ENG / ITA Lyrics

Go that way
and then further that way
maybe you'll see each other again
if the time comes
for the usual formalities

leave him in these dark avenues
don't let him have an extra drop
dirty water stagnates
in pure brains

Just go over there
in that direction
get as far away as you can
from his words
and while you run and distract yourself a little
you meet the right man down the street
in a moment his heart catches fire
and you start to feel nostalgic


vai pure di là
e dopo oltre di là
vi rivedrete forse
se verrà il momento
per le solite formalità

lascialo pure in questi viali scuri
non concedergli una goccia in più
ristagna l'acqua sporca
nei cervelli puri

vai pure di là
in quella direzione
allontanati più che puoi
dalle sue parole
e mentre corri e ti distrai un poco
incontri l'uomo giusto proprio nella via
in un momento il suo cuore prende fuoco
e tu cominci ad avere nostalgia

Separazione (The Detachment) *

Hello everyone, 
I was thrilled from the very beginning when I heard the music of Sarah Paradise-Brown. Now I am not only very excited but also honored because Sarah entrusted me with my favorite song of hers to compose an orchestral arrangement. You can now hear the result of our collaboration.

The song is about the medicine that everyone needs to survive. 

Enjoy listening to the song and don't forget: 

“Love is all you need”.

The Medicine I Need (feat. Sarah Paradise-Brown)

Cast of characters:

Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – backup organs (Wurlitzer and B3), VST steel drums, vocals, lyrics, composition, production, mix     
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 electric piano voice and lead organ
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – Epiphone Les Paul electric guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Fender Custom Shop Telecaster electric guitar and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass

This song began with Mark, who fleshed out the entire thing, from the rhythm section, to the organ that you hear in there, to the lyrics and vocals, before he laid it on the rest of us. We all got a chuckle from the tongue in cheek humor of the lyrics, and were excited to work on a song about an anachronistic adventure of a soulful caveman. 
  Ken was first up with his version of the the beat, finding the soul in the rhythm. Josh was next up, of course, using his "normie" bass for the his version of the line. Once the rhythm section was in place, it was JJ's turn to shine, adding his slick, soulful e. piano to the mix. 
  Now that they had a solid foundation on which to play, Stephen and Tez added their guitar magic to the mix. Stephen with the rhythm and the fills, and Tez with the ripping solo at the end. Mark also added the festive VST steel drums that you hear throughout at this point, too. Now that the music was laid down, he perfected his awesome vocals to complete it.
  It was in the can at that point, and just needed Mark to throw a pro sounding mix on it. Then, Stephen mastered it in his always expert way to finish it off.
  Mark wanted to record an old skool classic Soul song (a la Al Green), which he did, all on his own. But then, once he unleashed it onto the EC gang for their interpretation, they ran with it in a whole new, almost tropical direction, and it was decided to release 2 versions of the song, both of which you can find on Mark's page. Stephen does double duty on guitar for both versions. 
  This was a real team effort, even though it's really Mark's baby. The Eclectic Collective has many different methods of creating music. This one was a great exercise in trying to bring about Mark's vision. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by mistermark:

Walking through this concrete jungle
I’m just trying to stay out of the way 
just me and ol’ Rex, my furry companion 
we been fielding funky looks all day
then somebody saw me kicking rocks with my bare toes
he said buddy have you lost your way?
then I sat right down and I started to cry
and this is what I had to say…

I’m a caveman, I can’t catch a break
everybody says I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say 

Sittin’ in my man cave watching the clock crawl
there's nothing good on my tv 
my big grubby hands can’t flip thru the channels
i cant even hold a cup of tea
I was chatting on the phone making plans with a lady
a little bit of company
but my date split QUICK when I opened the door
man I wonder what’s wrong with me

I’m a caveman, I can’t catch a break now
the ladies say I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say

The big city’s fine but something’s on my mind
I feel a little incomplete
I miss my old club, for rustling up some grub
and the touch of grass below my feet
I’ve been around longer than all your creation, 
like the rocks and trees and streams
I wanna get back home, where forever I’ll roam
even if it’s only in my dreams

I’m a caveman
I can’t catch a break 
everybody says I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say

I’m a caveman, 
must be come kinda mistake
everybody says I’m so passé 
well I’m a - a caveman
It’s too much to take
but I’m gunna get back some day

Well folks, it's that time of year again. It's time for the Eclectic Collective to take stock of the fruits of the year previous, and reflect on what making music together means to all of us. We hope you all take a chunk of time and indulge in our gift to you. We wanted to address every one of our SoundCloud friends with our voices as an intimate way to connect with each of you.
  This has become a tradition within the EC now that we've made it to our second (and a half) year of making music together. For the second time, JJ asked our friend and sometimes collaborator Jeff (Stonerjazz) to ask some interview questions of us. Then, we all came up with the answers and sent them to JJ to assemble the project.
  This mighty music machine we've created, that manages to release a new song every Friday, wouldn't mean anything if no one was listening to us. Which is why we want to extend our very sincere thanks to you for tuning in and supporting our efforts. If one other person gets joy from our music, that's such a huge accomplishment. However, it really feels like a bunch of people whom we really respect are digging what we're doing, which feels truly humbling and fulfilling. 
  With that, we hope you enjoy hearing us voice our thoughts over the highlights of our musical year as much as we enjoyed a year rich in music and comradery. Happy New Year!

The 2024 Eclectic Collective Rockumentary

Translation:
Anxiety rises in my empty head
Ideas that flee like acid
In front of this fatal sheet
Inspiration plays with my mazes

The hours pass I get lost
Each word seems too bitter
The crossings out pile up in mass
I look for the fleeting spark

my muse fled without a sound
Night falls and I am bored
Out of breath I give myself
On this blank page to survive

Dreams dissolve in the morning
The coffee cools endlessly
The choruses evaporate into the air
I write verses to do nothing

Reflection in the screen of the night
A shadow dances and smiles at me
Maybe at the end of the tunnel
Will I find the eternal moment

my muse fled without a sound
Night falls and I am bored
Out of breath I give myself
On this blank page I intoxicates me

Reflection in the night screen
A shadow dances and smiles at me
Maybe at the end of the tunnel
Will I find the eternal moment

Anxiety rises in my empty head
Ideas that flee like acid
In front of this fatal sheet
Inspiration plays with my mazes

The hours pass I get lost
Each word seems too bitter
The crossings out pile up in mass
I look for the fleeting spark

my muse fled without a sound
Night falls and I am bored
Out of breath I give myself
On this blank page to relive
