Let Me Hear About You In Ambience

A song that was recorded October 2023 that was just sitting in the list of unreleased songs.
I listened and thought this would work as a duet. Noobly agreed so I put it out there to an ex 90s chart star, Soundclouders and artist I know of  but with no success as the vocalists were either to busy with there own projects or some didn’t even reply with a nice no. 
I always ask Nat usually but thought for a change it might be good to work with a different vocalist as I feel I have asked a lot of her recently and didn’t wanna take the piss and for her to feel  obliged.
How wrong was I  because I spoke to Nat and she loved the track .
Her vocals on this are incredible. I’m not exaggerating when I say I was blown away by her delivery.
There is another track on our clouds called Divine Intervention with Nat  in the same style which created a little noise outside of Soundcloud among publishers a few years ago but never really got the credit it deserves. Check it out if you like a duet ballad.
We have asked Nat to do another with us so I want to thank her for the time, commitment, enthusiasm and most of all her amazing vocal range. She is a lovely person with a passion for her talent.
She is such a professional and throws herself into the moment of the song making it special. 
So as before she will always be my first choice again. 

This is a simple young love story under the stars in a tiny festival tent.

Stitch Your Name 

V1
She said words can be beautiful but love is action 
So stop talking now and show me that attraction 
So I poured another glass of wine
I said tonight is the night then we combine
My God your so cheesy but being with you just makes easy 

Chorus 
If it’s on let’s think it 
If it’s on let’s want  it 
If it’s on let’s do it 
The tapestry of natures, embroidery
Stitch your name into my heart
The first letter is always athe start 


V2 
I take that as compliment not treat  it with contempt 
Underneath the stars in a field in  this tiny festival tent 
Listening to the echoes of the weekends  event 
Will stay with us forever and be  always meant 
And I don’t think I’ve ever this felt so content 

Chorus to finish

Stitch Your Name ~ Conscience Of Kings With Nat Daniels

Dear Reader, 

Sometimes when I place my hands on the piano, chords sequences just happen. This was the case with Thickets of Time. I suddenly found myself playing the strange inversions of the first four chords, and then I was off. The rest of the song wrote itself. 

The beautiful delay on the drums was an accident. A happy accident. I love it when that happens. 

This calendar year has had its hills and valleys, and no doubt anyone who has been listening to my music can hear both ends of the geographical spectrum. I don't believe that this song reflects any one moment, but is simply a statement of what it is to be human living in time. 

I hope you find something of value in the song. 

Thanks as always for your continued listening. 

All My Best,

Cast of characters:
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick four-string fretless bass, Roland Phantom 6 synth, vocals, lyrics, arrangement, composition
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ--  Yamaha Genos 2 and Yamaha MoXF8 
synth, organ, electric piano, and vocal harmonies
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – clavinet     
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaser through a VST synth FX device
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–  Gibson Les Paul electric guitar, Fender Acoustasonic acoustic guitar, Gibson Earl Scruggs Mastertone banjo, mix, production, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussion

This song started when as a vague idea Josh came up with while listening to Lionel Richie's All Night Long followed by Michael McDonald's song Sweet Freedom. He wanted to create a song that uses that same basic structure because those are both perfect pop songs in his opinion. He came up with a rough structure on his bass and piano before enlisting the help of his team of musical superheroes. 
  Ken was first up to bat, adding his magical drums and helping Josh find a groove on his bass. Ken later added the hand percussion that adds a spicy drive to the song, too. Next up was Mark, who added the funky clavinet throughout. Stephen threw down after Ken, adding some foundational guitar to the stew. He also added the awesome banjo you hear trickling throughout. Very shortly after, Tez came through with the trippy guitar solo at the end. JJ followed with the breathy organ that lifts the whole thing aloft.
  Now that we had a solid foundation to work with, Josh added the synth "horn" part in the middle, as well as the vocals, including the third harmony part in the choruses. JJ added the fifth harmony part in the choruses soon after. He also added the synth hooks throughout and synth solo at the end. Not stopping there, he also added the electric piano intro, with Ken's drums, and Stephen, who added the electric guitar in that part, as well.
  Now that the whole thing was in the can, it was time for a mix. One of our resident production experts, Stephen, did the honors, as well as the mastering. 
  This is an example of everyone in the Eclectic Collective adding just the right puzzle piece to form the bigger picture. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:

Got a little baggie
Got a tank of gas
Now what I need from you 
Is to light a fire under my ass

Let’s put down our phones
And turn up the tunes
By now you know there’s nothing 
That we can’t get up to

Wherever we go 
That’s where I want to be
Just as long as 
I know I have
You there with me
Because
I’m down for anything x2
And you know that’s true
You know that’s true

Whatever you wanna do
Whatever we get up to 
I’m down for anything
Anything

With you I love to eat
But I never want to sleep
Because I don’t want to miss out 
On spending any time with you

When I hear you laugh
Or get excited with a gasp
You make my heart feel like
I just ran a lap

Let go on a run 
Or figure out some fun
Or jump in the car and drive to where 
The ocean meets the sun

Chorus repeats/Chorus reprise

When you hit me with those eyes
You know you hypnotize me
And just when I think you won’t 
You can still surprise me 

We’ve done it all before
Now let’s go do it all some more
Every day is a reward 
When I feel like I just scored

Down For Anything-Eclectic Collective

We outran a landslide
we know the end so fast
theyre mad cause we’re so high 
you were a wide armed man in times we were moving   
It was a long game plan
kept me a new thing 
All that weight in your breath without a thought, that little edge.
the voices said: echo this, said: on your mark, said:
Get set, get up up up up up up up up…

up (again)

Fantasía En Fa Mayor

Another previously unheard track from 4 years ago. Still in the doldrums here. Sorry for not listening to all your fine music folks.

Two sides of the same coin. A song of two halves,night and day.

I love the end of the day
When the blue sky darkens
And the light fades away
The sky recedes 
And the colour grows thin
The world opens up
To let the universe in

Sharp edges soften
Become almost blurred
Darkness is birthing
A whole different world

Night and Day
