Daily Drops

Almost Halloween again, but I'll say it one more time anyway.
We have one planet, where we all live. No one can escape anywhere from this tiny speck of dust in the universe.

Then it is so incredibly unimaginable that people in so many countries renounce their dignity and their human rights to pay tribute to tyrannical leaders. Leaders who commit virtually every crime that can be committed against people in their own homeland.
They have trampled, oppressed, imprisoned, forcibly relocated, put in re-education camps, imposed coercive laws, tortured and even murdered.
All just to maintain power and remain with their arms in the meat pots, in some kind of smug "I am god" madness that trumps everything. And some of them even see themselves as the rulers of the world in their delusion.
It's laughable if it weren't for the deep seriousness and suffering it causes many people in many parts of our world.

Throughout history, we have seen one lunatic crazier than the other rise to power through these completely absurd behaviors towards his people. And I cannot for the life of me understand how it can go on and on and on.
Is humanity so stupid? Obviously. Including myself according to the wishes I express here below.

I sometimes wish that all these ghosts from both history and the present revolted. And in a tidal wave, washed out all these elements and ensured that human evolution took a big step forward so that in the near future we could at least be called civilized.

But maybe that's the problem. That we who want to change use the wrong weapons, and thus fall prey to war and violence instead of development.
If there were more of us who used the pen as a sword, who used the guitar as a machine gun, drums and cymbals as artillery. Wrote, sang at the top of our lungs and told about the reality around us........

Well, many famous musicians have already done it, throughout the ages. Did it help?............ Well.....not so much........

So if we.....mumble........hmmm.......mumble.....hmm....mumble.......

Wha...what did you say?.........Oh crap, not another lunatic,..... again..........

I SEE GHOSTS! AROUND ME! EVERYWHERE!

isn't that a bit strange...;)

La Princesse Rouge – Original emotional piano

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--

Naked Shoulders (Stonerjazz with Eclectic Collective)

Requiem

Requiem - Part I-IV

there's is a lot that is wrong and a lot to be done. It won't happen if we don't do it. learn from the past.don't repeat mistakes.the world is the same anywhere you go. Differences among people are exaggerated insignificant quirks twisted by those who want to remain in power. we are all more alike than different


lyric

in the time that's left to me ,let me touch what's left to feel
in the time that's left to me, through the dim light let me see
I never needed to travel the globe cause the world always came to me

cause the sun,the moon, the rain the snow are constant everywhere
people laugh, people cry,people hope and people fear
nothing's different from here to there
it's all the same,nothing to fear

when will we learn that we have the power to turn dark into light
to feed the hungry and cloth the cold
with no damage to our body or danger to our soul

our lives are short but our legacy is long
the past must be our guide through the night to the dawn
so we can touch what must be touched
so we can see what must be seen
and not stay locked alone in ourselves for our tiny eternity

make a difference

Lyric

I don’t wanna miss moments
I don’t wanna miss miracles
I don’t wanna miss mysteries
I don’t wanna miss my life

The man who can see
 mystery in all things lives 
outside of time.

Every cloudy day
Every Single day
Every mundane life give me miracles
私は瞬間を見逃したくないの
私は奇跡を見逃したくないの
私は神秘を見逃したくないの
私は人生を見逃したくないの
あらゆるものに神秘を見る人は
時間の外に生きている
曇り空の日々
孤独の日々
どんなありふれた日々も奇跡を与えてくれる

Outside Of Time (J.J. And Khan)

The snow is fallin' on Christmas Eve
And I'm walkin down familiar streets
Warm food waits for me at home
Right now I'm happy just to feel the snow

But when we get back you'll be there
Smilin' at me from atop the stairs
The lights are glowing all around the place
A loving feeling resting on your face
This is your homemade Christmas
This is your homemade Christmas

Now I know where our home exists
It took awhile but I can admit
Not a place but it's all our own
Anywhere I'm with you, we're not alone

Presents and family are miles away
Along with memories of Christmas days
But we're together and that's all I need
warm on a homemade Christmas Eve...
This is your homemade Christmas
This is your homemade Christmas

All the promises that we have kept
replace the shiny new store bought gifts
The days ahead that we now see
Can't be wrapped under a Christmas tree...

The winter deepens in the frosty days
And glowing fires still keep me amazed
Inside our home's everything we need
When you wake up next to me...
On our homemade Christmas
On our homemade Christmas
