Nice track, to the point! To become  the next Dance Hall classic or Italo disco? Just kidding, well done!

I remember reading somewhere that telling the truth requires no memorizing.  Excellent song Dave.  Great lyrics and fine work as a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist.

Sweet Guitar

'perhaps, the best...'

Baby, unfortunately you have gave me
no choice but to leave you,
'cause you're crazy.
Indeed, at once it was 'maybe.'
But, now it is definitely 'no.'
Although I am sad to see you go.
And wish you all the best.
I still love you.
And always will for what you've been to me.
Eternally. 

I pushed you through your spare room window
and never left.
You made me poutine, burned your arm and had sex. Perhaps the best...

perhaps, the best

LYRICS by J.J.  

We have lost ourselves
Breathe, ever deeply
Believe you've got this now
Heaven bound, yes thankfully

All my life
Happiness has existed somewhere else
Finding out that it was always near me
In the heart's watch - the time, it tells

Ooooohh
One leg in yesterday
One leg in tomorrow

I have found myself
Thinking that life could be so much more
And only if the stars were aligned
Just so

Chasing a carrot on a stick
Catching it - there isn't any hope
Why can't I just look inside of me
Happiness is not a place, it's a choice!

ooooooohs
One leg in yesterday
One leg in tomorrow
Pissing all over today!!

Words and Music Dave Rose
Vocals, Piano, Bass, Drums and Clavinet

A song for compulsive liars who happily spiral downward in a web of deceit. It usually catches up eventually.
Lyrics
You’ll need a glimpse of brilliance to lie your way out of this 
Cos by your own high standards 
You’ve created quite a mess 

So why don’t you try the truth 
You might even find it suits you 
Or is that whole idea just lost on you 

So a glimpse of brilliance is what your gonna need
To convince yourself and everyone else 
Of this web of deceit

So why don’t you try the truth 
You might even find it suits you 
Or is that whole idea just lost on you 

What goes round you it comes around 
And what goes up must come down…..

Glimpse Of Brilliance

un aprem qui se traine
mauvaise graine qui gangrène
comme la douille qui rouille
le fusible qui gargouille
se lever et partir
 
pour une autre planète
chausser l'exosquette
coloré d'opaline
je démarre la machine
pour reprendre la route 

ça pulse dans l'aorte
et ça pulse dans l'aorte
et ça frappe à la porte
et ça pulse dans l'aorte
et ça frappe à la porte
et ça tape de la sorte

boum boum boum 

si tu prends ta détresse
pour de la grandeur d'ame
si tu prends ta maitresse
pour une grande dame
c'est qu'il reste quelque part

battant sous tes cables
quelque chose de chaud
au delà de tes fables
Don Quichotte de nouveau
il faut reprendre la route 

ça pulse dans l'aorte
et ça pulse dans l'aorte
et ça frappe à la porte
et ça pulse dans l'aorte
et ça frappe à la porte
et ça tape de la sorte

boum boum boum

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four-string fretless bass

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song started in probably the most effective way our group writes them. Ken had a spectacular drum beat that was unused in a previous project, so JJ composed and recorded with his magical keys a chord structure and arrangement. Once we had a beat and a chord structure, Josh came along and added his foundational bass. 

  Now that the rhythm section was complete and the chord structure was in place, Stephen added his unique melody line that you hear at the beginning and every other verse on his magic banjo. He also plays all the initial guitar until about the 1:40 mark, when Tez takes over. In addition, Stephen also laid down some really trippy sitar in the break section. Then it was time for Tez to add some spice to the mix with his fiery guitar solos, which you hear from about 1:40 on, eventually building up to a crescendo towards the end. 

  Once we had all the music down, we realized that we had a big gap in the bridge without much going on in it. So, Mark came through and recorded a cool poem he had written on his refigerator with word magnets more than a decade ago, captured with a picture, and added to for the this song. The poem is loosely based on the idea that our dreams exist in a digital environment/universe. The girl's voice you hear echoing him is his daughter, for whom he originally composed it, in her first appearance with the EC. 

  The song was now finished, except for Mark using his masterful production skills to trim and move a few things. After he made those adjustments on, he threw a mix on it. While we usually defer to Tez or Stephen for the mix, Mark did such a great job, we decided to keep his mix. Stephen did, however master and EQ it to make it a finished product. 

  This is a song written truly as a whole band effort, showcasing what the Eclectic Collective can do. I hope you enjoy listening to is as much as we enjoyed creating it.  

Original lyrics by Mistermark:  

The moon flickers on
and rises and dances
across a celestial stage
as dreamers paint the pixels of their mind 
like an infinite canvas 

Sleep away tiny egg
and leave a delicate thread 
of memory behind 
but never log out 
you are in the elaborate web
always

World Of Sugar (II)

Heavy Punk Rock 'n' Roll band turns into Synthwave nowadays! Brand NEW album "Ultraviolet Cosmos" available NOW!

Hello,
Here are some songs wot I wrote. Mostly recorded at home as a sort of one man band set up.
Sometimes other musicians play on the tunes too.

A little stroll on the mild side 🎧

"Dave was awarded 4th best tambourinist in his cul de sac whilst still only 37, he still plays tambourine today whilst his peers have abandoned tambourine. Think that speaks volumes to Dave's commitment to his music". (Big Hits Magazine}



I have a tendency to remove songs to tweak them and reload. Sometimes they never return 🤔

Headphones recommended.
