Done in the style of one of my all time favourite old bands, Pink Floyd.

Out of the Darkness

We all like to wreck our own tone from time to time!
Here my wrecker of choice is ye olde Kaoss pad, manipulated while playing the guitar in real time.
Guitar used was the red Vibracel single pickup guitar in cover pic. Bass was a Yamaha 5 string.

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

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

The Bridge is the final installment in an instrumental trilogy I've entitled Wilderness Wanderings. Life can certainly take mysterious turns and take us to very dark places, and God knows I have been down those roads! However, after the darkness comes light, and after the despair, hope! This is a musical expression of that hope and redemption... the bridge to life, which firmly stands, between the far spent night, and the promised land! (Note: I previously released this piece as a standalone, but wanted to include it in this collection. The piano has been revamped and remixed from the previous version)
