Album: Singularity

Polar Vortex - Simtronix 12" Mix

Legion

Whiteout

Noisy Night Wings

Taxi-Bar, c’est l’errance d’une femme qui cherche à oublier l’absence dans les bras d’un inconnu. Paris devient le théâtre d’un triangle fragile entre le passé, le désir et le vide. Entre un taxi mouillé de souvenirs et un bar où les regards s’échangent sans promesse, elle tente d’éteindre la douleur… mais même les anges sont tristes. Une confession nocturne, lucide et désenchantée.

Taxi-Bar

Music : Janne Hennie & Little Man
Vocals & lyrics : Janne Hennie

I make a lot of songs to express what's on my mind
And sometimes the lyrics can be dark
But when I think of all the good people in my life
My lyrics are made with a smile...

2:
Sometimes life can get very challenging and tough
And problems can come in a row
But when I think of all the good people in my life
My tears are replaced with a smile...

Chorus:
Even if it's raining and the car won't start
I can always find a reason to laugh
When I think of all the good people in my life
I can handle the problems with a smile!

3:
On a rainy day I will remind myself
That I am a lucky girl anyway
Cause when I think of all the good people in my life
I have every reason to smile...

Chorus:
Even if it's raining and the car won't start
I can always find a reason to laugh
When I think of all the good people in my life
I can handle the problems with a smile!

Chorus:
Even if it's raining and the car won't start
I can always find a reason to laugh
When I think of all the good people in my life
I can handle the problems with a smile! :)

The Good People In My Life

I used my favorite vocal sample pack “RAGGA_VOCALS_RAGGA_TWINS”. This sample is difficult to put on the track, but if you get it right, it gives a very RAGGA feel to the track.
I didn't put too many rests in the bass, because I was conscious of the momentum and the sense of speed.
As a result, I like this atmosphere.

Another example of a previously uploaded song where I'm just isolating one instrument in the mix, this time the vocal track, with a bit of organ backing. Just some fun hootin' & hollerin' in the closing chorus section. And here's a link to the full song with the details, which is still probably one of my top two or three fave things I've recorded.

Pick Me Up (ISOLATED vocal chorus)

Dear Collective

CAST OF CHARACTERS:
The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — VST orchestration, vocals, lyrics, and composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums, percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, Fender Precison four-string fretted bass, and Roland Phantom synthesizer
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson Custom T model electric guitar
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – VST string arrangement
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaster electric guitar, mix, and production

This song began as a musical letter written, composed, and sung by Carl to Eclectic Collective. We'd been sniffing around each other's pages, admiring each other's work and collaborators. So Carl reached out with this friendly, uplifting song, as a gift to the band. 
Ken was first in line, adding his awesome, driving drums to give us a heartbeat to build upon. Josh came along next and completed the rhythm section with his trusty four-string fretless bass. Stephen was next up to bat, adding his dynamic raspy guitar, which almost sounds like an electrified fiddle. Next up, Mark added the tasteful VST strings arrangement in the second half of Carl's original composition. 
We had it pretty much sounding done, but wanted to spice it up a bit, so we came up with the idea for a coda. Josh added his bass and synth in the closing section, and Tez came up with the thrilling guitar part, as well. Tez also added the thrilling guitar intro, too. 
Once it was in the can, we asked Tez to mix and produce it for us, which he did in his always expert fashion.
This is the first song EC has done with Carl, but we know it won't be the last. We all admire him for his creativity, proficiency, and prolificacy. His page is worth a stroll, too, as it contains a lot of gems.
Thanks again Carl for the wonderful tribute! And as always, we hope folks enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark: 

Hey Collective Seeds,

Let's work things out across that water
There's a cable under sea,
We can send all sorts of...
Music/Words/Sounds - It's insane!
Look Lads,
That's life in the fast lane!

So it's ones and zeros
Mine and yours and theirs
We are all heroes...

Watching the fire,
From a distance we're warm
But not from their mire,
From this musical charm.
It's a bonfire,
An inferno.
Earth got plenty to turn off...

So we can sing to love
And we can play for more dove.
Let's combine our powers. Collective!
A Paddy/Yankee toasted sandwich

Tez festival streak
Psyched for more free
K2 to peak
Mistermark chimes ' found life fought
Give, You Entheogenic Psychonaught
Collective lands
Psyched for more free

Dear Collective (Eclectic Collective / The Beautiful Dark)

"I Just Can't Live Without You" (Instrumental)

First of all, I would like to wish a happy springtime to all of my fantastic friends here on SoundCloud!  

Without further ado, here is the full instrumental version of a short demo song I made on September 5, 2024. Originally this tune came to me when thinking about the chords and progressions in my earlier song "Peace".

This song was made, played and recorded by me as MIDI and with e.g. the following instruments and sounds: Yamaha Montage 8 (TX816 Electric Piano), Spectrasonics Keyscape (Roland MKS-20 EP sound), Arturia Jup-8 V (Horns), Arturia Synthx V, UVI Ultramini & Arturia Mini-V (Minimoog bass sound), Arturia JUN-6V (the "55 Pop Corn" sound, cf. Juno-6 Synthesizer), Native Instruments Session Guitarist - Electric Mint; and other sounds from the UVI SonicPass VST library including UVI PX Memories (cf. Memorymoog mod), UV-XXX (from the UVI "OB Legacy", horns & the brass sound), UVX-10P (cf. Roland JX-10, the flute sound) and Marcato Strings (from UVI Emulation II). The drums come from Native Instruments Abbey Roads 1980s Drummer, layered with the fantastic Simmons SDS 5 style kick & snare drums from UVI Beatbox Anthology 2.  

Recorded, edited and mixed in Cubase Pro 14, with some significant help from iZotope Neutron. Mastered in Cubase Pro with Ozone 11.


I'm certainly not a lyricist but I got some help with the lyrics! And the idea was that the lyrics would go something like this:


VERSE 

My life is good 
having you by my side
We face the future together
The years roll by
... 
It wouldn’t be the same without you
... 


CHORUS 

I just thought that you should know
I never wanna let you go...
... love you so
I just thought that you should know 
I never wanna let you go
... I just can’t live without you


I Just Can't Live Without You

I flaunted my flagrance
Like it was a fragrance 
And formed my authoritive ways
I wandered a vagrant 
Within my displacement 
Got lost in a formative haze
Replaced as a face
Of embracing your stain 
And abstaining from regaining 
Trust you betrayed
A storm of enormous proportion is forming 
With words from my stressing and weaponized brain 

Learn lessons 
While testing 
Your respect 
In question 
And misapprehension 
Of all your descension
A mindful possession 
Of a rhyming obsession 
I time my accession 
To the time I get mentioned 
Im holding my tongue 
And my feelings are idle 
Societal denial 
Is why im your idol 
Defile the bile 
That twisted each mile 
Of road that you chose 
To take every trial 

I knew I was foolish 
To trust you in prudence 
In fuelling confusion your Petulance brewing 
Your lesson in screwing
Will lessen the bruising 
The stress you produce 
Is best thing I’m loosing 
Say lines I’ve heard nine ways and 9 times fine 

I’m twisting and turning 
And missing you hurting 
Turned into a victim 
Of hatred and yearning 
While making my way 
Through the pain that is churning 
And having oncerns 
For your fucking discernment 

Your lies bind knives into the depths my spine 

I’m the culmination of your desecration 
Im the hesitation in your readied  patience  
Im the ink that flows from the pen to the paper 
Im bad behaviour when your acts failure 
This shit is tailored for my derailment 
And my enslavement to all your statements 
Your blatant blaming and finger shaming 
Will shed the light on all the hating

Words

I have a mind and soul that uses music as an extension to express itself.  I'll find the right keys or chords or just catch a vibe and things happen. I mix it down into a sonic symphony for my ear drums and a visceral voyage for the soul. It might not sound like what's on the radio or anything like your favorite band but I'm not trying to. I simply do what It is I can do best. I do me. Simple. Authentic. Raw. 

My sound is a mix of rock and electronic elements. I've been influenced by many types of music and you'll hear it all blend together nicely if I'm hitting my mark proper. My production methods are a mix of Ableton, my guitar, my midi keyboard, and my mind. Basic, but enough to do some damage.

Bon Appetite  \m/
