My Immortal ft. Moe Howard

An experiment in solemn ambience. All hardware.

Psychic Cosmology

A song about the person who inspires you to be created and you admire in everyway and that’s why She Is My Muse. 
This track as blended indie electro pop with old school rap. The Conscience of Kings project allows us to experiment with so many different concepts and have great fun doing it. 
This is a completely three way collaboration with Noobly taking care of the instrumental and production/producing, me vocals/ lyrics and Sdot rapping to his own lyrics also. 
The featured rapper Sdot is a young midlands talent that as been praised by many established rap artists for his live performances and YouTube music videos.
If this is your thing then you can watch his music videos on YouTube and catch him on all major streaming services simply type in Sdot. Really worth a listen and watch. 
It’s a totally different territory to any other collaboration we have done before. 
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did creating it .

'Tamandua Feast' is an ambient track following on from the evacuation from my raised beds of the ant colony which had set up home there and munching my veggies. Escaping from a dreching in Peppermint oil, which they hate, they are now faced with an anteater called a Tamandua. This sitution arises from the title, which was suggested by our good friend and SC colleague, José F Castro https://soundcloud.com/jfcpetruscastrus.

The Smoking Trout collaborative is back with another installment in the story of the Quest for the Holy Dumpling! On this one Jeff, Uziel, Terry and I are joined by Tot for the first time. He sent us an awesome beat to serve as the rhythmic backbone to this new song. 
Then I funkified it with the bass and guitar, Uziel gave a stellar performance on vocals with some original lyrics, and Jeff and Terry contributed just the right amount of weirdness. Terry also did an incredible job with editing this all together during the production phase!   Hope you will enjoy!

Lyrics:

All those normal little things... pass us by, pass ussssssss
mirage of migrant, trucks full of food tiny boutiques nose up looking down
street dancers, performers, the arts little stalls selling fruit

and the bus tumbles through

HOWEVER GUS, You remember Gus? The driver of this bus...
Regretfully informs us that our engine food is at the edge of E, and the only thing we'll be running on soon is fumes

And as we approach, We can hear
A dusty massive heart beating city industry eldritch being and foreboding
Sitting atop his sky scrapers gloating
"Hungry enough yet?" It's beastly maw cries! "It's 10 for 5 and the price only went up 6.7%
Nothing to you, you're worker bees and you can make more honey, can't you?"

While yes that's true
We are the life blood that flow through
But people like me and you
Can't afford it

Fortune cookie flavor our journey
It's the last I got
I'm looking for the old woman
The gate keeper to the other side
Where we have the wholly divide
Away from this hellish relish
And Instead:
Dumpling soup, dumpling plump, fried in foie gras butter perhaps?
Holy condiment burns through fiery on your Thai chili adjusted tongue,

BUT THAT'S JUST ME! It tastes different for everyone

"OH, I can't help it!

We are all starving, the bus is outta' gas, and spewing smoke, Gus is cussing up a storm, Roberta's lighting up her last swiff... I think Larry's getting water?... but we're all outta food"
said Jimmy to Sally and Stu

All digging through our pockets to get the last crumb or two
Looking forward to what we have to share
But it looks like
It's not a lot

Dumpling Stew (Smoking Trout's HOLY DUMPLING #6)w/ Uziel, Stonerjazz, Tea R. Sea & Tot

This is a song that JJ came up with on the electric piano and shared with the rest of us. He's done a significant portion of the songwriting for the Eclectic Collective, and always gives us quality songs, to which are easy to add our voices. When he sent it to us, he had a rough bass on there that sounded like Lust for Life. Ken came up with a killer and appropriate beat, which, if you can picture Lust For Life, included a lot of accentuated bass kicks. So, Josh took and went with that, and came up with a funky bass line. Ken and he kicked it back and forth a few times till they linked up. Then JJ added some funky ass organ and trippy retro synth to spice it up.
  Then it was time to send it to the guitarist. Tez laid down some smoking lead solos throughout, with his signature fiery guitar tone and amazing licks. Then Stephen funked it up even more with a fonky-ass wah guitar track. 
  Ken produced and mixed this one for us, and what an excellent job he did, too. This was so much fun to create. We all hope you enjoy listening to our jam as much as we did playing it.

lyrics:
Ramona? is this what u really wanna?
Is this the life you have always dreamed of?
Listen your heart and go on!

Ramona? you gotta fight for what u really wanna
maybe you're the new madona
a mother, an actor in "Lavapies"

You don't need to get scared, don't be afraid you're almost there
these bright lights, the diamonds on your dress

Forget the past and make it last, we are getting old you gotta move fast
the whole universe is almost on your feet

Lyrics and Music: James Toburen

In Blackmoor's quiet grace,
Tess, a flower in the open space.
Dreams like winds across the moor,
A shepherd's daughter, love to explore.

Tess, in shadows deep,
A tale of love, a soul to keep.
Durbevilles' daughter fair,
In tragedy's embrace, unaware.

Marlott's fields, a world so small,
Tess, heeding destiny's call.
Durbevilles' door, a fateful night,
In noble disguise, love took flight.

Tess, in shadows deep,
A tale of love, a soul to keep.
Durbevilles' daughter fair,
In tragedy's embrace, unaware.

Through fields of gold, she roamed,
A fleeting love, a heart disowned.
Stonehenge whispers ancient lore,
Tess, entangled, forevermore.

Angel's love, pure and fair,
Secrets unveiled, a heavy air.
Past shadows linger, a haunting song,
Tess, in sorrow, she did belong.

Tess, in shadows deep,
A tale of love, a soul to keep.
Durbevilles' daughter fair,
In tragedy's embrace, unaware.

Stonehenge's shadows, a sacred ground,
Tess sought solace, fate unbound.
Gallows' shadow, a solemn stand,
Society's falsehood, destiny's hand.

Tess, in shadows deep,
A tale of love, a soul to keep.
Durbevilles' daughter fair,
In tragedy's embrace, unaware.

In Tragedy's Embrace, Unaware

In Tragedy’s Embrace, Unaware
