Low lights, tables in front of the bar and dancers in front of the band :)

This is a track I uploaded a while back and somehow made it private by accident.  This is more of a melancholy bit of upbeat.  Like grasping on to something great at a heavy down time. It's hard to explain how this particular track comes across, but I truly hope you enjoy it!

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four string Fender Precision bass

This song started as a rough recorded by Tez on his acoustic and electric guitars. He also wrote the lyrics right off the bat, and introduced them to the rest of The Eclectic Collective by singing them as a rough, too. His vision for this was to create a song that sounded like it could've been recorded at Headly Grange. He also wanted it to feature instruments that wouldn't sound out of entirely out of place in Feudal Age Britain (between 1000-1600 C.E.) to carry the spirit of his lyrics.

  Tez always writes songs that are fun to learn and have cool changes, so the we all jumped in with both feet. Ken was first up with his Bonham like big, bad beat. To that, Josh added his P-bass, which he used a plectrum on, something he rarely does, trying to sound like JPJ to match his Ken's energy. JJ came along next, adding his colorful mix of raucous organ, time period relevant Celtic flute, and outro bagpipes. He did the entire outro, in fact, including the "off with her head," line, too. 

  Once the music was all laid down, Tez tapped Mark to sing the humorous lyrics. Mark came through with flying colors on the vocal performance, as always, too. Mark also added the textural, boingy-sounding jaw harp in the chorus sections.

  Now that it was all in the can, Two of our master producers Tez and Mark mixed it, then asked the third, Stephen, to do the final mastering. It should be noted, too, that Mark also contributed significantly to the production, too, with his masterful editing skills.

  This was a really fun tune to put together, as we always have fun working on Tez's seeds. He is telling the tale of lust between two Feudal era peasants. Of course, it's rife with ribaldry, being as Tez is British. We hope you enjoy listening to this a much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Llanpsych:
Verse 1
Working in the fields
All summer long
Glowing like the sun
Oh so fit and strong 
Feudal Woman
I like the way you move
Feudal Woman
I want to plough your groove
Verse 2
Loving in the dusk
Lying in the hay
Drinking hot cider
Till the end of the day 
Feudal Woman
I like the way you move
Feudal Woman
I want to plough your groove

Forgotten Moments

Doubt nearly won and I almost deleted this...


You know... I know I'm overly emotional in this first take..

The Zen version is here:
Listen to 🌍 Good Pharoahs by The Beautiful Dark on #SoundCloud

 But man I felt it.. It might seem strange but it's really nice feeling shit like that through music. That's the therapy... You can go to a shrink and cry but I choose to be ok and come to terms with things through music and for me it's amazing. Because that stands to dissolve the taboo and poison that is mental health in society in the future... I have no problem projecting that vulnerability a little bit because it's just normal. When we treat an unmended mind like a broken arm... We'll all be grand 

It doesn't matter how we find our own peace of mind. Once it doesn't hurt someone else... Find it

In this moment for me I'm genuinely emotional about that connection. I don't get it yet... What they're connecting to fully but sure it's still really feels good. That's the mission man so ...

Good Pharoahs (Demo)

The earth shatters
and drags you down
Nowhere an escape
is to be found
Memories fade and jumble
Crossroads crack and crumble

I am here
if you’re asking
I am here
I am now
Walk away or turn around
But you must know
I am here

Your shame burns through
and scars your mind
All the good things
get left behind
Memories fade and jumble
Crossroads crack and crumble

I am here
if you’re asking
I am here
I am now
Walk away or turn around
But you must know
I am here

I might not be the rainbow
At the end of the storm
But I could be the sunlight
That keeps you warm

I Am Here

Grooving at the Holiday Inn

"Le Normal est Anormal” is not just a song, it’s a quiet manifesto. With her sharp tone and playful phrasing, Anissa Boualem explores the absurd pressure to conform. Half ironic, half intimate, the track navigates the grey area between social codes and personal truth. Set to a lo-fi acoustic beat, it’s a poetic slap with a smile and a whisper that echoes: et toi ? tu trouves ça… normal ?

Lyrics:

Le Normal Anormal
Tu te rappelles ? Tu m'avais dit : Anissa, t’es anormale. 
Je t'avais répondu : oui, et c’est mieux qu’être normale. 
Non ? Pourquoi voudrais-tu que tout soit normal ? 
Si tout était normal, y'aurait ni normal ni anormal.

Et d'ailleurs, ce qui est normal pour toi ou eux, 
Peut être anormal pour d'autres, n'est-ce pas ? 
Tu me veux normale ? Tu me veux comme tout le monde ? 
Mais pourquoi ? Et c'est quoi, normal ? 
C’est ce que tu penses normal ?

(et toi !)

Sache que pour une anormale, le normal est anormal. 
Et si toi tu te crois normal, alors ça, c’est anormal. 
Toi le mâle, un jour tu m’as fait mal et c’était normal ? 
Mais prétendre être normal, c’est ça, ce qui est anormal.
Je ne suis pas normale, je suis mieux : je suis artiste. 
Et tu te trompes grave si tu crois que je suis triste. 
Moi j’déteste le “normal”, et toi, normalement, tu me dé… 
Teste ? Teste-toi, normalement, au lieu d’tester des idées.
Ils veulent du normal, du plat, du carré, du gris. 
Mais l’humain “normal” est un animal incompris. 
C’qu’ils appellent normal, c’est souvent du banal. 
L’art, pour l’artiste, c’est normal, mais lui doit rester anormal.

Normal… Anormal… ces mots qui varient selon le tic… 
…tac. Des cages invisibles où tout l’monde s’applique. 
Mais si être soi, c’est sortir du cadre Normal, 
Alors là, je suis très heureuse d’être très anormale.

(mais toi !)

Sache que pour une anormale, le normal est anormal.
Et si toi tu te crois normal, alors ça, c’est anormal.
Toi le mâle, un jour tu m’as fait du mal et c’était normal ?
Mais c’qui est anormal, c’est d’vivre sans être loyal…

À soi-même. 
C’est ça, le plus triste dans l’histoire, c'est que tu trouves ça... 
Normal. 

Je ne suis pas normale. 
Je suis Anormale. 
Et c’est tout à fait normal.
