"Magic is what we do. Music is how we do it." -- Jerry Garcia

Welcome to my page, my peers, associates, friends, and musical family. I'm a lifelong, multi-instrumentalist musician who records prolifically and joyfully. You'll hear me play guitar, bass (regular four string, and four and five string fretless), mandolin, banjo, keys (piano, organ, synth), lap slide, sitar, and sing on my recordings here. I've been in a few dozen bands in my life, playing everything from bluegrass, jazz, rock, jam band, reggae, funk, afrobeat, Middle Eastern, traditional Irish, singer/songwriter, pop/covers, to experimental/avant garde. 
  Since I found SoundCloud a couple years ago, I've found many talented, creative people with whom to create music. However, in the summer of '23 I formed a band called The Eclectic Collective with some of my favorite musicians I've met through here. It started as a loose collective of musicians and coalesced into a core group of musicians who find other musicians with whom we'd like to make music, then run their songs through our process, and in effect add a full band. That core of The Eclectic Collective includes Tez (Llanpsych), J.J. Terrel, Ken (K2 and the Three), Stephen (Texmex Shaman), Chris (cgmaness), and Mark (mistermark). A couple of other musicians are frequent collaborators, as well, including Artur of Surfers Like Us, and Steve Vervaet of Steve's World. More recently, we've been joined by Carl of The Beautiful Dark fame. 
  The magic of music is amplified exponentially by each person adding to it. So, we really try to add our sorcery all kinds of music from all kinds of artists. Sometimes, we keep it within the group, but a lot of what we do is collaboration with other artists. Therefore these days, 100% of what I do is collaboration, within the group or with other artists on the side.
  I, and we, are also available for hire if you have a song or lyrics and you really want to add bigger instrumentation or a band and good production to it. 
  A small sampling of the artists whom I consider primary influences, and whom you will hear coming through my fingers include Phish, The Flaming Lips, The Grateful Dead, Radiohead, Rye Cooder, Steve Earle, Miles Davis, Fela Kuti, Arcade Fire, Mikey Dread, Yellowman, Purpleman, The Meditations, Michigan and Smiley, Lee Perry, Dillinger, Django Reinhardt, Impossible Recording Machine, The Allman Bros Band, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Bela Fleck, Les Claypool, Sam Bush, David Grissman, John Prine, Talking Heads, Beastie Boys, MMW, Moe., Morphine, Ween, Steve Lukather, Michael McDonald, John Abercrombie, Dave Holland, John Scofield, Victor Wooten,  Cannonball Adderly, Thelonious Monk, Flea, Parliament Funkadelic,  Frank Zappa, Prince Paul, Pete Rock, Thievery Corporation, Amon Tobin, Chet Baker, Joao Gilberto, Stan Getz, Astrud Gilberto, Carol Kaye, Tame Impala, Mumford and Sons, Japanese Breakfast, LCD Soundsystem, Beach House, Sean Lennon, and Billy Strings, but of course there are many more. I also really like and am influenced by traditional Iranian, Palestinian, Indian, Sri Lankan, Sudanese, Mauritian, Somalian, Egyptian, West African, and Syrian music. I welcome anyone who plays non-western music to contact me for a collaboration, too.
 I'm overjoyed to have found my community on SoundCloud. This is a truly unique forum where everyone is sincerely trying to build each other up. The profoundly supportive and positive SoundCloud community has really opened up an exciting new world of collaboration for me. That is the main reason I'm in the Cloud, actually, to connect with other musicians and make music that I enjoy listening to, and hopefully others do, as well. I am ALWAYS looking to collaborate with interesting musicians, mostly though BandLab, which is where I record almost exclusively. It's a solid, free digital audio workstation hub where you can share recording projects, even if it's not where you make your recordings.
  Everything I do is live instrumental, not programmed, and using no computer beyond my phone. That's not to say that I would be opposed to using that kind of tool, it's just not my preferred medium with which to paint. If you like my music, please share it. If you want to collaborate, my BandLab handle is @bingo_pajama. Feel free to contact me at cornbreadband@hotmail.com, as well, even if you aren't on BandLab.
  If your music is primarily AI, please don't come around my page, as I'm not at all interested in complimenting a machine.
  Here's a link to music I've recorded live with a group of musicians here in Pittsburgh called The Northumberland Street Ramblers.

Now available- Blink Twice - Newer Unknown Breeds 
https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/newer-unknown-breeds-expanded-edition

Expanded version of Blink Twice's 2nd album (originally released 1998), with bonus never before released material from 2000-2003

"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.


For the full scope of my output including new Blink Twice tracks,  I direct you to my main Mood Exhibit account- https://soundcloud.com/r-salchaks-mood-exhibit
Blink Twice  is my alter ego project of electro/industrial/dark ambient/experimental.
This account has no more room for uploads, but Blink Twice still exists as my dark subconscious -
Reposts and support of like minded artists will continue on this page. Thank you for your interest

Dude from the hills. Thankyou for taking the time to listen and supporting my works, it is very much appreciated.

My new EP, 'maisey moore' under CRSY is out now. Check it out via the links below :-) if you'd like a free code for the Bandcamp release then just give us a shout
Still CRSY, just fancied a name change 😁

At home producer of electronic tracks in varying styles - I really enjoy experimenting with melding different genres. 
Been writing songs since the mid 70's whilst playing bass & drums in various bands (the first one was a punk band) and digitally writing since 2006. Retired now, so much more time for having fun with music :) It's just a hobby for me these days; Soundcloud is just a great place to share music & connect with people who have the same interests.  All my recent music is free to download - if you want to download any that don't have a download link, just let me know :)
I appreciate - and love to listen to - all genres, from orchestral through to metal. 

Thank you for reading, and hope you enjoy the music.

When the human being decides to erase the borders between countries and believes more in people than in gods, money will disappear and we will understand everything, despite the fact that a million wars will have been as stupid as they were inevitable.
Until then, enjoy the views and good luck!!

FREEDOM OF OPINION - FREEDOM OF THOUGHT - FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION

Some say I don't mince words. I sometimes say terrible things, as well as sweet and superfluous ones. I can love and hate, but I always maintain respect for those who love me or provoke me.

Currently, the world is changing dangerously. Those responsible are not always who we think. And those who deserve punishment are undoubtedly those who cause it, but even more so those who instigate it.

I like Americans and I like Russians. What I appreciate much less is the politics of these countries, their leaders, their underlings, and their administrations... In France, it must be admitted that things have been a real mess for the past few years, and there's nothing we can do about it. We joined the European Union, which now imposes its directives, which dark and idiotic "governors" implement without a word, since their countries are no longer sovereign.

We knew the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics)... and now we are 27 countries in the UESR (Union of European Socialist Republics).

This UESR is a monumental mistake, not the very beginning, but the one it has become, an entity that relentlessly pursues its devastating expansionism, which also allows NATO bases in the countries of the union, and which the Russians consider a direct threat. Well, I understand them!

Remember the Cuban Missile Crisis from October 14 to 27, 1962, a diplomatic and military confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union was "too close" and represented a direct threat! It was almost the beginning of World War III, so the Soviet Union withdrew its missiles. Let the United States do the same now by withdrawing its NATO nuclear missiles, which it has deployed throughout the European Union.

The European Union promised us peace—which is, after all, why it was created—but now it wants war. It must be said that what the European Union has lacked (from the very beginning!) is a common defense, which was not the case for the former Soviet Union or even for the United States today.

The United States of Europe is like the frog that wanted to be bigger than the ox. Without a common defense, it is headed for certain doom, or it relies on NATO for its defense, but the game is no longer the same and would be much more dangerous for the entire world. This is where forced expansionism leads.

Peace on Earth to people of goodwill - ❤️🕊️🙏
