Good music is like fine wine cant get enough of it love it.❤️‍🔥💥

the intro sounds so nice, then your voice, fine track, you also record with your phone?

Wonderfully accomplished songwriting and vocal.

I often use phone recordings in lieu of more formal means and it can really carry a deeper feel like you capture so well here with fine lyrics, compelling vocals and guitar picking. Durge

This is how it’s done! Cautionary tale delivered so well!

admirable lyrics and honest delivery, love it.

Another Ride On The Wrong Boat

Fools Gold

Au Bord Des Vagues

Back before I met you I dreamed about today
But now that we’re together I wish you’d go away
Before we met, I fantasized about how things would be
But now that we’ve had some history

Sometimes I just wish that I could be alone
Far, far, far away
Far, far far away
Far, far, far, far, far away from you

The day we met was sunny
We had lots of sizzle 
But after awhile the clouds rolled in and it started to drizzle 
I was convinced that the good times were here to stay
But now all I want to do is just get away

Sometimes I just wish that I could be alone
Far, far, far away
Far, far far away
Far, far, far, far, far away from you

I think I would be counting all my lucky stars
If someone offered me a one-way ticket to Mars
Just put me in a rocket and shoot me into outer space
I’ll do whatever I can to get out of this place

Far, far, far away
Far, far far away
Far, far, far, far, far away from you

Far, far, far away
Far, far far away
Far, far, far, far, far away from you

Far Away From You

This Car Is Not A Truck

It looks so good from far away
but when you’re up close you can smell the decay
The skyscrapers stand tall and proud 
but down below there’s a beaten crowd

But you can’t smell the stench the stench that hovers around you
you can’t smell the stench cause you’re living in an ivory tower
and the con men stalk their human prey 
as the junkies shoot their problems away
cause it’s just another sunny day in the bright shiny city

A testament to the progress of man
total domination of the land
concrete and asphalt spread like a disease
obliterating plants, animals and trees

But you can’t smell the stench
the stench that hovers around you
you can’t smell the stench 
cause you’re living in an ivory tower

We built a shining city up on a hill
But we caught a bug and now we're ill
and the only cure is a bitter pill
They say it takes a village but the corporations steal
Smells like we got the wrong end of the deal

But you can’t smell the stench the stench that hovers around you
you can’t smell the stench cause you’re living in an ivory tower

We build our walls to hide behind
We install our locks and close our minds
Anarchy and chaos throughout the land
Things are not going according to plan
Forces unleashed beyond our control
We’re falling into a bottomless hole

You can’t smell the stench the stench that hovers around you
you can’t smell the stench cause you’re living in an ivory tower
And the con men stalk their human prey 
as the junkies shoot their problems away
Cause it’s just another sunny day in the bright shiny city
Cause it’s just another sunny day in the bright shiny city

Cast of Characters:
Steve's Planet-- @steve-vervaet —Steve—acoustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, composition/arrangement
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–electric guitar
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—organ and piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and rhythm guitar
cgmaness-- @user-419254289-15129531 – Chris -- electric guitar
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–electric guitar, production and mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – five string fretless bass 

This song was released a few weeks ago as a mix that Stephen did. Tez, being the equally talented producer that he is, decided to make a mix that highlighted the interplay between the guitars and the keys. This mix is more focused on the instruments, while still giving Steve's vocals their due. 
  The song was written by Steve on the acoustic guitar. He passed it along to Ken, who added a sturdy rhythm acoustic guitar, as well as his always solid, dynamic drums to it. In short order, Ken got the rest of the Eclectic Collective together on it, starting with Josh, who added his five string fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. Next up was JJ, who's keys, both organ and piano, can be heard livening the whole thing up. Then came Tez with his fiery ripping guitar fills. 
  We were all blown away, though, when Stephen added his equally ripping guitar fills as responses to Tez's parts. It really sounds like the two maestros are having a conversation. Not to be outdone, Chris sprinked some of his magical guitar to fill in the spaces, mostly at the beginning.  
  We all really enjoy working on Steve's songs, although it's been a few months since we did one together.  It's been proven many times before that if,you start out with something good, and you end up with some thing great. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Original lyrics by Steve Vervaet:
I hope we ever meet x2
I hope to see you again
I hope to see you smile
I hope to be your friend x2
Hand in hand, hand in hand
Once again x3
I hope you shake my hand
On the boulevard
Gazing at the stars, gazing at the stars
I hope you ever be, a part of family
A comfort zone for me x2
To be around in everything I found
Please, please love me, forever being around
Hope you ever be, a part of me
Hope to touch your eyes, I hope to touch your love
One day you’ll see that you belong with me

Hope We Ever Meet - Llanpsych mix

Here's another one of my early demos with Garageband.

I Miss You (Demo 2016)

There's a girl in my neighborhood
She turns all the heads
She looks so good
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood
I gotta stop
Think for a minute
How much better this world is
With all of you in it
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood.

There's an old man
Just up the street
Sometimes he's surly
Sometimes he's sweet
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood
I gotta stop
Think for a minute
How much better this world is
With all of you in it
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood

We don't have to be like
Best friends or lovers
We don't have to be
Like sisters or brothers
Ain't too hard to realize
To grasp or discover
We got nothing in this world
We got nothing in this world
If we don't have each other

Bunch of young kids
Playing on my grass
Obnoxious and loud
A pain in the ass
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood
I gotta stop
Think for a minute
How much better this world is 
With all of you in it
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood

Now there's some people
I don't recognize
They're not from 'round here
I realize
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood
I gotta stop 
Think for a minute
How much better this world is
With all of you in it.

We gotta stop
Think for a minute
How much better this world is
With all of us in it
My neighborhood
In my neighborhood

State of confusion  lyrics

I went to a doctor because i hear things  that aren’t there
My mind wanders mentally
I hope you take this seriously

Perception deceiving
Perception  Not believing

I’m hearing voices
That no one else hears
The sound ’s so frightening me
Because   i know they aren’t real

Perception deceiving
Perception  Not believing

So doctor you must help me
To chase this voices and visions away

Tell me this hallucinations are only  temporarally

I  feel things moving under my skin
Imagine the state wher” I’m in
State of confusion, depression hallucination
confusion, depression hallucination

(In layers: lyrics all together)

Late Afternoon Daydream

ITS 1917 IN SURREY AND

 FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOPS TO THE LOWLAND SEAS NEW LINES ARE DRAWN IN CASUALTIES

It’s been nice but I can not stay
I’ve seen what the papers say
Reminds me of what Iago said
And part of it stuck in my head
Hey slacker some men in khaki cry
It’s the green eyed monsters call to die
But it mocks the meat on which it feeds 
As the more it takes the more it needs

And at Madame Lind’s the lights are on
The clink of Glass and pianola song 
I can still hear as I reach my door 
Where a letter looms on the hallway floor

Now I was nearly forty one
when I appealed for my exemption 
For domestic hardship would ensue 
If I should limp round the colours too
Cause rheumatic fever did for me
When I was young my stick you see
So to aid the prosecution of the war 
In a civil role I’d help much more

And mechanically it carries on 
The ticking clock goes on and on 
Below the mantle piece supine on my knees
The fires lit with obituaries 

And like the steam from the six forty six
I was compelled into a new office
Where the letters swam in elusive shoals
I cast my net of coherent wholes
And the thief of time had been and gone
when the knot i tied it came undone
And that’s when I began to roam 
Beneath starlight and hedgerow 
I made my home

And I woke with the feathered songsters song 
And in my bones I felt the sunlight shone
Touched by the beauty of life and its brevity 
From small mindedness momentarily 

I took my, I took my, I took my , I took my      leave

Some of our art is made on computers, some of it is made by hand. We are particularly interested in that gray area in between where you cant really tell. All of what we create here is one work laid out in segments, all connected. The Mystic Tape Deck universe is vast and explores all manner of adding meaning to our lives, while pondering meaninglessness.

Please consider supporting our project and helping us complete the work. We make books and cds that go with them. We also have a graphic novel and a custom oracle deck in the works. All part of the story.

Greetings to you: readers, beaders, seekers, wanderers, wonderers, outsiders, rebels, fantasy gamers, freaks, mythologists, philosophers, appreciators, creators, perpetuators of beauty, coveters of mysterious objects, collectors of counter culture, the curious, the questioners, the unusual, the unique, the star children, the light workers, shadow integrators, diviners, alchemists, hermits, monks and popes, the saviors and prophets, the builders and destroyers of worlds, the old ones, the young ones, the rollers of boulders, the sun orbiters, the morning star dewdrops and twinkle toed dreamers of dreams, you mystic shining beacons, you crossers and denizens of the void, reality shapers, universe makers and underworld freaks.

"A prominent feature of avant-garde music is to break through various rules and regulations of traditional culture, in order to transcend established creative principles and appreciation habits. Avant-garde music pursues novelty in musical form and style, insisting that art is above everything else; thus, it creates a transcendental and mysterious sound world. Hint, metaphor, symbol, association, imagery, synesthesia and perception are widely used in avant-garde music techniques to excavate the mystery of human heart and the flow of consciousness, so that many seemingly unrelated but essentially very important events interweave into multi-level structures and forms."

I specialize in sub-par cell phone recordings with a mix of Americana, folk, blues, and... whatever else you want to call it. Typically recorded in my basement while trying very hard not to wake up the kids. 

I really love listening to everyones music. There are so many talented people on here. Thank you for sharing and thank you for listening.
