This piece is the final result of our interstellar collaboration and our friendship. Hàkan (Well) sent to me his unique synths part, then I added some guitar passages. And hopefully, we found a balance between our instruments.
Hàkan is a really fantastic musician and my good friend. We both love the science-fiction movies. Hans Zimmer is our favourite film composer. We love Stanisław Lem and his books, too. So we tried to create that space atmosphere on this one.
We hope you enjoy our interstellar connection and our journey into the sun!

This track is the result of our ongoing collaboration and friendship. This time we invite you to travel deep into the ocean. It’s a world of beauty and mystery. Full of light and darkness, too. But always fascinating. Thank you for stopping by our vision of the ocean's immensity. We hope you enjoy this oceanic journey!

I delivered my guitar track to my friend, Josh (Entheogenic Psychonaught) and he enjoyed adding the psychedelic, yet foundational four string fretless bass. Ken (K2 and the Three and K2 and the Four) boosted the energy level of the song when he blew our minds with his driving drums. JJ (J.J. Terrell) added the wild, dynamic organ you hear throughout. Tez (Llanpsych) brought lightning down from the sky in the solo over the third section. And last, but certainly not least, Stephen (TexMex Shaman) laid down the mind-bending guitar solos over the first two sections. He also produced and mixed it, with a little help from Ken. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as our Eclectic Collective enjoyed making it. 

Thanks guys for this great experience!

This piece is a continuation of our previous track titled „Deep Ocean”. We invite you to explore the depths of the ocean. It’s a delightful journey, but also a disturbing one. You will find there not only beautiful underwater landscapes, but also dangerous places. Light and unearthly colors pass into darkness. We hope we have expressed all this in our music. Thank you for your time!

Deep Ocean: Exploration (w/Well)

This song is a new version (variation) of my tune called „Surf Dance”. I dedicate this piece to all those people who „surf” with me. Hope you enjoy this one. Thank you so much for your love and your ongoing support, my friends! 😎🎸

This is the final result of our new collaboration and another musical journey to which we invite you. There has already been an expedition into space and into the depths of the ocean. Now it's time for a night journey along the highway in the moonlight. This is a long journey where getting to the destination is paramount. We hope we were able to create this mood. Have a great time listening!

Surfers Like Us–@user-411502040–Artur–songwriting, foundational rhythm guitar

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman–Stephen–sitar, mix, and production

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell–electric piano, vocals

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara–Ken–drums and percussion, vocals

Llanpsych–@llanpsych–Tez–lead guitar

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–four string fretless bass guitar, vocals

  This song started with Artur composing a brilliant, open piece on his guitar, in his distinct surf rock style, and sending it to Josh. Josh put the bass down on top of Ken's banging drums, but it took Josh, a while to be able to get this one for some reason. Once he and Ken were locked in, though, they knew they had it. JJ then sprinkled his electric keyboard magic, followed by Tez, who lights up the whole thing with his electric guitar wizardry. 
  At Artur's request, Ken, JJ, and Josh added the big harmony vocals, "See you soon, in a better world." Artur wanted this song to be about the need for peace in the world. Last, but certainly not least, Stephen added the sitar intro. He also accomplished the herculean task of mixing and producing the whole thing for us.
  This is another true team effort by the Eclectic Collective, and the fourth in our series of surf rock songs. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Our next journey is unusual, but necessary. And each of us should make it in our hearts, and then invite other people to join us on this journey - a journey to world peace. The problem is still very relevant!!!
    This piece is our tribute to the victims of the nuclear attack in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. It is also a cry and an appeal for world peace!
    Artur: „When I got this intriguing synth track from my friend (Well) to record my guitar part, I was looking for the key to this song. Everything became clear after watching the film "Oppenheimer" by Christopher Nolan. I was deeply moved! May such a tragedy never happen again."
    Håkan: „I made this synth track and sent it over to Artur, hoping he could use it. He envisioned this theme and everything fell into place.
   Let us all hope that this never will happen again. Join us in our quest for world peace”.

    Release day: 21th Nov. 2023

Forgive us, Hiroshima! Forgive us, Nagasaki! (w/Well)

Love is the foundation of our lives! This is a piece for all who experience love and share love with others. I dedicate it to my wife who has accompanied me for three decades of my life, for better and for worse. But this song is very universal! Enjoy listening!!!

Love Song

This song was written and recorded for each and every one of you, my SoundCloud friends. It is by design a simple and festive surf song. And I hope you enjoy it and it will lift your mood. Thanks for all your support, good vibes and love. Merry Christmas to each and every one of you!!! ❄️🎸

This piece is the final result of our latest collaboration. This time we have the pleasure of inviting you to travel through time and space, and perhaps we can cross that boundary together.
   The end of the year is a time to visit each other and travel. So this will be a winter journey, in snow and blizzard. Perhaps during sunset or even at night... Either way, the doors of imagination have been opened!
    We hope to drift together in melancholy reverie towards the new year. Thank you for your time, attention and your ongoing support. Happy New Year!!! 🌞

Winter Trip  (w/Well)

For this starting year 2024 I offer you a new version of my song "Surfin' Christmas”. In the middle of the song you will find my solo drum part … played on an empty coffee can 😊 This is my percussion debut :)) Of course, I count on your sense of humor and understanding. Have a great 2024 🌞

Enjoy your 2024

The issue of world peace is on all of our minds. This is obvious! But how should we fight for this peace? There is war in so many places on our planet! We have a suggestion to make peace in and around ourselves! Do what is good and ... look for peace in yourself! This is probably the best we can do! That's what our song is about. This is a new take of our piece "Forgive us ...", saved for this new year. We hope we will inspire you!
    All the best to you, around the world, wherever you are and wherever you live! May peace of heart be our way and our salvation!!!

Seek peace within yourself  (w/Well)

This is a new version of my song from last summer. I hope you enjoy this longer surf improvisation!😎 This jam version of „Summer Joy” is especially dedicated to all those who don’t have the courage to change their lives and are not happy because of it. And yet everyone deserves to be happy! We only have one life and take it in your hands. Just like you pick up a guitar and just play it, without looking at what other people will say! And suddenly everything starts to flow in the right direction. This is your life!!! 🌞🎸

This is your LIFE

This song is another „winter journey” with a heavy dose of surf guitar! 😎 I hope I managed to express with sounds the feeling of longing and meeting someone close after a long time. I wish you a pleasant listening experience, my friends! 🍀

It’s been a long time

Imagine a phone call. Two people close to each other take turns speaking. Not everything reaches their ears, but they feel the positive vibrations. Love is more than words! It is mystery. That's more or less what this song is about!!! Hope you enjoy my new surf track 😎🎸

This piece is another result of our collaboration! It is an expansion and groovy complement to the track "Winter Trip". March is the month that belongs to spring and so the title "Spring Groove" fits well here. We invite you to come along for the ride in search of spring signs. We hope you will have a lot of fun listening (dancing?) to this piece. Thank you for your attention and support! 😎

Spring Groove (w/Well)

Spring is coming inevitably, and with it more and more dynamic surf rock songs! This one is brand new and still contains some winter nostalgia. I hope you will enjoy the vibe. I like "road movies" and enjoy creating "road music" for movies that don't exist 😉 But you can always use your imagination. Enjoy! 🍀🎸

This time our duo invites you all again into space. We suggest you chase the comet, which sparkles with colors and escapes from us to the unknown territories of the galaxy. We hope you will enjoy this atmosphere. See you aboard our spaceship 🌔💫

This song began with Artur composing the entire skeleton, and recording it against a mechanical beat. He presented it to Josh, who immediately shared it with The Eclectic Collective. Ken first replaced the metronomic beat with a real, rocking drum sound. Josh promptly added his fretless bass to it, to complete the rhythm section. Soon after, JJ added his electric piano magic, including a short solo, to the stew. Once the rhythmic framework was laid down, Stephen got to work on the choruses, coming up with solid, melodic lines for them. Then, it was Tez's turn to light up the verses with his monster guitar. When we had it mostly completed, Artur asked JJ if he'd do an intro to it. JJ came up with the whole psychedelic intro in response. 
  When it was finished, we asked Stephen if he would mix it for us, which he did with his typical mastery and attention to detail. We all really enjoy making music with Artur, and have been fans of and collaborators with him for almost a year now. If you like the sound of this song, you would do well to go check out his page, too, as he has a bunch of gems on there. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

This song is the final result of a collaboration with my friend from Kansas City. Nathaniel is a very creative and unique musician and has developed his own sound and style. And also in this song you can hear his unique style of playing guitar and harmonica. 
We've wanted to do a collaboration for a long time but only now our paths merged and we recorded this surf-folk track. 
It's a completely different version of my song "Only Good Days (are coming)". 
To my guitar part, Nathaniel added his slide and baritone guitars, and harmonica. We hope you enjoy the vibe. We wish you rest and respite with this track! 🍀

Thanks Nate for your creativity and beautiful playing !

This time I take you on a caravan journey along the desert trail. You may feel fear or loss in a sandstorm, but the journey continues....
This is how surf rock comes out of the ocean waves to the desert sands 😊 Thanks for listening to my latest piece. I hope you enjoy the vibe, my friends 😎🎸

This time, our duo invites you to face the illusion that prevents us from living our real lives to the fullest. We create an illusion and can't escape it. It could be some kind of addiction or toxic love. Whatever. We are in a maze and can't see the way out. Maybe it's time to break these shackles of illusion. Maybe the way out is in our mind. That's more or less what our piece is about! Enjoy listening to it 🌔

In the Trap of Illusion (w/ Well)

Hello, Everyone! Do you like surf rock? Do you like the soundtrack from „Pulp Fiction” and „Kill Bill”? I try to combine surf rock with other styles of music: with indie, psychedelic, space rock, ambient and folk 🍀

I co-found a duo with my friend from Sweden, Håkan (WELL ) on synthesisers. We have recorded several tracks together, which you can easily find on my profile and on WELL's profile. My friend and I are trying to combine ambient music or space rock with a surf guitar sound in our project. Our collaboration continues 😎 

I am also a member of the project FIFTY ON EARTH together with my friend from Poland, Marcin Jakubowski. You can listen to our tracks  „On the open road to north”,  „Let’s drift away” and „Space Crash” on SoundCloud 😎

Notable are my collaborative recordings with a group of wonderful musicians from the USA and England who perform under the banner of The Eclectic Collective. We were able to join forces on five tracks (compositions of my own making): Surf Dance/ A Time Race/ The One/ See You Soon (in a better world) / Tell Me The Truth 😎 This music goes beyond classic surf rock and into psychedelic territory with the help of incredibly talented and creative musicians such as Josh Clary (bass), Ken Karasek (drums), J.J. Terrell (keyboards) and fantastic guitar wizards: Tez (Llanpsych) and Stephen (TexMex Shaman) 🌞🏄🏼‍♂️

My latest project is a collaboration with my friend from Kansas City - Nathaniel Ehrnman. Together we created a quiet track called "Good Days”. Nathaniel added his guitar parts (slide and baritone) and harmonica to my track. His unique playing style gave the song a folk character 🍀

Enjoy the vintage sound of Fender Jaguar and the classic surf style - in the new version 😎🎸

MANY THANKS for listening, commenting and support 😊
