really nice track i love the shimmering noise that sounds like water on a shell beach :)

“Each that we lose takes part of us; 
A crescent still abides, 
Which like the moon, some turbid night, 
Is summoned by the tides.”

- Emily Dickinson

This song began as Carl's tribute poem to our drummer, Ken. Carl came up with the chord progression and started a project, to which he invited the rest of us. This is the third song Eclectic Collective has done that is a tribute by Carl to one of our members.  We couldn't feel more honored than to be the subjects of his wild and boundless creativity.
  Fittingly, Ken was first in line to add his magnificent drums. Once we had drums, Josh had something to work with to add his bass, which he did shortly after the drums were up. Mark paid the project a visit next, helping out with a bit of production editing, and dropping in a mad percussion solo using his VST timbale drums.l.Stephen jumped in soon after, adding the melodic electric guitar riffs that appear throughout. Not to be outdone, JJ added some sonically thickening electric piano, as well as the throwback psychedelic synth that pops up towards the end. Finally, Tez came along and added the electrifying solo that appears about a third of the way in, as well as the one at the end. 
  Once the recording was finished, we turned it over to Stephen to mix in his always professional manner. 
  This song is all about our very talented teammate and brother, Ken, and it is well deserved, too. As mentioned, this is the third song from Carl about one of us. It's hard to describe the feeling of having someone who you respect take the time and energy to think about you in such a positive way as to produce a song about you. Then to have all your buddies join in to amplify it to a solid song is just mind-blowing. We are all very grateful to Carl for not only sharing his music with us, but for his thoughtful consideration of each of us as subjects. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by The Perfect Dark:
Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture

Rhythmic mountain maestro
Each day, graft, working hard
So kids can eat
Bruised back sees very best of yard

Still, beats get born of evenings
Deep love finds joules to jam
May generation X soothe meaning
Let's teach the younger pussies what we can

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture
Sticks in hand
Cymbals a floating
Snare and bass backbone gland
Tom'ed Ringo Star man keep quoting
Keep life steady paced by hand

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

From the album “Newer Unknown Breeds”

https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/newer-unknown-breeds-expanded-edition

Newer Unknown Breeds was at the time a further development in sound for Blink Twice. The album expanded on the techno and electro genre much more than Blink Twice's debut "Other Locations". There was an increase usage of sampling on this collection of material, often with looped effects incorporated to add further density. With the blend of tribal and industrial elements remaining, it serves as an adventurous concoction of experimental rhythmic and darker ambient electronic music.

The underlying theme of "Newer Unknown Breeds" was the observance of mutations (both deliberate and natural) within organisms. Evolutionary results of obscure creatures and their advancement and place in the biological field.

While waiting for the next tracks, which are a long time coming, two field recordings made in Vietnam with some very special animals!...
I recorded these incredible bird songs very quickly in the mangroves of Tra Su, in the Mekong Delta. Unfortunately, there is background noise on the tape, and I was only able to recover 1 min 20 of listenable sound. But the recording conditions were very complicated, especially because of the dozens of mosquitoes biting me while I was struggling with my recorder! I have no idea what these birds are, if anyone recognizes their song, please share in the comments!

En attendant les nouveaux morceaux, qui se font attendre, deux nouveaux enregistrements de terrain réalisés au Vietnam avec quelques animaux très spéciaux !...
J'ai enregistré ces incroyables chants d'oiseaux très rapidement dans les mangroves de Tra Su, dans le delta du Mékong. Malheureusement, il y a des bruits parasites sur la bande, et je n'ai pu récupérer que 1 min 20 de son écoutable. Mais les conditions d'enregistrement étaient très compliquées, notamment à cause des dizaines de moustiques qui me piquaient pendant que je me débattais avec mon enregistreur ! Je n'ai aucune idée de ce que sont ces oiseaux, si quelqu'un reconnaît leur chant, n'hésitez pas à partager dans les commentaires !
