Your Mix 4

I hope to someday finish animation I started years ago of flamingos in the rain dancing to this song.

Synth harp, guitars, clarinet, cellos, and bass set to hit hop, conga, and bongo beats at a tango’s pace of 70 bpm. Rain audio recorded live in December 2023.

I wrote an extended version of this track more than a decade ago during a time I was experiencing intense physical pain. As I fled inwardly into creativity to escape, this music narrated the discovery of a quiet harbor from pain.

Later I became amused watching a wildlife documentary of flamingos and their mating dance. As they marched together in step, abruptly turning their heads and beaks known as head flagging to an unknown beat accentuating their synchronized rhythm, I imagined flamingos dancing the tango. Initially I had ambitions to create an animated short with Tango In The Rain as the soundtrack. With time constraints, I leaned more toward the immediacy of digital music-making than animation and discovered pain relief in the process. And as a fan of old movies, this tune evolved into my fantasy score for a different Singin' in the Rain type of musical of animated dancing flamingos.

I hope the music takes you to your own safe harbor, hopefully a place of grace, comfort, and peace. My best wishes to you.

Lost In Space

I went to the movies twice this summer, after not having been there since well before the pandemic. This music came out of that experience, as I was reminded of how much I love the cinema.

This improvisation started out as a holiday song.  "Musings" are my sketch journal like a painter.  Most are complete songs with some interesting twists.  Thank you for listening!

Mystic Wonderland

Godiamoci la vita finché siamo giovani, diceva un noto inno goliardico.
In proposito, credo che l'amore renda giovani in ogni tempo, e, quando l'età è cambiata, aiuti comunque a vivere con ritrovata giovinezza.
E mi piace anche pensare che se c'è l'amore la notte è lontana. 

------ 

La notte è lontana 

Se l'amore è una luce 
Alla fine della notte
È il sapore di un fiore 
Il calore di un sole 

Se l'amore è una nota 
Che può far rumore 
Musica che suona libera 

Baciami 
Dimentica tutto 
Quello che non va 
La notte è lontana
Ma presto o tardi arriverà 

Se l'amore in un sogno
Ha un corpo di donna
Che mi ruba il pudore
Per farmi volare 

E somiglia una nota
Anche se fa rumore
Musica che suona libera 

Baciami 
Dimentica tutto
Quello che non va 
La notte è lontana
Ma presto o tardi arriverà

Rich man, welcome to the club!
Cast of characters:

RIch O'Brien-- @rich-obrien -- composition, intro guitar solo

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– third guitar solo  

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell -- Clave and organ

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, production, and mix

Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–final guitar solo

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–four-string fretless bass and second guitar solo

This song started as a full composition on all instruments by Rich. He asked Josh if he'd be interested in a collaboration with it. Josh jumped at the chance to share it with the Eclectic Collective. So, he invited the gang to join in, replacing most of the original instrumentation, and adding some new. 
     After Ken had added his driving, foundational drums, Josh added his bass to match. JJ soon after cranked up the funk-o-meter by adding his clave and screaming organ. Then, Josh added a guitar solo, which comes in right after Rich's intro. Stephen was up next with his badass licks in the third solo. Then Tez got a hold of it, and ripped a hole in the ether with his guitar in the last solo.
  Ken was generous enough to produce and mix this for us. And what an outstanding job he did, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

I’m not the kind of guy who wants to settle down.
I’m not the kind of guy who wants to stick around.
But when you call my name asking me to come
I run and I run and I run straight back to you.  I run and I run and I run.

I’m trying not to let you carry out your plan.
To turn me into a domesticated man
But when you call my name asking me to come
I run and I run and I run straight back to you.  I run and I run and I run.

I was just another fish swimming in the sea.
The you reeled me in an made a meal of me.
I was a like dog with no home who was running wild all alone
I was living my life wild and free and like animal control you came and captured me.
Now you’ve got you in your shelter and you’re taking good care of me. 
Your passion makes me swelter but sometimes I wanna be free. 

I’ll be your private Casanova tonight.
I’ll do and say all the things that will make you feel just right.
But when you call my name asking me to come
I’ll run and I’ll run, and I’ll run straight back to you.  I’ll run and I’ll run and I’ll run.

This song is scheduled to be included in the new album 'Portraits'.
