I don't understand everything that's being said here, but it brought back a childhood memory from 1967: the Beatles single with the song 'I Am the Walrus'. One of the records that probably had the biggest impact on me. But it's surely irrelevant. Goo goo g'joob!

Extraordinary fascinating sound experience! Excellent quality work.. Awesome mix & recording production!

Villagers whispered that when El Chalambra appeared, time bent sideways—clocks stuttered, rivers reversed, and memories no longer obeyed their owners. His presence was both omen and invitation: to step beyond the known map, to risk dissolving in the kaleidoscope of his gaze, and perhaps never return the same.

El Chalambra

I finish a lot of my poems and say to myself... Carl you can't share that... That's the moment I transmute all that weak assed fear and say... Now I have to!

Fuck FEAR and be LOVE. Doing that we truly honour our feelings and they don't become oppressed. I would hazard a guess they become a physical bad energy for us when we oppress our true hearts feelings and possibly build up to become a detriment to our beings.

There is way too much real feeling being oppressed by our collective at the moment. Not mine thank you very much. There is too much at stake to not start feeling this world properly!

Here's a flashback from my past that's still in the present moment!
 
Somehow, I just Know you'll love this one! :-D

This was the first thing to come out of my opening improvisational set at 'The Light House Pub' on Saturna Island as I let my fingers do the talkin' on December 16th 2015. 😎 

 I was playing my Kawai ES7 Digital Stage Piano, and everything just flowed!

So... my friends and Listeners, here's a taste of what can emerge 'outta the Blue' when my Muse just wants to come out n play!  😉

This song began more than a year ago, when Josh created a song out of a looper beat with his four string fretless bass. It sat on the shelf until a few weeks ago, when he shared it with JJ, who was in creative mode one Saturday evening. Josh had actually forgotten that he'd added a bass line to it, and thought he was just passing on a looper beat for JJ to play with. 
  However, JJ heard it, and was so excited that added his magical electric piano part, making it sound like a real song, instead of just drums and a bass. Ken also heard some magic in here, because he came up with his own brilliant beat to replace the looper that was used in for the seed. Mark was next to throw in, adding the striking drum pattern breakdown, and the thrilling flute solo, as well. Tez came in shortly after, adding his thrilling guitar to the mix. After everyone had added their parts, Josh came back and added two guitar parts, the simple low end line, as well as the high strumed triads. At this stage, Mark did some editing, as it is in his skill set, and made it less dense and easier to listen to. 
  Now that the song was musically complete, out newest member, Carl, dropped the amazing vocals you hear, singing his original lyrics. After Carl was done sprinkling his magic in it, we needed an able producer to bring out the magic of the recordings. Good thing we have a trained producer to do the job in Stephen, who mixed and mastered it superbly, as always. 
  This is Eclectic Collective's first fore into the afrobeat genre, although a few of us are really big fans already, and Josh has a few other originals in this genre buried on his page, as well. As always, we all enjoyed the process of hearing this one come together. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:Juice our Jah
Chalice of chime
Shooting star
Great rhythm
There's blood in the brine

Suture Sun
Grand heaven high
'Some clan gone cruel
Needing collective eye

Eclectic host
Hoist our hale
Mused healing feast
Musical breeze as gale

Afro beat
Oh melody sweet
Beat afro
Show us where to go

“… 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

“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)
