I extracted only her vocals from the original recording, arranged, recorded, and reconstructed the track. 
The arrangement is quite different from the original, so please enjoy her original song from the link below.

’Camera’

If I could always remember
The world reflected in these eyes,
I feel like we’d meet again someday.

A mysterious feeling, a sudden intuition,
I can't quite explain it,
But maybe it's a signal
From my future self.

Finding dreams, giving birth to hope,
And then this sky
Grows vivid with color.

Hold a camera in your heart
And let’s capture this feeling forever.
The colors and shapes
That awaken my soul
Will someday turn into my reality.
If I meet that world again,
This time, I’ll be the subject, too.
Say cheese!

Why do good and bad things
Always coexist?
I’ll embrace them
As life’s essence for me.

A smiling face, a troubled face—
If I line them up side by side,
I realize I love them both.

Hold a camera in your heart
And let’s capture this feeling forever.
The colors and shapes
That awaken my soul
Will guide me when I lose my way.
I’ll look back at the photos I’ve saved.
The ones that make my heart race,
They’ll be my signal to move forward.

Though there are times of hardship,
We can focus on what we want to see.
The lens of our focus
Is ours to control.

Hold a camera in your heart
And let’s capture this feeling forever.
The colors and shapes—
They’re all allies of mine.
They’ll someday turn into my reality.
If I meet that world again,
This time, I’ll be the subject, too.
Say cheese!

Let’s keep filming with the camera of our hearts.

『カメラ』

この瞳に映る世界を
ずっと覚えていたなら
きっとまた会える
そんな気がする

摩訶不思議だピンときたこと
上手く言えないんだけど
未来の僕からの
合図かもしれない

夢を見つけて　希望が生まれて
そしてこの空は　鮮やかに
色付いてゆく

こころの中にcameraを持って
この気持ちを覚えていよう
色も形も
こころを刺激する
いつか僕のリアルに変わって
あの世界とまた　出会えたら
次は被写体に　僕もなって
ハイっ！ポーズ✌︎✌︎

なぜいい事とわるい事は
いつも存在するのかな？
僕へのエッセンスと
受け止めてみよう

笑ってる顔　悩んでる顔
ふたつ並べたら　どちらとも
大好きだな

こころの中にcameraを持って
この気持ちを覚えていよう
色も形も
こころを刺激する
もしも迷ってしまった時は
撮りためた写真　見返そう
こころがときめく　それが合図
行ってみよう

嫌なことも時にあるけど
見たいものだけ見れば良い
フォーカスは　自分で定められる

こころの中にcameraを持って
この気持ちを覚えていよう
色も形も
みんな味方にして
いつか僕のリアルに変わって
あの世界とまた　出会えたら
次は被写体に　僕もなって
ハイっ！ポーズ✌︎✌︎

こころのcameraを回していこう

  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 avant garde is dead. That is its triumph. Let it lie.” - Chris Cutler in “Not As We Choose: Music, Memory and Technology”. (Highly recommended!)

“… there is increasingly less call to exercise an already too rare generosity of aesthetic hospitality.” - Chris Cutler

" Music is one of the great Mysteries. It gives life. It is not a career, nor a business, nor a craft. It is a gift... and a great responsibility. Because one can never know where the creative spark comes from or why it exists, it must be treasured as a Mystery. For the most part I believe creativity chooses you, not the other way around." - John Zorn (excerpt from the liner notes to 'Magick')

“Listen as if you were being told a secret” - Federico Fellini

“Experimental and electronic music was once not-so-benignly tolerated at the margins of western art music, but it has over the last decade or so moved toward a central position as something of the soundtrack of our digital culture. Where it once was merely tolerated it is now more engaged and doesn’t have to apologize to anyone”.  - Douglas Kahn 

"Through technology, voices are amplified and silence is broken. Spaces are shared." – Laurie Anderson

"I frequently hear music in the heart of noise." - George Gershwin

"'Tis an ill wind that blows no minds." - 
Malaclypse the Younger in 'Principia Discordia'

“Let us cross a great modern capital with our ears more alert than our eyes and we will get enjoyment from distinguishing the eddying of water, air and gas in metal pipes, the grumbling noises that breathe and pulse with indisputable animility, the palpitation of waves, the coming and going of pistons, the howl of mechanical saws, the jolting of the tram on its rails, the cracking of whips, the flapping of curtains and flags. We enjoy creating mental orchestrations of crashing down of metal shop blinds, slamming doors, the hubbub and shuffle of crowds, the variety of din from the stations, railways, iron foundries, spinning mills, printing works, electric power stations and underground railways.” — Luigi Russolo in 'The Art of Noises' (L'arte dei Rumori)
