Really nice strings. So great composition!!

You’ve created a very upbeat classical piece which takes the listener to a very regal and grand place. Good work again

A truly wonderful work. I enjoyed the elegant and uplifting soundscape!

Just me and my ukulele: Another new song demoed with an acoustic ukulele. I don't usually include lyrics in the description but I seem to have sung this without making many of the words really clear, so just this once I have included the lyrics here.

IF I ONLY HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE AGAIN 
(Oct 2023)


Shattered Dreams
Broken promises
Map the highways 
Of my life
A broken heart
Long lost dreams 
The price I pay
For blinkered eyes

In my youth
I saw the world
A gilded path
And all that implies
But with age,
Experience
Shows the truth
Youth ever denies

If I had my life again would I make the same mistakes
If I had a second chance would I be smart
Would I come to realise
Would I see thru all those lies'
If I only had my life to live again

I believed 
What I was told
Had no doubts
Your love would last
But in time
Your love would die
Then my dreams
And hopes were trashed

If I had my life again would I make the same mistakes
If I had a second chance would I be smart
Would I come to realise
Would I see thru all those lies'
If I only had my life to live again


Main chord sequence: Am  Dm  G   C  F  E7

If I Only Had My Life To Live Again

Here's another jam that takes inspiration from the guitar work of Richie Kotzen on Poison's Bodytalk. 
This time I asked my good friend and great keyboardist, the one and only Jamie Rhind to join along with me! What can I say, he tears it up with me on this one!

Jamie Rhind: All Main Keyboards and Synths
Louis Taverna: All Guitars, Bass, Additional Keyboards, Organs, and Drum Programming
Here's Jamie's soundcloud: @jamie-rhind

This track is a collaboration with Untitled Maruarder (New Mexico) @untitledmarauder

A 'bump' was a short instrumental hip hop snippet between commercial breaks on 'adult swim', a vintage tv program in the USA. The bumps brought lofi and instrumental hip hop to a broader audience and are nostalgically remembered by fans of the genre.

Untitled Marauder's creative sampling and lofi beats provide the backdrop for an ethereal mix with lead guitar tone and articulation played with wind instruments in mind.

The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso - New Fetchflix TV Show

soundcloud.com/user-461764443/sets/the-wacky-adventures-of

After escaping from Baroness Desire Organa sadomasochist lair while she was delivering a weird speech, Inspector Looso spent a week trying to understand what seemed to be at first glance a load of pornophonic gibberish words. Thinking that his brain had the power of the Enigma encrypting machine his understanding was that Baroness Desiré Organa provided him the route to the Phantom’s Holy Grail. Since his Citroën 2CV engine was dead, he decided to take his father’s Helicron car build in 1932. However, The Phantom hired the famous private investigator Mr. Peebody to ensure that Looso would not be after him anymore. According to the decryption of the Baroness speech the route should start at Anus in the commune of Fouronnes. Then he had to go to Sainte-Reine in France at the intersection of La Chatte and Le Fion. Then to Montcuq in the commune of Montcuq-en-Quercy-Blanc. Then to Monteton in the department of Lot-et-Garonne to finally arrive at Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Porc close to the Spanish border. However, Mr. Peebody’s goal was to throw Looso out of the road in the twisty roads between Monteton and Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Porc. Looso resists Mr. Peebody’s assaults and went full throttle thinking that his father’s Helicron was a flying car. He indeed went air born for a while after leaving the road in a curve but ended his flight in a pond as ungracefully as Orville Wright crashing the Flyer in 1908. Will Looso survive to this wacky adventure?

Musical Notes: I mostly borrowed the orchestral texture and rhythmic from Prokofiev again but probably others. Let me know who.

The third song from my new instrumental EP called INK. A soundtrack for dark nights and bright lights.

Quill

Cast of Characters:

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell – drums, bass, organ, triangle, and composition

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– mix, mastering, and production

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–PRS semi hollow body electric guitar

This song began with JJ on a late Saturday night, coming up with it on the drums, bass, and organ. He even added some real triange, if you listen for it, you'll be delighted. He had a killer jazz groove on his mind when he composed it, and was able to really bring it to life on all levels. He originally wrote it as a solo piece, but asked Josh if he would like to add a guitar part. Josh jumped at the opportunity to play an original jazz song on his guitar, and in a few days, recorded more than 20 takes of it. He finally landed on the one you hear in here now. 

  They asked Stephen to mix, master, and produce it for them, which he did in his typically professional way.

  This was a fun, exciting collaboration, featuring just JJ and Josh, but the rest of the Eclectic Collective will be back with them next time. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Hello again Listeners,

Here's our re-post of another of my chilled living-room improv sessions with fellow Saturna Islander illio as we sought to 'catch the flow'.
(And even if you think you've heard it before, this is a New version, friends. Please have another Listen.

Several moods and feels opened up as we 'winged it'!

I'm so happy to have him come Jam n Flow with me here (as we capture it all on our one H2n ZOOM microphone).

We hope it'll help you to relax in the midst of all the craziness n tension in this 'ol world these days.

May you enJoy! We certainly did, and it's a pleasure to share it. :))

What can I say... My kids are away so first chance I had to put the best word ever in a song... cunt... So I took it 😆🔆

In Ireland we naturally say... "Ah Ya Cunt" quite a lot so 🤷🏽 ... and we are proud of who we are... and our breaky 🫡

Lyrics

(Yeats does a crocodile roll in his grave...)

I will arise and go now
And go to an chistin
A large mountain of pig food
On a plate yes I shall make
Aww bacon, sausies pudding, eggs
Toaster grain buttered up
Aww breaky bread
Grilled and fried poached wets your toast
With this much salt
Soon we're spooky ghost

Full Irish Breakfast
Mac Cumhaill said eat fish
But it's oh so tasty this swine filled salty dish
Listen, it was a rasher that inspired this
Oh Salmon of knowledge evolve that myth

Ah I'm only messing we know we're fucked
But you only live once you healthy cunts
Like Garron says we curse for science
And pig the fuel for this daily reliance

"I'm English, ours is the same... "
No it's not wheres your white pudding?
And beans? Piss off
That's dinner
Save the farts for the wife
Fan those covers & bring humour to light

Full Irish Breakfast
Mac Cumhaill said eat fish
But it's oh so tasty this swine filled salty dish
Listen, it was a rasher that inspired this
Oh Salmon of knowledge evolve that myth
