Lyrics:

Forest Giants

On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Hey loner
Come over
To my forest
It's getting warmer
Stay hidden
Forbidden
It's written on the wind

On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Forest Giants

BIG SONIC GUITAR

We all know, at least the electric guitar playing kind, that after Jimi Hendrix it arguably was Eddie Van Halen that revolutionized what came to be the new sound and playing in Rock Guitar. Inventing everything from superstrat to cranked up sound, to fingertapping to new riffing and much much more.

I owe the man a lot, as he was the one that made younger me in the eighties want to pick up a guitar and learn to play. Like so many from my generation. We are all still chasing that tone, trying to figure out that Big Sonic Guitar ...

I made several hints to famous EVH licks and riffs, see if you can spot them in this original tune in the spirit of =VH=.

I hope you can enjoy this tribute and that it will make you think of him and his joyful, loud and exuberant music.

Cast of characters:
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition and foundational rhythm guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar solos choruses, mix, and production
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell –electric piano, synth, and intro composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–Guitar solo in the verses
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass guitar
 
This song began with Artur composing the entire skeleton, and recording it against a mechanical beat. He presented it to me, and I immediately shared it with The Eclectic Collective. Ken first replaced the metronomic beat with a real, rocking drum sound. I promptly added my four string fretless bass to it, to complete the rhythm section. Soon after, JJ added his electric piano magic, including a short solo, to the stew. Once the rhythmic framework was laid down, Stephen got to work on the choruses, coming up with solid, melodic lines for them. Then, it was Tez's turn to light up the verses with his monster guitar. When we had it mostly completed, Artur asked JJ if he'd do an intro to it. JJ came up with the whole psychedelic intro in response. 
  When it was finished, we asked Stephen if he would mix it for us, which he did with his typical mastery and attention to detail. We all really enjoy making music with Artur, and have been fans of and collaborators with him for almost a year now. If you like the sound of this song, you would do well to go check out his page, too, as he has a bunch of gems on there. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Just You And I

I heard AD's original track "Natural Mystic" and I wanted to make it bigger and badder. He was cool enough to collab with me. I Wrote some lyrics, added vocals and guitars and this track was born out of his Original Idea. I hope you all enjoy our creation. We do \m/


We cannot see through this bullshit you spew
We are deceived from the start till we’re through
You can’t relate to the hate because you’re blind
You only find respite with your own kind
Your message is just more rhetoric recycled
Until you turn us all into Audio Disciples
Until your ears are bleeding from the music that we make
You’re raw with your skills while we Audiobake
Rain down your critiques I’m knee-deep in your hate
It’s just more shit that gets put up on our plate
Every road taken and every day is ours
We progress, our insides and diminish our scars
A mindless submissive, you bound down to your king
You’re kind and defenseless  you don’t feel a thing

You wait for Superman
I look to me
You turn to run from it
We never flee
We are the free and the vengeful divide
We will not stop until we can decide

We fall to our knees, for No enemies
We fall to our knees, for No enemies

New Album out now! https://danielvandenberg.bandcamp.com/album/short-tales-for-three-guitars

This site is for my musical avatar or alter ego. Architect/partner/company owner by day, I find myself playing guitar and writing these tracks in afterhours, at nights, evenings, when in need of a dose of guitar sounds. You will find a wide range of guitar oriented music, ranging from Jazz to Blues, Flamenco to Classical, Rock to Fusion. And many collaborations with some great musicians.

I have been playing guitar since I was 11 years old, largely self-taught and have tried different styles and instruments: Renaissance lute, flamenco guitar, classical guitar, steel string guitar and electric guitar with which I have been playing in styles ranging from rock and metal in my early years to classical music, some American Folk music, jazz rock, prog rock, flamenco nuevo and fusion.

It’s been a splendid time here so far, in collaborating with a lot of brilliant musicians on SoundCloud and sharing ideas and the passion for music. 
My collaborations are with musicians that I have a deep respect for and have a mutual appreciation for real instruments, and musical styles that focus on letting the instruments “shine”. 

Here is some technical data:
Currently I am using Amplitube and Auria on an iPad as DAW with Final Touch for mastering. For acoustic recording I use an Apogee microphone.

Guitars are:
Fender AMERICAN ELITE STRATOCASTER® HSS SHAWBUCKER, 2016
Fender Stratocaster Squire (first edition: JV-series)
Ibanez JS100, Joe Satriani model
Evh Frankie Striped MN Relic R/W/B

EVH 5150 Series Standard Stealth Black EB guitar
Fender American Professional II Stratocaster HSS Olympic White RW
Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HSH 2PT CM Mahogany Natural
Paulino Bernabe, Taller de Guitarras, Model-50, 2001, classical concert guitar
Marín, Modelo Estudio /9 Calidad, 1997, Malaga, Spain, flamenco guitar
Joan Cashimira, modelo 145, spruce top w/ cocobolo sides and back, Gata de Gorgos (Alicante), 2015

I hope you will enjoy my music.
