@user-411502040 Artur, is was nice to hear everyone's voice. Social media can otherwise be an impersonal place!!

Great concept to combine the interviews with the music!! Great review of the last year!!!

Very cool guitar riffs not only in the intro, great colab

The snappiest snare on Soundcloud award definitely goes to you guys - I always love your grooves and psychedelic jams! Keep it up!

What a great journey through talented musicians driven by passion - great way to mix interviews... that's a cool mix!

You sound like one of those TV anchors, JJ. Perfect voice for the rockumentary

@sound23-941370948: Thank you very much!! We appreciate your kind feedback!! 😊

I wanted to create a dreamy sounding track using only two chords, this was the result. 

Wandering In A Dream

Embark on a mesmerizing sonic voyage with "Celestial Serenade: A Flight of Dreams," a transcendent composition that effortlessly blends the realms of jazz and classical music. As a nomadic multi-instrumentalist and composer, I've woven a tapestry of sound that captures the essence of dreamy wanderlust and propels you into a soaring, weightless flight through the cosmos.

Guitars take center stage, their melodic tendrils intertwining with the pulsating thump of the beat, creating a rhythmic foundation that's impossible to resist. Intense synths sweep in like solar winds, adding an otherworldly dimension to the sonic landscape, while complex harmonies weave an intricate cosmic web that ignites a sense of bewilderment and wonder.

In the heart of this sonic odyssey, a breathtaking guitar solo emerges, painting vivid arcs of euphoria across the starlit canvas. The guitar's plaintive cries evoke the emotional hunger of a traveler yearning for the unknown, yet simultaneously celebrating the journey itself.

As you journey deeper into the composition, guitar accompaniments play like constellations, guiding you through a realm where the boundaries of jazz and classical music dissolve, and a distinct sci-fi ambiance takes hold. The interplay between the instruments invokes a sense of paranoia, a lurking mystery that adds an exhilarating edge to the ethereal soundscape.

"Celestial Serenade" is not just a song; it's a sonic exploration of the universe within and beyond. It invites you to bask in its dreamy expanses, embrace the thrill of flight, and revel in the complexity of harmonies that mirror the boundless complexity of the cosmos. Let the music carry you on a journey where euphoria meets hunger, and where wonder and paranoia dance in an exquisite, harmonious ballet.

Been a bit since I dove into IPG1's prolific catalogue of rip roarin rap rock rockers.  A friend of mine, MJ-Brewer, wrote and played the bass on this.  Enjoy!

Lyrics:
I don’t need no jealousy —-no secrecy no bigotry
life is still an odyssey—-a parody —-pure irony
what will be my legacy—-humility and harmony
history leaves a path to see—-land currency and slavery
leaders with no decency—-no empathy not trustworthy
life is never duty free —-there really —-is no certainty
Is voters rights reality —-or just another fantasy
poverty’s the enemy ——revise the current policy

Let’s Pool our talents together ——and move forward in a big way
the difference between giant steps and ———-Child’s play
night and day —-the price we pay
it’s gotta be—-what the people want —-not what the politicians says
—-I’m not a biblical man—-a man of principle—-I am
I believe in good and evil —and that energy is divine
Is it a chance or a miracle ——of being who I am ———
who’ll guide and protect you
Too many gods to kneel to ——
So many beliefs to cling to——what’s true?
who do you have to save you
Is the miracle within you —-clever but ————truth——-ful
God work is never done —-we’re never in ———-ne——utral
These are life’s lesson————enter the teacher ———exit the pupil

take my blessings when I can———-my lessons——- from who I am
This divine spark of energy ———is it chaos——or life‘s plan
Is faith—the path ——or journey—-taken by anyone who can
no good or evil theory just the fact that I am is all I need to guide me
————no spoken word or prophecy
The challenge ——just to stay free—- victory over enemies
The past is all history—wars—-brutality—- blasphemy
the suffering —-the agony—-the cruelty—-the tragedy

Chorus

I don’t need no jealousy —-no secrecy no bigotry
life is still an odyssey—-a parody —-pure irony
what will be my legacy—-humility and harmony
history leaves a path to see—-land currency and slavery
leaders with no decency—-no empathy not trustworthy
life is never duty free —-there really is no certainty
Is voters rights reality —-or just another fantasy
poverty’s the enemy ——revise the current policy

Self taught musician whenever I was a bored child. I enjoy playing everything except for reeded/woodwind or the french horn. I do have many solo songs embedded in my collection but anything with parentheses is a collaboration or working with others. The Eclectic Collective, which is often listed after songs, is a tight knit collection of studio musicians spanning the globe. Below is a list of the core members of the Eclectic Collective: We do also have some regulars that come by some weeks and sit in. We release a song almost every Friday.
