I Fly

Here the sister tracks: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/this-is-them-last-version and https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/is-this-you. I must point out that there is no reference to the famous TV series of the same title. The inspiration again obviously came from the short Julio Cortazar story, 'Axolotl'. (here: https://ambystoma.uky.edu/teachers_materials/axolitbook/AxolotlByJulioCortazar.html ).

poem / copyright jo richter:

Galen fand die Säfte innen, Kneipp
aussen und Schauberger liess sie
wirbeln, Hahnemann schütteln: Blut und
Lymphe, Laune und Gemüt. Aus

der inneren Umwelt, der äusseren
Inwelt strömt und färbt sich das
Geschick in den Wassern: Zu deuten
aus Treibgut und gelösten Erden,


die als Schicksal verwirklicht ein
Leben sind. Das war es, was ihnen
zwischen den Fingern zerrann: Ach,
Heraklit wusste um kein Ende
des einzigen Stroms, der in jedem
Dasein mündet - und aus ihm quillt.

More Than Just Any Day

Cast of characters:

I have to thank Kenneth at K2 and the Three for contacting me about a collaboration. Without him (and his killer drums & bass) and Tex Mex Shaman (Stephen – fantastic sound on that guitar), I may never have known what one of my songs could sound like with proper playing and production. This collaboration was a lot of fun and a truly humbling experience for me. Thanks guys.

Joseph Shenton: composition, lyrics, vocals, acoustic guitar, lead guitar, harmonica, piano

Tex Mex Shaman( Stephen Watkins): Rhythm and texture guitars, production mix and master

K2 and the Three( Kenneth Karasek): Drums, bass guitar, and shakers

This song began with Ken and Joseph liking each other’s music. Ken invited Joseph to collaborate. He provided such a wonderful song, that maybe sounds better without drums, but we totally dig this version, as well! Ken asked Stephen to add something special, and for a fantastic third party mix down and master! This is the first collaboration with a couple of the Eclectic Collective collaborators.. we hope you all enjoy it!!

One Twist a’Whisper
Lyrics and Music by Joseph Shenton

Bang the drum
Call the ghosts out
It’s ten to one
N’ we’re under looming doubt

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

The cradle is tilted
Fires breath is getting hot
Pine needles are falling
Your poised to spill all you got

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

Skin on skin
Check to cheek
You pull apart quiet
To become the object seekers seek

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

Jump the line
Cheat the deck
The 'bound to be foolish'
Won’t hesitate for even a sec

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

One Twist a'Whisper

An introduction to the next track, The Wolves 🫶🏼

Eh I meant to say .. Most powerful song of mine ever ✅

Introduction to The Wolves

Lyrics
Well, your folk rocks
Pristine
Just over the channel
Brightoned two sheen

Salt Fire looped by the hour
Teachers of tuned tone harmonious flower
Guitars for me cornered still
Their voicings will tend to your will
New musical pathways the pill
Everytime, ears getting that fill

Salt Fire go hear their higher
Salt Fire Lo-fi classical attire
Salt Fire Go hear their higher
Acoustic crumbs of grandeur
Harmonies. The biggest aliens have landed...

So come, let's all fly away in a song
We do it cause we are it
This is where we belong
Good tempered bones
Some tension tones
Utopian homes
Fly away in Salt Fire song
Good bye dystopian drones
We're aligned 
Our staves are long

This song is about the artist Salt Fire across the pond in Brighton. Superb music worth a permanent rabbit hole & I think worth more ears...

Ok so track filled. Added Celtic Harp, Classical Guitar and strings via Keyboard 

Theres a nice point here. So I used the phone recording, imported to the daw and it became the base and click track for the song. It's a nice way of locking in your human time but still filling over it and getting a full tune with more instrumentation. For those ideas your not at the studio and plugged up... 

Android I end up with an m4a - convert to wav for free online (usually fixes bitrate issues) - import to daw audio track - turn off tempo and click track - Your jam just became the click track. Playing to this only then allows you to lock into your feel again as opposed to recreating the whole thing to a click track from scratch...



On the human time... I was chatting with my best friend Anto the other day. He's a fabulous photographer. He shoots only film and uses an eye piece view finder still. He says it feels more instinctual to him. I feel similarly recording things on the spot in random places... You're playing to your instincts which can be spiritually way more creative I think then sitting down and doing it by sums. Both have their merits but starting more regularly in the former more natural way may offer more instinctual goodies. The method part of the process can always iron out and perfect the unusual things you find instinctually in hindsight when further along the process and it's all getting stitched.


To give the phone recording sufficient presence I add reverb 80%20%/compressor for acoustic guitar/EQed for Vocal/Light Stereo Spread for LF & HF. Then I double tracked it each panned slightly either side. The difference is actually a pretty cool example of cleaning something up for use. Recording wasn't changed aside from the dynamics

Salt Fire (Session #2)

This is now the extended and collaborative version with Roberto B  (@2roberto2), under the title of  "Transience (Extended Collaborative Version)", combining creatively my recent track, "Transience (Piano)", https://soundcloud.com/alexander-mihailov-96713983/transience-piano, in my work-in-progress album "Again" (2025), with his recent track "Suspense 6", https://soundcloud.com/2roberto2/suspence-6, that appeared on SC on 30 January 2025. My piano track was composed spontaneously in GarageBand iOS in the evening of 28 January 2025. There is also a version for synths, https://soundcloud.com/alexander-mihailov-96713983/transience-synths, as well as a version for strings, https://soundcloud.com/alexander-mihailov-96713983/transience-strings. "Transience (Extended Collaborative Version)" was arranged and mixed in Logic Pro by Alex M on 11 February 2025 and released on SoundCloud in the late evening (in Europe) of 13 March 2025.

The artwork cover for the album and all tracks in it uses a painting by Roberto B titled "Horloge - Le Temps" of 20 November 2024 annotated by Alex M in Mac OS Preview on 21 February 2025 - in coordination and agreement with Roberto B.
