Midnight Coffee

-Rewilding yourself is a process of rekindling a connection to nature and unearthing a truer, wilder, more holistic way of life that centers nature and simple living. Hard to do these days with so many options for distraction. 

-Lydia in title as there is an exploration on E Lydian Dominant particularly in the second half runs.

-Ambient & atmospheric textures from the Fender Reflecting Pool Delay and Reverb.
-Guitar - Schecter Rob Scallon 7 String.
-Zoom G3 & 6 Effects Processor.
-DAW - Ableton.

-Initially designed to assist day rest after night shift however with soaring distortion it got quite dramatic.

Rewilding Lydia

A night walk in Paris in a little street. That's when you hear piano music coming from a private jazz club inviting you to contemplate the moonlight.

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

 This song began with a bass part that Jeff came up with and shared with Stephen, who had added some fiery guitar and foundational rhythm guitar to it. However, it languished on his digital shelf for many months as two parts, until he recently remembered that he had it. So, he decided to share it with the rest of the group. We were salivating, all of us, when we heard Jeff's bass line, so we began with Ken laying in the groovy drums and the tight, driving percussion, which propels the entire song. Once we had a beat, we decided to edit the part to include the break you hear about a minute into it. Mark took on that task, and deftly added the bass in that section, too. 
  I was up next, and decided to add a rhythm guitar inspired by Talking Heads. Once I had done that, I started hearing a simple, catchy melody in the main verse part, too, so I came up with some simple lyrics and recorded the vocals for that. At the same time this was happening, Ken also came up with some lyrics and a vocal melody for the breakdown part, which he added. After Ken had added his vocals, I added a harmony part on them. I also added the lap slide melody you hear in that section, as well. 
  JJ was next up to bat, laying in the breathtaking organ throughout. He also backdropped a canvas of synthesizer throughout and put in some electric piano too. Tez came along not long after and added the ripping guitar solo in the jam section. Once everyone had added their parts, it was up to Stephen to produce, mix, and master it. He arranged and added some length to it, then mixed it in his usual expert manner.
  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with Jeff, though Stephen has worked with him in the past, and we were all fans of his music, and thus very excited for the chance to make music with him. Hopefully, this will be the first of many.
  We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. If you comment, please share, too. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:
The trees talk to each other
They send messages through the breeze
There's magic all around us
If we look for it, we can see
 
Original lyrics by K2 and the Three:
Hey, how you feeling about love and lust
Hey how you dealing with all the lies you trust
We're here to be clear
Not a walk in the dark

A simple woweluja
Simple halleluja

Wowlelujah (Eclectic Collective with Jeff Roberts)

'Electromonk Walks A  Long Road' Is a Fusion track and which I am very happy to say is my 500th upload to Soundcloud. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this 'Long Road' and to all the players who have shared their immense talents with me on this journey. A journey which I am also very happy to say that is far from incomplete.
This version is now a remix and features Georg Boehme on Winds. Georg contacted me and asked if I would like him to add some wind parts to the track. Of course I was instantly in agreement and here now is the amazing outcome of Georg's addional work on the piece. You can find Georg's incredible catalogue here:https://soundcloud.com/georg-boehme

The Three Ps

Electromonk Walks A  Long Road

Electromonk Walks A  Long Road (Feat. Georg Boehme)

This composition was conceived under the profound influence of a luminous starry night in an ancient coniferous forest, adjacent to a cascading waterfall. It seeks to articulate my conceptualization of how distant cosmic stardust catalyzes the emergence of life and consciousness, transforming inert matter into living entities.

Your New Life

Brief mix layering Labyrinth rhythm and a steely timbre infused with the chiming tone from the 42F.
