Artur -  I was aware of surf music of course, but you have taken things to another level with your unique compositions and wonderful tones.  So much fun being a part of this amazing style of music with an authentic player such as yourself.  Thanks for letting us have some fun and  add this one to the list of my favorite EC songs - as are the others with you!! Great song man !!

I have been listening to this across the internet and finally have made my way here--and I must say you and the other guitar maestro's have done some beautiful Guitarin my friend:):)

Hey Artur, this one's got your signature style from the second you hear your part come in after JJ's cool intro. And the addition of the other amazing performances really givs this song some bite. Very impressed (though not surprised) how well this turned out!

Top prog, amazing wild guitars & performance, superb

Wow, what a power house. Awesome intro and that guitar fizz is fantastic - sits so nicely and creates a great texture and drama - great jamming quality too, as always from the EC!

what an intro... silence before the storm played great... guitar sound.....🌍☮︎👍

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 composition is dedicated to J.J., Josh, Ken, Stephen and Tez 😎 Thank you guys for your friendship, outstanding playing and creativity! 🌞🎸

Tell me the Truth (w/ The Eclectic Collective)

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 😊
