The tracks operate as studies in unresolved repetition: the groove never explodes — it tightens, trapping the listener in a loop.
Every element undergoes a selection process before being allowed to exist; nothing is ornamental.
The structure is skeletal: dry percussion, micro-variations, and negative space charged with tension.
This is sound built at the threshold between the organic and the mechanical, where precision holds more weight than excess. The driving force of the music isn’t progression, but suspension — the constant possibility of something about to happen that never does.
Slow Distillation.

Eclecticism was first reported to have been practiced by a group of ancient Greek and Roman philosophers who attached themselves to no real system, but selected from existing philosophical beliefs those doctrines that seemed most reasonable to them. Out of this collected material they constructed their new system of philosophy.  The term eclecticism comes from the Greek ἐκλεκτικός (eklektikos), literally "choosing the best".  Colloquy is defined as a gathering for discussion.  

The music of "Eklektikos" brings together the instruments and rhythms of many diverse cultures to create a unique world music.

For Tuned Water drums, Alpine Zither, Shakuhachi, Darbuka, Koto, Morin Khuur, Rako Bowls, strings, flute and percusssion

Eklektikos - The Colloquy

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

When I was in 10th grade I asked my Belgian Spanish Teacher (Ms. Van Stichel) why the Spanish word “esperar” was used for both waiting and hoping. Maybe a sophomoric question (excuse the pun), but her answer has stuck with me through the years. She said “to wait is to hope”, and how right she was. 

I HOPE

I hope there’ll be a new beginning
I hope to tell right from wrong
I hope you get what you want
I wait, and I hope

I hope all manner of sins will be forgiven
I hope, I hope for my better angels
I hope, I hope for a wide open door
I hope, I hope you feel the same way
I hope we’ve got a lot left to live
I hope I’ve got a lot left to give

I hope you get what you want
I wait, and I hope

I hope to make a change for the better
I hope, I hope there is another way
I hope we can see it all clearly
I hope, I can open up inside
I hope we can find the time
I hope we can find a rhyme

I hope there’ll be a new beginning
I hope to tell right from wrong
I hope you get what you want
I wait, and I hope

I Hope

A long time ago, we created this song in collaboration with our friend Reverence. It was originally released on Bandcamp as part of Doc Torthis' album, Sounds For Sore Ears Vol. 1, the proceeds of which were meant to help him offset the costs of running his independent radio station, Dólfinngr Radio. Dólfinngr Radio is now gone, but the song lived on, thanks mostly to Eddie Shook kindly playing it on his biweekly show, Anything Goes. It's been through several revisions over the years, and we thought it might finally be time to put a version of it up on Soundcloud. So we took a couple takes, and started trying to teach ourselves some of the finer points of using a (somewhat?) legitimate DAW. 

Needless to say, today we discovered reverb. Whoa.

Hope you enjoy. Thanks for listening.

Joe Hill, Swedish emigrant, songwriter, working class hero, was the inspiration behind this song.

A poll released on August 16th found that nearly half of Americans who support Biden plan to vote by mail rather than in person on election day, compared with just one in ten backers of Trump.

Big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/jonathan_beckenstein for his beautiful raw playing that takes this song from its humble ‘rural’ beginnings into big ‘city’ overdrive. And to Yaron Engler for his deft drum programming.

No letter in the post for Joe
No letter in the post for Joe
Where’s that vote
In an envelope
No letter in the post for Joe

He needs that letter to make things better 
Why’s it so damn slow
Don’t stop clapping
Until it happens
No  letter in the post for Joe  
      
Click, snap, a letter box flap
Tell me yes or no? 
If that my vote
In an envelope
That’s all I need to know
Or I tell you Joe might blow

Many thanks to Monkey Blood Lowdown, third world renowned multi-instrumentalist, board certified licensed ninja, expert nerf dart marksman, and retired Kawasaki mechanic(https://soundcloud.com/monkeybloodlowdown?ref=clipboard). This is his tune, and he plays the drums and organ. I'm grateful to have the opportunity to add the rhythm and lead guitars to this rendition. You should check out his original (https://soundcloud.com/monkeybloodlowdown/long-phase-1?ref=clipboard), which I favor over this rendition; I won't pretend to have improved it. I would be much obliged if you gave that one a spin. 

Also check out the work Monkey Blood Lowdown does with this oddball groove band, one of my favorite bands: https://soundcloud.com/user-291890055?ref=clipboard

Lyrics:-
We've always been together
Connected from the start
They've kept us in a prison
To keep us all apart

Hope and justice
In a world that's fake
Release perceptions
And we all escape
Look inside yourself 
And feel the shake
Come together
We can all awake

Don't matter where you begin
To expand your consciousness
OOH you'll feel the change
Its dimensional
Higher , Higher

We've always been together
Connected from the start
They've kept us in a prison
To keep us all apart

Hope and justice
In a world that's fake
Release perceptions
And we all escape
Look inside yourself 
And feel the shake
Come together
We can all awake
