Cast of characters:
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Telecaster electric guitar, mix, production, and composition
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – synthesizer, vocals, and lyrics
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four string bass
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson cutom T electric guitar, sometimes with an ebow
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ and synth

This song began as an idea Tez came up with on his guitar while on holiday not far from his home in Wales. It had such a solid form, it inspired Mark to write lyrics and come up with vocal melodies within a few days of hearing it for the first time. The two of them have written several songs like this, making them a solid songwriting source for Eclectic Collective. 
  Once the song had a even more solid form, Ken took added his dynamic, bouncy-groove drums to it. As soon as Ken had the drums down, Josh took his turn, adding the fretless bass and solidifying the groove. Now that the basic framework was done, Stephen added his thrilling electric guitar. Last, but certainly not least, JJ added his dancing organ and the really cool, psych synth lead part in the bridge towards the end. Mark also added some awesome backing synth to it, as well, filling out the sound. At the very end of the process, Tez also dropped in the hot intro and outro solos, as well.
  Once we had it all in the can, it was time to turn it over to Tez for his expert production and mix. He came up with the idea of adding reverb to the drums, as well as some other compression tricks, which he employed with subtle style. 
   This, as mentioned, is a great example of what Eclectic Collective can do in house with the composition and songwriting skills of Tez and Mark. The rest of us really had fun working on this one, too, of course. We hope you enjoy listenig to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Original lyrics by mistermark:

There’s something I’m seeking that I’ve never found
but the seed that you planted went deep in the ground 
there’s a journey that I’m on and the path is uncertain 
the magic fades when you pull back the curtain 

Wherever you go I will follow
there’s always another tomorrow 

There will never come a time when I do you harm
cause my soul is steady when I’m in your arms
and never have I heard music like your Voice 
when you call me to you I have no choice

Wherever you go I will follow
there’s always another tomorrow 

Like a puzzle on the table all the pieces fit
like I’m standing in the dark and a match is lit 
and what it all means man I just don’t know
but it’s a powerful feeling and it’s starting to grow

Wherever you go I will follow
there’s always another tomorrow

Wherever U Go-Eclectic Collective

Spirits Are Dancing (2025) Remastered

on your mark

get ready to

cannonball

into the blue



after swimming

sparkle all around you

catch the sound

breakers breaking



stop the boat

get ready to

pick a spot

to slip into



after swimming

as the sunlight bakes you

summer sips

on a sand dune



after swimming

after swimming

come swimming

You don't need a map to find paradise

Amusing Dates - Improvised Piano Piece

played about with this a lot - again shifted to minor key helped with the spooky vibe - tweaked the words here and there - boom - murder ballad Enjoy 

Well, he walked up to me and he asked me if I wanted to dance
He looked kind of strange  I was lonely so I thought take a chance
When we danced, he held me tight
when he walked me home that night
All the stars were shining bright and then he kissed me
Each time I saw him, he couldn’t wait to see me again
I started to see he thought that I was more than a friend
I didn't know just what to do
When he whispered, "I love you"
I just whispered I love you too, and then he kissed me
He kissed me in a way like he’d never been kissed before
He kissed me in a way like he wanted to eat my soul 
He kept me filled with wine so I gave him all the love that I had
one day, he took me home to meet his mom and hisdad 
As we stood at the grave side 
He told me I would be his bride 
He wiped the last tear from my eye and then he kissed me
Then he told me i was his bride
Forever lie right by his side
He looked so happy as he watched me die
then he kissed me
then he kissed me
then he kissed me

then he kissed me (Crystals cover)

Who Would God Assassinate First?

The tires roll soft on a road unnamed 
A hymn drifts out from a far-off band 
We whisper the words like a secret prayer 
And we follow the night with an open hand 

And we lean into the silence
When the static casts a spell 
We search all the channels 
When the station says farewell
Somewhere by the Nowhere Motel

The lights go red in the rearview glass
A gas pump lit up like a chapel sign
We pass it by like dreams we’ve had
Still whispering into the night

And we lean into the silence 
When the static casts a spell 
We search all the channels 
When the station says farewell
Somewhere by the Nowhere Motel

A voice on the dial says the war is done
But she keeps her coat wrapped so tight
We drive through towns forget their names
As they slowly fade out of sight

And we lean into the silence
When the static casts a spell 
We search all the channels 
When the station says farewell
Somewhere by the Nowhere Motel
Somewhere by the Nowhere Motel

Thank You, and Thank You for the Forgiveness We Hope For

Verse 1
Yes, we bicycled without helmets and climbed high trees,
Playing all day outside in the warm breeze.
The time was ticking, we weren’t aware,
’Cause adventure was waiting everywhere.

Verse 2
We came home for dinner, then out to play again,
The times were different, no one worried then.
No phones, no screens, just the open sky,
We lived our freedom, the days rolled by.

Chorus
The children from a century that has passed,
But memories from lost time still last.
We’ve all grown up, and the years have flown fast,
The children from a century, gone too fast.

Verse 3
Barefoot summers on the dusty street,
Every corner was a place to meet.
We chased the sun until it turned to gold,
Memories burning, never getting old.

Bridge
From dawn to night, we didn’t need to fight,
The times were good, no scare, no fright.
No need to worry, no heavy care,
Just living free, unaware.

Chorus
The children from a century that has passed,
But memories from lost time still last.
We’ve all grown up, and the years have flown fast,
The children from a century, gone too fast.

Final Chorus
The children from a century that has passed,
But memories from lost time still last.
We’ve all grown up, and the years have flown fast,
The children from a century, gone too 

The children from a century
