Incredible journey! Really nice mix and master too.

jeez Chris I thought I was current but you've been cranking stuff out!!  this has a solid Prog groove that feels like John Wetton driving the bass and the lyrics seem so innocent, but the psychedelically ominous vibe gives a sense of dire urgency, even with, or maybe even because the gentle vocal delivery (that bass track is such a pleasure to listen to)

oh man the delay on the snare here is so cool

Man this is so fine.  The tension, the builds, then the backoffs, you didn't just write this song, you felt it. Wish I could create that kind of percussion too, just great.

Oh, this is very nice! Great work and vocals!

Wonderful arrangement‼️ Good job‼️

love the mellotron and ostinato bass over the groovy beat -- a very "Zero 7" downbeat vibe!

An evolved version, with drums and keys by ColSeth. Lots more energy.



Emerald Eyes

Lyrics:
......................................
Take these little seeds,
Water them please.
Upon the window sill.
Are you still asleep?
Roots need the dark,
Digging down deep.
Soaking up the light,
So we can be leaves.
So... We can believe.
So... We shall be.
💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦
Shaking brittle trees,
In the breeze.
Were once big and strong.
Now they fall with ease.
All of these demands,
Blood red hands,
Grab ahold of life,
Soiling all the land.
☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
All these evil men,
Selling you sin,
You try to turn the dial,
They control the wind.
🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
Oh so many ways,
Burning through the days,
Harvesting your time,
Leaving you dismayed.
We... Made to lay down.
Sow... All you have now.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Lyrics:
how do you know
if anything is real?
or are all
the memories 
just surreal?
all time can do 
is take
and steal
all you can do is
feel

look outside your door
what is it all for?
what's the meaning 
at the core?
is there something more?

something more

This song began with David, who wrote it on the guitar, synth, and bass over a programmed beat he created. He and Josh met more than two months ago and decided to do a collaboration, based on mutual enjoyment of and respect for each other's music. Dave had this song pretty much fleshed out, although it was still a skeleton when he offered it to Josh, who, of course, got the rest of the Eclectic Collective involved. 

Dave asked us all to compose our own parts for the song, so we all got to work right away doing that. We all realized that the first order of business would be to get a real beat on this, so Ken accomplished that task with some dynamic, Eastern inspired drums and percussion, which he plays throughout the song. JJ then stepped in and added his best eastern flute magic. Stephen was next with the perfect-vibe sitar you hear in the first two sections. 

Josh came next to add his five-string fretless bass to the mix, augmenting David's high, staccato bass with his deep, low tone bass. Then, for the third section, where David's Gilmore-esque guitar solo resides, Josh drops out, allowing for Dave's awesome bass playing in that section. However, Josh does come in again towards the end, in the final section, too. Also, in that section, Tez dropped an augmented, harmonic, electric fire, complementary guitar part. Then, David's frequent collaborator and friend Ron added some well blended, ethereal synth to the first section, too.

Once we had the instrumental parts pretty much laid down, we began to discuss getting a woman to sing on this, as David was inspired by The Great Gig in the Sky, by Pink Floyd, and we all agreed. Who we found to do it actually blew all of our minds. JJ, being familiar with her music, contacted Elpi first, and we were all lucky enough that she agreed to do it. Having heard Mediterranean music all her life in Greece, she tapped into what her husband said were her "ancient Greek roots" for her spectacular vocal performance. She finds all the modal notes and places them perfectly throughout her sections. 

But before we were done, Mark came through with some really striking talking drum parts in the first two sections, too. Once we had everything in the can, David took over, both with some masterful editing and production, and with the balanced, dynamic mix. The mix was a formidable task, but he did it with considerable skill, also taking everyone's opinions into account, which is a talent in and of itself. When he was done with the mix, he turned it over to Stephen for the mastering, which the latter did to everyone's satisfaction, as always.

This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with David, Elpi, and Ron, and we all hope it's the first of many, as we welcome them into the EC family. They all have some wonderful music on their pages, too, so do yourself a favor and check out all of them, as well. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

The Siege

The Siege : by David Marconi featuring Elpiverse, Ron Lewis & The Eclectic Collective

'ex-love' 

I'm such a fuckin' fool
to have fallen for you.
You act like everything is cool,
but your words don't match what you do. 

I caught you in the act.
And how did you react?
You placed the blame right back
on me. Claimed I used the key misappropriately. 

But you're the liar and the cheat, ex-love.
So, why the fuck did you give me a key, ex-love?
If you knew you're gonna fuckin' cheat on me, ex-love?
Then turn it around, place the blame upon me, ex-love.

We're through.
Because of you.
Not me.

ex-love
