Galaxy Ping-Pong

Zarine - Galaxy Ping Pomg Cut Vers.

“A song inspired by global crisis about hope and things getting better; to refrain from singing The Blues. Taking influence from Metallica, Guns N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver.”

DON'T LOAD THE BLUES JUST YET

Don’t load The Blues just yet

Take a drink 
This is life 
It ain’t as worse as you think 
Take a step
Run to the cliff 
Go to the edge and dive right in

It’s time to storm the weather 
The past ain’t cement 
It’s going to get tough
Trouble’s been sent 
Don’t load The Blues just yet 

Spit out the pain and hate
Breathe in what remains 
Bounce forward and step by step
Take that turn and hope for the best

CAST OF CHARACTERS:
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- electric piano, synth, seed idea
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark –  vocals, lyrics, mix, and production
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–banjo, guitar, sitar, and final mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, seed idea
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four-string fretless bass

Composition – The Eclectic Collective
This song started in probably the most effective way our group writes them. Ken had a spectacular drum beat that was unused in a previous project, so JJ composed and recorded  a chord arrangement with his magical keys. Once we had a beat and a chord structure, Josh came along and added his foundational bass. 
     Now that the rhythm section was complete and the chord structure was in place, Stephen added his unique melody line that you hear at the beginning and every other verse on his magic banjo. He also plays all the initial guitar until around 1:40, where Tez takes over. Stephen also added some really trippy sitar in the vocal section. Then it was time for Tez to add some spice to the mix with his fiery guitar solos from about 1:40 on, eventually building up to a crescendo towards the end. 
     Once we had all the music down, we realized that we had a big gap in the bridge without much going on in it. So, Mark came through with an old poem he had written on his fridge with word magnets for his daughter more than a decade ago, and expanded on it for this song. (the poem is loosely based on the idea that our dreams exist in a digital environment/universe) The young girl's voice you hear echoing Mark's filtered voice is his daughter, in her first appearance with the EC. 
     The song was now finished, except for Mark using his production skills to trim and move a few things, then mix it. While we usually defer to Tez or Stephen for the mix, Mark did such a great job, we decided to keep his mix. Stephen did, however master and EQ it to make it a finished product. 
     This song was truly put together as a whole band effort, showcasing what the Eclectic Collective can do. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.  

Original lyrics by Mistermark:  

The moon flickers on
and rises and dances
across a celestial stage
as dreamers paint the pixels of their mind 
like an infinite canvas 

Sleep away tiny egg
and leave a delicate thread 
of memory behind 
but never log out 
you are in the elaborate web
always

Dancing Moon (The Eclectic Collective)

[English lyrics below]

I was a high-schooler, not yet able (if at all) to write decent lyrics. So I resorted to more or less famous poems, but also to short stories from which I cut out fragments and stitched them together. Under my scalpel also fell 'Superfluous Invitations', a short story by Dino Buzzati published in 1958 in 'Sixty Short Stories'. There is a version that I recovered from a 1977 tape , but I had the desire to replay and rearrange it a few time ago.
2024, May 22 (Last version). At the sax Jörg (@joerxworx); together we have also produced an only instrumental version of the track (https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/i-would-like-you-to-come-instrumental  AND  https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx/michele-ansani-instrumental-with-alto-sax-2).

Cover picture: "Ritratto di Eura", from the graphic novel of Dino Buzzati, Poema a fumetti (Poem Strip), Milano 1969.

English Lyrics

I would like you to come to me on a winter evening
and huddled together behind the window looking at the night
we would remember the winters of fairy tales
where we lived together without knowing it.

By the same fairy paths did you and I walk
together we went through forests full of wolves
together without knowing it perhaps we both gazed
towards the mysterious life that awaited us

‘Do you remember?’ we will say each other and you will smile,
while outside will sound the wind's shaken metal sheets
but you - now I remember - do not know the ancient tales
of the nameless kings, of ogres and bewitched gardens

You have never passed enraptured under the magical talking trees
nor have you ever knocked on the door of the abandoned castle.
you have never walked in the night towards a distant light
nor have you ever fallen asleep under the stars of the East

Behind the window in the winter evening probably
we will remain mute like two strangers
I would ask ‘do you remember?’
but you would not remember
you would not remember

Chromes Castle

UH!!
C’MON, SHAKE IT, SHAKE IT — ALL YOU BROKEN HEADS!
YEAH!

We’re the cracked skull nation, wild and loud,
Stompin’ on the pavement, standin’ proud.
Every scar’s a story, every bruise a song,
You can kick us down — we just groove along!

HEY HEY — HEADS DON’T BREAK!
HEY HEY — WE JUST SHAKE!
UP TO THE SKY, ARMS GO HIGH!
WE’RE STILL ALIVE — AND WE JUMP TONIGHT!

BROKEN HEADS — RAISE ‘EM UP!
FUNKY RHYTHMS — NEVER STOP! 
ALL AROUND THEY’RE SCREWING YOU 
BUT WE DANCE, ‘CAUSE THAT’S WHAT WE DO! 
BROKEN HEADS — STOMP THE FLOOR! 
JUMPIN’ HIGH ‘TIL WE WANT MORE! 
YEAH, DANCE, BABY, DANCE —



They sell you lies in a velvet cage,
Smile in your face while they load the stage.
But we don’t care, we got riffs to burn,
Every broken head — it’s your turn!

HEY HEY — HEADS DON’T BREAK!
HEY HEY — WE JUST SHAKE! UP  TO THE SKY, ARMS GO HIGH!
WE’RE STILL ALIVE — AND WE JUMP TONIGHT!


BROKEN HEADS — RAISE ‘EM UP! 
FUNKY RHYTHMS — NEVER STOP!
ALL AROUND THEY’RE SCREWING YOU 
BUT WE DANCE, ‘CAUSE THAT’S WHAT WE DO! 
BROKEN HEADS — STOMP THE FLOOR! 
JUMPIN’ HIGH ‘TIL WE WANT MORE! 
YEAH, DANCE, BABY, DANCE 

Kick it, slap it, rip it raw,
We don’t bend — we break the law!
Hands up high, never fall,
BROKEN HEADS ARE STANDING TALL!


BROKEN HEADS — RAISE ‘EM UP!
FUNKY RHYTHMS — NEVER STOP!
ALL AROUND THEY’RE SCREWING YOU —
BUT WE DANCE, ‘CAUSE THAT’S WHAT WE DO!
BROKEN HEADS — STOMP THE FLOOR!
JUMPIN’ HIGH ‘TIL WE WANT MORE!
YEAH, DANCE, BABY, DANCE —

Close to my heart is raising awareness of HYPER MOBILITY EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME. 

“Sometimes when you hear hoofbeats, it really is a zebra.”

No two zebras have identical stripes and no two people with Hyper Mobility Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome are identical. They have different symptoms, different types, and different experiences.
