DAILY DROP  25.03.24

De nos jours, chacun d'entre nous accomplit des choses bien plus spectaculaires et plus complexes que par le passé. Savoir  imaginer, motiver, coordonner, sont pour beaucoup d'entre nous des objectifs.
Mais au présent, il faut reconnaître, que chacun « travaille » pour soi, et que hélas, les États se substituent aux volontés collectives et, l’individualisme est devenu roi. Chacun paie sa redevance dans tous les domaines et considère ainsi, avoir sa part de bonheur, sa part de liberté ....
Nous déléguons de ce fait, toutes les taches de la vie collective, et même trop souvent de la vie domestique, perdant ainsi la capacité d'avoir un semblant d'autonomie, et devenant dépendant de l'argent …. nous empilons les chèques, avec l'espoir d'une certaine tranquillité de vivre. Est-ce vraiment une bonne chose ? 
Je vous laisse méditer sur ces quelques lignes ....

Maintenant pour parler, de ce qui nous intéresse musicalement ici, vous pouvez écouter de cette nouvelle collaboration, avec notre ami David, qui donne avec sa guitare, tout son sens à cette logique harmonique conçue en égard à cette voix si belle et particulière de Clara Sorace.

Merci David d'avoir usé de ton temps pour cette excellente collaboration ….

*********************************************************************************************************

These days, each and every one of us achieves far more spectacular and complex things than in the past. Knowing how to imagine, motivate and coordinate is a goal for many of us.
But in the present, we have to recognize that everyone is "working" for himself, and that, alas, states are replacing collective wills, and individualism has become king. Everyone pays his or her dues in all areas, and thus considers that they have their share of happiness, their semblance of freedom ....
As a result, we delegate all the tasks of collective life, and all too often even domestic life, thus losing the ability to have any semblance of autonomy, and becoming dependent on money .... we pile up cheques, in the hope of a certain peace of living. Is this really a good thing? 
I'll leave you to meditate after reading these few lines ....

Now to talk about what interests us musically here, you can listen to this new collaboration, with our friend David, who gives with his guitar, all its meaning to this harmonic logic conceived in consideration of Clara Sorace's so beautiful and particular voice.

Thank you David for responding positively to my request, and for giving up your time for this excellent collaboration ....

Shadow Or Light .... With David Dunham & Clara Sorace

Cast of Characters:
mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark-- VST sax solo, harmonica solo, organ, tremolo guitar (synth), composition, arrangement, mix
Mysterious Decibel--@themysteriousdecibel --MD—lyrics & vocals
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– second electric guitar solo, and mastering
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –piano and electric piano solo
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, first electric guitar solo, rhythm guitar comping 

This song originated with a slower more Jazz oriented track Mark had previously written ('1 For The Money, 3 For The Blues' https://on.soundcloud.com/BtSS4). However, he wanted a more 'suped up' version with solos turns, so he turned to The Eclectic Collective (EC) to fill in the pieces by replacing some of his solos with their own. Mark had some lyrics in mind too, however, once he heard The Mysterious Decibel's excellent lyrics and vocals, the song totally changed the direction and the vibe, for the stellar. 

   Once we had a basic structure, Ken, as always, came up with the rhythmic foundation for the song, allowing Josh to add his version of Mark's bass line. Then, after MD gave us the vocals, we got down to adding the solos. As more EC members jumped on board with new parts, Mark kept lengthening the song, moving the solos & vocals around until it's final current arrangement. JJ opens the song with his thrilling piano solo, as well as the electric piano solo where he joins Mark on VST Sax right after the first singing verses. Then Josh added a melodic and very clean toned guitar solo with a very clean tone - the first of the two guitar turns. After that, Stephen added his fiery guitar solo with a more overdriven tone. After one more vocal verse from MD, Mark stepped back in to close it out with his nasty harp solo at the end. After Mark handled the mixing on this song, we turned once again to Stephen to take care of the final sound production and mastering, which he fulfilled expertly.  

  We hope you enjoy this jazzier side of the EC as much as we enjoyed making it. MD's lyrics are about a psycho killer artist who hides clues about his murders in his paintings. 
-Original Lyrics by The Mysterious Decibel:

Some might say he's crafty and planned
With a shade of black and a brush in his hand
Some might say the world is his oyster
But no pearl lays inside just a conjuring blur

He'll paint you a murderous scene
With the blending of  sin all between pigments of green
He's a shady fella who hides behind the canvas!
I spy something with my little eye
This art might show just where he died

Will you find it?
The secret
Some freak shit
are you so sure you'll really wanna Keep it ?
The secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?
Ahhh a little secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?
It'll haunt your mind like it does him too
He's a swifty one he'll come for you!
The secret
The secret
The secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?

I spy something with my little eye
This art might show just where he died

His art might show
might show
might show
just where he died

Side Note:
This past Tuesday, we released a fun little series of interviews over a 20 minute medley of some of our favorite musical moments. If you want to hear our voices and some of our thoughts about music, check it out! You might really enjoy it, especially if you follow us, and have been for a while. It's a celebration of all of our work over the past almost year together in various forms. This song was supposed to be a showcase of all of our skills to accompany that medley, except Tez isn't in on this one. He'll be on the next one, though, for sure! 
Thanks for listening!

Mark's Album (post-2020)

'A Brush With Death' Blues (with The Eclectic Collective)

Personnel:
Paul Bray - Drums
Terry Todd - Bass
Andy Peake - Keyboards
Nigel Manning - Tenor Sax

GRITSTONER  - (TPMB rehearsal 2018)

Cast of Characters:
Computart – @computart – guitar, vocals/whistling, composition
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – mix and production 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass and mandolin

This song started as a recording of Computart playing the guitar and singing/whistling to a metronome, which you can find raw on his page. Having worked together before on a song called The Shining, the Frenchman reached across the pond again and asked the Yank if he would like to add anything to this. This style of music being one of Josh's favorites, he jumped at the chance. He got Ken involved right away because every great song needs a great drummer. Josh added a bass line, to which Ken added drums, to which Josh redid his bass line, as is their usual process. Josh then added the mandolin. Then, Ken added the hand drums to put the icing on the cake. Tez was generous enough to produce and mix this for us, and we feel like he got it to sound like we were all playing in the same room together. 
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed putting it together

Plaisir-Computart/Eclectic Collective

Cast of Characters:
The Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel –MD-- vocals and lyrics in the choruses
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– guitar, production, and mix
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –piano, synth sax 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums, acoustic guitar intro, and vocalized tones at the end, verse lyrics and melody, composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, vocals on the verses

This is a song that originated with Ken several months ago. He wrote the whole thing on piano, guitar, and drums and presented it to the rest of the band. Of course, everyone was very excited to add their spin to it. 

Josh added his bass part first, as the foundation. Ken also left his catchy original guitar intro as it was. Then JJ added his dynamic piano part, which ended up being both foundational and stylistic, along with the sax that you hear in there, too. Stephen added his solid foundational guitar to it, too, soon after. Then it sat, stalled out for need of some vocals. Of course, we asked TMD to add some, which he did in grand fashion for the choruses. All that was left were the verses. Ken wrote lyrics, and gave Josh an idea for the melody, so he sang the verses to wrap it up. Of course, we asked Stephen to produce and mix it for us, which he did so well, as always.

  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

雲は流れる

Modern Times

Verse 1

Am I playing the wrong game —-  where losing’s a crime
Time’s just not the same—-and there’s no one here to blame
In these modern times——where machines reigns supreme 
breaking all the chains——-to fulfill my dreams
————And that’s a solid —because—- yeah—— I’m back————-
Metaphors and rhymes——-my weapons on this track
Modulating -from the underground ——one culture one voice
And we’re —-wired in like teeth—-like we—-ever—-had a choice

Chorus

Modern times---- a difficult maze
Where screens captivate —— the Information Age
And—-We're all connected——yet we’re—also——-alone
Lost in a sea of pixels----hearts ———-—cold as stone
Modern times————Modern times ——-Modern times

Verse 2

Smartphones--at our side—-our constant companions
That double-edged sword—-has become ——-part of the norm
buzzing Notifications——like a relentless swarm
Distracting —us ——-from moments —-another task ——to perform 
Just another monster ———taking physical form

**Chorus**

Bridge

Artificial intelligence--- a marvel and a threat
Replacing human minds--- leaving us —-deep in debt
Algorithms —-determine our fate—without regret—-
Like marionettes ———or puppets on a strings
Manipulating our thoughts——damn—we are feeding these things

Verse 3

Social media——-a stage ——for the soul to bare
Beneath the surface——lies ——and deceptions —-are clear
We curate our lives——-like a perfect facade
our true selves———pushed aside ——in total disregard 

**Chorus**

Outro

In this digital age---we must find our way
Embracing the power——with a huge price to pay
There’s a balance for the screens —-in real life
With the key to our future——a new vision insight

Lyrics:

I'm trying to read you, to find out
What I should do
But all traces are so well hidden
So I don't have a clue..
I'm searching high, searching low
It's impossible to find
I don't know what I'm  gonna do
Or what's on your mind...

Give me a sign, we don't have much time
I don't know where to look
So give me a sign..

I'm trying to ask you: Can we talk?
But you have nothing to say
You don't want to open up
Or meet me halfway..
Giving you time, so you can find out
If you have something for me
But you are still just as closed
As you always tend to be..

Give me a sign, we don't have much time
I don't know where to look
So give me a sign..

Give me a sign, we don't have much time
I don't know where to look
So give me a sign..

I'm out of time, enough is enough
Won't waste more time on you
If you are not willing to talk
I know what I have to do..
Before I go i just have one more thing to say
You should really start to talk
Cause I will walk away..

Give me a sign, we're out of time
I don't know where to look
So give me a sign..

Give Me A Sign  W/PJ Project

Art Expressed in Music – Picasso's Brilliance

Painting: Les Demoiselles d’Avignon 
John-Marc Ventimiglia: jagged shards sound effects 
Visit: @john-marc-ventimiglia
Pablo Picasso (October 25, 1881 to April 8, 1973) was a Spanish expatriate painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, and stage designer, one of the greatest and most-influential artists of the 20th century.  The enormous body of Picasso’s work remains, and the legend lives on—a tribute to the vitality of the “disquieting” Spaniard with the “sombre…piercing” eyes who superstitiously believed that work would keep him alive.  Picasso's output, especially in his early career, is often periodized.  The most commonly accepted periods in his work are the Blue Period (1901–1904), the Rose Period (1904–1906), the African-influenced Period (1907–1909), Analytic Cubism (1909–1912), Synthetic Cubism (1912–1919), Neoclassicism to Surrealism (1921-1937) and Post-War Work (1937 – 1970s).  Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, from his African–influenced period, marks a radical break from traditional composition and perspective in painting. It depicts five naked women composed of flat, splintered planes whose faces were inspired by Iberian sculpture and African masks. The compressed space they inhabit appears to project forward in jagged shards.  Picasso unveiled this monumental painting, that precursors Cubism, in his Paris studio after months of revision.  Picasso said the ethnic primitivism evoked in these masks moved him to "liberate an utterly original artistic style”.  The Avignon of the work’s title is a reference to a street in Barcelona famed for its brothels.  Exceptionally prolific throughout the course of his long life, Picasso achieved universal renown and immense fortune for his revolutionary artistic accomplishments, and became one of the best-known figures in 20th-century art.  Picasso died on April 8, 1973, at the age of 91, from heart failure, reportedly while he and his wife Jacqueline were entertaining friends for dinner.  Considered radical in his work, Picasso continues to garner reverence for his technical mastery, visionary creativity; paralleling the entire development of modern art in the 20th century.

As My Friend Dario's last album Senza Estate soundtracks another summer, Hell Yeah return to it for a new package featuring the single 'Marittimo' in original form, as an album mix, and with a remix from Eddie C.

'Marittimo' is named after the monthly summer party Dario hosts at Pazmaya in Focallo. It's a loose and exotic rhythm built on elastic drums and peppered with toms, hits, bird calls and shakers. Subtle chords dance up top and fleshy bass is offset by freeform wooden melodies that bring a perfectly organic and sun-baked sound.

The remix comes from Canadian disco master and Red Motorbike label boss Eddie C, who turns up the heat and builds the tempo. His loopy mix is heavier, with chord stabs and big drum energy serving up a steamy main dish to get the dance floor full up.

This is another delicious taste of My Friend Dario's irresistible full length.

My bio (to copy) written by me in the third person :-)
"Jörg S. born in Cologne, from youth on, is fascinated by all kinds of art, so he taught himself the saxophone very early. Nowadays flutes of all kind are also part of the equipment, as are jaw harps, percussion, bass, guitars and keyboards.
He was and is always involved in many band projects and session events.
In the 80s he was a saxophonist in the Adam Noidlt Intermission Orchestra with gigs in Berlin, Cologne, Düsseldorf and Basel. Very early on he also worked as a writer with live readings in the Cologne area and was a painter with large formats for many years, all in addition to his job as a graphic designer. Now, retired, he is devoted solely to music: home recording with the platform of choice, Soundcloud and global collaborations."
