Hey Scotty man, love the emotive expression you display with your guitaring. You voice and delivery are similarly steeped in emotion. This is a great song, brother man. Way to go with it!

This is great, Scotty.  Nice guitar and vocals.

digging the vibe here  ... hearing Johnny Thunders and Neil Young sound great verity lyrics...great sound to my ears  sounds

Love those dissonant chords, makes it jazzy!  Excellent tune, really has it's own feel and vibe!

Diggin' this man... the dark despair of being left out in the cold.

A distant call in gentle waves,
lost between space and time.
The silence carries hidden songs,
a whisper from eternity.

Carry me away, oh gentle stream,
where no shadow lingers.
Lead me where dreams live,
where the soul hurries home.

The wind tells of old paths,
that no one dares to tread anymore.
The earth breathes silent names,
that time held in its hands.

Carry me away, oh gentle stream,
where no shadow lingers.
Let me fall, deep into silence,
where the light divides the morning.

… take me with you…
through time…

This song began with Stephen, who recorded it on his acoustic guitar and bass to a programmed drum track a few months ago. We were all thrilled to work on it, even though it sat in BandLab as a project for almost a month before Stephen separated the tracks, thus allowing us to trickle in our parts. JJ was first to jump on it, because he could before the tracks were separated, as his part is completely his idea. He added the organ that really set up the entire sound of both dominant sections of the song. 
  Ken was first up to the project once the tracks were replaceable, making the wild, driving beat his own. Inspired by both JPJ and Michael Ivins, Josh laid down his bass line, trying to match Ken's energy. Last, but not least, Mark jumped in with the rumbling timpani. He also added the flavorful harmonica, and unique jaw harp you hear throughout, as well. Finally, Stephen also got the idea to add the hambone percussion at the very end of the song, which we all consider a treat, and after showing us how it's done, Mark volunteered his percussion skills to give it a go. Stephen wasn't done, though, and still had some magic to sprinkle. He went in and added the howling electric guitar you hear prominently in the second main section. Also, he added the tempting intro with his acoustic guitar and electric mandolin. 
  Once it was in the bag, we thought it appropriate for our master mixer Stephen to put it to bed, which he did in his always expert manner.
  This is a gift from Stephen to all of us, and you, too. It took a lot of teamwork to make the dream work, as always for Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

SECOND SKIN

'spiraling'
art: Gems

Girl, where have ya gone?
& why won't you pick up your phone?
You told me you'd be home.
But I'm standin' all alone. 

Spiraling inside my brain.
Certain thoughts make me insane.
I'm feeling trapped inside your game
of which I've yet to ascertain.

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–piano, drums, and composition

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Gibson Les Paul electric guitar, mix, mastering, and production

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four string bass, mandolin, and synth

Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – symphonic VST instruments including flute and horns, vocal effects, and bells

This song began on the last day of the cold January of this year, when Ken sat down at his piano and recorded an improvisational jam. This is the first song Eclectic Collective has done where Ken started it with a piano, so we were all very excited to work on it.

Josh was the first one to add a part, adding his fretless bass guitar, and going back and forth with Ken, while he added the drums to match the groove up right. Josh also added the mandolin after the guitars were laid down, as well as the descending synth blasts you hear throughout. Before all that, though, Stephen recorded the first half of the thrilling guitar you hear in there. After Stephen had his part down, Tez came along and finished the guitar work in the second part. Last, but certainly not least, Mark added the amazing symphonic elements, specifically the horns and flute you hear in there. He also added the cold January wind, represented by his breath and some tinkling bells.

Once it was all wrapped up, we asked Stephen to put a bow on it with his expert production, which he came through with, as always.

As mentioned, this is an extraordinary offering from EC, starring Ken not only on drums, but on the keys, as well. It felt like we were jamming all together in the same room, and hope it comes across that way. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Love is… (lyrics)

Love is gravity, love is a
Force that unfolds and reveals; 
Love is gravity, love is light

Love is gravity, 
it makes some people feel attracted. 

Love is gravity  power, Love force
unfolds and reveals
Love is day and night

Love is gravity

Someday

Felix is Sleeping

like a frog on a ladder
i am climbing to the light
i walk through the river
like a lonely ghost tonight

like a storm in winter
and like a morning song
i wait for the glimmer
of that moment on lawn

like a lost old fire 
going out under the rain
i climb a little higher 
and i hope hear to (your name)
