I don't know what's goin' on.
But it's gone on for too long.
It's so hard now to stay strong
when everything you feel seems wrong.
I used to wear an open heart
until our kind tore it apart.
I was to blame, or once I thought.
But we're the same, just different flaws.
And scars. And all. 

I used to cry myself to sleep.
And fear the words I used to speak. 
I've come to learn that I'm unique
and beauty hides between the seams.
So, now, although I walk alone,
I've learned to love myself and grown
into this man all on my own.
Now, please, fuck off, I'm getting stoned.

Such a great buzz to reconnect with my good friend, ŞöļäçėŠțřëęț, and receive this newly inspired lyrical / vocal flow, to a piece of improv guitar I posted a while back. Dedicated to a very special person.

Voices in my head
Takes control of me
Cruel things they say
They tell me how to be..

I use my body
So i don't have to think
To force them away
I dance and I drink..

To force them away
I dance and i drink

To force them away
I dance and i drink

Dancing
Da da da I'm dancing
I will da da dance
Da da da I'm dancing
I will da da dance through the night
I will win this fight!

Dancing
Da da da I'm dancing
I will da da dance
Da da da I'm dancing
I will da da dance through the night
I will win this fight!

Dance through the night
I will win this fight!

Dance through the night
I will win this fight!

They want me to stop
Tell me to give up
Says I'm so small
Trying to make me crawl..

But I'm not giving in
I will dance them away
My body is my tool
And set the rules!

My body is my tool
And I set the rules!

My body is my tool
And I set the rules!

Dancing
Da da da I'm dancing
I will da da dance
Da da da I'm dancing
I will da da dance through the night
I will win this fight!

IN MEMORY 

Blessed be Thou for all the joy
My soul has felt to-day!
O let its memory stay with me
And never pass away!


I was alone, for those I loved
Were far away from me;
The sun shone on the withered grass,
The wind blew fresh and free.


Was it the smile of early spring
That made my bosom glow?
'Twas sweet, but neither sun nor wind
Could raise my spirit so.


Was it some feeling of delight,
All vague and undefined?
No, 'twas a rapture deep and strong,
Expanding in my mind!


Was it a sanguine view of life
And all its transient bliss—
A hope of bright prosperity?
O no, it was not this!

Mysterious Forest Spirits

Finally returning to Italy (Sardinia to be precise) post Covid in a couple of months to go on residency. In anticipation of this adventure I will upload a few Italy based works from festivals etc that i have made over the last few years. This work  premiered as part of the 2021 Helicotrema festival. Official arty wanky explanation below:
'Whilst my yearly travel to Italy from my hometown of Hobart in Australia is halted due to the pandemic I have been increasingly aware of other more subtle forms of travel. In particular, how sound itself travels has become an important aspect of my research with more sound files being sent across the globe and conversations with other artists via zoom and mobile phone replacing the face to face communication I have been used to. 

Sound travels at 1225kms an hour but ever since radio broadcasting was developed we can hear things from anywhere in the world instantly. Sound can ,in a way ,also time-travel - I can play recordings from the past and re-live the experience of being there. 

With these ideas in mind I wrote (the work  using a live stream audio stream from Venice that was mixed with a live local recording 13.5 hours (the time the sound would have taken to travel to Hobart) after it was broadcast. This combined audio recording of Venice and Hobart formed the raw material which was manipulated and arranged to evoke some of the many sensations of physical travel - movement, wonder, fear, enchantment, loneliness and adventure. 

Unedited field recordings from my archives are introduced at the 4 minute mark - one of the Grande Canal sent to me in 2019 and one of the main highway in my hometown which I sent to a colleague in Italy in 2020. These recordings capture the main routes of travel in their respective cities and bridge the past with the present creating a sound collage that travels through time.

In keeping with the theme of how sound travels the entire piece was written and mixed in 13.5hours, echoing the time it would take for sound to travel between Hobart and Venice.'

Viaggio di andata

This is another one that's been under development for a while. Kind of a weird fun vibe to it I thought.

Cast of Characters:
mistermark-- @user-432503709 --Mark-- horns and shakers
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– guitar, production, and mix
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—organ and piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, vocals, composition, and mix
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– guitar 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four-string fretless bass 

This song was written by Ken and a dearly departed friend and former bandmate named Chris Bennett about the latter's divorce that he was going through at the time when their band was also breaking up. Ken had a good demo of the two of them fleshing it out, which the Eclectic Collective used as a template for the song. Josh was first to add his unique slide bass line to the song. Next up was Tez, who added the fiery solo you hear at the end. Stephen came in not too long after with the rhythm guitar, complete with the intricate fills you hear throughout. Around the same time, Mark added some really innovative, genre-bending horns and shakers to it. Ken then completed the song with his stellar vocals. 

  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, so Ken turned it over to Stephen for an objective mix, although Ken was still heavily involved in the process, too. This is the first time Ken has sung lead for an EC song, and we were all very impressed with his skills on this one. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.


Original lyrics by Chris Bennett:

I once believed in happy ever after
Now I’m convinced by tears instead of laughter
There’s not much good inside that’s left to do the things for my survival

If I relied on you to make it better
I’d die a 1000 times, before we get together
All that is bad inside will rise back to the top
With your arrival

Burn down the doorway
Run down the hall
Scream out my name
But I may never hear you, never hear you
Drive down the highway
Until you’re gone
I may never hear you call

I still believe that someone’s always watching
Each time I turn around, I never hear them talking
All that is bad inside will never fade away with your arrival

Burn down the doorway
Run down the hall
Scream out my name, but I may never hear you
Never hear you
Drive down the highway
Until you’re gone
I may never hear you call

Na Na Na  Na Na Na
Na na na

Lyrics:

My beloved children this song is for you
I just want to give a bit of my view
On what I have thought on
Lately, when I think of you..

I promised to be a role model for you
But I made mistakes
I stumbled on my way
Although I tried my best for you..

Sometimes it sure was hard to see
when I made difficult choices
which you thought was wrong
And sometimes I didn't seem strong..

Sometimes we argued and disagreed
I didn't always understand
That you could get tired
Of living with me
And my weak memory..

I could get mad for no reason at all
It wasn't fair
I was just tired
But you was never to blame..

My beloved children this song is for you
I love you so much
I am so proud
For what you have become
My beloved daughters and sons
