YES! Loving this approach from you guys! Your percussion really pulled me in at the beginning

What an amazing song that you guys all captured here is some much detail and unharnessed energy !! A real booty-shakin’ rhythm section to go along with the high flying leads and general all-around melodic goodness.

Very, very cool soundScape here Ken! A good blend of different styles and instruments. Great job by all!👍😎✌🏼

Wonderful stretch into new genre territories! I was mentioning to Josh that this kind of reminds me of Frans Beelar, apparently his name came up while you were making it? Such a nice laidback energy to the piece. Nice adaptation to the beat style for your drums chugging along back there. Cool meandering melodic lines throughout, a really fun one!

Hi Ken, cool drums here. I was just listening to Country Ham over on Josh's channel, and started making my way to the other EC channels to spread the love. Decide here at your channel to check another one out instead of spamming CHam. Looked for one that promised compelling percussion, and this looked like the one. Great work on both!

Yepa , it's a rhythm you can't resist. If teleportation existed, it would be cool to have you all on my beach in Ondres, my village in France. You'd have us dancing till dawn. 🎶🏄‍♂️

¡Guau, esta canción es genial! Me encanta cómo combina elementos de bossa nova con sonidos electrónicos, ¡es muy fresco y original! Además, la producción es impecable, cada detalle está

Hey man. Well done on latest with Joe. Great stuff. Great job here too I forgot to show you the love 🙌🏽🔆

Rain...too little of it and there is drought, too much of it and there are deadly, destructive floods, just the right amount and the earth flourishes; crops grow, gardens bloom, our spirits are refreshed and encouraged.  This song begs the questions; are mankind's plans, philosophies, charitable endeavors, or selfish goals like the rain that can benefit mankind or destroy it?  Do novel ideas work for the moral structure of humanity or is the ancient wisdom better? There are no easy answers to the questions Peter asks in the lyrics, but they are questions we should consider as we see the world aflame--which is another blessing of rain, it can put out fires.

Rain
And so it rains
Will it wash away tomorrow’s hopes,
Leave us stranded in our yesterdays
Clinging to the fraying ropes
Swinging helplessly in vain

And yet it rains
Both the means to life or drowning death
Spilling ‘cross the flooding plains
Sucking out the terminal breath
Forever and again

I stand here naked, cold and blue
Stripped of pride and freedom too
Aspirations drained, subdued
As heaven’s cloudbursts purge me through

And still it rains
Will it cleanse, refresh, renew the truth
Sanitise and ease the pain
Or launder filthy failure’s proof
To try and hide the liar’s stain

And it will rain
While lunatics still yield the whip
Indoctrination’s game remains
The crass politico’s iron grip
Will euthanise our children’s brains

……and so it rains

Rain (with Conny, Peter And David)

Can’t chase the days
They’re gone
You can find out what is left of you
trading your ways
for a life of gratitude
send her this song
before the train leaves out of Berney Arms

Play to this paltry rhyme
Stay near the edge of time
Tides of tears still drying
Fear so cold, melt the ice with fire

The glow
Of that darkened window
Save my soul
For the haunted kingdom
Hear the train, once again, my babe
Wring the nape of all that God creates

Hear the train once, again, my babe
Wring the nape of all that God creates

This song began in the dead of winter on a cold night with Josh sitting in his studio with his acoustic guitar playing along to a looper beat. He loves bossa nova music and wanted to write a song in that style. Of course, he wrote it with the Eclectic Collecive in mind. 
  Josh also came up with the bass line to the looper, but changed it once Ken weighed in with his perfectly suited drum kit. He also added the funky main percussion you hear throughout. Then JJ got involved and laid down that wonderfully melodic organ part you hear in there. Josh, having not laid down a lead guitar part yet, used JJ melodic idea for the first verse, too, because it's so strong. Mark was last to the trough, but added several really stunning parts that added a lot of depth to the whole thing. He's responsible for the horn arrangement that accompanies JJ's organ solo, as well as the horn arrangement and entire break section at the end, which he not only drumed on, but edited and inserted seamlessly, as well. He also added percussion to Ken's percussion throughout the entire song, as well. He still gets paid the same as the rest of us, though 
  This is an example of us Josh introducing an unfamiliar type of music, and it being picked up on and carried through expertly as a group unit. We all love a challenge in the EC, and this fit the bill. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Mark was last to the table, bringing several really stunning parts that added a lot of depth to the whole thing. He's responsible for the horn arrangements that joins in from JJ's organ around the middle, those funky percussion flourishes and fills, and then creating that percussion breakdown near the end, playing everything you hear in that break. 
This is an example of Josh exploring a less typical type of music, and it being picked up on and carried through expertly as a group unit. We all love bringing in different influences in the EC, and this fit the bill. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

And here’s a short excerpt of the the rhythm section with all the percussion action more isolated:

"The Quilcom Trout synthesiser is a tribute to the Trautonium in its many incarnations and versions", Quote Rex Baxterfield, who created this free vst. The Trautonium is the first Synth from 1930, well known from A. Hitchcock's The Birds. Well, I used Trout 5 times in this track + drum and bass vst + flute ! ....  Famous are compositions for Trautonium from Paul Hindemith, German Composer, who accompanied the development of the Trautonium as a university teacher and was a kind of "Bürgerschreck" (musical bogey) at that time, because of his "modernity" ... :-)
