Description: 'In An Altruistic Manner' An Alternative Acid Jazz track.

The true spirit of jazz encompassed right here. Flow. Variety. Intrigue. Half out of time but always in control. excellent work

the mother of all grooves, exciting bass work too !

OMG! Interstellar genius composition!  So far out groovy, I'll never want to come back to earth!  That Voice effect is a splendid sonic calibrated addition!  You have made this genre a simmering success! Love your work, Alan!  I bet Gilles Peterson would be impressed! ;)  😍🔝🥇😎😎😎🔁Fabulously fleek>>

slick bit of electronica-like music. really love the incredible percussion stuff here, and that really cool synth/flute lead sound adds a mysterious and playful element. Woah! That synth bass just licked in right before the horns!! What am I listening to?!?!?! So sooo good.

dude, this is incredible. Maybe my fave of yours? I've been too long away from SC to remember... more exploring of your recent stuff needed!!!

In An Altruistic Manner

Mark says - 
In the 5 years I have been working with Rod, I have been encouraged to reach as far as my experience allows me to, with complete support at all times. So far we have completed 11 songs and have experimented with several others that made for a great learning curve for me, with several more at other stages of development... Watch this space, however as we are methodical and patient, therefore it may take some time to get them off the ground.

The subject matter of this song may be based on a different scenario but it is also a token of my gratitude to my inspirational collaborator and friend Rod, who has given me much confidence to rise to the ambition of his musical creativity and meticulous arrangements. Thank you all for giving this song your time.

Rod says - 
This song was conceived a long time ago to be sung in Spanish, but Mark did a magnificent adaptation with his English lyrics, and the meaning is 100% faithful to the original spirit, even though he hadn't heard the original song in Spanish. Technically, there are three voices together, consolidating a multi-vocal performance. The synth sounds emulate my old analog and FM synths, and the guitars were routed through an old console to achieve the vintage sound I was looking for.

Thank You (Rodolfo Planes/Mark J Bennett)

I would like to tell you just how grateful I am,
And also how important you’ve been here in my life.
I know I don’t need to draw you a diagram,
Thank you for being there all this time as my wife.
I have to tell you just how good you’ve been for me,
And I hope that I have also been there for you,
When you needed me through all this trouble and strife.
 
No need to show me all of your gratitude,
I already know how much you show that you care,
When you were prepared to move to my latitude,
Then I was convinced I was ready to share,
My life with you whatever it threw at the both of us.
I know that it’s true, no matter what you care to say.
I’ll always need to express all of my thanks to you 
This will always be true on that I swear.
 
I would like to tell you just how grateful I am,
And also how important you’ve been in, in my life.
I have to tell you just how good you’ve been for me,
And I hope that I have also been there for you,
When you needed me through all this trouble and strife.
Then I was sure that I was ready to share,
My whole life with you, whatever that meant for the both of us.
I know that it’s true, whatever you say.

Here's Carl's write up.
"Mr Bringer-er Together-er is Josh. You may also know him as artist Entheogenic Psychnought, or the spine of Eclectic Collective. We all came across Josh in our own lucky ways, but he really sets a high bar for spreading constructive musical love and encouragement on SoundCloud. This song started out as a comment. I (Carl/TBD) went to call Josh Mr Bringer-er Together-er and my phone auto corrected it. the next morning K2 swooped in and said what I wanted so I used that as a trigger for the song.
So, I had a rough arrangement. We then invited a few artists, except Josh, to paint it for him. Scratch Kelly, aka Sarah, beamed through some amazing vocals. Not long behind Joe Stroffolino painted in some brilliant backing vox. Then Scotty (One Man Verity Show) chimed in with some amazing guitar, trippy backing vocals, and the super artwork you get to enjoy. Mark brushed in a triangle and some vox, and then Ken added those trusty drums. Tez then strutted in and added some super lead guitar, and not far behind him was Stephen with some epic rhythm guitar that showed the way for the song from that point of view showing a much better space to all the other instruments than the original demo guitar. That was a lovely lesson on less is more...

The song was now ready to give to the main man for him to paint, and he chose his trusty bass to put some strawberries on his own musical cake.

I now stared at 37 tracks and went... Hmmm Stephen, Help! Stephen mixed and mastered it to its crisp current form, and it was a very difficult mix. He basically had to merge 3 projects to one and really aced the challenging mix and master like the true shaman he is. We hope you enjoy the song that brought us together again. May it give us more togetherness like Josh so wonderfully demonstrates everyday

You da brother man Josh 🤘🏽"

Lyrics

Magnet of human
Moulded by melody mind

🎶 COME CENERE TRA DOSSI E PARADOSSI ESISTENZIALI Collettivo Undersound

🌱 Back to the roots. Collettivo Undersound does not make music to sell, but to channel ✨. Every track is a ritual 🔮, every frequency a neutral vibration 🌌 seeking resonance with the universe.

🎸 We record with home‑made instruments: old guitars from Texas 🤠, banjo 🎵, fiddle 🎻 — objects carrying memory. 🤖 AI is not our creator but our sculptor: it shapes the sound, carves it, makes it unique.

🔥 Reggae hypnotizes us. It is the rhythm that allows us to summon 🪄, to bind spells and feelings 💫, to call the right energy ⚡. The one that vibrates. The one that responds.

📦 This album has been in the drawers for years. Now it is time to open them 🗝️. 🌍 MMF and Mirko speak seven languages 🗣️, and for us it is natural to create in Italian 🇮🇹, Creole 🌴, German 🇩🇪, and English 🇬🇧. Because language is not just speech — it is sound 🎤, form 🌀, vibration 🌊.

💚 Creole fascinates us: that “mumble bumble” accent scattered across the waves 🌊, making everything more real, more profound. It is vital. It is transmission.

🚫 We are not here to sell. 🌌 We are here to channel.

🎶 COME CENERE TRA DOSSI E PARADOSSI ESISTENZIALI Collettivo Undersound

🌱 Ritorno alle radici. Collettivo Undersound non fa musica per vendere, ma per canalizzare ✨. Ogni traccia è un rito 🔮, ogni frequenza una vibrazione neutra 🌌 che cerca risonanza con l’universo.

🎸 Registriamo con strumenti fatti in casa: vecchie chitarre dal Texas 🤠, banjo 🎵, violino 🎻 — oggetti che portano memoria. 🤖 L’AI non è il nostro creatore ma il nostro scultore: modella il suono, lo plasma, lo rende unico.

🔥 Il reggae ci ipnotizza. È il ritmo che ci permette di evocare 🪄, di legare incantesimi e sentimenti 💫, di chiamare l’energia giusta ⚡. Quella che vibra. Quella che risponde.

📦 Questo album è rimasto nei cassetti per anni. Ora è tempo di aprirli 🗝️. 🌍 MMF e Mirko parlano sette lingue 🗣️, e per noi è naturale creare in italiano 🇮🇹, creolo 🌴, tedesco 🇩🇪 e inglese 🇬🇧. Perché il linguaggio non è solo parola — è suono 🎤, forma 🌀, vibrazione 🌊.

💚 Il creolo ci affascina: quel “mumble bumble” sparso sulle onde 🌊, che rende tutto più reale, più profondo. È vitale. È trasmissione.

🚫 Non siamo qui per vendere. 🌌 Siamo qui per canalizzare.

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.
