LYRICS: 

Welcome to your entertainment for the evening
We're just here to check that you're still sleeping
Put your headset on, I'm gonna miss you when you're gone;
Where you're going there is no need for thinking...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Blow your mind inside the need for connection
Which is worse, indifference or rejection?
Stare into the screen, keep your mind unclean
Your device is suffering from an infection, yeah, yeah, yeah

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Your leaders won your thoughts and your names
The awakening is rising in your veins
Stare into The Sun
See the darkness run
They all forgot: in this world, Chaos reigns...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

This is The Roaring Twenties, some of us will never leave
This is The Roaring Twenties. And you will see things you cannot
Believe...

Cast of characters:
Tea R. Sea @tea_are_sea -- Terry – Synthesizers, beats, composition, production, and mix
The Mysterious Decibel -- @themysteriousdecibel – MD – First vocals and lyrics 
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–Electric guitar
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Electric guitar, mix, and production 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, lyrics, and vocals at the end
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–five-string fretless bass

This song began with Terry sharing an intriguing Eastern sounding synth and minimal beat with Ken, who added a really solid beat to bring out the strong rhythm of the song. Once they had a solid foundation and skeleton, they shared it with the rest of the Eclectic Collective. I added my five string fretless bass in a dubby line that was inspired by Tez's hot skank part. Then JJ poured his magic into it, too. Stephen came up with the shocking dynamic lift towards the end, and Tez piled on to light it up. 
  Then MD got a hold of it and wrote and sang some of his trademark, fun lyrics and vocals in the first part of the song. Ken, not to be left out of the melodic experience, added the vocals at the end. 
  After we all had everything in the can, the Texas Tea combo of Stephen and Terry produced and mixed the whole thing down. This wasn't their first rodeo mixing a project together, and it really shows in the end quality. They also have several duo projects up on both of their pages that are worth checking out.  
  We think the end result is reminiscent of Massive Attack and Thievery Corporation, two big influences on a few of us. We all hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics by MD:
Time again and on, and on, and on, we fall in slumber
Dreams never wait
Ashes to ashes we all fall down 
Ooooo Circles break
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
When we wake
When we wake
Is this a new Simulation?
When I wake
When I wake

Lyrics by Ken:
Feed the flame or the fire flames out

Coherent Fire (Eclectic Collective with Tea R. Sea)

The first time I saw you
There were Angels over you
The first time I saw you
There was hope, & I saw

Angels in the sky
Over you, & I saw
Meadows in your eyes
Skies of blue, & I saw

Little Devils close behind
Little Devils, little hearts, little minds

The next time I saw you
There were vultures over you
The next time I saw you
It was cold, & I heard

Rumours in the night
Tales of cruel angry mobs
Running through the night
Looking for you, & I thought

Those Devils can’t be far behind
Those little Devils, little hearts, little minds

The last time I saw you
There were gallows over you
The last time I saw you
There was a  rope, & I saw

Angels in the sky
Over you, & I saw
Meadows in your eyes
Your eyes of blue, & I saw

Little Devils close behind
Little Devils, little hearts, little minds

In The Dark

It's been a pleasant challenge to craft Mark's adlibed voice.

Tried finger drumming... moments of 3/4, others 4/4... then I remembered Franco Battiato singing about 7/8 measures in Brittish folk, and... why not?

Similar doubts about the chords, I finally built a sliding harmony using groups of notes found along the vocal line.

Many laboratory hours after I got something friendly; time to jam brainlessly a pair of guitars which made some organic company to the voice.

Great temptation of singing with Mark, but I finished the vocal edition by building a final choir instead ;)

Hope you'll enjoy, and peace be with you all !!

The Parting Glass (with Markjbennett)

Well, there is something I really love…..you know when the weather’s been extremely hot for so long….then it rains with a storm and thunder, the earth releases this incredible smell…love it. So after the storm I came up with this track. It is a bit psychedelic I guess. I just could see myself under the rain and it feels so good…..liberating…well…you know what I mean. Have an awesome summer. Love to all. Copyright protected ©
