MUSICA EPICA CHE DESCRIVE LA TRAGEDIA DI UN GUERRIERO

NEW HEROES 2021

Haunted by the prospect of being accused of cultural appropriation,i must haste to point out a few argumants to my defence. Firtsly i will never make any money on this song,nor did i compose it for such a reason. Secondly i have the deepest respect for all native american tribes,their traditions and connection to nature and the spirit within.Had their culture prevailed the onslaught of western values we might still live on a planet untouched by human made climate change,industrial pollution and the specter of nuclear annihilation hanging over all our paranoid heads.Its such a paradox that western culture has brought us both human rights and a severe disconnect from nature,including our own nature within. 
Thirdly i have allways had a fascination for chanting of various ethnic origin,wether from native american tribes,or some buddhist monks chanting mantras.As an inborn eclectic i borrrow elements from wherever i find them and merge them into my mold of funk,jazz,pop,rock,elctronica and you name it.
But its all done with the utmost respect from my part,so if anyone should feel exploited i ensure you it was never my intention.
Most of the chanting within this song is from The Hopi nation,and the striking image to accompany the song is a cave painting of the ANT PEOPLE as described by the Hopi themselves. Oh..and the spoken words are from using a TEXT TO SPEECH online app.(Never done that before.)

Cast of characters:
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition and foundational rhythm guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar solos choruses, mix, and production
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell –electric piano, synth, and intro composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–Guitar solo in the verses
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass guitar
 
This song began with Artur composing the entire skeleton, and recording it against a mechanical beat. He presented it to Josh, who immediately shared it with The Eclectic Collective. Ken first replaced the metronomic beat with a real, rocking drum sound. Josh promptly added his fretless bass to it, to complete the rhythm section. Soon after, JJ added his electric piano magic, including a short solo, to the stew. Once the rhythmic framework was laid down, Stephen got to work on the choruses, coming up with solid, melodic lines for them. Then, it was Tez's turn to light up the verses with his monster guitar. When we had it mostly completed, Artur asked JJ if he'd do an intro to it. JJ came up with the whole psychedelic intro in response. 
  When it was finished, we asked Stephen if he would mix it for us, which he did with his typical mastery and attention to detail. We all really enjoy making music with Artur, and have been fans of and collaborators with him for almost a year now. If you like the sound of this song, you would do well to go check out his page, too, as he has a bunch of gems on there. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

   This composition is dedicated to J.J., Josh, Ken, Stephen and Tez 😎 Thank you guys for your friendship, outstanding playing and creativity! 🌞🎸

Lyrics:

They’re creeping around in the dark 
Something is haunting me
Alone with my shadows, my doubts and my fears
Alone with all the shit you can’t see

And I never showed, but they keep me in chains
In the height of my life, and they’re the root of my pain
It’s time to cut them loose 
And just move on

And I know it’s only me
My own worst enemy
Time to just move on

I’m here 
There’s no way to change the past 
And I’m tired of looking back
I know I gotta move on
Know I gotta be strong
Here
Life will move on by 
If I don’t get up and try
So, I’m breaking chains 
I’m gonna leave the pain right here

You’re worthless
You’ll never amount to anything
You just wait

I know it’s had me trapped
Like a rope around my throat 
And I know that it’s me that’s holding the leash 
I just need the strength to let go

And I know it’s only me
My own worst enemy
It's time to just move on

I’m here 
There’s no way to change the past 
And I’m tired of looking back
I know I gotta move on
Know I gotta be strong
Here
Life will move on by 
If I don’t get up and try
So, I’m breaking chains 
I’m gonna leave the pain right here

I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising in me
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising in me
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising in me

Move on

I’m here 
There’s no way to change the past
And I’m tired of looking back
I know I gotta move on
Know I gotta be strong
Here
Life will move on by if I don’t get up and try
So, I’m breaking chains 
I’m gonna leave the pain right here

I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising in me
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising in me
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising
I feel the light rising in me

This track is dedicated to the artists and organisation of the NEW18 selection (check the playlist [sc link]).

We spent a weekend in an hotel in the Ardennes for a songcamp.
After a Bullfrog workshop with Jacqnoise (which was terrific, see link to learn more about this amazing woman!), I gathered many samples that inspire me extremely.

I found an old unfinished track (feb 2022) and put some of the samples in it to make a soundscape that expresses my gratitude. It also has a sample from Sly & The Family Stone, Family Affair, love that song!

Musicians and producers are cool people. Spending 4 days with eachother at one place, full focus on music production: it gave me nothing but positive vibes and inspiration!

This track might feel like it needs visuals, it is stuffed with samples from my first in depth irl contact with a magic machine that I mostly know from VSTs. 
A new step in the world of music for me! 
❤️‍🔥

met Carlotta's zoete stem! Een hele tijd geleden... 

Als in een boek in een andere taal 
ben je beland in een vreemd verhaal
Doolt door het huis je voelt je alleen
gaat niet buiten gaat nergens heen

Praat tegen muren, ze antwoorden niet 
praat tegen jezelf, maar je hoort het niet
denk niet dat ik het niet weet
ik hoor en zie je diep verdriet

Als je roept kom ik naar je toe 
probeer te slapen je bent zo moe 
ik zal over je waken 
in donkere zee, ben ik je licht, ben ik je baken 
geen loze woorden, ik zal er voor je zijn 
van nu af aan ben ik je reddingslijn

Je voelt je een scherf van een vaas die aan diggelen ligt (x2)
Maar dan ben je een deel van een groter geheel 
goed omringd en niet alleen				x2
Een golf van de zee, een straal van het licht		x2
 een rijm in een mooi gedicht
Als je roept kom ik naar je toe 
probeer te slapen, je bent zo moe 
ik zal over je waken 
in donkere zee , ben ik je licht ben ik je baken 
geen loze woorden ik zal er voor je zijn 
van nu af aan ben ik je reddingslijn
goed omringd en niet alleen, deel van een groter geheel

Translation:
Like in a book in another language
you have ended up in a strange story
Wandering through the house you feel alone
doesn't go outside doesn't go anywhere

Talk to walls, they don't answer
talk to yourself, but you don't hear it
Don't think I don't know
I hear and see your deep sorrow

If you call, I will come to you
try to sleep you are so tired
I will watch over you
in the dark sea, I am your light, I am your beacon
no empty words, I will be there for you
From now on, I'm your lifeline

You feel like a shard of a vase that is shattered (x2)
But then you are part of a bigger picture
well surrounded and not just a pixle
A wave of the sea, a ray of light 
 a rhyme in a beautiful poem
If you call, I will come to you
try to sleep, you're so tired
I will watch over you
In the dark sea, I am your light, I am your beacon
no empty words I will be there for you
From now on, I'm your lifeline
well surrounded and not alone, part of a larger whole

Lost in the crowd
We're meeting after all
No digital
Our first Rendez-Vous
We were from cloud
But now we're physical
Don't tell me Baby!
I still can't believe I can touch you

Now it's for real
Can you feel
Your bodie's taking the shape of love
There's no deal
You can steal
My heart and soul with your velvet gloves

Will I survive the shock?
Of this new sensation
You made my world unlock
Like a revelation

You can be proud 
In love you made me fall
Forget it all
Do you feel it too?
Laughing out loud
We look hysterical
Oh come on Baby!
Don't you see
What's between me and you?

Now it's for real
Can you feel
Your bodie's taking the shape of love
There's no deal
You can steal
My heart and soul with your velvet gloves

Will I survive the shock?
Of this new sensation
You made my world unlock
Like a revelation
