on earth

(Drunk Santa comment:) 
Yeah?!?! (ha)" Peace on Earth"
More like 'piece of the action' if you ask me!

Lucy Clip: "You're in a rut! A big fat rut!
"I think we're gonna need some good Attorneys"
Get out of your Christmas rut!

Christmas Rut!
