Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-electric madolin

This song originated with Mark creating a bass line to a metronome, and sharing it with Ken. Ken immediately added his driving drums, and invited the rest of the EC to join in. JJ was first up, laying in his foundational organ, and e. piano magic in the first half, and the cosmic synth melody in the second part. Batting second was me, who established the melody in the first half with my electric mandolin, and mirrored the melody in the second half with the same. Next came Tez, who laid in the funky guitar right after the first break, all the way to the end. Batting clean up was Chris, who laid in the psych guitar in the first section, as well as the high guitar part in the second movement. Of course, we needed an expert producer to mix this for us, so we turned to Stephen, who always gets it exactly to everyone's specifications. That in and of itself is quite a skill, and I don't know how he does it, but everyone is always satisfied with his work.
  This is the second song we've done with Mark, who is a tremendously talented bass player, and delightfully creative songwriter. If you aren't familiar with his work, do yourself a favor and hop on over to his page for some delicious bass music. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

“This is a song about being madly in love and soul mates. It is inspired by Foo Fighters, Weezer, Eve 6, Jimmy Eat World and Green Day.” 

TELL ME YOU ARE THERE FOR ME 

Tell me you are there when I need you 
Tell me you’ll be right there
When I call
When I shout out loud 
Tell me you are there when I need you 
I know you’re there for me and I feel the same 
Tell me you are there for me

I need you in this moment 
I called you all night
I like it when you talk to me
Can you tell that I like you too? Is it obvious? 
Am I living proof? 
I’m scratching right at your door, yeah 

I know you feel the same
We are made this way
To others it makes no sense
For me it’s evident
That soul mates are alive, are alive 
And all heartbreak is waiting in line 

That soul mates are alive

Joyeux Anniversaire. Erik Satie was born on this date May 17 in 1866.

In 1887 when he was 21, and before before his famous Gymnopodies and Gnossiennes had been completed, Erik Satie composed this third Sarabande as one of three he wrote for piano. At the time he was an impoverished conservatory dropout making his living as a piano player in bohemian taverns and cabarets like Le Chat Noir. The Sarabandes were not published until 1911 with the support of Ravel who also introduced and performed the second Sarabande in concert in 1911. Here i've arranged the thrid Sarabande for 2 guitars doubled. Hope you enjoy the mystery and captivating harmony that attracted me to it.

Erik Satie Third Sarabande

The line "smoking cigarettes with god" came from a Adam Madgecki-Janicki
poem that we collaborated on long ago__

Johnny Stole the matches

mother mother may I have another moment in the brilliant light
sister bother seeking renovation
in an nation with an ugly reputation-
but never meeting in the middle
and craters morphing into something more connected,
lovers haters closely followed by the wind
that wanders all about
while we shout
We didn't know the difference
and we didn't till much later
when the blooms had all fallen from the Bush--

And I was standing at the crossroads
smoking cigarettes with god
while she was telling jokes about the devil-
momma said don't play with fire
Johnny Stole the matches just to spite her
that little shit
he set the house on fire-

always hope to give a final gesture of concern
That's not to much to ask-
all things being equal as they are, how far we must have traveled when we wagered on a winner and free dinner and other things
that sings about a history told by a boneless prophet
in a moment of reprisal on the holy desert
about a girly whirly swirly apparition-

Will you tell me if you know the truth about the candle in the window
and why it's Lit? 
and the where abouts of the lighter
was he fighter in the Revolution
When the guillotine was king=

it didn't matter to the mother
she was not appeased
and the dreadful weather it continued 
with no abbatement
they should of left it but they didn't being human as they are
but it didn't change the nature of the crisis-

The silent witness, unafraid, standing on the corner in the Rain
 finally had a reason to recite the dictum of the ages-
burning pages after pages
as she read them in a rage---

Johnny Stole the Matches

Inspired.
