Onwards My Heart Sings

Bass, drums, vocal & mix : Little Man Project

Ode To Billie Joe W/ PdB Orchestra

This is my original song about a story that is told in Liverpool and I wanted to create my own version as I feel it represents many of the people in Liverpool

I am Liverpool - Scouser Tommy

"Alchemical [Crisis]" is a gripping progressive rock odyssey that delves into the chilling reality of nuclear brinkmanship. Featuring powerful excerpts from John F. Kennedy's historic speeches during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the song captures the tension and urgency of those perilous days. With its haunting melodies and relentless rhythms, the track immerses listeners in the gravity of nuclear threat. Through intense guitar solos and thunderous drums, "Alchemical [Crisis]" explores the profound implications of humanity’s destructive capabilities, compelling us to reflect on the high stakes of our most formidable inventions.

Bill and I invite you to listen to the final result of our collaboration which lasted a week and was a great pleasure for both of us! 😎😊
Bill as a very creative musician and competent producer added his magical synth sounds to my guitar part and bass line! He then took care of the production and mixing of the song. He did the time-consuming work to achieve this unique and interesting sound of the song. That's how this song came to be - once again, we crossed the Atlantic distance. 🌞
This is our third song together after "Good Days" and "Clouds" with Nathaniel Ehrnman. In the former Bill was the producer, in the latter he was the producer and musician. Enjoy listening to it !!! 😎🎸

I dedicate this song to my wife, Monika ! 🍀

Between Us (w/Bill Brooks)

2024 Remix and Remaster version to bring it up to the standard of the later album tracks for full album release in 2024.

This track is dedicated to the memory of Chris A and the time that was 'Elidor'. "I hope you are flying somewhere with that big grin on your face"

This track was very much a collision of ideas. I wanted to follow on from The North Shore and actually take the listener into the air to experience the feeling and freedom of flying like a bird. Additionally the track title "Flight of Fancy" was the title of an original instrumental played by a band I was in in the early 80's. The keyboard player in that band is sadly no longer with us, so I decided to try and reinvent the spirit of that time as a musical tribute to Chris.

Enjoy your Flight of Fancy :-)

This track is now part of "The Pilgrims Way Project" exploring the history and natural world of Lindisfarne.

Background

This track seemed to naturally evolve into three discrete sections with a different musical flavour to each part.

(i) Sunrise (0:00 - 0:58)
As the title suggests, it is my musical imagining of sunrise on the beach with all the grandeur of a new day dawning. A big orchestral sound and timpani seemed the way to go.

(ii) The Shoreline At Dawn (0:59 - 2:28)
Part Two has a much more muted sound as nature begins to stir with the dawn and musically this part acts as a linking section between parts one and three.

(iii) Into The Air (2:29 - 6:42)
Finally we are into the air and I wanted to give a feeling of flying by the use of rising chords sequences and a string ostinato (a recurring rhythmic or melodic pattern). I also wanted to give a nod to the original Flight of Fancy so it has a variation of the main guitar riff I played back in the early 80's, some interwoven guitar and keyboard parts and harmony with underlying jazzy drum and bass parts.

Cast of Characters:

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass
Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel  --MD—effected vocals
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, trippy synth
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar, production, mix, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and seed idea 
Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song began about half a year ago, as part of a three song set that Ken started with some really cool beats. Josh was first to the trough for here, laying in his fretless bass groove to complete the foundation and give it some tonal direction. Stephen came next and laid in the really trippy textural guitar that you hear throughout. JJ was next with his serious, no joke organ playing, which sets the mood for the whole thing. Last, but not least, Tez joined by adding some really cool accent guitar throughout.
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, so we tapped Stephen to do the honors on this.
  We had originally made this and the other two song with the intention of having The Mysterious Decibel and his friend Modes About Me sing on them. However, life got in the way, so we sat on them. Finally, MD let us know that he wasn't able to complete the project with us, much to everyone's, including his, disappointment. However, MD did lay down a rough vocal demo for us, which Stephen very ably processed to sound almost like another instrument in there. So, we're releasing this song as a tribute to them both, with gratitude, especially to MD for all the great work he's put in with us. If you're not familiar with either of them, do yourself a favor and check them out. Modes about me is at  @modesaboutme and the link to The Mysterious Decibel can be found in the link in the cast of characters above. 
  This is an example of what it sounds like when the whole band composes a song together. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
