Singer Le Singe | Matziz | CLIP en description

trying to compose an ambient song with my electric guitar! I really don't have much idea of ​​how to play this instrument! But I guess it must be good to change instruments and try others!

Acid And Dark - PART 2

Let’s stay inside, the weather’s bad today
Come back to bed, we can dream this rainy day away
Do we really have to face the world again
These stormy days don’t seem to end
Just draw the curtains, stay in the dark and we’ll sleep in

Dream with me, and we won’t come to any harm
Only we can see us through the winter storm
A love like ours ain’t likely found
Just once in a lifetime it comes around
This kind of love it leaves you ten feet off the ground

Let’s hibernate through the winter time
‘til a warm spring day when the sun shines
And the sky is blue, the grass is green
And the world returns to fine
Winter’s here but spring ain’t far behind
Let’s stay in bed today, you precious love of mine

Let’s turn off the news, it’s getting worse and worse each day
There’s too much going on, and i’m afraid to look away
Do we really have to face the world again
These stormy days don’t seem to end
Just draw the curtains, stay in the dark and we’ll sleep in


A Song For Winter Weather

Changes - A Pop Rock Journey of Embracing the Unexpected

Sometimes, the best moments in life come from the changes we can’t control. Changes is a high-energy pop rock track that captures the beauty of embracing life’s unpredictable shifts. Built on four distinct hooks—an intricate dual guitar strumming groove and three vocal motifs—this song is all about letting go, moving forward, and discovering something amazing along the way.

🎸 The Story Behind Changes

This song was born from a live demo on Jacktrip, where I was showcasing my typical composing workflow. The foundation started with a layered acoustic guitar collage using the Ample Guitar plugin, setting the stage for the opening vocal line to naturally emerge. As the track took shape, an unexpected but magical moment happened—Solaria’s vocal scat, a spontaneous addition, became a defining element of the song.

At its core, Changes reflects the personal and creative growth that occurs when we surrender to the unknown. The rhythmic interplay of the two acoustic guitars represents the duality of change—sometimes harmonious, sometimes conflicting, but always pushing forward. The vocal hooks, carefully woven into the arrangement, act as guideposts through the emotional landscape of the track, echoing the ebb and flow of transformation.

Solara’s vocal scat wasn’t planned—it simply happened in the moment. This unfiltered expression perfectly embodied the essence of Changes: the beauty of spontaneity and the surprises that come when we trust the creative process. In that sense, Changes is more than just a song; it’s a testament to the way music, much like life, evolves beyond our expectations.

🌤 A Visual Journey

The music video for Changes brings its themes to life with "concrete abstract" imagery—clouds drifting in the wind, forming fleeting pictures in the sky, only to disappear and make way for new ones. This visual metaphor highlights the impermanence of moments and the joy found in experiencing them while they last. Just as the sky is constantly shifting, so too are we, and rather than resisting, we can choose to move with the change.

The color palette of the video reflects this free-spirited energy, incorporating warm, nostalgic hues that evoke a happy, flower-child feel. It’s a visual representation of the optimism and liberation that comes with embracing life's twists and turns.

🎶 For Fans Of:

Changes (Demo 20250218)

Cast of Characters:
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick four string fretless bass, Sigma acoustic guitar, PRS SE semi hollow body guitar, composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussoin
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ 
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – VST horns - trumpet, bone, & sax, latin drum ensemble, and editing production 
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Production, mix, and mastering


This song began in the dead of winter on a cold night with Josh sitting in his studio with his acoustic guitar playing along to a looper beat. He loves bossa nova music and wanted to write a song in that style. Of course, he wrote it with the Eclectic Collecive in mind. 
  Josh also came up with the bass line to the looper, but changed it once Ken weighed in with his perfectly suited drum kit. He also added the funky main percussion you hear throughout. Then JJ got involved and laid down that wonderfully melodic organ part you hear in there. Josh, having not laid down a lead guitar part yet, used JJ melodic idea for the first verse, too, because it's so strong. Mark was last to the trough, but added several really stunning parts that added a lot of depth to the whole thing. He's responsible for the horn arrangement that accompanies JJ's organ solo, as well as the horn arrangement and entire break section at the end, which he not only drumed on, but edited and inserted seamlessly, as well. He also added percussion to Ken's percussion throughout the entire song, as well. He still gets paid the same as the rest of us, though 
  This is an example of us Josh introducing an unfamiliar type of music, and it being picked up on and carried through expertly as a group unit. We all love a challenge in the EC, and this fit the bill. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Dancing Demons

This is my new single. It’s about accepting life’s challenges, working through them and then using that learning to adapt and survive.  I’ve posted an earlier version here before but it’s remixed and mastered (RCD Audio). 
I hope you enjoy it. Take care.

Lyrics:
My Uncertain Steps 

As a boy, I was scared of the sea
With my family, on a beach in Normandy, 
a French boy told me the ghosts of drowned sailors grab your legs and dragged you down
I wouldn’t go in! 
Too naive and trusting! 

As a teen, I was all over the place! 
Always confused, just didn’t know which way to face
Too many temptations, suggestions and thrills, distracting and wild
Couldn’t think straight 
Couldn’t concentrate! 

It was always their demands and directions 
Had to meet their dreams and expectations 

My uncertain steps
No confidence 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps 
At my own pace
(My way) 

My wreckage of a life, with this chaotic love
Constant demands, you can never do enough 
Mix in the bullies, the twisters and those egos too
It pulls you apart
Breaks your heart 

I’m seasoned, I now know this path
One crisis avoided, another starts 

My uncertain steps
More experienced 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps
At my own pace 
(My way) 

And now I expect to see the worst
In everyone and everything I know
Just know how it is, but feel I can somehow 
see it through

(outro) 
I’ve got friends (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve lived and learnt (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve got you (for my uncertain steps) 
I’ll get through this (my uncertain steps)

My Uncertain Steps (Single version)

A new composition......

Lyrics:
We wander this earth on a small blue dot
Chasing our dreams, with all that we’ve got
Different colors and different shades
Yet deep down inside, we’re all just afraid
They say that we’re one, but we build up the walls
In shadows and silence, we stumble and fall


Oh, we are one people, can’t you see
A tapestry woven, you and me
From rags to riches, we share the same air
Longing for peace, yet we’re lost in despair


Some live in towers, eye touching the skies
While others just scrape by, with hope in their eyes
We trade our compassion for money and pride
Looking away as our neighbor’s divide
Guess we forget what really remains
Love’s a bridge over all of our pains


In the tunnels of red and blue
The chaos screams but we can break through
If we dare to hold out a hand
Find the strength to understand
