Ode to Gabriela Mistral (Live)

This song was inspired by a holiday on the coast. It starts in the style of ambient music and slowly turns into a classic piece of electronic music, inspired by the Berlin School

The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — acoustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, and compostion
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson custom T electric guitar, production, mix, and mastering
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, and Roland organ
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaster electric guitrar, mix, and production
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – triangle, and ancillary vocals

This song began when Carl, who is always making connections on the Cloud, was inspired to write a song about our bandmate, Mark. As you can tell from his lyrics, Carl shares our appreciation and respect for our resident Canadian singer and multi instrumentalist. So, when he had the chords worked out on his acoustic guitar, and a great vocal track, he recorded them and started a project, to which the rest of Eclectic Collective were invited.
  First up to bat was Ken, laying in his always clever, essential beat for the rest of us to work with. Stephen was the next person to lay down a track, which was his essential, but subtle electric rhythm track. Later, after it was almost done, he also added a fiery solo in the firt part of the ending section. Josh came along right after Stephen, laying down his signature fretless bass. He also added the organ shortly after, as well. Tez entered the fray next, adding the lightning, Gilmore-esque final solo in the end section. 
  We considered what to do with this song for a minute, too. The thought was whether to present it to Mark as a gift, or to include him in the mix. We decided to go with the latter, and he added the awesome vocalizations towards the end, as well as some cool triangle.
  Once we had it in the bag, we turned it over to Stephen for the production, mix, and mastering, which he always does in a very pro manner.
  This is our second of hopefully many songs with Carl. If you have good music on your page, there's a good chance that he'll hit you up to collaborate. Like the moon, he's everywhere, and he's a damn fine collaborator, too. We hope you enjoy hearing this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Carl also wanted to share this message about Mark, as well.
  "This song is written for our Canadian friend Mark. Mark is a pivotal member of the Eclectic Collective who as a band and equally Mark as an individual I'm discovering are phenomenal to work with. I was particularly struck how multiple generations of Mark's family enjoy music and creating together. Thanks for your music man. You really do show a unique approach and I look forward to making more really enjoyable songs like this one with you buddy. In my head lyrically Mark is whoever you focus the love on. Rock and Real!" ----TBD

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:
You are the Mark
Mister Lark
Pedigree Bark
Stunning musical stark
Meet Mistermark

From Wondr to Bossa
All from I' Spy
Projecting your best
Proud human melody cry

May 2019
Maybe some fear became esteem
Soft bands in garage channel a way
Internal dreams in sound found light this day

So Dad was a seed
Kudos big man
You do good breed
In music we learn with proper concern
I think now you found Josh the EP

So onto Collective
You expand their perspective
With you and your music
Now Earth gets more fuses
Because of your music
It's a better blue ball
I know I certainly love hearing Marks call

We pressed the remote
We having those jams
Let's get it on and get more brain tan
We singing to clan
Wham bam thank you man

Miss No Mark

Boy, it's sure weird posting a song that was written for yourself! These gents (including our buddies J.J. & Chris who didn't make it onto this track, but equally deserving of mention) are a fine group of fellers who all come from good families and such, but over time have developed ways about them that just ain't right. Lol, I kid, but they are gems to a man, and I'm surprised, confused, honoured to have them pick on me with their weapon of choice, music. Special thanks to Carl for his boundless generosity and music energy, and for just being Carl in everything he does. 
Thanks boys!!!

Miss No Mark-The Beautiful Dark/Eclectic Collective

This track is the second track from my ep CHEMICAL. 120 BPM. 6m6s. The intro is long, but bear with it. It leads into a terrifyingly flashy and groovy tune. This was heavily influenced by Led Zeppelin and punk bands such as Primal Scream. CHEMICAL Link in Bio!

THERE IS LOVE

I just want to say I'm beyond honored to be the subject of such adoration from my musical family here. Carl really knows how to make a brother feel special, and he did it for me this time, with the help of some of our EC extended family. Here's Carl's write up. 
"Mr Bringer-er Together-er is Josh. You may also know him as artist Entheogenic Psychnought, or the spine of Eclectic Collective. We all came across Josh in our own lucky ways, but he really sets a high bar for spreading constructive musical love and encouragement on SoundCloud. This song started out as a comment. I (Carl/TBD) went to call Josh Mr Bringer-er Together-er and my phone auto corrected it. the next morning K2 swooped in and said what I wanted so I used that as a trigger for the song.
So, I had a rough arrangement. We then invited a few artists, except Josh, to paint it for him. Scratch Kelly, aka Sarah, beamed through some amazing vocals. Not long behind Joe Stroffolino painted in some brilliant backing vox. Then Scotty (One Man Verity Show) chimed in with some amazing guitar, trippy backing vocals, and the super artwork you get to enjoy. Mark brushed in a triangle and some vox, and then Ken added those trusty drums. Tez then strutted in and added some super lead guitar, and not far behind him was Stephen with some epic rhythm guitar that showed the way for the song from that point of view showing a much better space to all the other instruments than the original demo guitar. That was a lovely lesson on less is more...

The song was now ready to give to the main man for him to paint, and he chose his trusty bass to put some strawberries on his own musical cake.

I now stared at 37 tracks and went... Hmmm Stephen, Help! Stephen mixed and mastered it to its crisp current form, and it was a very difficult mix. He basically had to merge 3 projects to one and really aced the challenging mix and master like the true shaman he is. We hope you enjoy the song that brought us together again. May it give us more togetherness like Josh so wonderfully demonstrates everyday

You da brother man Josh 🤘🏽"

Lyrics

Texte Français et Google traduction

Le passé chante et se fait voir,
On ne s’invente pas une histoire.
C’était hier, plus à se dire,
Mais rien à faire pour  se maudire.

Tous ces défauts accumulés,
Se montrent trop à regarder,
Et chaque instant est une blessure
Dans le présent qui monte un mur.

De tout on parle et on s’explique,
Les verbes calmes s’en vont bien vite,
Pour laisser place à chaque fois,
A la menace du désarroi.

On a beau faire tout ce qu’on peut,
Reste la misère dans nos aveux,
Troubles questions pour des réponses,
Un clou de plomb que l’on enfonce.

Sera-t-on  jamais heureux,
C’est de la peur entre nous deux ?
Des doutes et peines qui s’installent
Pour nous refaire un peu plus mal.

On se la tend cette douce main,
Dans les moments de « mieux demain »,
Mais sans le voir tous nos reproches,
Repeignent en noir la moindre approche.

Ce mal de vivre, déjà donné,
Aux bateaux ivres les fait couler.
Un beau rivage que l’on dessine
Est loin au large quand on se mine.

Si tous les troubles qui nous menacent,
Faisaient voir double l’amour en face,
Sans inquiétude et pour raison,
Qu’une certitude n’a pas de nom.

Sera-t-on  jamais heureux,
C’est de l’amour entre nous deux ?
Des doutes et peines qui s’installent
Pour nous refaire un peu plus mal.

Sera-t-on  jamais heureux,
C’est de l’amour entre nous deux ?
Des doutes et peines qui s’installent
Pour nous refaire un peu plus mal.

WILL YOU NEVER HAPPY?

The past sings and shows,
We do not invent a story.
It was yesterday, more to say to himself,
But nothing to do to curse.

All these accumulated faults,
Are too much to watch,
And every moment is an injury
In the present that climbs a wall.

Everything we talk about and we explain,
The calm verbs go away quickly,
To leave room each time,
At the threat of confusion.

We can do everything we can,
Remain misery in our confession,
Troubles questions for answers,
A nail of lead that one sinks.

Will we ever be happy,
Is it fear between us?
Doubts and sorrows that settle
To make us a little worse.

We hold out this sweet hand,
In the moments of "better tomorrow",
But without seeing all our reproaches,
Repaint in black the slightest approach.

This pain of living, already given,
Drunken boats make them sink.
A beautiful shore that we draw
Is far off when one is mine.

If all the troubles that threaten us,
Show double love in front,
Without worry and for reason,
That a certainty has no name.

Will we ever be happy,
Is it love between us?
Doubts and sorrows that settle
To make us a little worse.

Will we ever be happy,
Is it love between us?
Doubts and sorrows that settle
To make us a little worse.

For each musical piece there is a story hidden inside. Enjoy this "Hidden Inside", played on the virtual version of The Giant. Until recently it was the biggest piano in the world but now it's creator, David Klavins, made even bigger Regina. I got the chance to play The Giant in real life and I hope to get a chance to play Regina this year!

The video story is edited by my husband, compiled using clips from VideoBlocks.
