We live happy days. Our brains are constantly being shaken by new sounds, and sound images accelerate the blood circulation. Knowing music, and facing it with fear. Everything every day is a golden experience. By the way, does this song qualify as EDM? (This question is the very fear of music.)

№307 Golden Days (307)

Cast of characters:

Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – Takamine acoutic and Gibson Les Paul electric guitar, composition, lyrics, mix, and production
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – jaw harp, vocals, production, mix, and editing     
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 for voices that include bagpipes, Celtic flute, and Hammond B3, along with the bagpipe and "off with her head" outro
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four string Fender Precision bass

This song started as a rough recorded by Tez on his acoustic and electric guitars. He also wrote the lyrics right off the bat, and introduced them to the rest of The Eclectic Collective by singing them as a rough, too. His vision for this was to create a song that sounded like it could've been recorded at Headly Grange (recording place of several Led Zeppelin albums). He also wanted it to feature instruments that wouldn't sound out of entirely out of place in Feudal Age Britain (between 1000-1600 C.E.) to carry the spirit of his lyrics.
  Tez always writes songs that are fun to learn and have cool changes, so we all jumped in with both feet. Ken was first up with his Bonham like big, bad beat. To that, Josh added his P-bass, which he used a plectrum on, something he rarely does, trying to sound like JPJ to match his Ken's energy. JJ came along next, adding his colourful mix of raucous organ, time period relevant Celtic flute, and outro bagpipes. He did the entire outro, in fact, including the "off with her head," line, too. 
  Once the music was all laid down, Tez tapped Mark to sing the humorous lyrics. Mark came through with flying colors on the vocal performance, as always, too. Mark also added the textural, boingy-sounding jaw harp in the chorus sections.
  Now that it was all in the can, Two of our master producers Tez and Mark mixed it, then asked the third, Stephen, to do the final mastering. It should be noted, too, that Mark also contributed significantly to the production, too, with his masterful editing skills.
  This was a really fun tune to put together, as we always have fun working on Tez's seeds. He is telling the tale of lust between two Feudal era peasants. Of course, it's rife with ribaldry, being as Tez is British. We hope you enjoy listening to this a much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original yrics by Llanpsych:

Verse 1
Working in the fields
All summer long
Glowing like the sun
Oh so fit and strong 
Feudal Woman
I like the way you move
Feudal Woman
I want to plough your groove

Verse 2
Loving in the dusk
Lying in the hay
Drinking hot cider
Till the end of the day 
Feudal Woman
I like the way you move
Feudal Woman
I want to plough your groove

Feudal Woman Blues (The Eclectic Collective)

Starting off 2025, the new year, with a bit of uncertainty.
A life- choices theme? An Economic cautionary tale?
I prefer the political application of the Latin "Buyer Beware". The application came, in the US in November, turning back progress. In Canada, Trudeau has just announced his resignation. Buyer Beware, or to use Joni Mitchell's words, "You don't know what you've got til it's gone, they paved paradise (progress) and put up a parking lot (or oil pipelines, or coal mines, or trying to threaten neighbours and make enemies of friends). But the people knew what they were doing when they created this mess...or were they victims of social media, filters, throttles, algorithms, and moneyed influence peddling?

A dark musical synth-based veneer, casts a brooding affect over the listener, though, if the message is heard, embraced, and a direction changed, a hint of optimism may yet prevail.

Caveat Emptor (Buyer Beware)
Aaaaah….
Hear what you want to hear
And you see what you want to see
There is truth… and there is need
Caveat emptor…let the buyer be aware
Caveat emptor…beware
Shudda…like you shudda…check it out… like you shudda
Like you should …check it out (x2)
(INST)
The best that you can do, in a locked room
Is press your face to the window
Are you fearful of being angry?
Or so angry at being just fearful?
Caveat emptor…let the buyer be aware
Caveat emptor…beware!

Tic Tac, c'est un peu le Yin et le Yang, 
Texte et musique : Steph Ouna
Cœur et image : Lena https://soundcloud.com/user-262019520

Paroles :
Com, com, com,
Pâle, pâle !
Ton teint est pâle 
Tu le sais mais au fond
Peut-être que tu as mal
Sous ta carapace et sous tes écailles
J’ai bien peur que tu dérailles

De nature timide et aussi déraisonnable
Attaché à cette éphéméride 
Et à ton cartable
Toutes ces insomnies 
T’on rendu irritable
Au fond de tes ennuis, je sais que tu divagues

Refrain :
Tout tourne en rond 
Sous les lumières 
Tu cherches de l’ombre 
Et tu espères un monde magique
Tu tournes en rond
C’est ton affaire
Tu danses dans l’ombre 
Sans partenaire
Sur cet éphémère musique
Comme, conne tu déconnes je ne parlerai à personne de tes tics

Tu veux qu’on te dépanne, quand ton cœur est en panne, au bord du précipice, tu te jettes sur la piste, tu danses pour oublier


Pile,pile
Tu tombes à pile
Fais-moi juste découvrir ta face
Mais soudain tu cherches un mobile
Tu disparais sans laisser de trace

Ton parfum subtil et enivrant
Que tu as posé sur mes lèvres
Délicatement errant et enivrant
Juste avant que le jour se lève

Clair, clair
Cette fois tout s’éclaire
Tu délivres ton coté caméléon
Comme une aventurière solitaire
C’est devenu ton obsession

Refrain :
Tout tourne en rond 
Sous les lumières 
Tu cherches de l’ombre 
Et tu espères un monde magique
Tu tournes en rond
C’est ton affaire
Tu danses dans l’ombre 
Sans partenaire
Sur cet éternel musique
Comme, conne tu déconnes je ne parlerai à personne de tes tics

Tu veux qu’on te dépanne, quand ton cœur est en panne, au bord du précipice, tu te jettes sur la piste, tu danses pour oublier


Tire, tire
Tu les attires
Car tu le sais 
Tu ne manques pas d’air
Mais tu repars dans tes délires
La je crois que tu exagères

Terre, terre à terre
Tu libères ton instinct panthère
Comme un désert sans artifice
Pourtant, ici tout est imaginaire
Une sensation d’oasis

Refrain :
Tout tourne en rond 
Sous les lumières 
Tu cherches de l’ombre 
Et tu espères un monde magique
Tu tournes en rond
C’est ton affaire
Tu danses dans l’ombre 
Sans partenaire
Sur cet éphémère musique
Comme, conne tu déconnes je ne parlerai à personne de tes tics

Tu veux qu’on te dépanne, quand ton cœur est en panne, au bord du précipice, tu te jettes sur la piste, tu danses pour oublier

Planet Confusionn is a Jazz Fusion track and collaboration between myself and good friend John Corsaro. John sent me the track played as a single take, I then added everything else and mixed it, eventually producing what we have here. 
John is an incredible drummer and percussionist and it is my great honour to be able to join with him again on this track. The track was originally recorded around ten years ago.
Thanks for listening and hopefully get some enjoyment from doing so.

If You Want Me To

Inspired by “The New Colossus” by Emma Lazarus, 1883.

They got on boats, and they sailed across the ocean hoping for a better life
They left behind poverty, famine, hardship and strife
She lifted her lamp behind the golden door
She welcomed them with open arms 
But we don’t need those people any more 
We’ll use robots to tend our farms
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
They say a rising tide lifts all boats but now it’s every nation for itself
As the billionaires and oligarchs accumulate more wealth
We’re all just living on this rock floating in the vastness of space
You’d think we’d find a way to co-exist as one human race
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
Someday if you’re standing there waiting at the pearly gates
With a bunch of other people waiting in line to get into heaven
And you’re filling out God’s paperwork so you can immigrate 
How will answer that question did you love or did you hate 
There are people who call themselves Christians who don’t practice what they preach
They see a man whose down on his luck, and they consider him a human leech
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
There’s an angry mob wearing red caps
And they’re pulling on a rope
They’re trying to knock down that statue that gave so many people hope.
