Lost Taxi Driver

This drone/ambient track was a live guitar recording, but of course I couldn't resist to start editing, reworking, embellishing, throwing stuff out. Mostly played through my Boss ME70, and recorded and edited in Reaper. 

The demo version of the album is here on soundcloud as well, it's called A Great Collection of Drone songs (yes - Pink Floyd reference).

'ex-love' 

I'm such a fuckin' fool
to have fallen for you.
You act like everything is cool,
but your words don't match what you do. 

I caught you in the act.
And how did you react?
You placed the blame right back
on me. Claimed I used the key misappropriately. 

But you're the liar and the cheat, ex-love.
So, why the fuck did you give me a key, ex-love?
If you knew you're gonna fuckin' cheat on me, ex-love?
Then turn it around, place the blame upon me, ex-love.

We're through.
Because of you.
Not me.

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
