DRUMAX 72 / ELECTRIC STORMS

A smooth Latin Vibe, made from scratch ... all by me with VSTs ... trumpet blown with EWI ...
A bit Santana came to my mind, when I was setting the keyboard groove :-) Enjoy my little easy listening exercise !

This is a love song written about Josh's favorite band, Phish. He came up with the chords on his acoustic guitar, and shared it with the group. This was written with Beck in mind, though, too, as he knew she'd be contributing her magic to this one, too. Even when it was just the acoustic guitar set to a looper beat, she came up with many of the parts you hear throughout. Although, she also readjusted and redid a lot of it, too, throughout the process. Ken was the next piece of the puzzle to jump in. He laid down his perfect drums beats to it in only one or two tries, giving it the groove it needed. After Ken laid down the beat, that allowed Josh to add his bass to the mix, too. It was almost done musically, but it needed a lead guitar, which Josh also put in there. Before it was finished, though, JJ weighed in with his clever organ, which can be heard from about 2:30 on. When it was all wrapped up musically, Josh also sang his lyrics, which are written from the perspective of two Phish heads conversing about the imminent Phish show, which is always a big, exciting event.

Josh has seen almost 70 Phish shows in his life, and he hopes his adoration for the band is evident in this song. This is the second song Eclectic Collective have done with Beck, and we all hope for many more, too. She's a fantastic musician, with a wonderfully deep well of creativity. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:

Are you gonna meet me at the show tonight
Am I gonna see you at the show?
What songs do you think they’ll play tonight?
I’ve been waiting all year to go

You should check out last night’s set list
The show was packed with killer songs
Is there any one that you’ve been chasing?
I love it when the crowd all sings along

Trey’s been stirring up all the great jams
Page rules the keyboards from his throne
Mike digs the groove so deep and he stands
On Fishman’s beats that shake our bones

Hope you have your ticket for the show tonight
I know these days they’re on our phones
At least now about grass there’s no fight
Light a joint on up the hill and feel at home

Some spun wook is always tripping
Looking for profundity in all the songs
Every now and then they have to just stop spinning
Stare at the lights, and sing along

So I know we’ll hear some great things tonight
Every time I go, my mind gets blown
After in the lot I know I’ll eat a grilled cheese,
Suck on a balloon, then drive on home

Lone Wolf

Within the Radiant Glow of a Campfire far from home ,
I am Warmed...
and Relax into the velvety dark beauty of the night ...

My mind floats effortlessly,
Upstream... into the Plethora of Light
that is The Milky Way...
and Within that Current Between The Notes,
i Find mySelf
At Peace...
and Whole.

But far from Dreaming,

And as the primal Rhythms whisper of Wonders beyond the crackling fire,
and Fan the momentum of this moment within the Stillness of this Wondrous Night,
a perspective is painted that I've never seen,
or known before...

and I am Drawn wholy into The Magic of a Cosmic Consciousness.

and Above...
a glittering Treasure Chest of Stars
Spills Light across the Velvet Sky...
and twinkles out a Radiant message to all who behold their Glorious Light,
and Feel within that Resonant thrum,
That Yes!
All is Well in Heaven
and Earth!

And no matter what i think,
that I Am indeed the Music,
for as long as it Plays
Within my L i s t e n i n g loving soul.......

Under Starry Skies  *

First snow yesterday, while I was twiddling around with some (purchased) piano midi files.
This came out as little impression after watching the whitening yard .... :)
Pieter Brueghel the Younger & his painting* came to my mind ... (public domain), wikipedia
*Winter Landscape with a Bird-trap, painting by Pieter Brueghel II, 1630s
My excerpt does not show the bird trap ;-) It is on the right side of the picture, cut off :-)

lyrics by MJ-Brewer

Come on down to Santa's little surf shop baby
He only closes one day a year
He can look at you once look at you twice
Don't really care if you're naughty or nice
As long as you buy from him

Well I remember the first time I met Santa
He sold me my first boogie board
Said he traded his sleigh in Atlanta
And got a hot rod rag top ford

Come on down to Santa's little surf shop baby
He only closes one day a year
He can look at you once look at you twice
Don't really care if you're naughty or nice
As long as you buy from him

Well Santa Claus had to retire
His last gig put a strain on his heart
All of the other reindeer kept crying
Because of Dasher's

Come on down to Santa's little surf shop baby
He only closes one day a year
He can look at you once look at you twice
Don't really care if you're naughty or nice
As long as you buy from him

Ho ho ho
