So many classic elements assembled in a most appealingly disorienting way. Kind of very focused and a bit inebriated all at once.

Awesome mix and texture guitar, Stephen!! Joseph gave us a cool one!!! 🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏

Hey Stephen man, just heard this on Ken's page. You three really did a wonderful job bringing this into the world. Your playing and mix are superb, as always, brother man. Joseph does a great job with his parts and the vocals, too. Ken adds a great beat, too, as always, and his bass playing is very handy, too. Excellent work here, brother man!

I love those layers of percussion, great rhythm.  That acoustic guitar solo is mint.  I will definitely have to check out more of Joseph's stuff, great work to all involved!

I love the indie rock vibes❣️ Nice recording‼️

Getting echo and bunnyman and nick cave vibes - superb track 😎

Great late night vibe....feel the candle burning down......

Very cool track and collab.  Nice laid back groove.

A tad bit of a hint of David Bowie in these vocals...Earth to Major 'Dom' (Cuz Tom is taken) --Got that extra big, encased charm coming on strong--Which is NICE! ;)  Stephen plays with rhythm until it bends a +hook into a bulging anchor! Enjoying the  mesmerizing drums that beautifully carry this through to the point of complete enrapturement! I'm whisked away to a dreamy daze! Gargantuan THANKS to ALL! Encore! 😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏻🔁🔁🎯

This one was a pleasant surprise.  Ken came at me last week with this track written, performed, arranged and sung by Joseph Shenton, who I didn't know at the time.  I heard it and definitely wanted to be involved, so they were cool on me adding a little rhythm guitar and then doing the mix and production for it.  Ken added the drums and bass. If you don't know Joseph yet, he's got some killer tunes and worth following to check em out! 

Cast of characters:

Joseph Shenton: composition, lyrics, vocals, acoustic guitar, lead guitar, harmonica, piano

Tex Mex Shaman( Stephen Watkins): Rhythm and texture guitars, production mix and master

K2 and the Three( Kenneth Karasek): Drums, bass guitar,  and shakers 

This song began with Ken and Joseph liking each other’s music. Ken invited Joseph to collaborate. He provided such a wonderful song, that maybe sounds better without drums, but we totally dig this version, as well! Ken asked Stephen to add something special, and for a fantastic third party mix down and master! This is the first collaboration with a couple of the Eclectic Collective collaborators.. we hope you all enjoy it!!

One Twist a’Whisper
Lyrics by Joseph Shenton
Music by Joseph Shenton

Bang the drum
Call the ghosts out
It’s ten to one
N’ we’re under looming doubt 

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

The cradle is tilted
Fires breath is getting hot 
Pine needles are falling
Your poised to spill all you got

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

Skin on skin
Check to cheek
You pull apart quiet
To become the object seekers seek

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

Jump the line
Cheat the deck
The 'bound to be foolish' 
Won’t hesitate for even a sec

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight
