Under The Freeway

Cast of characters:

Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition, arrangement, and foundational rhythm guitar

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–guitar, sitar, mix, mastering, and production

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ, electric piano, and synth

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

Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–Guitar 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass 

This song is the brainchild of Artur, who composed it on his guitar perfectly for collaboration, and presented it to us with his vision for the entire sound. Ken went first, of course, adding his signature rocking beat to the song. Josh went next, as soon as Ken had laid down the drums, adding his four string fretless bass sound to fill out the rhythm section. 
  Tez came along soon after, adding some foundational ornamentation with his guitar. JJ jumped in right after Tez, and laid in the majestic organ, riffing electric piano, and subtle synth you hear throughout. Finally, Stephen laid his guitar in there, too, which can be heard as a fiery melodic line running throughout. At Artur's suggestion, he also added some amazing, trippy sitar in a couple of spots, too.
  Once all the tracks were laid down, Stephen came through with his always skillful mix. This makes almost an album worth of material that The Eclectic Collective has created from Artur's ideas. We're always excited when he drops a new one in our laps. He wrote this on a sweet rainy day in the Polish summer. 
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. 
  We all appreciate your support, and encourage you to share this song if you've read the whole way down to the bottom here.

I am a 71 year old man in Minnesota.  I am still trying to get the rest of my music on here.       My YouTube.com is @RichardLOlson.  It has mostly acoustic videos on a Lyrica baby grand piano in the Atrium of North Memorial  Health  Hospital in Robbinsdale, MN where I volunteer twice weekly.  More if loved ones are there.

Now for all of the rest of details with SoundCloud on account settings..

I remember my first MIDI recording was done in Cardiff, Wales on a grand piano in a fancy restaurant near Cardiff Castle.  I have no idea what became of the file.  We stayed at the Angels Hotel opposite the charming Animal Wall of the castle.

I had the experience of virtually becoming a Minnesotan this weekend.  I have lived in Minnesota since the 1970's but have always been teased as an Iowan.  Nobody remembers anymore.  I do.

A commentator stated something about my melodies not being fully developed.  The music he commented was from the turn of the century and not contemporary.  Whatever inspires my improvisation now is more melodic in nature.
