man, instantly one of my faves things I've heard from members of the EC team!  Really love the worldbeat vibe, and the slow build from the start, which caught my attention immediately. Incredible instrumentation, performances, and especially production. Wowzers guys!!!

I've got several authentic sitar sounds on my keyboard, but always love hearing the real thing!

this is waving me up and down and left and right, getting dizzy in a good way without drugs!

Creative excellence and great playing on this engaging track. Superb production and sound. Love it.

As confirmed by witnesses, a few remote places in the world have had ”singing sands”. Grains of sand have made a singing sound when moving and slowly rolling down dune slopes.

This phenomenon does not exist anymore. Due to worldwide pollution no dunes today contain sand which is pure enough to bring forth this kind of sound. 

Another of mankind´s achievements.

IN MEMORY OF THE SINGING SANDS

Délinquant

First off, Yes this mix is pretty long!!!  But, nobody says you have to listen to it all in one go, even if someone listens to just a little bit, is better than nothing!
Secondly, apologies for using tracks that I've used a few times already! The truth is, I'm addicted  😹 the tracks in particular are by DJ Mystery and are classed as House bootlegs, I think they are simply Excellent!
As for the title, I got up for work a few days ago, I sleep on my shitty sofa, even though I have a bedroom, and my sofa is only a two seater, both seats are recliners, anyway, as I put down the right side, I saw a big ass spider run from under the table and disappear under the sofa!  I haven't bothered to look for it, but every now and then, I talk out loud, telling it, everything will be okay, as long as it doesn't surprise me! Lol
When I was a small child, my parents thought it would be funny to scare me with a huge rubber spider called Gladdis, lets just say, I never found it funny, and all they really did, was to give me Arachnophobia!
The Bastards!!!!  Seems like I'm getting better though, baring in mind, I live in England, and our biggest native spiders, The House Spider isn't exactly that large compared to a Tarantula 😹🕷🤣
I've always had a keen eye for cloud faces, and this one is a beauty, I snapped it while at work last week!

Cast of Characters:

Cgmaness – @hiddenhands-760647700 – Chris – beats, acoustic and electric guitar, vocals, composition, and production

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – five string fretless bass, organ, composition, and production editing

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– sitar, composition, and production

This was a seed that Chris came up with on his acoustic guitar, adding beats, and some subtle vocals, then shared with Josh and Stephen. They are always excited to work on Chris' songs, because he always comes up with magical tunes.

  Josh was first in line, adding his five string fretless bass, then the organ part. Stephen used Josh's chord structure to come up with his awe-inspiring, monster electric sitar part. After they both laid down their parts, Chris added the electric guitar you hear at the beginning, too. 
  The song was about twice the current length when Chris made it, but Josh chopped off the second half, as the crescendo fits right into the 2/3 slot now. This was mixed as a team effort in BandLab, too, which is a rarity, given both Stephen and Chris are expert producers. 

  This is an example of a song Chris came up with, that was taken to the next level by Josh and Stephen. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Visage (Lyrics/Paroles)

J'ai aperçu son visage, mais ce n'était qu'un mirage, 
Comme un reflet dans l'orage, une illusion de passage,
Son regard m’a fait naufrage, dans un monde sans rivage,
Où l’amour n’est qu’un langage, perdu dans le vent sauvage.

Elle danse dans mes pensées, comme une ombre sans visage, 
Chaque nuit je veux l’aimer, mais je n’ai que son mirage,
Un soupir, un doux présage, puis le vide en héritage, 
Je poursuis son doux sillage, prisonnier de son image.

Visage

Cast of Characters:

Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition, arrangement, and Fender Jaguar delayed, foundational rhythm guitar
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – Yamaha Genos 2 Synthesizer
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — Tom Anderson custom T model electric giutar, production, mix, and mastering
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaster electric guitar
The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl -- ovation acoustic guitar, vocals, and lyrics

This song began in Artur's jam room at his house, where he creates all of his amazing music on his Fender Jaguar, which is perfect for the surf sound, at which he's a master. He shared it with Josh, who shared it with the group.
  Before Josh could lay down a bass part to it, though, JJ came up with his elegantly moody synth and laid it down. The rhythm section, Josh and Ken, then did their usual dance, dialing it in with some back and forth. Stephen was next in line, adding a subtle duet with Artur's chords. Tez then played the ethereal lead throughout most of it. Stephen, after it was pretty much laid down, came through with the ripping wah solo towards the end.
  Once the music was all taken care of, Carl came up with some great lyrics for it, and sang them, as the newest member of the group. He also laid down an accompanying acoustic rhythm guitar part, too. After Carl did his thing, we turned it over to Stephen for a mix, which he did with his professional skill set.
  This is the latest in a long line of surf rock tunes Artur has shared with Eclectic Collective. If you dig the sound, he has plenty more great ones on his page, which are worth checking out, too. We tried to do this with a little nod to The Police, the band, not the profession. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it. Thanks for listening.
Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Who said we're different
We got our genes and our names
One human mission
Heart fused like fission
Real collective brains

Pure pine for pure
Pleased though holds hands
Reel in one love
Filter for our sands

I feel the same as you
No provocation ever making us blue
I feel the same as you
No provocation ever making us blue

I feel the same as you
Let music train our clue
No place like home we woo
I feel the same as you

I feel the same as you
Let music train our clue
No place like home we woo
I feel the same as you

I Feel The Same As You-Eclectic Collective
