All Roads Lead You Home

Unlike our previous two collabs, Dan does lyrics, vocals and lead guitars on an instrumental by me.
I made a 7/4 track for him, knowing he can sail odd waves, and here you are the fantastic result !!

Verse 1:
A promise was made
And It shouldn’t fade
The words were spoken
Then they was broken

We were in the bright sunshine
I thought she was mine
It’s not something you can pawn
And asa now she is gone

I was here forever beau
It was years ago

Verse 2:
But I thought it still held
Like a solid weld

A promise is a promise
Even for a doubting Thomas
It should carry some weight
It doesn’t have an expiration date

But a last I find
That things can unwind
And we are not together
In this Summer weather

Verse 3:
She made her assurance
But I had no insurance
From the broken promise she made
Yes our romance began to fade

Now I am in the dark
What was there was just a spark
Now I Don’t know
Which way to go

No direction in my life
Yes I’m living in such strife
Wondering if life means anything
My joy has no more spring

I am that sad guy you passed by
Not noticing the tears in his eyes

I recommend that anyone learning to play the guitar listen to this piece over and over again, playing the Gm/B♭pentatonic scale in various ways, and trying to find a phrase that you like.

The volume adjustment during mixdown is optimized for the environment when using the earphones that come with the iPhone. If you feel that the volume of the guitar playing in this work is low, please use earphones and check the volume balance of this recording. It seems that earphones other than those that came with the iPhone do not have any problems. When using an Android device and when connecting an audio interface to a PC, I connected inexpensive earphones and confirmed that the guitar volume can be heard at a roughly appropriate balance.

There is another way. I have embedded a SoundCloud player on my blog to introduce my works, but I noticed that this work sounds harder (mid-high tones are clearer) than when played directly in the browser. If the guitar volume seems low or the sound quality sounds cloudy, please open the following and play this recording with the SoundCloud player embedded there.

IPG1 X FRAWSTAKWA X RiZLiX - Anything Goes - ft.JUNZO on electric guitar

Cast of Characters:
E Ruizzo-- https://soundcloud.com/ruizzoidman21centurions --Manuel-- composition, lyrics, Squier Stratocaster electric guitar, vocals, mix, and production
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- piano, accordion, and horn
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Jose Ramirez nylon stringed flamenco style guitar, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four string Fender Precision Bass bass

This song began all the way back when Manuel was 16 and found love that summer with a girl named Carmen. He remembered her, though, and wrote this song about her all these years later. The title of the song means "Your name has the song," and the lyrics spell out the girl's charms using the letters of her name. Check out the lyrics and the translation below. 
  Using that inspiration, Manuel came up with the song structure and the vocal melodies to a rudimentary drum track with his electric guitar. He then asked Josh if the group would be interested in taking it on. Josh, never being one to refuse a challenging piece of music, and always on the lookout for interesting musicians with whom to collaborate, accepted his kind offer and created a project for the rest of the Eclectic Collecitve to join. He started the whole thing off by adding his bass, to which Ken added his innovative drums, to which Josh redid his bass, as is the typical process in the EC.
  Next up was JJ, who you'd think he'd grown up with Spanish music the way he added the horns, accordion, and piano. Then Stephen stepped in and added his psychedelic and intricate acoustic guitar to the stew. 
  It was all done, except for the mix at this point. Manuel did the honors, and did it very expertly. Stephen mastered it to give it more volume and dynamism, too, as he always does. 
  This was the first, but we hope not the last, time the EC has collaborated with Manuel, although we're all fans of the incredible music on his page. He was a true delight to work with, giving honest, encouraging feedback and helping us shape his song to meet his vision. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by E Ruizzo:

TU NOMBRE TIENE LA CANCIÓN  /  YOUR NAME HAS THE SONG

Qué es una lágrima en el desierto?  /  What is a tear in the desert?
Cae sin ruido, se evapora y se olvida.  /  It falls without noise, evaporates and is forgotten.
No tiene tiempo de brillar, su vida  /  It has no time to shine, its life
es corta y su camino tan incierto…  /  is short and its path so uncertain...

Ce del calor del desierto y su sol,  /  ‘C’ for the heat of the desert and its sun,
a del adiós por el que lloré tanto;  /  ‘a’ for the farewell for which I cried so much;
erre del río que forma mi llanto;  /  ‘r’ for the river formed by my crying;
eme de miedo, de magia y de amor.  /  ‘m’ for fear, for magic and for love.

E de esperanza, de espacio rosado,  /  ‘E’ for hope, for pink space,
de espina clavada, de suelta emoción;  /  for stuck thorn, for loose emotion;
ene de noche de un tiempo pasado.  /  ‘n’ for night of a past time.

Carmen, tu nombre tiene la canción  /  Carmen, your name has the song
de todo aquello que has significado:  /  of all that you have meant:
Carmen de luz, de sonrisa y de adiós.  /  Carmen of light, of smile and of goodbye.

Tu Nombre Tiene La Canción (with The Eclectic Collective)

Until now, my music was almost completely ununderstood except for the SoundCloud community (I am very grateful to you). Why is that? I haven't even been able to face that question. However, this time, with the beginning of 2025, I will also change! I decided. I have to break out of my shell. I have to incorporate trends. That being said, since I did all the work, the music ended up being strange and typical of me. It's a strange piece of music, but I think you'll enjoy it. Go ahead and press the play button.

Lyrics :
I want your lover to give you away
Your eyes blue eyes talk me too much
So long so long time ago
I had desire to forget them
(Go?)

Tell me the number
I hate your lies
When it is rainy
It's time to leave
So much confusion 
Steps to hell
Nobody knows my secret job

A B C D
A B C Ah

Sit down 
Stand up
Fading hearts
There is no choice
Already in
I saw
You found
No mistakes
'Cause you love to rock 'n' roll
(Go?)

Troubles
Silence
There's no truth
When you look back in trash in the cage
I say
You have no possibilities
No
No
No overcome

A B C D
A B C Z
Woo Hoo!!
(Go?)

lyrics:
I've been dreaming for so long
and never woke up back to reality
i never thought it could take so long
to learn such a solid morality

Thought i was screaming, nightmares dreaming
and it's time not to hide away
It's time for breathing, 
forget about those golden years so fly away

And then i opened my eyes and realize
that neon lights blinded my side
and it's time to get up my feet again
and regain what's mine and never let it again.

Happy Easter..for sure thank you much...
Easter Thunder Cowboy Rap by songwriter Edwin H. Balder
"The weathervane’s hymn cuts through August haze,
A rusted compass pointing where the old ways graze—
These stalks keep time with granddad’s almanac,
But the soil’s gone quiet, bargaining with tractors’ backtalk."
Daddy taught me debt in the language of crows—
One for the mortgage, two for the rows that won’t grow.
We’d mend fence wire with blistered defiance,
While Momma hummed Psalms to the silent defiance
Of jars lining shelves, peaches bleeding syrup like years,
Her apron pockets heavy with unshed tears.
I’d chart futures in the grain silo’s dust,
Hide from hail storms in its ribcage of rust,
Too young to know iron’s kiss on the tongue
Was prophecy, not poetry, for the unsung.
Oh, the earth keeps a ledger under its nails,
Thunder’s fine print in the drought’s courtroom tales.
We signed our names in pesticide veins,
Let combines rewrite what the almanac claims.
But the crows still bargain, three seeds for a lie—
“Stay hungry,” they croak, “or learn how to fly.”
You came home with contracts and a corporate smile,
Said “Progress tastes sweeter when you starve awhile.”
Momma’s preserves shattered like census records,
Daddy’s fists clenched around phantom harvests.
I found you at dawn by the dry irrigation ditch,
Your shadow a scarecrow stripped of its stitch.
You muttered “Soybeans pay better than ghosts,”
Left your childhood boots as roadside boasts.
Now the mailbox coughs up subpoenas in spring,
The fields a chessboard where pawns eat kings.
I stole midnight’s ink to tally the cost—
What’s lost to rust can’t be sold to frost.
Let the auctioneer chant his heartland’s rant,
I’ll sow wild clover where their concrete can’t.
The crows brought me crowdfunded rain,
Trading viral storms for the right to remain.
I hybridize memories with heirloom grit,
Streamline the plow but let the dandelions commit.
Momma bakes rage into sourdough starters,
Daddy’s ghost debugged the John Deere’s martyrs.
We host agritourists in the barn’s new guise—
Instagram widows paying to romanticize
The “authentic decay” of our hollowed-out home,
While I code drip systems from granddad’s loam.
The crows judge all, but cut me a deal:
“Keep one acre wild, and we’ll kneel to no reel.”
The weathervane’s still singing off-key,
True north buried where the wild chicory
Breaks through the GPS-straightened rows—
A rebel bloom the spreadsheet doesn’t know.
The crows tally interest, but the land’s reply?
“Debt’s just a season… and seasons die.”

Thunder Cowboy Rap by songwriter Edwin H. Balder

🩸 Red Rusted – Clean Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A hand breached through the earth,
Rust and dirt caked on his skin.
Sulfur rising from his bones,
Iron where love should've been.

Eyes black as the midnight skies...
No light, no home inside.

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s here he drags me down,
No chance to scream aloud.
Already inside burning my chest,
Branding his name now Possessed.

[Chorus]
Blood falls...
Dripping down these broken halls...
Fading echoes in my veins...
You pray — but you can't stay.
You pray — but you can't stay free.

[Verse 2]
Feel him burning through my skin,
See his shadow wear my face.
Darkness fills my brittle lungs,
Stealing breath I can't replace.

The vines that once lit up my soul —
They choke and fall away.

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s here he drags me down,
No chance to scream aloud.
Already inside burning my chest,
Branding his name now Possessed.

[Chorus]
Blood falls...
Dripping down these broken halls...
Fading echoes in my veins...
You pray — but you can't stay.
You pray — but you can't stay free.

[Bridge]
A stranger's heartbeat fills my chest...
This isn't me, this isn't real.
No gates, no heaven, no release...
Just gray and broken steel.

When did I die?
Where did he go?
The float I had...
It sunk below.

[Final Chorus]
Blood falls...
Dripping down these broken halls...
No sunlight left to lead my way...
You pray — but you can't stay.
You pray — but you can't stay free.

[Outro]
I stand alone...
I let it go...
I let it go...

🎙️Song Insight
Red Rusted is a cinematic ballad forged in emotional heat — a descent into darkness where pain is etched into skin and memory. Told in theatrical arcs with a raw vocal presence, the track explores the haunting aftermath of betrayal, decay, and the slow erasure of self. What begins as a quiet surrender builds into a storm of blood-soaked echoes, ending with nothing left but steel, shadow, and silence.

RED RUST

"Take You in My Arms" is a passionate pop/rock ballad that plunges into the torment of regret and intense longing for a lost love. The song vividly portrays a mind consumed by thoughts of a single, unforgettable night, driving the narrator to the brink of insanity with absence. It captures the haunting scent of a sweet perfume and the ghost of an embrace, revealing a deep self-reproach for walking away from what now feels like an irreplaceable connection. The chorus is a powerful, desperate plea to reclaim that lost intimacy, promising eternal love and an end to sorrow if only they could be reunited. The narrative delves into the protagonist's dreams, vivid and torturous, highlighting the realization of being a "fool" for abandoning true love. It's a raw confession of self-punishment and a resolute declaration of return, a prince coming back for the love they mistakenly left behind, yearning for a treasure they now understand to be their life's true purpose.

Lyrics
Take You in My Arms

I've had you in my head all day long
Can't stop thinking about you, I need to belong
You're driving me insane, and you're not even here
That one night with you, God, I wish you were here

I cannot believe I walked away and did not go back
I have been going nuts, need you in my arms or I am going to crack
I can still smell your sweet perfume, feel my arms around you
I am going out of my mind, I only want to be with you

[Chorus]
I want to take you in my arms and lie with you
I want to take you in my arms and never be blue
I want to take you in my arms and love you forever
I want to take you in my arms, your love I will treasure

I've been dreaming about you and that night
They are so vivid I wake in a sweat
It is my mind torturing me for being such a fool
How could I walk away, I am such a tool

[Chorus]
I want to take you in my arms and lie with you
I want to take you in my arms and never be blue
I want to take you in my arms and love you forever
I want to take you in my arms, your love I will treasure

I've been waiting all my life to find true love
And what do I do, I walk away from love
I've been punishing myself ever since
I am coming back, I need your love, want to be your prince

[Chorus]
I want to take you in my arms and lie with you
I want to take you in my arms and never be blue
I want to take you in my arms and love you forever
I want to take you in my arms, your love I will treasure

I've been waiting all my life to find true love
And what do I do, I walk away from love
I've been punishing myself ever since
I am coming back, I need your love, want to be your prince

[Chorus]
I want to take you in my arms and lie with you
I want to take you in my arms and never be blue
I want to take you in my arms and love you forever
I want to take you in my arms, your love I will treasure

Take You in My Arms

Take You in My Arms - A Passionate Ballad of Regret, Longing, and Lost Love

In celebration of reaching 500000 streams this week when everyone said i wouldnt get 1000 ? How wrong were they ? 
A song about my legacy to my children and my grandsons 
What’s in a name ? Pictures and memories fade but hopefully my name remains? 

What’s in a Name

talk to me

Italian text translated into English ⬇️

“Chi sa sognare ha la possibilità di vivere in due mondi” 

“Sogni ( straniero é chi…)”

Prigionieri liberi incontrollabili
Parte di mente che scivola via
Alianti invisibili segreti inviolabili
Aerei nel cielo che lasciano scia

Riesco a sentire il profumo dei fiori
Le note i brividi caldi i colori
Toccarli con mano e stringerli forte
Ancora più forte ancora di più

Ed io sono qui con pennelli e colori
La tela è il mio spazio e disegno la vita
Ed io sono qui apparentemente distratto
A catalogare tutte le mie occasioni
I tentativi e le delusioni

Straniero è chi
Straniero è chi
Straniero è chi non sa sognare
Non ha le ali e non sa volare
Apro la porta al mondo dei sogni
Giovani vecchi il mondo di tutti
Apro la porta alla mia fantasia
Ai sogni in attesa la mia allegria
La mia allegria

Come la creta poter modellare
E dargli la forma che abbiamo nel cuore
Toccare con mano poterli sentire
E stringerli forte come un amore

Ed io sono qui invulnerabile
I desideri fanno parte di me
Chiudo gli occhi e mi piace guardare
La vista non toglie i sogni che ho

Sarà sarò
Saranno dentro i miei pensieri
Sarò sarà
Saranno tutti i miei desideri

Straniero è chi
Straniero è chi
Straniero è chi non sa sognare
Non ha le ali e non sa volare
Apro la porta al mondo dei sogni
Giovani vecchi il mondo di tutti
Apro la porta alla mia fantasia
Ai sogni in attesa la mia allegria
La mia allegria la mia allegria.

“Those who know how to dream have the opportunity to live in two worlds”

“Dreams (foreigner is who…)”

Free uncontrollable prisoners
Part of the mind that slips away
Invisible gliders inviolable secrets
Planes in the sky that leave a trail

I can smell the scent of flowers
The notes the warm shivers the colors
Touch them with your hand and hold them tight
Even tighter even more

And I am here with brushes and colors
The canvas is my space and I draw life
And I am here apparently distracted
Cataloguing all my opportunities
The attempts and the disappointments

Foreigner is who
Foreigner is who
Foreigner is who does not know how to dream
Has no wings and does not know how to fly
I open the door to the world of dreams
Young old people the world of everyone
I open the door to my imagination
To the waiting dreams my joy
My joy

Like clay to be able to model
And give it the shape we have in our hearts
Touch with your hand to be able to feel them
And hold them tight like a love

And I am here invulnerable
Desires are part of me
I close my eyes and I like to look
The view does not take away the dreams I have

It will be I will be
They will be inside my thoughts
I will be it will be
They will be all my desires

A stranger is who
A stranger is who
A stranger is who does not know how to dream
He does not have wings and does not know how to fly
I open the door to the world of dreams
Young old people the world of everyone
I open the door to my imagination
To the waiting dreams my joy
My joy my Joyce

SOGNI (straniero é chi…)

The Things We Do for Love is a pop song about the sacrifices and challenges people face in relationships. With catchy melodies and thoughtful lyrics, it highlights both the joy and pain of love. The song captures how far we’re willing to go to keep love alive, despite difficulties.

The things we do for love

Call out for help, got a bit of a problem
Cracking up under my foot begun to leak
I see rust coming through, been here a while
Water is about to flood us out

Find a way to make this right
Find a way to make this right

A tension break, or run aground, getting worse
Keep getting worse since it was found
Pressure seem to continue building
Could be a major break at hand

Find a way to make this right
Find a way to make this right

All hands on deck
We’re taking an ocean of water

Find a way to make this right
Find a way to make this right

All hands on deck
We’re taking an ocean of water

No time for discussion
Let’s get this resolved
There’s always a solution 

Find a way to make this right
Find a way to make this right

Well, today I can't rise out of bed.
Invasive thoughts stuck in my head.
Who gives a fuck if I am dead?
Nobody but me, now, it seems.
So many loves and friendships deceased.

Now, I'll rise up and live again.
For, I've forgotten former friends
and ex-loves that were pretend.
I can, now, let it be.
There's no such thing as defeat unless you retreat.

Let's pick up our bones,
go for a stroll.
Burn through a few cones,
relent control.
Relax and let it happen, baby.
Some pushin' too hard to force this life.
Let the universe show you paradise.
It's magic. Yet, tragic
that so few care about no one but themselves.

I could care less if you are dead.
You already are, inside my head.
Your reasoning, already fled.
You think you're justified
by convincing yourself of 'truths' within lies.

Keep spiraling down those rabbit holes
of YouTube and podcasts to regain control.
It's helping nothing but you alienating 
yourself from a life, organically,
but you're too fuckin' far gone blind to see
that you're trapped in a now blackened world.

What happened to you man?
To you girl?
To you world?
We're so different.

And now I'm trapped within my head.
And all of you out there are dead.

Buy the shit.
Eat the shit.
Every bit.
Feel like shit.
Suck on it, baby.

suck on it 'demo' (with Falsestart)

Good Ol' Boy is a very special song. It was originally written and composed by David Dunham, who dedicated it to a dear friend – a gesture that gives the song even more emotional depth.

When David invited Mike Fox and me to create a new arrangement, we gladly accepted. It was an honor to give his beautiful composition a fresh new sound.

For me, this project was more than just music: it was about friendship, trust, and shared creativity. I first met David and Mike here on SoundCloud – two outstanding musicians, but more importantly, two kind and wonderful human beings. Over time, a true friendship has grown between us, and I’m deeply grateful for that.

I hope you can feel a bit of what makes this song so meaningful to us when you listen.

Lyrics "Good Ol´Boy

He's a good ol' boy with his good ol' toys,
He likes a beer now and then.
He picks a guitar and dreams of going far,
Don't know the how, or the where, or the when.
The boys in the band play as hard as they can.
And they hitch their wagon to the star,
Of this good ol' boy, this good ol' boy.

He keeps house with his wife, the love of his life,
The kids are all grown and gone.
By the gray in his hair you can tell he still cares
'bout the things that are right and wrong.
And the question comes does it get better than this,
A hard days work and a goodnight kiss,
For this good ol' boy, this good ol' boy.

Well it hasn't been easy, no it's never been easy
But he keeps on keepin' on.
And what hasn't killed him he finds a way
To put into a song, 'bout this good ol' boy
This good ol' boy.


He's a good ol' boy with his share of joys,
And his share of the cares of this world.
When it's all said and done, and his race has been run,
And he rests in the arms of the Lord
Of this good ol' boy, this good ol' boy.

What to say about Maximilian?
There are so many things to be told: a lifetime of 24 years, full of special moments, joys, fears, sorrows, worries, hopes, dreams, ups, downs, progress, regress, searching, finding, winning, losing, restlessness, peace...
His life had begun with an extremely difficult birth, almost as if the world didn’t want him. They told us he had a life-threatening infection, there were probably holes in his lungs and he obviously had no kidneys. In total, his chances of surviving were exceedingly slim. However, after endless weeks of both despair and hope, he overcame the infection, the diagnosis of holes in his lungs turned out to be totally wrong and they even discovered a kidney.  Just one maybe but at least it worked perfectly.  His journey into existence had begun.
As he grew, so did the never-ending nightmare of problems, challenges and battles, until we began to wonder what could possibly happen next.  Through it all, Max took every opportunity to accumulate extreme experiences - never hiding, always   seeking.  For that, we loved him even more…and even more it broke our hearts that we couldn’t help him find what he was looking for.
But suddenly, as the Summer of 2011 dawned, his troubles seemed to merely fade away.  Was he just arriving in life, coming of age, finding his place in society?  To be honest, we hadn’t the faintest idea.  But it was abundantly clear that, having always been an underdog, that same unwelcoming world had simply started to like and respect him.  He began to realise his many talents, enjoying his job as never before, finally becoming something he had never been - happy.
Fast forward to the gorgeous Summer evening of June 28th, the eve of a 4-week vacation to which he had been looking forward so very much.  A smile on his face, he said he was in the mood to go jogging, something he loved. Sometimes, he ran and ran for ages.  He’d been gone about 3 hours, quite a long time even for him, so Carina called his phone and he answered, cheerfully telling her not to worry and assuring her he’d be home very soon.  Seconds after the call, out of the blue, he collapsed.  A pulmonary embolism.  They told us he died instantly. 
Max, we have no words for what happened, nor for the eternal gratitude we feel for every single second of your life.  We do know we will never stop loving you.”
(Hans & Carina Albers)

Small chance of survival, words from the first day
Stretching all emotions not a single which way
Asking whys and reasons, a chance to breathe long
Heartbreaking moments, hopes remained strong

Such a short distance, but a life running miles
Bring every sensation, fear to a million smiles
Experience not forgotten, continuous hug of care      
Born with fighting spirit, giving back more to share

24 years of love, no single regret
24 years of love, never to forget

Every challenge building, inner muscles to be felt
Secret ways to be happy, never question hand dealt         
Complication of thinking to find a new sentence 
Pathways to friendships, dreams of acceptance

24 years of love, no single regret
24 years of love, never to forget

A vision full of truth with strength to admire
Finding a hidden talent, past helping to aspire 
No journey of distance could prevent direction
A phone call assurance became last connection

It’s hard to find words, express feelings remaining 
Deep down inside shell, empty, sad, self-complaining 
But we will never forget our boy hero from birth
Brought love and kindness, past and future unblurred

24 years of love, no single regret
24 years of love, will never forget
24 years of love…

Deleted scenes, momentary gods, dreamless sleep
I don’t believe what’s true 
I don’t know what’s true
I just believe what I hear most often
It’s the storm that clears the noise
It’s the storm that clears the noise
But I’m not the storm 
I am the sky
No, I’m not the storm 
I am the sky
Whispers shape worlds
Whispers shape minds
Whispers shape worlds
As the future unwinds
Lonely nights, weary world, hear the cities symphony, 
The more I walk a path the more visible it becomes
But If I don’t change direction, I may end up where I’m going
It’s the storm that clears the noise
But I’m not the storm 
I am the sky
No, I’m not the storm 
I am the sky
It’s the storm that clears the noise
But I’m not the storm 
I am the sky

It's the Storm that Clears the Noise

I hear your laughter, I see your smile
Even though it's been a while
since you waved goodbye to Mother Earth
I can feel your presence, strong and clear

Chorus:
All the good memories of you
Will always be a big part of me
You have a special place in my heart
Makes it beat strong, wherever i go

You are my smiling memory...

You said so many kind words, you were never rude
Even when you had a reason to be
Took care of those who needed a hand
It didn't matter to you, woman or man

Chorus:
All the good memories of you
Will always be a big part of me
You have a special place in my heart
Makes it beat strong, wherever I go

You are my smiling memory..

I look at the sky, and I see you
A dancing light, waving at me
You still bring a smile to my face
And I can feel your presence, strong and clear

Chorus:
All the good memories of you
Will always be a big part of me
You have a special place in my heart
Makes it beat strong, wherever I go

You are my smiling memory...
