I wrote this song about a year ago and was inspired to write the music after my uncle passed away who was a big part of the 1960s underground and psychedelic music scene in london ,the hippies of that time would frequent a place called the ufo club where they would drop acid and watch such acts as the early syd barrett era pink floyd and many other upcoming music stars of that time.
This song is a bit introspective as well as all things must pass like the music it was an end of an era [jim 2023]

lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

It Won't Take Forever

Der Hamburger Hafen erscheint manchmal wie ein mystischer Ort wenn die Morgendämmerung einsetzt und der tagsüber so betriebsame Ort wie ein stiller Riese langsam aus seinem Schlaf erwacht. Wenn Nebelschwaden die Hafenkräne zu verhüllen scheinen und diese Ihre Hälse wie Giraffen in den Himmel recken, dann ist es November in Hamburg

The Port of Hamburg sometimes seems like a mystical place when the dawn begins and the place, so busy during daytime slowly wakes up from its sleep like a quiet giant . When clouds of fog seem to cover the port cranes and they stretch their necks into the sky like giraffes then it is November in Hamburg.

Lyrics:
Modern Times

Verse 1

Am I playing the wrong game —- where losing’s a crime
Time’s just not the same—-and there’s no one here to blame
In these modern times——where machines reigns supreme 
breaking all the chains——-to fulfill my dreams
————And that’s a solid —because—- yeah—— I’m back————-
Metaphors and rhymes——-my weapons on this track
Modulating -from the underground ——one culture one voice
And we’re —-wired in like teeth—-like we—-ever—-had a choice

Chorus

Modern times---- a difficult maze
Where screens captivate —— the Information Age
And—-We're all connected——yet we’re—also——-alone
Lost in a sea of pixels----hearts ———-—cold as stone
Modern times————Modern times ——-Modern times

Verse 2

Smartphones--at our side—-our constant companions
That double-edged sword—-has become ——-part of the norm
buzzing Notifications——like a relentless swarm
Distracting —us ——-from moments —-another task ——to perform 
Just another monster ———taking physical form

**Chorus**

Bridge

Artificial intelligence--- a marvel and a threat
Replacing human minds--- leaving us —-deep in debt
Algorithms —-determine our fate—without regret—-
Like marionettes ———or puppets on a strings
Manipulating our thoughts——damn—we are feeding these things

Verse 3

Social media——-a stage ——for the soul to bare
Beneath the surface——lies ——and deceptions —-are clear
We curate our lives——-like a perfect facade
our true selves———pushed aside ——in total disregard

**Chorus**

Outro

In this digital age---we must find our way
Embracing the power——with a huge price to pay
There’s a balance for the screens —-in real life
With the key to our future——a new vision insight

Modern Times Vocals 150 BPM

The song was a collaboration between Axel Menningen and myself. Axel passed me his backing track with a that really catchy solo.

Lyrics

I just can’t let it go, and somehow, she knows.
Letting her go it’s breaking my soul.
Can’t even hide, those feelings inside.

Oh, I know, that I’ve no hope.
So hey, can’t I just be, the one that she’ll see.
Taking a chance on me.
 
He sees that girl and he wants much more. 

Oh hey. what is the magic of this girl.    (She’s the one I’ll always love)
I don’t have to save the world.           (She steals my heart as I turn around)
 I just want to love the Girl.                             (Oh yeah)
Oh hey. what is the magic of this world.           (She’s the one I’ll always love)
To fall in love, just fall in love like me. 

So hey, let’s hope.

So today I will be the boy that she sees.
 taking a chance to be.

He sees that girl and he wants much more. 

(Oh, she’s the one I’ll always love)
(She steals my heart as I turn around)
(Oh Yeah, she’s the one I’ll always love)

When I close my eyes, then I can see the truth.
When I see that smile, and the light shines through.
And with my open eyes, then I can see just you.
When I see that smile, I’m in love that’s true.

Oh hey, what is the magic of this girl.  
I don’t have to save the world 
I just want to love the Girl.   
Oh hey. what is the magic of this world.                
To fall in love, just fall in love like me.

What Is The magic Of this Girl

What Is The Magic Of This Girl   (  Collaboration -Axel Menningen  )

A song about holding on to not moving on
Some moving pictures (and words) here - https://youtu.be/yqiJaQpJBsM 

Lyrics Part 1
Don’t go holding on to all of your failure
Not if you wanna reach for success
And don’t bite down on regret too soon
Because you might never get to forget
All the times when we were flailing 
And the lives when we were flawed
And all the chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors

Meanwhile losers keep on losing their time 
Yet still always they’ll find it to waste
Stuck holding onto that hopeless hope
Just to give themselves a kick in the face
So for the times when we were flailing 
And the lives when we were flawed
To all the chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors
Back then
We never thought about before
Wishing we could swap for before

We ran to choices that we chose to choose from
In indecision we were always so sure
But you can’t keep on fighting circles
Cos nobody wins a victimless war

We know we gotta make ourselves our own saviours
And go find new ways to believe
Yeah let’s stand up to always being stood up
By all of life’s cruel fate histories 
So bye to times when we were flailing
Au revoir to lives when we were floored
Ciao to Chances that we gave up so willingly
Just so we could run away from those doors
We ran to
Choices that we chose to choose from
In indecision we were always so sure
But you can’t keep on fighting circles
Cos nobody wins a victimless war
The answers not to go on just live out our lives
We must forgive not forget about before
Let’s step up to the plate and feed on love
Not gonna let us die on this floor
Cos if we don’t make love our law
We’ll never learn not to fall
We’re gonna die on this floor
Yeah if we don’t make love our law
We’ll never learn not to crawl
We’re gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on this floor
Gonna die on this floor
We’re gonna die on
We’re gonna die on
Gonna die on
Not gonna die on

Lyrics Part 2
Let love be our law
Let love be our law 
We’ll never forget before
But we must let love be our law
From empty ashes we burn
All life’s lessons we learned
We’ll never heal that hole
Always part of our soul
Let love be our law (never forget) 
Let love be our law
Let love be our law (never forget)
Let love be our law

mistermark-- @user-432503709 --Mark-- horns and shakers
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– guitar, production, and mix
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, vocals, composition, and mix
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– guitar 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four-string fretless bass 
This song was written by Ken and a dearly departed friend and former bandmate named Chris Bennett about the latter's divorce that he was going through at the time when their band was also breaking up. Ken had a good demo of the two of them fleshing it out, which the Eclectic Collective used as a template for the song. Josh was first to add his unique slide bass line to the song. Next up was Tez, who added the fiery solo you hear at the end. Stephen came in not too long after with the rhythm guitar, complete with the intricate fills you hear throughout. Around the same time, Mark added some really innovative, genre-bending horns and shakers to it. Ken then completed the song with his stellar vocals. 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, so Ken turned it over to Stephen for an objective mix, although Ken was still heavily involved in the process, too. This is the first time Ken has sung lead for an EC song, and we were all very impressed with his skills on this one. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

Original lyrics by Chris Bennett:

I once believed in happy ever after
Now I’m convinced by tears instead of laughter
There’s not much good inside that’s left to do the things for my survival

If I relied on you to make it better
I’d die a 1000 times, before we get together
All that is bad inside will rise back to the top
With your arrival

Burn down the doorway
Run down the hall
Scream out my name
But I may never hear you, never hear you
Drive down the highway
Until you’re gone
I may never hear you call

I still believe that someone’s always watching
Each time I turn around, I never hear them talking
All that is bad inside will never fade away with your arrival

Burn down the doorway
Run down the hall
Scream out my name, but I may never hear you
Never hear you
Drive down the highway
Until you’re gone
I may never hear you call

Na Na Na  Na Na Na
Na na na

Artificial Forest - Τεχνητό Δάσος

Another relic from the lockdown vault...

I wrote and recorded this at the end of 2020 (hence no mention of the events of Jan 6th 2021) but never released it at the time for various reasons. 

Given recent events I thought why not clean it up and put it out. 

Just a bit of haaahmless fun as Arnie might say :)

This Guy

Echo chamber, You're living in an Echo chamber
Echo chamber, You're living in an Echo chamber

You used to get in your car and you’d listen to nineties grunge
But now you turn on talk radio and you absorb it like a sponge
There’s a guy on cable news who says the things 
you were afraid to say out loud
But now you shout them out in polite company
and it makes you feel so proud.

Living in an echo chamber surrounded by people who agree with you
And you’re not interested in hearing any other point view
You used to believe that issues were grey
 but now you see things in black and white
You used to live and let be but now you just want to fight

You say cut taxes for the rich and it’ll trickle down to you and me
And when they sing the national anthem, you’d better not take the knee
You think electric cars are foolish and gas stoves are your God given right
And when you turn on your lamp to read Atlas Shrugged it better be an incandescent light 

Every single second of every single day
you’re walking around muttering that things are not okay
The pundits on the cable news
 say we’ve reached the point of no return
We’re in a downward spiral 
and we’re goanna crash and burn

Living in an echo chamber surrounded by people who agree with you
And you’re not interested in hearing any other point view
You used to believe that issues were grey 
but now you see things in black and white
You used to live and let be but now you just want to fight

Echo chamber, You're living in an Echo chamber
Echo chamber, You're living in an Echo chamber

Echo Chamber

Whoop Whoop!
