The Eclectic Collective — composition and mix

  This is the second song in a row that The Eclectic Collective is releasing in as many weeks that was written by Chris. We love working on his songs, and all jumped at the chance to play with this one, as well. He wrote it on an acoustic guitar, onto which he also put some heavy reverb, giving it an ethereal, chordal sound. To that bare bones, Josh fist added his four-string fretless bass to a click track, of all things. Luckily, Ken swooped in soon after and gave it a proper beat with his lively percussion performance. 
  Once the rhythm section was complete, Tez added his melodic, golden-tone guitar in there. Then, it was JJ's turn. He added not only the piano and synth, but wrote the lyrics and sang it, as well. 
  This song was actually mixed by the group, as we all added our parts, although Ken did some final adjustments, too.
  JJ's lyrics tell the story of the first people to reach Easter Island, millennia ago. The wonder of the journey and the discovery of a new home, while using the materials available to survive. Here are his original lyrics.

Original Lyrics by J.J. Terrell:
 
Through the eyes of the gentle rain
Monuments raised where the Lapwings stay
All the sand, the hourglass of man sifts here
A traveling band of gypsies in this land appear
Crowd the fire as the night sets in
Listen for tales of enlightenment
Until dawn
The flowered down of a bird so true
Pure as heaven, the chosen few
It's all waiting for the night

Originally a song that Sheldon and I recorded 4-5 years ago, we took it and redid a couple tracks, remixed, and somehow it became more country.

02 This Must Be Everything

A small tribute to Wolfgang Palm! I didn't really put much effort into the composition and to be honest I composed it in a hurry! I didn't touch the oscillators at all and there was no change in frequency. The sound was made with the random function of this excellent virtual synth! Next time I'm going to try harder with my limited musical knowledge!

OMGG Band has always cherished the timeless beauty of 1950s music, jazz, Motown, and doo-wop. Growing up in families where music—especially classical and jazz—was integral, these genres have profoundly influenced their musical journey. With deep respect for composer Bart Howard and the iconic performances by Frank Sinatra, they present their rendition of the classic "Fly Me to the Moon." The song was carefully arranged, recorded, and mixed to capture the authentic sound of its era, as if you were hearing it played from a vintage vinyl record. The warm, rich tones, subtle analog imperfections, and classic big band jazz mix create an atmosphere that transports you back to the golden age of jazz, making it feel like a timeless recording from the 1950s.This version reflects OMGG Band's unique style while honoring the song's rich legacy. Special thanks to The Big Time Jazz Band in Helsinki for their magnificent backing, and to Gigi, OMGG's vocalist trained in jazz and opera, who delivers a heartfelt performance. The song was constructed and mixed to sound to the era, like you would receive it played out of an  We hope you enjoy this tribute!

Fly Me to the Moon (OMGG Band Jazz Arrangement)

DEMO written, performed, & produced in Logic by Kate E. Stanton 2/23/25 for FAWM
I recently attended a composer's workshop with the instruction of creating a song based off of specific pitches tied to letters in a name. I chose M-O-L-L-Y (Gb, G#, D#, D#, C#) for my inspiration and created this for my daughter. 

Gold
You came in the dark, where light was so far,
Lost in my loneliness, you are a star.
A dream I’d hoped to see, & hold so tight,
Innocence bold, like purest light.

Heart of gold
My shining stone 
A ray of hope in all I've ever known,
In your eyes, 
I want to be
The very best 
version of me.

No money buys what I have found,
This treasure of gold, she's always around
floating freely in my mind 
freely in my heart like
an inner child 

That’s why I love you.
I love you,
heart of gold.
I want to be the best version of me.
