This song began its life in Poland, where our resident surf rock specialist, Artur, composed it on his guitar. He is a brilliant composer and expert player, so we're always glad to receive music from him. 

  Artur gave it to JJ to start the project, so JJ was first to the trough here, adding his breathy, moving organ throughout, as well as some slick envelope synth. Ken came along shortly after to give the song its heartbeat, adding his triumphant drums. As soon as he had a beat to play to, Josh added his four string fretless bass to the mix, completing the rhythm section. 

  Now it was the other guitarists turn to take a whack at it. Tez was first up, adding the magical the first and third solos, in the verse sections. He also lit up the intro and outro sections with some dynamic guitar solos, as well. Stephen went last, filling in the second and fourth solo sections in the choruses, as well as a textural guitar that you hear throught most of the song. He also added the exotic sitar you hear in about the middle. After all the music was laid down, Artur had the idea to add the vocal chorus towards the end, which Josh and JJ sung in four part harmony.

 Once we had it in the bag, we asked Stephen to produce it for us, which he did in his always trained, professional manner. 

  This is the eighth song we've done with Artur over the past about year and a half. We adore his music and him as a person, too. If you dig this song, you should hop over to his page and have a listen in case you're not already familiar. 

He loves surf music, and wanted to note the passing of surf rock legend, Brian Wilson this week. Wilson was more than just Pet Sounds, although that album is top class. He was a surf rock pioneer, who influenced a whole genre of music; a genre that's near and dear to Artur's heart. 

  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Surfers Like Us:

We all live between Sun and Moon
Love and Peace
That's all what we do

Between Sun and Moon - Eclectic Collective w/ Artur from Surfers Like Us

lyrics

Don't think I like it
But I breathe it
Don't think I like it
But I have to be it

I retreat, I retreat
I retreat, I retreat

But I breathe it
I have to be it
I retreat, I retreat

Sometimes I feel ok
But not today
Sometimes I feel ok
But I'm made of clay

I retreat, I retreat
I retreat, I retreat
I retreat, I retreat
I retreat, I retreat
I retreat, I retreat

NEMO SALTAT 2

I got a vocoder! I put it to its first use on my version of one of my favorite Pet Shop Boys songs. I was ambitious, and may have over done it, but it sure was fun!
