@dtrxtdctyxdtdtssedtrr: thank you bailey.

Fantastic and fresh music! I really enjoyed the vibe! Biggest Congrats, man! 😎👌

I really like the guitar's tone. It has a vintage, almost surf rock sound.

WE CAN BE GREATER ...

I always wanted to make a sonic companion to the last song Bitzone, Frawstakwa, and I made together, “What Difference Does It Make.” I finally got my chance. This one came together real fast. Bitzone sent me a raw beat, I asked Frawstakwa to kick it off, and then I made some arrangement adjustments and laid down my lyrics and vocals based on Frawstakwa’s. Bitzone then finished it up and bada-boom, gotta move, gotta shake!

Massive thanks to Frawstakwa for bringing the fresh ideas and original verse and chorus vocals. And big thanks to Bitzone for always make the tracks more vivid than I could imagine. 

May there always be at least a little time to bounce in your week!

Lyrics: 

Hold up
Lemme tell you
What I’m talking about
To the beat
With a breakdown
That can make you bounce 

Here we are
Coming through
With whatever it takes
Full force
On these fools
All up in your face 
Show and prove
Break it down
To the drum 
And the bass
That good old
One two
Gotta move 
Gotta shake
Bada-boom
Something 
That you can feel
But wait
If you could feel 
Anything at all
Feeling great
Letting it flow
Mind body and soul
On my way
That’s how it goes
So the people them know
See you later

Hold up
Lemme tell you
What I’m talking about
To the beat
With a breakdown
That can make you bounce 

I’m just your everyday reverie of an emcee
You see
I’m but a memory of the way 
You say it be
On this beat 
You project the street 
On the hit of the kick 
The click 
Boom, respect it’s the fire of the heat 
It’s the sweat dripping from the meat 
You expect flowing from that bass 
That slow tempo that’s got you feeling 
You on the creep, you on the chase
Brace fo the bounce putting you in the some headspace 
Race everyone to hear every ounce so tie up yo shoelace 
And let’s go 
Yo, lettin’ the people know

Hold up
Lemme tell you
What I’m talking about
To the beat
With a breakdown
That can make you bounce

The flow is
Summoned 
On command
Dig deep
Within 
Without a plan
Improvise
And
Ka-blam 
That is called conviction
Can you understand
The definition
What is your religion?
Damn
It takes blind faith
To hope that one can trust
In what is true 
What is real
For real
So what it do?
We are here to
Be seen
Be heard
Be who
We truly are 
Hold up then
Please
Tell us
Who are you?
 
Hold up
Lemme tell you
What I’m talking about
To the beat
With a breakdown
That can make you bounce 

I got the feeling the bounce is appealing
Now that the ceiling’s been breaked
We got the unwilling to denounce appearing 
How it is that they never been waked 
Allow the revealing of the fake
Watch out we congealing as we get baked 
Take out that sponge cake, make no mistake 
It got that spring, there’s no remake 
Can feel the earth quake 
The beat is shaking
The bass is rumbling
So deep you feel your belly ache 
What’s at stake 
You gotta know
It’s that flow state 
We on a roll 
So slap on the butter baby
We gravy 
Grab a plate and
Before you go

Bounce
Bounce
To the boogie
The bang
The beat
Box
About
To bring it back
The breakdown
For the block
For my people
I see you
Gimme a pound
Tell me how
Have you been
For now
The breakdown
I’m here for you
Hear me loud 
And clear
We are responsible
For where we’re 
Bound
The breakdown
Heading out
Gotta beat the crowds
To get home
Put my feet up
While I eat on the couch
The breakdown

Hold up
Lemme tell you
What I’m talking about
To the beat
With a breakdown
That can make you bounce

Break Down The Bounce

Bitzone, RS Frawstakwa & the Couch King - Break Down The Bounce

Lyrics
Remember when you were a dying soldier
Pretending in the city playground
Maybe it was World War II
Maybe Apocalypse Now

There was never a shortage 
of anti-war films
Plenty enough to go round
War was bad unless your side was winning
Reading in the news
  when we win or lose. 
Jammin out the tunes on a Saturday
Making me crazy gonna dance all day
Delusions of grandeur well it’s hard to say
Would rather have drifted than have to stay

Away from you and your ugly dog 
Maybe it's true our love is god
Maybe a step in the right direction
Maybe on a merry go round

Maybe you dreamt it
Couldn’t be real 
Maybe just a memory found
Maybe just a memory found
Maybe just a memory found

I remember you swam the ocean
But never saw any sharks
Sharks were said to roam the pool halls
And loan you money when in debt
Took the loan and got bit hard
When you couldn’t pay it back
Got pulled under and saw the blood
Screamed about a shark attack

You were too young to remember Jaws
But it really freaked us out
We couldn’t decide was real or not
Like getting punched in the mouth. 

Maybe you dreamt it
Couldn’t be real 
Maybe just a memory found

Maybe you dreamt it
Couldn’t be real 
Maybe just a memory found

Maybe you dreamt it
Couldn’t be real 
Maybe just a memory found

Maybe you dreamt it
Couldn’t be real 
Maybe just a memory found
Maybe just a memory found

QUANTUM CANTICLE

It goes without saying but no music maker or AI.  Thank you all for your encouragement. 

If there’s one thing that you must do
Be yourself and let the light shine through
It’s time stand up tall and proud
Don’t let the bad times bring you down

If it feels like your broken heart won’t mend
When  all seems lost you’ll find your strength within

Take a look at the world around you
it’s your life and it’s finally found you
now it feels like you are not alone
And it feels like you’ve come home
 
See the people walking hand in hand
It’s time for  celebration in this land

We all come from the stars
We all are who you are
We were born to shine
We were born to live our life
We  were born to find our happiness where you might

this love it makes me high
As we float across the sky 
Now we Hold your heads up high
And together we will rise

(cue self indulgent fade out)

You were dreaming

Cast of characters:
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Telecaster electric guitar, mix, production, and composition
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – synthesizer, vocals, and lyrics
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four string bass
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson custom T electric guitar, sometimes with an ebow
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – synth (bridge sections)

This song began as an idea Tez came up with on his guitar while on holiday not far from his home in Wales. It had such a punchy 80's rock sound that inspired Mark to write lyrics and come up with vocal melodies within a few days of hearing it for the first time. The two of them have written several songs like this, making them a solid songwriting source for Eclectic Collective. 
  Once the song had a more solid form, Ken added his dynamic, driving groove drums to it. As soon as Ken had the drums down, Josh took his turn, adding the fretless bass and solidifying the groove. Now that the basic framework was done, Stephen added some trippy electric guitar. Next up was JJ, adding his dancing organ and the really cool, psych synth lead part in the bridge sections. Mark also added some 80's sounding backing synth in the chorus parts. To wrap things up, Tez also dropped in the hot guitar solos towards the end and outro.
  Once we had it all in the can, it was time to turn it over to Tez for his expert production and mix. He came up with the idea of adding reverb to the drums, as well as some other compression tricks, which he employed with subtle style. 
   This, as mentioned, is a great example of what Eclectic Collective can do in house with the composition and songwriting skills of Tez and Mark. The rest of us really had fun working on this one, too, of course. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Original lyrics by mistermark:

There’s something I’m seeking that I’ve never found
but the seed that you planted went deep in the ground 
there’s a journey that I’m on but the path is uncertain 
the magic fades when you pull back the curtain 

Wherever you go I will follow
there’s always another tomorrow 

There will never come a time when I do you harm
cause my soul is steady when I’m in your arms
and never have I heard music like your Voice 
when you call me to you I have no choice

Wherever you go I will follow
there’s always another tomorrow 

Like a puzzle on the table all the pieces fit
like I’m standing in the dark and a match is lit 
and what it all means man I just don’t know
but it’s a Powerful feeling and it’s starting to grow

Wherever you go I will follow
there’s always another tomorrow

Wherever U Go (Eclectic Collective)

Finding joy in music, back like when we were kids, building forts made of cotton.

Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais
(Serge Gainsbourg)
Album "Vu de l’exterieur” (released in 1973)
Cover version

Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Et tes larmes n'y pourront rien changer 
Comm' dit si bien Verlaine au vent mauvais 
Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Tu t'souviens de jours anciens et tu pleures 
Tu suffoques, tu blêmis à présent qu'a sonné l'heure 
Des adieux à jamais 
Ouais je suis au regret 
D'te dire que je m'en vais 
Oui je t'aimais, oui mais 

Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Tes sanglots longs n'y pourront rien changer 
Comm'dit si bien Verlaine au vent mauvais 
Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Tu t'souviens des jours heureux et tu pleures 
Tu sanglotes, tu gémis à présent qu'a sonné l'heure 

Ouais je suis au regret 
D'te dire que je m'en vais
Car tu m'en as trop fait. 

Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Et tes larmes n'y pourront rien changer 
Comm' dit si bien Verlaine au vent mauvais 
Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Tu t'souviens de jours anciens et tu pleures 
Tu suffoques, tu blêmis à présent qu'a sonné l'heure 
Des adieux à jamais 
Ouais je suis au regret 
D'te dire que je m'en vais 
Oui je t'aimais, oui mais 

Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais 
Tes sanglots longs n'y pourront rien changer 
Comm'dit si bien Verlaine au vent mauvais 
Je suis venu te dire ue je m'en vais 
Tu t'souviens des jours heureux et tu pleures 
Tu sanglotes, tu gémis à présent qu'a sonné l'heure 

Ouais je suis au regret 
D'te dire que je m'en vais 
Car tu m'en as trop fait.

Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais
