LET YOUR EARS BREAK FREE

It's need-to-tell-this-to-my-therapist music Thursday! Please welcome our new imaginary combo "The Lamineers":

Sergio Párraga: Congas, Campana y Güiro
Jeff Roberts: Electrified Bass
me: what's left

Thank you a million Jeff and Sergio for having joined me with this ride. The road to get there was rather stony and winding --- some conversation excerpts: "I chose to enter the labyrinth of twisted meter and rubato alleys" --- "shall we call this one quits?" --- "man that is one idiosyncratic piece" --- "I take it as an adventure" --- "get that suckah out there!!!!!!!!!!"

There's no voices in my head, but they must be right
Danger's everywhere
Everything is fine, but you need to keep in mind, you really need to keep in mind
Little white round enemies

Alligator's coming

Come on, let's hide in the swamp
Nobody can see us, we're hidden, just shh
Kwui

Alligator's chasing its own tail
How did we get here?
Nobody can remember, but it was a perfect plan
OK there's a way out, but we need to find a bar

Left? Right? Straight?
Wrong direction, wait!
Light, streft, reight!

Come my brave soldier, shelter is near
We're out of provisions, but we still have a beer

Alligator's coming
Alligator's
Alligator's coming

Little white round enemies, mean mean calamities
Little white round enemies, leave me my identities
Alligator's coming

Soon we're there, just six bars more to visit
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Yahoo
Alligator's coming

Little White Round Enemies ft. Sergio Párraga and Jeff Roberts

the ocean...the beach...the strange quality in the air

Once I wrote a description here !!!

Ok let's say I started adding layers to the great music https://soundcloud.com/progrockdan1 sent to me.

Letra (translated lyrics below)

Se arrastró bajo los muros,
llorando.
Se filtró por las ranuras,
buscándome.
Y miró entre las fisuras,
deseando:
mucho claro, nada oscuro,
llamándome…
 
Mas el centinela mágico
de quijadas relucientes,
descarnado por los dientes
de mil y un gusanos cárnicos,
por la acción más degenérica
de venenos de odio y muerte,
este ser, cerebro inerte,
la detuvo, niña histérica…
 
Pero huyó,
vio sentada su promesa de llamarme.
Y escapó,
Vio prendido su deseo de amarme.
Sensación
de saber que era la presa, fuego y carne,
y en la intensa luz de vida vino a hallarme;
y me encontró.
-------------------------------------------
She crawled under the walls,
crying.
She filtered through the grooves,
searching for me.
And she looked inside the fissures,
wishing:
much clarity, no darkness,
calling me…

But the magic sentry
of shining jawbones,
eaten to the bone by the teeth
of thousand and one meat worms,
For the most degenerated action
of poisons of hatred and death,
this being, inert brain,
detained her, hysterical girl …

But she fled,
found assured her promise of calling me.
And she escaped,
found on fire her willing to love me.
Sensation
of knowing that she was the prey, fire and flesh,
and in the intense light of life she came to find me;
and she did.

Ella huyó - She fled (with ProgRockDan1)

@phil-mcwalter approached me to ask if I’d like to do my own version of his song, https://soundcloud.com/phil-mcwalter/i-can-see-all-of-you-1 . He was keen that I used my own words, although I explained that I wouldn’t be able to match, let alone improve on what he had done. I persevered and once I found the mood I wanted to occupy, the words came quickly. Phil’s original version, if my interpretation is correct, appears to be from the perspective of an all-seeing/omnipotent being. Whereas the anxiety and tension I felt in the music led me to the perspective of someone who is all-seeing, via our various modern communications and information systems, yet simultaneously wholly powerless to change anything and gradually becomes insane. The beauty of writing something like this is that it doesn’t necessarily have to represent your own personal ideas and beliefs. I’m a little bit cynical in real life but nothing like this (honestly)… Feel free to take what you want from my diatribe, but only with a pinch of salt.

Hugely indebted and honoured to get to work with Phil on this. A very liberating experience that let me think outside of the box. Cheers Phil.

Thanks for listening ;-)

I can see all wonder ,  that nature displays, 
From a newborn’s fingertip,  
To forests ablaze.
  I was simply spellbound , 
To the point of disbelief , 
Overwhelmed and awed, 
As if by grief . 
We unhappy few who have ,
 Such luxury ,
 Still blindly plunder ,
 Its treasury.

I was spellbound,
I’m losing my mind,    
Simply spellbound,  spellbound, spellbound,
  I’m losing my mind , 
Simply spellbound,  spellbound… Hellbound

I really can’t help but be,   
Quite so cynical,  
Maybe I’m just kind of,
 Hypercritical . 
The fool or the philistine, 
Who is to blame?  
Leisure and culture , 
They’re just not the same . 
Work to live, live to shop,
  Everything’s retail.  
Even your integrity,  
It’s all up for sale . 
Whatever you believe in, 
  Believe in yourself.
  I can’t keep everything   Inside my mind,  
Something’s gotta give ,
 It’s not how we’re designed.

I can’t keep everything,   
Inside my mind,  
Wade through false symbols , 
Drown in true signs.
  Information overload,  
Got nothing to say.  
Data Protection,  
This area’s grey.
  Intellectual copyright,  
We all assume,
  Will see us alright,  
From tome to tomb.

I was spellbound, 
   I’m losing my mind,    
Simply spellbound,  spellbound, spellbound,
  I’m losing my mind, 
Simply spellbound,  spellbound, Hellbound.

I can see all of you,
  Inside my head.  
Y’all know who you are,  
The quick and the dead . 
Soundbite, whatever you like,
  It’s all watered down.
  Well, I can take it straight,
  Coz I’m a big boy now.
  Lifestyle or a real life?  
Which will it be?
  For now, it’s still your life,  
Take it from me.  
Or maybe not,  
Coz I’ve lost the plot.
  I can see all of you,   
Inside my head.  
The ones that look shiny,  
The ones that look dead.

I can see all of you,  
Spellbound ,
 I can see all of you,
  Simply spellbound,
  I can see all of you,  
Spellbound,  
I can see all of you,  
Hellbound

You started Laughing - Supertramp - Rick Davies -1975

When you're in heaven what you gonna do?
You're gonna sit around a cloud and say
"Hey what a lovely view"

Is there a reason why you're like you are?
Is there a reason you'll be leaving?
Is my love out of season?
I wouldn't mind but to me that is treason

You started laughing
When I held you in my arms
You started leaving
When I told you of my charms

I was in love with you
And then you said we're through
And then I said boo hoo

Was my tie not on straight?
Was it something I ate?

You Started Laughing

I love the KSB sound. This instrumental inspired me to make the lyrics and songline, and i "gave it a bit of a new wave techno"-vibe.

I'm an outlaw- Lyrics

Maybe it’s true I’m wild and hard to control
And maybe it’s because
I have an untamable soul
I’m always on the run
I stay out of the sun, out of the sun, out out
Out of the light, out out
I’m an outlaw

I have to hide
An Outlaw
Yes Sir, Yes Mam,
That’s what I am
I am an outlaw

I’m under a ban
I’m under restriction
The law no longer offers me protection

Banned, barred, prohibitted, forbidden, Fugitive, Veto, embargo, outcast

Outlaw (KillaSoundBoy-Saskia)

Cast of Characters:
Didier Burli-- @didierburli — acoustic guitar, main vocals, composition
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez– Fender Stratocaster electric guitar, mix, and production
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Roland Phantom organ, Roland piano, Paul Reed Smith cutom SE electric guiar, Warwick four string fretless bass, vocal harmonies
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson custom T model electric guitar

This song began with Didier coming up with it on his acoustic guitar. However, when he first sent it to Josh, he had played electric guitar, bass, keys, and drums on it, because he is a very talented multi-intrumentalist. This song passes the stool test, though, which is the question of whether it sounds good with someone just sitting on a stool with a guitar, playing and singing it. So, when we asked him to give us a version that we could add to, it was already a great song that he sent us with just him singing over his acoustic guitar. 
  Tez was the first one up on this one, adding the fiery fills throughout, as well as the co-solo at the end. Ken entered the fray next, adding his rock solid, dynamic drums. Once the drums were down giving him something to play against, Josh added his fretless bass to the song. Being very excited about this one, he also added piano, organ, and eventually the lead guitar solo at the end. He also went in and added all the vocal harmonies throughout. Stephen then brought up the rear with some really cool textural guitar throughout. 
  Once we had it in the bag, we asked Tez to produce and mix it for us, which he did in his usual expert fashion. 
  This is our first song with Didier, but we hope it's just the beginning of his new inclusion into the Eclectic Collective family. He has a lot of great music on his page, which is worth checking out, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by Didier Burli:
I wish I could stay awake but I need to sleep
Thunder is on it's way but I don't hear it
I don't fear the ghouls, and I don't fear the creeps
And with this dancing zombie, I don't know what to do with it
And I just get too much information....
in the middle of the night, when everything is silent....

(chorus) And the noise rises up
From all those things, that mankind does, that makes you want throw up

(chorus) And the noise rises up
From all those things, that mankind does that makes you want dream of

(chorus) And the noise rises up
From all those things that makes you scared of

(chorus) And the noise rises up
From all those things that mankind lost

And I just get too much information....
in the middle of the night, when everything is silent....

The Noise Rises Up (Eclectic Collective with Didier Burli)

Sunny Day

■概要(overview)
自分の中の夏をイメージしました。
It was inspired by the summer inside me.

■歌詞
過ごした夏の数
まどろみの岸辺で
さざ波の記憶を
たどっているような気分
それは潮の綾

太陽を吸い込んだ
波の揺らめきが
瞼の裏で
揺れているずっと
寄せて返す幻

誰かが名前を呼んでいて
僕は浮かんでいるだけなのさ
時間が海に溶けはじめたころに
夏の風が冷たく感じて岸に向かった


モノクロームの夏
音の無い岸辺で
光の名残に
触れていたいような気分
夜が近い

波間に溶けていった
夏の幻が
瞼の裏で
僕を呼んでいる
その音で目を覚ます

誰かが波間に石を投げて  
小さな輪が広がっていった  
光と影をまといながら  
ちゃぷ　という音が胸に残った

いつまでもここにいたいな
浮かんでいたいよな
名前も忘れてしまったような
誰かに会いたいような

■Lyrics(google translate)
The number of summers I've spent
On the shore of my slumber
I feel like I'm tracing the memories of the ripples
It's the tides
The swaying of the waves that absorbed the sun
Swaying behind my eyelids
An illusion that keeps on ebbing and flowing
Someone is calling my name
I'm just floating
When time started to melt into the sea
The summer wind felt cold so I headed for the shore
Monochrome summer
On the silent shore
I feel like I want to touch the vestiges of light
Night is approaching
The illusion of summer that melted into the waves
I'm calling to me behind my eyelids
That sound wakes me up
Someone threw a stone into the waves
A small circle spread
Clad in light and shadow
The sound of splashing remained in my heart
I want to stay here forever
I want to float
I feel like I've forgotten my name
I want to meet someone

Hi Everyone!
This is a simple and cheerful song for our dog named Waldek who is a fan of music and especially country music! 🍀

Of course, I also love country vibe (especially Johnny Cash !!!) and use this musical heritage, but here I certainly don’t play in this style. 
Fortunately, Waldek liked this song! 🔆

Hope you enjoy the vibe! 
Thanks a lot for listening and support!

Walking with my Dog

The phrase "he walks around with a conscious through greed" is an interesting juxtaposition of terms. It suggests someone who is aware of their greedy actions but continues to pursue them, implying a deliberate choice rather than an unconscious compulsion. This could highlight a conflict between a person's moral compass and their desire for more.

The Weight of Gold

This is a revamp of a song i released a few years ago. I have added a few extra pieces to enhance the song.  It seems more relevant today than ever before. The world is full of Narcissist's this is for them and please ...do sing  along...I suppose the message in the song is very simple ..
When everything in your life is falling apart, its never your fault , its always someone else's because you are so much smarter, funnier, better that everybody else, they just cant see it. ha ha ha 
" It's always someone else's Fault " 
Written, recorded and produced by 
John Mc Farlane

The Narcissist's Anthem

(Don't follow me here, best on my main page ;)

Dear listener, Feel free to leave comments and I'll try to reply.

I've been making music for around 16 years now but because of the wonderfully generous community that is SC, I have learned so much in a short time. I look forward to learning even more by collaborating. 
I suppose my strengths are in lyric-writing and singing. I feel fortunate to have been able to work with some stunning compositions by some very talented SCers.

My very best to you, Mark
