Hey Mark. What a fantastic ride!!! I’m very impressed with this piece! Everything works here and everyone gave their best! Your poem and performance with your daughter fits perfectly here, too. Congratulations to the whole team! 🌔🔥

Like diving into a wide colorful void! Beautiful playing and choice of sounds!

Mark - fantastic mix on this one.  Love how you kept building on it and it never got out of hand or out of balance.  The spoken word part was a great touch.  What a treat to have your daughter sing with you !  You really put this one together well !

Apologies for not communicating sooner on your page, Mark! This is one fabulous mix and vocal parts from you and your daughter!! Thanks to Cg Maness for the inspiration!! One of the best, yet!! More to come!! Love this!!!🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏

Caught this one on Josh's page. Wow those guitars are wailing and the rhythm section is just incredible too.

Good sound, motivational vibes for working on things!

Really love this track! Pensive and floating like dancing on a giant guitar string. Love the rhythmic punctuation from the excited open hi hat!

LYRICS

Living times
Lifetime's gone,
Crisp at dawn
Mellowed by the sun.

Golden horizon, all at stake,
People arrive at the fray.

No one knows the roots of our past.
No one shows, we've given our best.

Times have come
Times have gone,
Past tense
Is the chosen form.

Till the plain, caught up surrounding 
Our heart, our soul, our own.

No one knows the roots of our past.
It goes to show it's gone too fast.

Shear moonlight through my window.
Riding sideline, drawn-out timeline.
Taste so quaint, virtuoso.
Hello blueprint: unchecked, untried.

See the way
Script what may,
Humbled by the song
Promises go on.

What is this, hold on exist,
Gotta love our land, our smile, our pain.

No one knows the roots of our past.
No one grows enliven the guest.
It goes to show it's gone too fast.
No one knows the roots of our past.

The Roots of Our Past

I wrote this contemporary jazz piece after watching Rick Beato's wonderful interview with Keith Jarrett. This features Ric Fierabracci on bass, Larry Salzman on percussion and Mannuel Trabucco on soprano sax.

"And indeed there will be time
For the yellow smoke that slides along the street,
Rubbing its back upon the window-panes;
There will be time, there will be time
To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet"

Real Good trouble

Massive thanks to Magic Mike Fox  for his musicianship, producing, production and most of all just for being a top bloke.
And Nat Daniels for her massive contribution with her incredible vocals.
I have done many duets with Nat and every time it’s been a pleasure we have created many special moments.
Marry Me In Vegas was part 1 this is part 2 after Vegas with Real Good Trouble. 
Months after the non event of the grand marriage. He missed her after jilting her and not making the flight he felt like he needed to explain he just wasn’t ready for what she wanted. 
He never had the chance as she disappeared, shutdown her socials, changed her number and left.
Months passed without contact and then this phone called happened.

REAL GOOD TROUBLE (After Vegas)

I can’t believe you’re back in the city 
We called called our own
You wouldn’t recognise my number 
When I was calling,  calling on your phone
You said I’m sorry it’s been too long now 
And too many stones thrown 
I changed my number then picked another 
It was a stagecoach to Basingstoke 

Chorus 
So if you wanna get into 
Some real…. real Good trouble 
And leave our past behind
Then I’m ready & primed
For real good trouble 
For real good trouble….. Every Time! 

(every time.. oh baby baby baby... every time)

2nd Verse
After Vegas I needed to leave 
I should of worn my heart on my sleeve
Every minute of everyday 
I thought of you and what I would say 
I got a job found a place 
And for a while I was the new face.. 
And all the great moments that got us through 
Were never the same without You! 

Chorus 
So if you wanna, get into
Some real…. real good trouble 
And leave our past behind 
Then I’m ready & primed
For real good trouble 
For real good trouble … Every Time!

Every time.. oh baby baby baby... every time..
Real good trouble... 
Real good trouble... 
Real good trouble... 
Every time.. Every time!

CAST OF CHARACTERS:
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- electric piano, synth, seed idea
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark –  vocals, lyrics, mix, and production
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–banjo, guitar, sitar, and final mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, seed idea
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – four-string fretless bass

Composition – The Eclectic Collective
This song started in probably the most effective way our group writes them. Ken had a spectacular drum beat that was unused in a previous project, so JJ composed and recorded  a chord arrangement with his magical keys. Once we had a beat and a chord structure, Josh came along and added his foundational bass. 
     Now that the rhythm section was complete and the chord structure was in place, Stephen added his unique melody line that you hear at the beginning and every other verse on his magic banjo. He also plays all the initial guitar until around 1:40, where Tez takes over. Stephen also added some really trippy sitar in the vocal section. Then it was time for Tez to add some spice to the mix with his fiery guitar solos from about 1:40 on, eventually building up to a crescendo towards the end. 
     Once we had all the music down, we realized that we had a big gap in the bridge without much going on in it. So, Mark came through with an old poem he had written on his fridge with word magnets for his daughter more than a decade ago, and expanded on it for this song. (the poem is loosely based on the idea that our dreams exist in a digital environment/universe) The young girl's voice you hear echoing Mark's filtered voice is his daughter, in her first appearance with the EC. 
     The song was now finished, except for Mark using his production skills to trim and move a few things, then mix it. While we usually defer to Tez or Stephen for the mix, Mark did such a great job, we decided to keep his mix. Stephen did, however master and EQ it to make it a finished product. 
     This song was truly put together as a whole band effort, showcasing what the Eclectic Collective can do. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.  

Original lyrics by Mistermark:  

The moon flickers on
and rises and dances
across a celestial stage
as dreamers paint the pixels of their mind 
like an infinite canvas 

Sleep away tiny egg
and leave a delicate thread 
of memory behind 
but never log out 
you are in the elaborate web
always
