This song began as Carl's tribute poem to our drummer, Ken. Carl came up with the chord progression and started a project, to which he invited the rest of us. This is the third song Eclectic Collective has done that is a tribute by Carl to one of our members.  We couldn't feel more honored than to be the subjects of his wild and boundless creativity.
  Fittingly, Ken was first in line to add his magnificent drums. Once we had drums, Josh had something to work with to add his bass, which he did shortly after the drums were up. Mark paid the project a visit next, helping out with a bit of production editing, and dropping in a mad percussion solo using his VST timbale drums.
 Stephen jumped in soon after, adding the melodic electric guitar riffs that appear throughout. Not to be outdone, JJ added some sonically thickening electric piano, as well as the throwback psychedelic synth that pops up towards the end. Finally, Tez came along and added the electrifying solo that appears about a third of the way in, as well as the one at the end. 
  Once the recording was finished, we turned it over to Stephen to mix in his always professional manner. 
  This song is all about our very talented teammate and brother, Ken, and it is well deserved, too. As mentioned, this is the third song from Carl about one of us. It's hard to describe the feeling of having someone who you respect take the time and energy to think about you in such a positive way as to produce a song about you. Then to have all your buddies join in to amplify it to a solid song is just mind-blowing. We are all very grateful to Carl for not only sharing his music with us, but for his thoughtful consideration of each of us as subjects. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by The Perfect Dark:
Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture

Rhythmic mountain maestro
Each day, graft, working hard
So kids can eat
Bruised back sees very best of yard

Still, beats get born of evenings
Deep love finds joules to jam
May generation X soothe meaning
Let's teach the younger pussies what we can

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture
Sticks in hand
Cymbals a floating
Snare and bass backbone gland
Tom'ed Ringo Star man keep quoting
Keep life steady paced by hand

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

Rhythmic Mountain (Eclectic Collective with The Beautiful Dark)

Hall of The Mystics

New song written and performed by David Cooper.

Lyrics:

High in a mountain sky
Feel yourself fly
Oh spread your wings

Run across the forest floor
Running by a sparkling stream
Just follow your dream

Chorus

Be, will you be the one
Be, will you be the one
Be, ah set us free
Baby let’s run

See, see the eagle fly
Across the sky
Over the mountains high

Fly away
Above the trees
To a place you need to be, need to be

Chorus

Solo

Chorus x 2

Baby, Let's Run

Thrill

A song about the terror faced by the people in Gaza. The world appears to be turning a blind eye to the atrocities taking place. Malnourished, fear, horror , murder taking place everyday. So much for words of condemnation ! Act now before everyone is lost ! 😡

Ashes of the world .mp3

©music and lyrics by Hans-Michael Albers

here comes the album's opener, a melody and playback I wrote and produced 6 years ago with no text idea until yesterday when two guys met to drag the whole world into the abyss with their f....g egos while the whole world watches helplessly and prefers to focus on its own little lives. it's not they, it's we who mess it up then. writing lyrics has never been easier for me than in this case. and I didn't waste much time to direct my virtual singer, the AI seemed to understand the topic instantly...

Street life, busy business
Fast food in the air
Driven spirits never rest
Ant-like, here to there

Pigeons flutter up in fright
someone honks their horn
Baby crying, welcome shouts
An impatient groan

Chips to go, a scent of spice
Old man with a cough
Kids are joking, running wild
Never get enough

No more
We’ve fucked it up
Won’t get it back
No more

Dripping ice cream, lovers flirt
Lady shakes her head
Little girl with curly hair
Upset with her dad

Office buildings line the walk
Modern people swarm
Air-conditioned honeycombs
Just a little worn

Groundhog’s day without a Phil
Living on repeat
To ignore what’s taking place
Right beyond our street

No more
We’ve fucked it up
Won’t get it back
No more

No more
We’ve fucked it up
Won’t get it back
No more

No more
We’ve fucked it up
Won’t get it back
No more

No more

Dance With Me

In poker, you double down when you get two aces.  And that's just what we have here...two aces.  Scott Nelson and Mirko Borach.  Both superb musicians and guys who you put money on.  So fortunate to have both here on SoundCloud - Scott https://soundcloud.com/scott-nelson-364333064 is from outside of Philadelphia, and is a complete master on guitar.  We had to team him up with another master on bass, Essen Germany's Mirko Borach, who is well known here on SC as Stringburner https://soundcloud.com/stringburner.  Full credit to these wonderful players as they bring our original Double Down to life with me.  Follow these guys and head back into their galleries here for so many exceptional pieces.  I've recorded over twenty with Mirko and now five with Scott.  Loved each one and hope you will too.

Thanks to all for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares.

Can't Stop The Beat

How cool of Zurich producer Paul Racle to be making music for everyone else.  You've gotta love the attention Paul throws into Shell Game, from his signature funk bass sound to the crisp funky drumming.  Sounded to me like it only needed a synth line -
Follow Paul's extensive collection of original recordings and collabs: https://soundcloud.com/paul-racle .   This is our ninth tune together - thanks to Paul's outpouring of original music.  We hope you love it:)https://soundcloud.com/jamie-rhind/sets/playing-with-paploviante

Shell Game - with Paul Racle / everything but the synth solo

It's Sunday and no time better for a little grooving...this one's a little soulful blues and the photo's from the greatest blues club of all, Chicago's Kingston Mines.  When you visit Chicago be sure to go at least one night.  Live blues on two rotating stages from 8p - 4a every night of the year.   And if you can play they often let you sit in.  People all over bringing instruments for late night action.  Named our newest dog Koko Taylor, who's photo in in the poster on the wall - the Queen of Chicago Blues.

That Ain't No Jive

A little funk to lift up the spirits.  Joined again by the fantastic and always funky Stephan "Pinner" Lipinski.  And he pushes it again here.   A big thumbs up too as Stephan's been helping at a hospital.  So many in need right now.  https://soundcloud.com/pinner

And for the collection of the 65 recordings we have done together:  https://soundcloud.com/jamie-rhind/sets/smokin-with-stephan-stephan

No, that's not Pinner there but Snoop Dogg, at a recent NYC show.   We can't duplicate that stuff but we can use the shot on the album cover:)

Lay low, stay safe and away from people, and enjoy the groove
