The sound quality and mastering is just amazing! Have you noticed that when we are in the "last listens" phase, the requests for changes and adjustments has greatly diminished? You're a sound engineer natural brother! And like I was telling Tez, I sent it over to you two first!! I knew where it needed to go before it made its rounds 😎

Great groove. Haunting and cooking all at once!

All JJ .. all the time… all the way through!! He has that@ jazz, as do you, Stephen!! What a cool tune!! Love what everyone contributed! !! Thanks to J2!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏

This is really wild, man.  Great work to all!

Magical Guitars indeed--really like the addition of the more exotic intruments --Never would have guessed that Ken played an Ehru:):)

wow, you all are so solid together, you all greatly impress, time to take the show on the road, fantastic musicianship by all, real creative!!!

the cowbell makes it. all hail the cowbell. this whole thing is freaking amazing.

Dedicated to Kate’s healing, may this hummingbird song assist a speedy recovery. 

At the end of the day, when crickets begin their chorus, a chattering of hummingbirds vie for a last taste of nectar before sleepytime.

A variation on 4-chord construction at 1 4 3 7 intervals, using Trip Hop and Pop beats with acoustic tracks of piano and steel guitar, electric bass, and electronic synth. Very relaxing @ 60 BPM for that meditative creative wavelength in the alpha-theta zone.

FRAWSTAKWA X RiZLiX - Lemme Show You

[CONCEPT]
As part of human nature, fears about an unpredictable future or doubts about past decisions constantly arise in our minds. These emotions can be obstacles when we’re facing challenges in our lives. However, I believe the strength we need to overcome these feelings is already within us: the power of believing in our potential to achieve something great. We don’t need to rely on external sources but simply access our internal driving force. Whenever you find yourself stuck in the mud of fear, I hope this song will serve as a reminder to get back on track.

[LYRICS]
Oh, I can’t explain
But I feel this sensation is real
There’s something inside of me
That keeps me moving forward, now

Life is full of uncertainty
Feeling like I’m walking in the dark
But I don’t wanna get stuck in my fears
Let the hope inside shine my way

When doubts are making noise in my mind
It's time to listen closely to the voice in my heart

Oh, I can’t stop now
'Cause this momentum is so strong
There’s something inside of me
That keeps me moving forward, now

Life is full of ambiguity
Like the horizon when clouds fill the sky
No matter how hard I strive for clarity
Eerie clouds obscure my sight

When I have no clue where I should go
It's time to listen closely to the voice in my heart

Oh, I can’t explain
But I feel this sensation is real
There’s something inside of me—
It’s my driving force
And the energy source
That keeps me moving forward, now

Roots_Spirit Of Departure

This is my rendition of an old, irish folksong. 
My instrumentation:
irish bouzouki
greek bouzouki
acoustic guitar
harmonica
electric bass

Danny Boy - Irish folk song

J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, electric piano, drums, synth sax, synth bass, composition and arrangement 

Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – guitar 

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

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

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – lap steel  

This ripe piece of funk started with JJ essentially composing it on the e. Piano, organ, drums, synth sax, ands synth bass. He had the Eclectic Collective in mind when he did so, though. 

JJ actually is playing his drum kit on this one, so funkily that we decided to keep his drums in there. That didn't leave a whole lot of room for Ken to get in on it, but he managed to add a really cool ehru part. The ehru is a two stringed Asian violin with a distinct high percussive sound. J

J's bass line was so well played and solid, we decided to keep it in there, too, which also left Josh searching for a place in the mix. He decided to go last with the lap slide to anchor the foundation of the blues idiom. But he did that after Stephen and Tez cast their spells on the song with their magical guitars. 

Tez can be heard with the trippy, delay-heavy staccato lines, and Stephen with the silky smooth crying blues lines throughout. 

  Of course, every great song needs a great mixer and producer, and we're lucky enough to have Stephen to do the honors on this one for us.

  This song represents The Eclectic Collective at our funky finest, and we always enjoy and appreciate when JJ starts a song for us. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. 

  If you really dig it, and have read the whole way to the bottom, please consider sharing this, too. We all appreciate your ears and support.

A short instrumental section for a pretentious long song I've just started on - hopefully it will work in context  🤪... it's fair to say I struggled with the fingerpicking - needs work 😬

Oh Thou Forsaken (demo)

Smile (Charlie Chaplin Cover)

Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
It's based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job
So I wanna be a paperback writer


It's a dirty story of a dirty man
And his clinging wife doesn't understand
His son is working for the Daily Mail
It's a steady job
But he wants to be a paperback writer
Paperback writer


If you really like it you can have the rights
It could make a million for you overnight
If you must return it you can send it here
But I need a break
And I wanna be a paperback writer
Paperback writer
