The track artwork is the world map beside TBD's studio desk and an art piece by his best friend from 25 years ago. The image is actually a miniturised toy soldier and for us represents perfectly the false realities being thrown at everyone to create that fog of war. It's an American soldier so that too shows the military machine that's actually at play here as all the weapons of this aggression and genocide we are seeing come from across the Atlanic.

May all the people in the area find peace and may the killing stop please 🌍 That's what this blue ball wants!


Lyrics

Too spooky
Real
Melted steel
Such pain
No feel
Not coin finds meal

Genocide
Murder
Hatred brewed further
Extreme
Obscene
No more!

Open the door
'Aid to score
Stand down your army
Come kiss stone of Blarney

Repent now evil Zion
Yourselves you are deceiving as you lie on

Lies upon lies upon lies

Ghosts of Gaza, Leave
Ghosts of Gaza, Please
Ghosts of Gaza, Leave....

Ghosts of Gaza

Ce que l'Homme a cru voir

The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — Ovation guitar, lead vocals, lyrics, and composition

This song began as Carl's tribute poem to our drummer, Ken. Carl came up with the chord progression and started a project, to which he invited the rest of us. This is the third song Eclectic Collective has done that is a tribute by Carl to one of our members.  We couldn't feel more honoured than to be the subjects of his wild and boundless creativity.
  Fittingly, Ken was first in line to add his magnificent drums. Once we had drums, Josh had something to work with to add his bass, which he did shortly after the drums were up. Mark paid the project a visit next, helping out with a bit of production editing, and dropping in a mad percussion solo using his VST timbale drums. Stephen jumped in soon after, adding the melodic electric guitar riffs that appear throughout. Not to be outdone, JJ added some sonically thickening electric piano, as well as the throwback psychedelic synth that pops up towards the end. Finally, Tez came along and added the electrifying solo that appears about a third of the way in, as well as the one at the end. 
  Once the recording was finished, we turned it over to Stephen to mix in his always professional manner. 
  This song is all about our very talented teammate and brother, Ken, and it is well deserved, too. As mentioned, this is the third song from Carl about one of us. It's hard to describe the feeling of having someone who you respect take the time and energy to think about you in such a positive way as to produce a song about you. Then to have all your buddies join in to amplify it to a solid song is just mind-blowing. We are all very grateful to Carl for not only sharing his music with us, but for his thoughtful consideration of each of us as subjects. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

(Original lyrics by The Perfect Dark)
Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture

Rhythmic mountain maestro
Each day, graft, working hard
So kids can eat
Bruised back sees very best of yard

Still, beats get born of evenings
Deep love finds joules to jam
May generation X soothe meaning
Let's teach the younger pussies what we can

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

Karakoram human
You decorate good future
As many lose their Gods
You stand tall as suture
Sticks in hand
Cymbals a floating
Snare and bass backbone gland
Tom'ed Ringo Star man keep quoting
Keep life steady paced by hand

To Ken, from pen, to page, to Music
To friends, Now is when, Good sage soup soothes us
Honest and brave, To Jesus he save
Kudos our maestro of percussive wave

the nature of their being by jeff gardiner 

 ponder and ponder if you wanna
speculations bout meanings and measures and structure
of time and the present
and yet it remains completely unknown
made no dent in the fabric
of monstrous illusion
collusion of unseen forces
nibbling away with whispers
while meekly we, perish, never knowing
what we're feeding
believers believing bleeding rivers of remorse
and of course, the horses don;t ponder for a moment
the nature of their being--

The Nature of their Being-with TexMex Shaman and Mahan💀Mahan

Tuning 440
Timing 4/4 (Changed to 2/4 bar 49 this is to cheat the DAW into not stretching midi vs wav then anything else - delay on the beat achieves the actual step up in tempo after the timing change)

JJ Calls

Praying hands
Whatever cause
Once the greater good not lost
Bored children create their fun
We shelve French horn for this fine one
"Nice one lads" We read it all!
Vacation taken
To JJ calls
Neighbour to good Mickey Moore
Find Michigan piano pure

Down the road city of cars
To Howell front deck
Dad and Guitars
We jam that love then tell the world
Love and service human highway knurled
Good bi-product of happiness sought
With Croatian fun to cloud we court

Terrell Terminator in Jungle
Predator for good
Keys like Mr Bungle
Faith in more like we could
He Thanks you
It's lifestyle
Built from a porch
Good collective friend
Keep lighting that torch

Some moments sealed, marked and moulded
Pure intention
Dark blindfolded
Howl from human to Howell good soul
Keyed keystone as collective role

JJ calls
Darkness falls
Love lit up
Just for us
Love lit up
Just for us
Love lit up
Just for us
JJ calls

JJ Calls - Session 3

Breathy Bells (2025)

This instrumental track, performed by GOLTZ (Gunther Benedict-drums, Christoph Musil-bass, Mario Palaschke-keyboards), is the result of a late-night improvisation over a poem by German writer Christian Morgenstern (1871-1914). 
Cover: Ink drawing by Gunther Benedict

Der Wasseresel

method: all the sounds you hear, apart from the voice, stem from a piano that is more than moderately out of tune, most of them morphed by audacity and samplitude

wunderbar geborgen / copyright jo richter

am wunderstumpfen ende
einer zweispur-einbahnstraße
senkt sich eines planers wendeplatte
zwischen steile bordsteingrate
in deren runden schenkels wölbung
die allerletzte eiderente ein
einzelei ausbrütet - solch memento
prospektiver nostalgie lädt
karrussellgenau zum grübelkreisen
ein, zum rasend innehalten

wunderbar geborgen

Howdy Friends,

This is somewhere to put tunes when other tracks are getting digested 🤘🏽A digestion period is something I never give people so I think it's time to try it. I feel when collaborating with large groups of musicians my routine of daily uploads takes the shine off those shares so this profile was born from wanting to deliver that period but still fullful my desire to share everything as it comes to light. In the short term his will likely lessen my play count which I don't mind because this is about making TBD bigger and more financially successful in the future so experimenting with presentation should be worth it.  I think this should show an evolution to TBD's organic following better and I won't be bombarding everyone with a confusing amount of material like currently happens on the main account.
This also expands my desire to share more detail on the process and teach it more. Because I know I'm not pushing everything to everyone it will feel a bit better sharing thoughts and long jams here and will still be a door open for whoever might want to connect to that. I'll follow back genuine people here but I think I will avoid seeking people out from this page as again that should give a better outline of the reality of my music and how organic it is actually becoming for people and remove a bit of the SoundCloud routine from the mix. All going well I can upgrade this profile to artist pro and maybe endeavour to cover a sub with it and move passed the 120min limit of a free profile. Rock and Real to everyone.

Love ya all,

Carl
