Northwest Passage

Northwest Passage (Mastered With Frogs And Starry Clear Sky At 83pct + BIG Banjo Ending)

I hope that heaven is a place where everyone can share the same space​
And liberals and conservatives can exist in perfect harmony​
Cause if you live a good life and you seal the deal​
and you end up in heaven how are you going to feel​
If when you get there there’s people who want to argue​
with you about politics
***
Why can’t we just all get along​
Why can’t we live and let be​
Why can’t we just all mind our own business​
And agree to disagree
***
Will you let it go or will you keep on fighting even after your first Saint Peter sighting​
Or will you check the TV to see if there’s CNN or Fox News in Heaven​
They had to pry your gun from your cold dead hand but now that you’re a soul in a spiritual land​
Will you still demand your second amendment rights to protect yourself in heaven​
***
I hope that in in heaven you can eat real steak with a bunch of vegans eating meat that’s fake​
As you pose for a photo with Jesus trying to re-enact that painting of the last supper.​
If you bump into that undocumented guy who you sent back to his country will you look him in the eye.​
will you tell he’s not welcome in the United States part of heaven?
***
All these people with extreme positions shouting to their hearts content​
Like demented performance artists in a circus tent​
They can try to push our buttons be we don’t have to let them​
They can invite us to their party but we don’t have to show up.​
***
Why can’t we just all get along​
Why can’t we live and let be​
Why can’t we just all mind our own business​
And agree to disagree
***
Why can’t we just all get along​
Why can’t we live and let be​
Why can’t we just all mind our own business​
And agree to disagree

Cast of characters:
Stoner Jazz--@user-911083679—Jeff—vocals, lyrics, and original stem

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman–Stephen–overdriven guitar, production, and mix

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara–Ken–drums and percussion

Llanpsych–@llanpsych–Tez–electric clean/effects guitar 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–four string fretless bass and synth           

This song orignated with Jeff, who wrote a poem, which he set to a beat and a key with some very cool vocal processing. He sent it to me, and I added the bass and the synth lines. I had to, of course, got the rest of the Eclectic Collective involved. Ken came up with a solid, distinct beat, based loosely on my first take. I then redid my bass line to match up with Ken's drums, which is the way they seem to work best, sometimes going back and forth like that several times until they're locked in. Then, Tez and Stephen each added very distinct, supportive guitar tracks to fill it in. Tez comes through with the very Strat sounding bells ringing throughout. Stephen really shines with his textural tremolo playing throughout, as well as the rocking end. He also produced and mixed it expertly, as always. 

  This is the first time the Eclectic Collective has collaborated with Jeff, although both Josh and especially Stephen (as part of the band, The Smoking Trout) have made music with him before. We really enjoyed making a song based on his vocals, and Jeff is a welcome addition to our sound anytime. We all really enjoyed making this one. We hope you enjoy listening to it.

Lyrics:


Naked Shoulders
l like the way the sun lights up
the naked shoulders of the Early morning
ln the Desert where we met-
ln the shack down by the muddy
where you said you waited
while l rambled on about the time
Youth and Sex and Beauty-
When the Real Revolution was the Music-

Slitting quietly and thinking
while the melancholy has lt's moment
letting longing linger longer than lt should
Took a little tumble ln the Bumble
when l got older
always just a little lucky
ln the middle of disaster
no longer sure lf l'm the spell or l'm the caster
only knowing that my feet are made of plaster-

Even though lt's getting late, even though lt's getting late
l'm still standing at the gate
hoping for a bit hoping for a little bite hoping for a little slice of Nlrvana Nlrvana-

Verse 2
You know lt's harder than lt looks
even though l read some books
l'm ln love with my Delusion, Naked and inviting
lt whispers sweetly ln my head and says
You're gonna live Forever, even though l'm almost dead-

Everything that came before
comes knocking at the back-stage door
demanding parts ln the production of the play-

What makes you think you have a choice?
The Director Said
you don't have to memorize the dialogue
the script ls ln your Head--

Lyrics

Half moon come out night
Hang out midnight feast 
Black birds baked in pie
Break heart baked in pie
Half moon come out night
Hang out midnight run
Running up to star night
Ride on white flying horse

Go to cosmic picnic
Get to cultic beatnik

Following  your heart beat all day long
Listen to your heart beat all night long
Following  your higher heart any time

半月の夜
真夜中のご馳走はいかが
ブラックバードはパイの中
壊れたハートはパイの中
半月の夜
真夜中に走るのはいかが
星空に走って
空飛ぶ白い馬に乗ろう

宇宙のピクニックに行こう
カルトな変わり者になろう

一日中君のハートの音に従う
夜中君のハートの音を聞こう
どんな時も君の高いハートに従う

Midnight Feast(jigs trippin.prod)

A poem inspired by Eros that allegorises the penultimate stage in the process to birth the Philosopher's Stone, known to alchemists as the Marriage of the Sun and the Moon or the Peacock's Tail.

LYRICS:

I know a dell where the willow mint grows,
Where bluebells chime in the midnight hallows,
And bowers of may and honeyed suckle
Curtain the congress of loving couples
As paired collard doves are cooing in swoon
At this, the Marriage of the Sun and the Moon. 

The Peacock’s tail is a courtesan’s fan 
As he dances a slow Bharatanatyam.
The rose on the throne folds back her calyx
And releases her nectars into the chalice
For the bee, so lustful ...and yet so tender
At her grace, at such sweet surrender. 

Deep in this Garden of Earthly Delights
Sleeps Beauty, sometime of the night,
Her perfumed lap that poets eulogise.
All the Love of the world is in Her eyes.
And there, the Serpent is rising once more
To fire up the ways and open the doors.

The Garden Of Earthly Delights v.1

Baseball hotdogs and apple pie
He waves the flag likes to hold it high
He says he’s the voice of the common man
He feels your pain and he understands

He eats fast food from a silver plate 
He lives in a compound with a fence and a gate
And he wants you to know that he 
cares about the little people

And he’s dreaming of a better day when the people he hates have been locked away
He says vote for me I’m your man.
I can’t tell you what it is but I’ve got a plan
He says you and me.  
We’re goanna take this country back

Sharks in the water and he’s tossing red meat
And we’re jumping in with both feet
He’s goanna make our country great again
He’s goanna be the second coming of George Washington

He likes to talk about the good old days
When people had values and everyone behaved.
He says my way’s the only way listen to me
There’s no place for you if you disagree
He admires dictators cause they get things done
Some people believe he’s the chosen one
And he wants you to know that he 
cares about the little people

And he’s dreaming of a better day when the people he hates have been locked away
He says vote for me I’m your man.
I can’t tell you what it is but I’ve got a plan
He says you and me.  
We’re goanna take this country back

Sharks in the water and he’s tossing red meat
And we’re jumping in with both feet
He’s goanna make our country great again
He’s goanna be the second coming of George Washington

Sharks in the water and he’s tossing red meat
And we’re jumping in with both feet
He’s goanna make our country great again
He’s goanna be the second coming of George Washington

Take This Country Back

Lyrics:
A star shines brightly up on the sky, sending us a message
For this christmas time...

Christmas is coming, Joyfully we wait
the time of year to feel happy, the time of year to feel hope
But also the time for sharing, love from your heart
Pass forward the message, from the star above

Lend a hand to your neighbor, lend a hand to your friend
share with needing people, offer them your hand...

Christmas is coming you fully we wait
The time of year to be happy, the time of year to feel hope
But also the time for sharing, love from your heart
Pass forward the message, from the star above

Lend a hand to your neighbor, lend a hand to your friend
Share with needing people, offer them your hand...

Christmas Is Coming

Hard to argue against the observation that we as a species keep making the same mistakes with each other and recreate the same tragedies over and over. Same senseless rhetoric/same simple destructive "super race" syndrome...
If we can figure out the theory of relativity and the structure of DNA, then why can't we see through the useless destructive rhetoric of the "leaders" we see around us?
let's study the past to construct the future

lyrics:
don't you remember who you are
don't you remember why you came
don't you remember all that's happened 
that got you where you are today

your footprints in the sand are still there
time hasn't washed them away
get your head out of the clouds
let the past guide your way

every mistake you make today
every regret you'll have tomorrow
has already been played
a thousand times along the way

there's nothing new about the hate you feel
there's nothing unique about your fears
it's all been said and done before
we don't need to do it anymore
so let's go forward and build a better day
put the fears and the hate away
all they will ever do for you
is bring back the tears we have seen through the years

so please learn from the past
the's how we build a future for us all
we have to learn to work together
building bridges and not walls

don't you remember who you are
don't you remember why you came
don't you remember all that's happened 
to get you where you are today?????

if we keep doing what we're doing we will get the same result

BIRTH OF AN EMPIRE - Ste van Horne and Mike Cliffe

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create any of my melodies or lyrics. Personally, I enjoy the challenge of coming up with the song using my own human intelligence. 
Recently I have had the urge to pick up my guitars (Taylor 114ce and Fender Squire) and I have been trying to use more guitar in my songs.  
My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
