So Long

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

More synthrock, but this time with a somewhat dirtier sound. All instruments except the drums are created on the Nord Stage 3. Played a little with feedback, as well as changed the attack on the main rhythmic synth live as I was playing. The lyrics are once again a mix of science and emotion using a black hole as a metaphor for a toxic relationship - seems to be a style that works for me.

INFINITE ATTRACTION

I can’t, I can’t break free
Oh no
I can’t, I can’t break free

A fine line pulling on my soul
As close as I could ever get
An unseen stronger than steel
At the point of no return

Light up all of your rockets
Switch on the burners, oh yeah
Let go of all of your emotions
You can spiral to the infinite
The infinite attraction

I can’t, I can't, I can't, I can't break free
I can’t, I can't, I can't, I can't break free

Bounce off a satellite to Houston
Switch on the radio, oh yeah
There’s no time for thinking
You could spiral to the infinite
The infinite attraction

I can’t, I can’t break free
Oh no
I can’t, I can’t break free

The cosmos is dragging me down
Once in there’s no getting out

It’s an infinite attraction
It’s an infinite attraction

Infinite Attraction

The Hidden People Of The Forest

An atmospheric piece of music for guitar, synths, woodwinds and cello.  It starts mysterious and gets more and more emotional as it unfolds.

All Things Are Impermanent

Music : Janne Hennie & Little Man Project
Vocals & lyrics : Janne Hennie

Dear little rainbow boy
What have you done
Why are you hiding
Are you on the run

Did you tell anyone
About purple and red
That you changed your direction
To rainbow boys instead

Did you papa get angry
When you told him the truth
Was your mama upset
Shed tears over you

Did they tell you to stop
Did they say you were wrong
That you put them to shame
So you're all alone now

Did they tell you to stop
Did they say you were wrong
That you put them to shame
So you're all alone now

Dear little rainbow boy
You don't have to hide
You are not alone
I'm on you're side

Take pride in your colors
Let them shine through
There is gold at the end of the rainbow for you..

Take pride in your colors
Let them shine through
There is gold at the end of the rainbow for you...

Rainbow Boy

This song was inspired by a holiday on the coast. It starts in the style of ambient music and slowly turns into a classic piece of electronic music, inspired by the Berlin School

Nothing Ventured

Boy, it's sure weird posting a song that was written for yourself! These gents (including our buddies J.J. & Chris who didn't make it onto this track, but equally deserving of mention) are a fine group of fellers who all come from good families and such, but over time have developed ways about them that just ain't right. Lol, I kid, but they are gems to a man, and I'm surprised, confused, honoured to have them pick on me with their weapon of choice, music. Special thanks to Carl for his boundless generosity and music energy, and for just being Carl in everything he does. 
Thanks boys!!!

The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — acoustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, composition
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson custom T electric guitar, production, mix, mastering
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, Roland organ
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaster electric guitrar, mix, production
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – triangle, backing vocals

This song began when Carl was inspired to write a song about our bandmate, Mark. As you can tell from his lyrics, Carl shares our appreciation & respect for our resident Canadian singer & multi instrumentalist. So, when he had the chords and great vocal track worked out, he recorded them & started a project, to which the rest of Eclectic Collective were invited.
First up to bat was Ken, laying in his always clever, essential beat for the rest of us to work with. Stephen was the next person to lay down a track, which was his essential, but subtle electric rhythm track. Later, after it was almost done, he also added a fiery solo in the first part of the ending section. Josh came along right after Stephen, laying down his signature fretless bass. He also added the organ shortly after, as well. Tez entered the fray next, adding the lightning, Gilmore-esque final solo in the end section.
We considered what to do with this song for a while. The thought was whether to present it to Mark as a gift, or to include him in the mix. We decided to go with the latter, and he added the vocal whoops & hollers towards the end, as well as a bit of triangle.
Once we had it in the bag, we turned it over to Stephen for the production, mix, and mastering, which he always does in a very pro manner.
This is our second of hopefully many songs with Carl. Like the moon, he's everywhere, and he's a damn fine collaborator, too. We hope you enjoy hearing this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Carl also wanted to share this message about Mark, as well.
"This song is written for our Canadian friend Mark. Mark is a pivotal member of the Eclectic Collective who as a band and equally Mark as an individual I'm discovering are phenomenal to work with. I was particularly struck how multiple generations of Mark's family enjoy music and creating together. Thanks for your music man. You really do show a unique approach and I look forward to making more really enjoyable songs like this one with you buddy. In my head lyrically Mark is whoever you focus the love on. Rock and Real!" ----TBD

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

You are the Mark
Mister Lark
Pedigree Bark
Stunning musical stark
Meet Mistermark

From Wonder to Bossa
All from I, 'Spy'
Projecting your best
Proud human melody cry

May 2019
Maybe some fear became esteem
Soft bands in garage channel a way
Internal dreams in sound found light this day

So Dad was a seed
Kudos big man
You do good breed
In music we learn with proper concern
I think now you found Josh the EP

So onto Collective
You expand their perspective
With you and your music
Now Earth gets more fuses
Because of your music
It's a better blue ball
I know I certainly love hearing Marks call

We pressed the remote
We having those jams
Let's get it on and get more brain tan
We singing to clan
Wham bam thank you man
