Lazy afternoon (Collab J.J. Terrell & Neno J.)

This orchestral piece began as I was reading "The Ruined Map" by Kobo Abe, but it quickly deviated from its original subject. In the end, it more reflects my fascination with what is _not_ on the maps, all these void spaces which ancient cartographers used to fill with the imaginary dragons. Also, around this time I came across a very interesting band "Polyphia", and was very curious to see how some of their approaches might work in an orchestral setting.

Uncharted

The title is inspired by the world we live in today.  Shackled and tethered to technology, it's difficult to see what's really going on in the world.  A friendly reminder that you should go outside, spend time with your family, and remember to smell the roses.

This song began with a bass part that Jeff came up with and shared with Stephen, who had added some fiery guitar and foundational rhythm guitar to it. However, it languished on his digital shelf for many months as two parts, until he recently remembered that he had it. So, he decided to share it with the rest of the group. We were salivating, all of us, when we heard Jeff's bass line, so we began with Ken laying in the groovy drums and the tight, driving percussion, which propels the entire song. Once we had a beat, we decided to edit the part to include the break you hear about a minute into it. Mark took on that task, and deftly added the bass in that section, too.
Josh was up next, and decided to add a rhythm guitar inspired by Talking Heads. Once he had done that, he started hearing a simple, catchy melody in the main verse part, too, so he came up with some simple lyrics and recorded the vocals for that. At the same time this was happening, Ken also came up with some lyrics and a vocal melody for the breakdown part, which he added. After Ken had added his vocals, Josh added a harmony part on them. He also added the lap slide melody you hear in that section, as well.
JJ was next up to bat, laying in the breathtaking organ throughout. He also backdropped a canvas of synthesizer throughout and put in some electric piano too. Tez came along not long after and added the ripping guitar solo in the jam section. Once everyone had added their parts, it was up to Stephen to produce, mix, and master it. He arranged and added some length to it, then mixed it in his usual expert manner.
This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with Jeff, though Stephen has worked with him in the past, and we were all fans of his music, and thus very excited for the chance to make music with him. Hopefully, this will be the first of many.
We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. If you comment, please share, too.

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:

The trees talk to each other
They send messages through the breeze
There's magic all around us
If we look for it, we can see

Original lyrics by K2 and the Three:

Hey, how you feeling about love and lust
Hey how you feeling about all the lies you trust
We're here to be clear
Just a walk in the dark

A simple Wowlelujah
A simple Halelujah!

Hey!

Wowlelujah (The Eclectic Collective)

The only symbol or Emoji I used before becoming active on social media was the heart and happy face.  I have since expanded my knowledge at least 500%! However, I would rather write or say what I'm feeling, and I don't like the guessing game when texting with others.  BUT, I do have a favorite Emoji, Sparkles!  I love the overarching meaning of celebration, excitement, joy, happiness, love of life, and gratitude.  I also love pairing sparkles with the heart (my second favorite Emoji) to mean a deeper feeling of admiration and love.  When I started to create this piece, the tones and melody sparkled with shimmering magic.  The style of Impressionism is just that! I hope you love the sparkle too!

Incredible

I am a sickly thing burning out for the entertainment of dozens.
Eons ago the gods locked me up in here as punishment for my divine transgressions. 
I've been live recording, digitally producing, & blending both mediums for a long time. 
Thank you for stopping by.
Be safe on your trip.
