An older track from my early GarageBand days — a slow, peaceful morning in sound.

Lazy Morning (Demo 2017)

Well, this unusual track started with the rhythm guitar part, and each time I added something it took another left turn into the cosmos (hence the title). I wrote the melody with a synth sound I wasn't planning on keeping until I added a vocal...and suddenly I felt Star Trek theme vibes. (Or maybe SC's own Admiral Krank and His Mighty Spacemen https://soundcloud.com/user-766619428). So I created the layers of vocal harmonies using EastWest Sound's "Voices of Soul" which features midi samples of C.C. White (you're definitely going to be hear more of her on future projects!).  I'm playing all of the guitars, bass, keys/synth, and I cut the drum loops. I hope you enjoy this comic trip into the unknown.

Lyrics :

I chased a Centaur through the night,
In the ancient garden where flowers bite.
Whispers of lavender, sweet incense,
The smell of your mane ignites the trance.

Caught in marmalade, we take flight
I bite the sun, your ejaculation ignites.
The snake’s milk shows a thousand ways,
We painted tentacles in the foggy haze.

(Chorus)
Oh, moonlight confessions,
Dreaming to many dreams,
Floating in the colors,
Life's not what it seems.
Like a planet in a jar,
Your thirst is my desire.
In this vegetal arcadia,
You set my wings on fire.

Like a spider in a labyrinth,
You're the riddle I can't solve.
But in the pulsar, our hearts sync,
In dreams, where we revolve.

I am the butterfly, you, the flower,
Roots intertwined as we devour.
Fragments of moments, lost and found,
In this plan, bliss knows no bounds.

(Chorus)


So drink me, souls  entwined,
In the secret semen,  undefined.
In your scent of cold, I confide,
In moonlight’s glow, we’ll  hide.

This song began more than a year ago, when Josh created a song out of a looper beat with his four string fretless bass. It sat on the shelf until a few weeks ago, when he shared it with JJ, who was in creative mode one Saturday evening. Josh had actually forgotten that he'd added a bass line to it, and thought he was just passing on a looper beat for JJ to play with. 
  However, JJ heard it, and was so excited that added his magical electric piano part, making it sound like a real song, instead of just drums and a bass. Ken also heard some magic in here, because he came up with his own brilliant beat to replace the looper that was used in for the seed. Mark was next to throw in, adding the striking drum pattern breakdown, and the thrilling flute solo, as well. Tez came in shortly after, adding his thrilling guitar to the mix. After everyone had added their parts, Josh came back and added two guitar parts, the simple low end line, as well as the high strumed triads. At this stage, Mark did some editing, as it is in his skill set, and made it less dense and easier to listen to. 
  Now that the song was musically complete, out newest member, Carl, dropped the amazing vocals you hear, singing his original lyrics. After Carl was done sprinkling his magic in it, we needed an able producer to bring out the magic of the recordings. Good thing we have a trained producer to do the job in Stephen, who mixed and mastered it superbly, as always. 
  This is Eclectic Collective's first fore into the afrobeat genre, although a few of us are really big fans already, and Josh has a few other originals in this genre buried on his page, as well. As always, we all enjoyed the process of hearing this one come together. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:Juice our Jah
Chalice of chime
Shooting star
Great rhythm
There's blood in the brine

Suture Sun
Grand heaven high
'Some clan gone cruel
Needing collective eye

Eclectic host
Hoist our hale
Mused healing feast
Musical breeze as gale

Afro beat
Oh melody sweet
Beat afro
Show us where to go

I love Miranda's slow songs the best. This one speaks to me of hope! I know we are all going through the scary times right now and I know none of us want to make light to it, but I love the message here of "I Still see the light" God knows we all want that, to stay hopeful and Maybe the Dear Old Sun will bring with it a lot of healing, and good health for all of us on this crazy but beautiful planet! I love yall and wish us all the very best! ( Pic taken in Beaufort SC )

Dear Old Sun- -I Still See the Light! (Miranda Cover)

VERS CHEZ LES MUTANTS 
À mesure que tout
Se rejoint
Tout se rassemble
En un hic singulier

La nature suit son plan
Iniiale comme perfection
Le flot de connexions
Entre nous
Va coaguler
D'un cran

Déchirer au moins
Quelques vêtements
Noyer le dernier
Chien savant

Au fur et à mesure
Que l'on se rejoint
Des murs vont tomber
Les villes brûler

Un déchirement par en dedans
À présent tu le ressens
Tous les compteurs
Hurlent zéro
Sur ta photographie
Moins une dent

Vers...
Chez les
Mutants
Vers...
Chez les
Mutants
Mutants

Regarde autour de toi
Ce tsunami 
Ne se fera pas
Que des amis

- et vice-versa... (extrait de l'original 2012; in ALT-EGOLUTION)

VERS CHEZ LES MUTANTS

The essence of self-isolation

Distant - too far to Sea

Welcome to my SoundCloud!
Here to make meaningful connections through music.

Peace.

Duke Ellington said there are only two kinds of music, good and bad.  Someday I hope to have my tracks fall to the former category. I figure I have 18 years to play at it. :)
