Michael Stipe invites Ringo and The Edge over for tea… they form a band, and call it “ Chicken Little”…

Could It Be…

If it works, it must b good … if it’s “ good “, it must b true?  About cults that exchange the Truth for a pleasurable lie…

Lyrics::
Don’t even, you don’t,you don’t even know
Which way the wind goes, and where it will blow
See the sunrise, watch the sunset
The way you’re going , have we gotten there yet?

Have the ear, and the heart of the King
But all you want is the gold and the bling 
Gave you armor, a double edged sword
Why don’t you use it? 

They scheme and scam, the Lion and Lamb
Take your money, they don’t give a damn
Here to promise, fortune, and fame 
And all you get is pain 

All your pain 
Good and true ￼

It’s good and true
Yeah, owe
Good? It must be true
Good…and true?

Good and true

Good And True

I bought a 12-string for the first time in my life - had a little play around. I just love that ringing jangly sound. 
And repetitive mantric devotionals are great to listen to as well!

My Grace Is Enough (Brian Peters)

My grace is enough for you
My grace is enough for you
For all that you do
And all you go though
My grace is enough for you

Look A Little Higher (Brian Peters)

Look a little higher than your dreams
Look a little higher than your times
Look a little higher than your schemes
Look a little higher than your mind
Look a little higher than your will
Keep on looking unto the hills

Look a little higher than your power
Look a little higher than your plans
Look a little higher than your strength
Look a little higher than your hands
Look a little higher than your skill
Keep on looking unto the hills

Look a little higher than your silver
Look a little higher than your gold
Look a little higher than your barns
Look a little higher than your folds
Look a little higher than your fields
Keep on looking unto the hills

My Grace Is Enough • Look A Little Higher

u n me (ft.Lych)

Long time ago in the Scottish Highlands. A tribe that lives in a rough and harsh surrounding, strengthened over generations by the unfriendly environment. The borders of the tribes territory are not exactly known. In particular, in the North, the saying goes that vast areas of unoccupied lands will belong to those that first dare to claim it. So a small troup of currageous military men sets foot to the Northern Frontier ...

Composition-wise: The piece explores the change of atmosphere when the same motive is played with different accompaniments. The same theme can be found for instance @ 0:00 ff,  0:23 ff and 1:05 ff. The accompaniment increases in intensity and rhythm for these three instances, ranging from a meditative intro over a – to my ears – tribal dance or chant towards a first  climax of the piece which might make a good soundtrack for a battle in the Scottish Highlands. The track then settles down to the second theme @ 1:33 which again is repeated with much more agitated accompaniment @ 1:55 ff. 

While the track is in general in 4/4, it raises the tension by sometimes breaking the metrum into more unconventional rhythmic structures. This holds in particular for @ 0:46 ff where the metrum changes to a succession of ¾, 4/4, ¾, 6/4, 6/4, 4/4, ¾, 4/4, ¾, ¾, ¾ and then reverts to the original 4/4. Also @ 2:09  there is in insert of a ¾ bar and at the very end @ 2:30, there is a 2/4 break just before the final chord. 

I did some Youtube Shorts in Case with more details on some composition tweaks that I used in this track:

The track has been recorded on a Roland FP-90 and mastered in Cubase by adding  reverb, a Stereo enhancer and fiddling a bit with the EQ.

The Northern Frontier

The Northern Frontier (Solo Piano)

bleached my eyes, now i s33 sonic that should[n[t]] see

Written 30 years ago, based on 2 Timothy 3…seems more relevant, now!

Lyrics:
Well, there’s an ocean for the draining 
Open empty skies, just waiting to be filled 
So many forests for the fire 
The love in life of many , it’s growing so cold 
Yeah, it’s growing so cold 

And I know a girl with a child she didn’t want 
And an angry young man, who only wants her love 
But I’m not free without the law 
And that defines the problems 
Who needs problems anymore? 
I don’t need them no more, that’s for sure 

Define deviance down 
Down upon the ground
It lifts you up, you get knocked back down
Define deviance down

So I’m wasting talent,my time, and all my money
For my will to be done, until Thy kingdom comes
Used to seem so wrong
Back in those days of black-and-white
But the shades of gray
Have left me blinded by the light
So now I call it right

What do I have to do with you?
Don’t know where we’re going
Are you going too?
Well, can’t you see?
Or are you so blind?
You just make your own rules
And leave the world behind
Don’t you know why?￼

￼￼￼

Defining Deviance Down

Wishing everyone all the best as we embark on this ever-evolving journey down the long and winding path that will lead us through the unknown peaks and valleys of this new year. And as the cosmic timekeeper turns the page on yet another chapter of our lives, may the journey be one that is overflowing in an abundance of love & prosperity. And don’t forget to revel in the scenery along the way. Have a blessed and Happy New Year!!

Don't Break Me Down

"Distanced" is a reflective ballad that captures the beauty and heartache of a long-distance relationship, drawing parallels with the infinite expanses of space, and the need for connection stifled by the realities of time and space. With spacey guitar tones and melancholic vocals, The Day Afters blend wistful lyrics with a modern indie sound. Perfect for late-night reflection.

Lyrics:
It’s the Distance - and the time we squandered, the days we found were- quickened.
A rhythm - as we break in two again, smash into ourselves - listen….   

If you want it - you get it - you get you let it go
When  you see it - it’s never what you’re looking for
You can dream - for more and more
What’s real is here, you feel it near - that’s yours

Absence - makes the heart grow fonder But my thoughts still wander - still with you
This system - demands you follow, Makes you swallow - puts us in this queue

If want it - you get it - you get you let it go
When you see it - it’s never what you’re looking for
You can dream - for more and more
What’s real is here, you feel it near - that’s yours

I Miss you - the earth is harder, the sun feels farther than it used to - and we’re just passing through

Trying to read you - I can't tell
Trying to reach you - No one’s there

Void Century

Distanced

The Scorpio

comin’ over
to my place tonight
dressed in clover
whets my appetite

i want to know
the afterglow

slide on over
i’ll take it at the light
black bulldozer
tailin’ us tonight

i feel the flow
the undertow

cold turkey
no way
i’ll get there
someday

now it’s over
turnin’ out the light
bruised all over
exiting stage right

i feel the flow
the vertigo
and now you know
the scorpio

New Track from Axel Knox and Conor Mcloughlin

BEATPORT

Feel The Sun (feat. Conor McLoughlin)

Cast of Characters:
John_Anthony-- @john-anthony-871225464 --guitar, mandolin
The Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel – vocals
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and high harmony on the end vocals
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– banjo, production, and mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, melody and harmony on the end vocals
This song began with John, who is a verifiable expert in all things Jimmy Page, asking me and the Eclectic Collective if we'd like to cover another Led Zeppelin song to follow Hey Hey What Can I Do? Of course, the Eclectic collective is always down to sink their teeth into some of the best rock and roll ever made. John found us recordings of the original Zep version that were separated into their individual tracks, so as we were adding, we could hear what our part would've sounded like playing with the original band. What a thrill!
  Ken was first to complete his part, and did a great job of capturing the frenetic energy of Bonzo. John was up soon after, amazing us with a note for note interpretation of Page on both the guitar and mandolin. I came next, after nearly deciding that JPS's part was too difficult. It wasn't. Then, when the bulk of the music was recorded, MD came through and stunned us with a brilliant interpretation of Plant's vocals. To bring it to a boil, Stephen then laid down his magical banjo in there, too. Lasty, Ken and I polished it off with some background vocals at the end. 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, who in this case was Stephen. He managed to even it out and get it to sound not only like the album, but very dynamic, as well. 
  This is the EC's second collaboration with John, and we're all stricken by how proficient he is at playing Page's material. If you dig what we did here, you can check out the video, too, right here, of us playing. It's on John's YouTube page, which also contains scores of other favorites from Zep, Floyd, and others. If you are interested in seeing how your favorite Zep tunes were played, it's definitely worth a stroll through and watch.  Here's the link to his page. Also, you can find us doing Hey Hey What Can I Say? on there, too.  https://youtube.com/@johnanthony5720?si=7YqvUXLKkuXT4qjy
  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

#Life #Vibes #Summer 

Intro
Si je m'accroche à la vie (x2)

Si je m'accroche à la vie c'est l'essentiel
Y'a rien d'artificiel à regarder le ciel 
Et si je suis heureux ainsi c'est l'essentiel
Alors pourquoi refouler l'état naturel 
Qui me réussit et ça c'est l'essentiel
Vu qu'il me soulage comme si j'avais des ailes 
Car au final ne pas se mentir est essentiel 
Tout comme de respecter les gens est essentiel 
Ainsi je vois l'avenir avec philosophie 
En refusant d'avoir des rapports sur le profit 
Quitte à me faire taxer de naïf et de candide 
Je préfère demeurer honnête plutôt qu'être cupide 

Refrain (x1)
Si je m'accroche à la vie (x3)
C'est l'essentiel !

Si je reste positif c'est essentiel
Vis à vis des aléas de la vie qui nous blessent 
Alors le sourire est vraiment essentiel 
Afin de détendre les relations passionnelles 
Avant qu'elles ne dérapent vu qu'il est essentiel 
De contenir les gens pour éviter de potentiels 
Drames qui sont sans fondements rationnels 
Dans la plupart des cas puisqu'obsessionnels 
Voilà pourquoi j'ai décidé de relativiser 
La vie étant si courte que je préfère utiliser 
Mon temps à tisser des liens puis à sympathiser 
Avec des individus sans les vampiriser 

Refrain (x1)

Si je me bats pour mes idées c'est essentiel 
De rester lucide loin du superficiel 
Qui me détournerait de ce but essentiel 
Que je poursuis depuis " Imaginez la scène " 
Avec la même intégrité qui m'est essentielle 
Pour diffuser un message universel 
Qui parlerait d'unité puis d'amour essentiel 
Loin des conflits stériles et souvent démentiels 
Alors j'ai fait le choix d'opter pour l'inventivité 
Plutôt que de résider dans la normalité 
Dans laquelle j'aurais tout perdu jusqu'à l'identité 
Qui m'est essentielle afin de garder ma liberté 

Refrain (x1)

#Dream #Truth #Heart #Boombap

Refrain (x1)

Allez viens que l’on parte loin 
Rejoins-moi pour que l’on soit enfin bien 
Quittons cette vie qui ne mène à rien 
Viens il existe un autre chemin 
Loin du chaos, des barreaux, du boulot, des bourreaux
Tout est faux viens !
Prends la main que je te tends
Il nous reste si peu de temps pour tout quitter dans l’instant
Comprends bien  
Que le temps n’est pas notre allié 
Par milliers des destins furent balayés, broyés 
Allez viens !
Mais ne te retourne pas sur tes pas
N’hésite pas comme ça
Allez viens !

Mais où veux-tu que j’aille 
Partout c’est la même 
Obligé de rentrer de la maille
Pour payer son bail 
La vie est une bataille 
Où l’État se taille 
La plus grosse part du gâteau
Tandis que sur la paille 
Les foyers se meurent 
La misère demeure
Y’a pas de légion d’honneur 
Pour les parents qui font preuve de grandeur 
C’est tendu à tout heure
Et y’a plus vraiment d’espoir dans nos cœurs 

Refrain (x1)

Mais que pourrais-je faire 
Quitter un enfer
Pour me retrouver en galère 
Dans une autre ville 
Un univers hostile 
Où ça survit par le deal comme ici 
Le Paradis n’est pas ici-bas
Je constate qu’on se tape plus
Qu’on s’épaule qu’on se frappe comme en taule 
Les halls sont des lieux
Qui polluent nos âmes 
Des pierres tombales
Qui n’arrêtent pas les balles 

Refrain (x1)

Mais comment peut-on s’enfuir 
D’un monde où s’en sortir  
Sans le moindre centime 
Est une chose impossible 
Les issues de secours sont condamnées 
Les sangsues, les vautours 
Ont fait de nous des damnés 
Nos vies sont fanées 
Nos rêves éliminés 
Par la froideur de la réalité
J’aimerais pourtant un nouveau décor
Mais je pense ne pas l’apercevoir avant la mort 


Refrain (x1)

Allez viens ! 
Allez viens !

Allez Viens ! (Arman Prod)

Cast of Characters:

Roy Roy – @user-967672349 – Roy – foundational guitar, composition, and arrangement
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, electric piano, synth sax, synth strings, synth brass, production, and mix
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– whah guitar, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, percussion 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass

This song began as a well developed, funky disco idea Roy came up with on his guitar, and shared with JJ. JJ added a wonderfully complex orchestration of various keys, including brass, strings, and the sax solo you hear towards the end. 
  JJ invited Stephen Stephen first, who came up with the funky ass wah guitar that also carries the groove. Of course, JJ realized that this is a disco song, so he enlisted Ken to come up with one of his awesome beats to carry it along. JJ had a rudimentary bass line that he played himself, but decided to get me to do the honors instead. So, I came up with a totally new bass line designed to shake your cheeks.
Once it was in the can, we decided to ask have JJ mix it for us. This is a first time JJ has mixed a song for The Eclectic Collective, and we were all impressed with his work. Stephen mastered it, as he is a master masterer. 
  We're all really impressed and delighted with the experience of working with Roy and his music. He is a very talented artist with a lot of great music to check out on his page, too.
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it, and that it makes you shake your hips while you're doing the dishes, too!

Shag Carpet (Eclectic Collective with Roy Roy)

Cast of Characters:

Frans Beelaard – @user-936947521 – Fender electric bass, Roland synthesizer bass, Gibson SG electric guitar rhythm, Godin electric guitar slide background, trumpet background, horn section, including alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, Hohner Blues Bender harmonica solo, Gibson 335 electric guitar background rhythm, a full set drum kit, percussion, cowbell, and tambourine! He also composed the song
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–  Duesneberg Starplayer TV Phonic hollow body electric guitar
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – Gibson Les Paul electric guitar
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha workstation organ and piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–lyrics and vocals 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – PRS semi-hollow body electric guitar


This is a song that Frans wrote, recorded, and gave to Josh to share with the Eclectic Collective. Frans is playing all the foundational instruments of the incredibly intricate yet perfectly foundational rhythm section, including Fender electric bass, Roland synthesizer bass, Gibson SG electric guitar rhythm, Godin electric guitar slide background, trumpet background, horn section, including alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, Hohner Blues Bender harmonica solo, Gibson 335 electric guitar background rhythm, a full set drum kit, percussion, cowbell, and tambourine. As mentioned in the previous sentence, he also plays the amazing harp solo after the second verse. All of Frans's music is a dazzling display of solo work on top of a dense, rock solid rhythm section. So, in that spirit, this song is a display of all of us taking 12 bars to show what we can do.
  Tez was first to add his expert blues guitar in the section right after the opening vocals. Josh took the next slot, with the notey second guitar solo on the first chorus section. Stephen added his fiery guitar next, in the last slot, after Frans's harp solo. JJ was next in line, though, bringing his piano and organ to the mix, both in a support role throughout, and in the piano solo between Josh's solo and the second verse. Ken, then came up with some lyrics and sung the whole thing for us, very ably and in the propper spirit of the song (which was named randomly by Frans). 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, and we tapped Stephen to do the honors here, as he's our resident expert producer. 
  We are all honored and very grateful to Frans, whom we all respect and admire to a very high degree, for sharing this with us. On the off chance you aren't familiar with him, do yourself a favor and check out his page. He's as talented a multi-instrumentalist as you'll ever come across, with hours of astounding music on his page.
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we all enjoyed creating it.
Original Lyrics by K2 and the Three:
I got a bull legged woman,
You know that’s where it’s at
Gotta bull legged woman 
You know that’s where it’s at
The devil may care, 
but he don’t know thin from fat
Well!!

I got a bull legged woman 
You know that’s what I got
I got a bull legged woman
You know that’s what I got
A dope ass Betty
5’ 4”, and she’s smoking hot
 
Hey fellas, can I get a witness?

I got a bull legged woman 
you know that’s what I have
Gotta bull legged woman 
You know that’s what I have
She’s all stacked up, she’s mine
And she’s got the Jaz

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – traditional gourd form body sitar and lap steel


 This is a song that Chris wrote on the drums, bass, and guitar and shared with the collective. We all love working on Chris's songs, and got to work on it even more enthusiastically than usual. Josh was up first with his lap steel, which he weaves throughout. He also added the sitar at the beginning and the acoustic sitar at the end. Stephen stepped in and added the gnarly electric sitar at the end. JJ also made his presence heard by adding the thrilling organ and electric piano throughout. Ken then augmented Chris's original drums with his own in expert fashion. Last, but not least, Tez added his electric guitat magic to the stew, as well. 

  Since Chris brought this song to the group, and is a fine producer, he did the honors of the mix and production. 

  This is our latest with Chris, whose music we all adore. If you dig this, you should go check out his page, as it contains lots of wonders to hear. We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

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 guiar 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, millenia 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

Moonlight Dance (feat. Fr. Harris)

I search for sounds and assemble them. I purposely switch the order. I try switching different rhythms for each phrase. Usually, a song is born that is like a "poker hand" with no winnings. This time, an image was born. An image that I didn't intend to create appeared. It's a lot of fun to fantasize about where I'm heading.

Images I drew with sounds (305)

Recorded in Modesto, Ca. Featuring Hammond B3 Organ with Bass Peddles. Soprano Saxophone Solo. Acoustic Standup Bass. Hammond B3 Organ solo. Drums full kit. Percussion 22" Zildjan Ride & Crash Cymbals.

Cast of Characters:

J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, electric piano, and seed idea
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar, production, and mix
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass
The Eclectic Collective -- composition
 
This song started with JJ during one of his late Saturday night composition sessions, where he came up with the idea on his synth. He laid down some great organ and electric piano for the rest of us to play with. Ken was first up with his lively, raucous drums. He and I did our back and forth with the rhythm section until it was solid, though. Then Stephen laid in his dirty, rawkin' rhythm guitar to give it an extra foundation. Finally, Tez put the icing on the cake with his monster soloing throughout. 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer. In this case, Tez did the honors in a very expert manner. We wanted Stephen (Texmex Shaman) on this, too, of course, but he is just now getting settled into his new abode, and was in flux while we were making this one. He'll be back with The Eclectic Collective next week, though. 
  This is an example of Eclectic Collective teamwork. It came together relatively quickly, which means we were all having fun doing it. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Avalanche (Eclectic Collective)

This is new take on a song that Rodolfo and I first worked on 4 years ago. He had always imagined it with fine saxophone and great backing harmonies and now that Continental Collision has a wonderful pool of talent to draw on, that has become a reality, thanks to Ce Mastro and Georg Boehme's beautiful contributions.
The song has been given so much more feeling and emotion.
Thanks to them and Rodolfo for believing that we could succeed  and thanks to all of you for listening.

A Stranger In Your Heart - Continental Collision featuring Ce Mastro & Georg Boehme

I don't know what I've done wrong?
I don't know why you have gone?
Though I hope some day,
When I whisper your name,
We'll be together.
But today's too soon.
When I think of you, I dream.
Yet still, I'm a stranger,
Yet still, I'm a stranger in your heart.

Sometimes I feel like a fool.
Never knowing whether you'll,
Give me hope some day,
Still I call your name.
We'll be together.
Is today too soon?
When I think of you, I dream.
No longer a stranger,
No longer a stranger in your heart.

A Stranger In Your Heart - Continental Collision (featuring Ce Mastro and Georg Boehme)

Lacrime di Sogni by Primiero Massimo released in 26/05/2009
sung by Luca Giordano
freely inspired by the italian novel L'ultima lacrima by Stefano Benni

Lacrime di sogni (english lyrics) :
New dawn gives present to mysterious stuff with no own life
many questions about them research in vitro to answer
uncertain reflex unknown desire of dreams in real life
uncertain reflex flies on you
dreams and ambitions always isolated mass's fear all around us
reflected fears in curious eyes that melt dreams of desidered life.
uncertain reflex unknown desire of dreams in real life
uncertain reflex flies on you
adults unable to live their dreams 
mystery revealed by lively children wondered by life 
mystery revealed
Everything You were Everything You wanted was always inside you
waiting inside tears.
mystery revealed by joyful children wondered by life 
mystery revealed
Dreams and desires with no answers
Sense of guilt and unsolved mysteries profits in sold words.
uncertain reflex unknown desire of dreams in real life
uncertain reflex flies on you
Lonely dreams and ambitions and social phobia spread all around 
Fears reflected in a curious look that dissolve dreams of a desired life
uncertain reflex unknown desire of dreams in real life
uncertain reflex flies on you
Tears and dreams are here among us
Tears and dreams will never die
killer substitute deceives you to be unbeatable and going faster 
in your desideres.
Power to your life Energy to your soul
realize them don't be frauded
Power to your life Energy to your soul
realize them don't be frauded

Friendships

Mystic Unity is a musical journey that crosses borders and shows the beauty in the connection between cultures. Through the fusion of Arabic sounds and Western harmonies, I want to celebrate the diversity and depth of two musical worlds and show what can happen when we are open to each other.

Mystic Unity invites us to embrace different perspectives and discover the unknown ... melodies and rhythms merge in a unique way. I look forward to taking you on this journey and hope it inspires you.

Oh Soleil

Lyrics

Oh soleil,
ne me quittes pas,
gardes moi avec toi,
après l'été,
le cœur envouté,

Oh soleil,
un œil sur la mer,
sans vent contraire,
sous un bleu lunaire,

tu rougit à la nuit,
posé sur une mer d'huile,
tes aurores boréales,
comme des messages subliminales,

Oh soleil,
tu demeures éternel,
perché là haut dans le ciel,
tu es la vie, tu es le miel,


Oh soleil,
pour nous les êtres éphémères,
tu es la lumière,
sur cette terre,

Oh soleil,
tu es mon réveil,
Oh soleil,
mon sommeil,


Oh soleil,
mon éternel, 
mon arc en ciel,
mon univers, 



Oh Soleil

Nifty Collective - The Catwalk

Track shows a very delicate theme and a quite hard-riffed part, both alternating and finally flowing up to an endless symphonic dream (words are half a poem I wrote previously (not these, but lyrics below)).

Letra  /  Translated lyrics:

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)  /  Don’t you wake up (Only a dream)

No... despierta... no... no despiertes  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up
no, cuidado... no despiertes, na na na na na...  /  no, take care ... don’t you wake up, na na na na na…
... despierta al fin y date cuenta  /  ... wake up at last and realize
de que todo ha sido un sueño, na na na na na...  /  everything has been a dream, na na na na na...

Una vez más, nervios y resentimiento,  /  Once again, nerves and resentment,
todo en mi vida es sueño, sólo ha sido eso.  /  everything in my life is a dream, it has only been so.

Y de nuevo, con el tiempo,  /  And again, with time,
incubando un nuevo sueño,  /  incubating a new dream,
me voy hundiendo en mis propios brazos,  /  I am sinking in my own arms,
me acuno, me canto y me voy acostumbrando...  /  cradle myself, sing to myself and get used...

Otro escenario, otros personajes,  /  Another stage, other characters,
la misma historia, na na na na na...  /  the same story, na na na na na...
que durará un día, un milenio,  /  which will last one day, a millenium,
toda mi vida, na na na na na...  /  all my life, na na na na na...

Pero sin duda vendrán a despertarme  /  But undoubtedly the laughs of people
las risas de la gente, alguna tarde.  /  will come to wake me up, any evening.

Y entonces, con miedo...  /  And then, fearfully...

No... despierta… no… no despiertes (…)  /  No ... wake up ... no ... don’t you wake up (…)

No despiertes (Sólo un sueño)

"Magic is what we do. Music is how we do it." -- Jerry Garcia

Welcome to my page, my peers, associates, friends, and musical family. I'm a lifelong, multi-instrumentalist musician who records prolifically and joyfully. You'll hear me play guitar, bass (regular four string, and four and five string fretless), mandolin, banjo, keys (piano, organ, synth), lap slide, sitar, and sing on my recordings here. I've been in a few dozen bands in my life, playing everything from bluegrass, jazz, rock, jam band, reggae, funk, afrobeat, Middle Eastern, traditional Irish, singer/songwriter, pop/covers, to experimental/avant garde. 
  Since I found SoundCloud a couple years ago, I've found many talented, creative people with whom to create music. However, in the summer of '23 I formed a band called The Eclectic Collective with some of my favorite musicians I've met through here. It started as a loose collective of musicians and coalesced into a core group of musicians who find other musicians with whom we'd like to make music, then run their songs through our process, and in effect add a full band. That core of The Eclectic Collective includes Tez (Llanpsych), J.J. Terrel, Ken (K2 and the Three), Stephen (Texmex Shaman), Chris (cgmaness), and Mark (mistermark). A couple of other musicians are frequent collaborators, as well, including Artur of Surfers Like Us, and Steve Vervaet of Steve's World. More recently, we've been joined by Carl of The Beautiful Dark fame. 
  The magic of music is amplified exponentially by each person adding to it. So, we really try to add our sorcery all kinds of music from all kinds of artists. Sometimes, we keep it within the group, but a lot of what we do is collaboration with other artists. Therefore these days, 100% of what I do is collaboration, within the group or with other artists on the side.
  I, and we, are also available for hire if you have a song or lyrics and you really want to add bigger instrumentation or a band and good production to it. 
  A small sampling of the artists whom I consider primary influences, and whom you will hear coming through my fingers include Phish, The Flaming Lips, The Grateful Dead, Radiohead, Rye Cooder, Steve Earle, Miles Davis, Fela Kuti, Arcade Fire, Mikey Dread, Yellowman, Purpleman, The Meditations, Michigan and Smiley, Lee Perry, Dillinger, Django Reinhardt, Impossible Recording Machine, The Allman Bros Band, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Bela Fleck, Les Claypool, Sam Bush, David Grissman, John Prine, Talking Heads, Beastie Boys, MMW, Moe., Morphine, Ween, Steve Lukather, Michael McDonald, John Abercrombie, Dave Holland, John Scofield, Victor Wooten,  Cannonball Adderly, Thelonious Monk, Flea, Parliament Funkadelic,  Frank Zappa, Prince Paul, Pete Rock, Thievery Corporation, Amon Tobin, Chet Baker, Joao Gilberto, Stan Getz, Astrud Gilberto, Carol Kaye, Tame Impala, Mumford and Sons, Japanese Breakfast, LCD Soundsystem, Beach House, Sean Lennon, and Billy Strings, but of course there are many more. I also really like and am influenced by traditional Iranian, Palestinian, Indian, Sri Lankan, Sudanese, Mauritian, Somalian, Egyptian, West African, and Syrian music. I welcome anyone who plays non-western music to contact me for a collaboration, too.
 I'm overjoyed to have found my community on SoundCloud. This is a truly unique forum where everyone is sincerely trying to build each other up. The profoundly supportive and positive SoundCloud community has really opened up an exciting new world of collaboration for me. That is the main reason I'm in the Cloud, actually, to connect with other musicians and make music that I enjoy listening to, and hopefully others do, as well. I am ALWAYS looking to collaborate with interesting musicians, mostly though BandLab, which is where I record almost exclusively. It's a solid, free digital audio workstation hub where you can share recording projects, even if it's not where you make your recordings.
  Everything I do is live instrumental, not programmed, and using no computer beyond my phone. That's not to say that I would be opposed to using that kind of tool, it's just not my preferred medium with which to paint. If you like my music, please share it. If you want to collaborate, my BandLab handle is @bingo_pajama. Feel free to contact me at cornbreadband@hotmail.com, as well, even if you aren't on BandLab.
  If your music is primarily AI, please don't come around my page, as I'm not at all interested in complimenting a machine.
  Here's a link to music I've recorded live with a group of musicians here in Pittsburgh called The Northumberland Street Ramblers.
