Join The Good Fight

A simple tribute to the four seasons of the year, reminding us of their wonderful aspects, such as the sound of fallen leaves or birdsongs, but also storms and terrible forest fires.

Farewell

On a personal note, working with this group of fine fellows is joy and a continuing learning experience for me. The original basic piano melody here has gone through several 're-births', appearing in a number of my other songs. But this version with the EC gang is definitely the most... recent   ;)
Kidding. 
It's actually like a totally different piece of music, where these guys flexed their masterful musical muscles to take it to a place I would never have imagined on my own! Fantastic job guys, really. 

These are a couple other versions based on the main piano theme:

Cast of Characters:
mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark—electric piano, composition
Mysterious Decibel--@themysteriousdecibel --MD—lyrics and primary vocals
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –organ, synth
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and percussion, arrangement, production, mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass guitar, lap steel 
This was brought to us by Mark, who had written it a while back, but wanted to dust it off and give the Eclectic Collective a shot at it. He recorded it with a keen eye toward collaboration with an electric piano synth with heavy stereo tremolo. We just recently found Mark, and he has proven to be a very creative, passionate, and easy to work with collaborator—all the good things. 
  Mark set it loose to Josh first, who of course got Ken in on the act before anything else could transpire. After Ken added his wildly creative, very skillful drum beat, Josh was able to come up with a suitable bass line. He also came up with the lap slide part you hear with the heavy tremolo. Then they turned it over to Stephen, who added a very psychedelic, electrifying solo at the end. Also, JJ set upon it with a very hooky organ. 
  Last, but certainly not least, MD came up with the lyrics, which are a metaphor for trying to break into the business of music, and delivered his fiery vocals, too. Then, we all realized that the song wasn't long enough for our ambitions, so Ken came up with an idea for the arrangement, and lengthened the song to suit our needs. He also very ably mixed and produced this one for us. We had a lot of fun working on Mark's tune. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it. 

Lyrics (by The Mysterious Decibel):
 
Sometimes when we shout they can't hear us under the flow
Of the rapids

I'm screaming from the other side of the river
A shot to try
can you hear me?
I'm jumping in and swimming straight to you

All I can say is I tried
I tried and I met my own waterfall
A short way down
Did I try hard enough?
Cuz I hit the rocks below just hard enough
To hibernate me without a care
It's all just business and never fair

- BODY TALK -

-Verse 1-
Drive your car throughout all the town
You dye hair in a burning brown
Here is one reason why you're known (oh,oh,oh)
    Quick look at your fantastic ass
    You know your realy sassy class
    You go out for some rock or jazz (oh,oh,oh)

-Bridge-
	Always so at your ease
	You'll bring me to my knees
	You ... tease
	Just . one . look . will . drive . me . wild

-Chorus-
	You lick your lips
	You shake your hips
   	    Body talk...
	You rock your tits
	You dance on hits
   	    Body talk...

-Verse2-
Your flawless body feels the groove
Show that so horny way to move
Beat the beat tonight, you approve (oh,oh,oh)
    Skinny jeans you will ever choose
    High-class way you can grab your booze
    Your hair loose, you realy seduce (oh,oh,oh)

OUT OF THE BOX / EILEEN OLSEN - Madness MIX

"Les Trois Gouttes" est le nom d'un étang en Corrèze où, à la trentaine, j'allais pécher avec ma femme et mes enfants. Nous péchions le goujon, les enfants l'écrevisse, et comme l'étang est entouré de bois, il n'était pas rare que sur le chemin du retour, nous  trouvions également quelques cèpes et girolles! Le bonheur quoi, "le bonheur simple et tranquille" comme disait Verlaine...

Aux Trois Gouttes

Boogie Down Gangsta

It all actually started when I was a kid y'know. I was living in that small town and all. Everyone was planting carrots there and had fun with it. I didn’t want to plant no carrot so I started making music.
So here I am in my 20’s with my 20 listeners...
I'm doing just fine.

Have you listened to Idyll? That EP is chill AF. I like it 'cause I haven't spent a penny on it, but then there's Tender Funk man...
I paid for the trumpets and the choir and thank god my boys from "the band" ain't getting shit out of it 'cause I would be even more broke than I am.
So if you're asking me if this whole music thing is worth it, I'ma tell you boy it's not an "Idyll" ha ha. (Damn I'm funny)

Anyway, if you're still reading this go on and listen to Stupid Fucking Playground I'm getting kinda emotional on that one, so you can read the lyrics and then text me on IG to check out if I'm good...
I got other songs too, like Benefit Friend or Second Choice - DEMO folks like them because people like to listen about other people having sex... you pervs.

FOLLOW ME FOR MORE INTERESTING CONTENT
I have my own page on Facebook and I don't post there much... but then there's my IG on which I post music that I'm currently listening to... SO MUCH FUN!
I have my YT channel where you can watch two music videos. I paid a lot of money for the "Christmas Song" one so I would be more than glad if you'd be so kind to watch it at least once. It's in 4K and all cool stuff.
