Well.. shucks.. forgot amazing praise for a phenomenal mix, Stephen! Haven’t had time to answer on my page.. prefer telling peeps on their pages, Yes! Most excellent! People are loving this! Great mix, brother! 💯💯💯🕺🏼🕺🏼🕺🏼🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🏆🏆🏆

A discovery for me, thank you, friends. 🙏

insanely awesome music here man. Love some of the decisions you made on the mix (e.g. the open  airy tone on the drums). The guys really let loose here and sound like you did a fine job of keeping it all together with space to move around. Brilliant stuff guys. Love this kinda music.

mistermark discribed perfect how the open airy tone made the sound magical!

I love the guitars an the the bass clocking with the drums

Cast of Characters: 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, Paul Reed Smith semi hollow body electric Guitar 

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

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ and triangle (triangle of love)

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — production, mix, and mastering

This song, in case you're not familiar, was written by Medeski, Martin, and Wood with guitarist John Scofield, and performed by them on an album eponymously named A Go Go. Josh has always been a huge fan of both MMW and J.S., and has always wanted to play more of their music, as he used to cover a couple of their songs in one of his main old bands. 

  Josh laid down the bass and after going back an forth a couple of times with Ken and his thrilling drums, they established the rhythm section. Soon after, Josh added his jazzy guitar, as well. We needed someone to play John Medeski's part, too, of course. So, we asked JJ if he'd do the honors, which he did in grand fashion. He also added some triangle hits you can listen for, that add a little bit more pizzaz to the whole thing. 

  Once it was all laid down, we needed a good mix, and no one is gooder than Stephen, so we asked him to mix it for us, which he did in his always pro manner. 

  This was a lot of fun to record, and we hope that comes through. This is a stripped down Eclectic Collective collab, where most of what we're all doing is improv. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.
