oh yes this one i know..   it sound absolute amazing..  such a great track..   organized chaos!!   so trippy,  absolutly some of the best tracks i have heard in here on SC..   i hope that it get a lot more of attention,  it deserve that  :o)

I remember hearing this on Josh's page a while back - love that piano riff!! great fx & arrangement! on my next playlist 👍

i love this track..   it is a boomerang!!   but it is a trippy one..    it is genius..

great piano melody intro..100-110 neat sounding keyboard...like the change of tone/pace at 150 or so..

I don't remember if I already commented this one but anyway, it's very cool!

A collection of songs by the group of SoundCloud artists known as The Eclectic Collective. Mostly original music (they have a few covers), and definitely an original sound. I’ve had the pleasure to write and or contribute on just a few songs, but mostly I just love hearing what these very talented fellows come up with on a weekly basis!

The Eclectic Collective [playlist]

This is a song that Steve of Steve's Planet wrote and for which recorded the vocals and acoustic guitar. He then gave it to Ken (K2 and the Three, K2 and the Four) to play with it. Ken added rocking drums and perfect backing vocals. Ken then sent it to me, and I added the bass, organ, piano, and more, high backing vocals. Then we got Tez (Llanpsych) involved to work his magic and mix the beast, which he did masterfully, as usual. This is our first song with Steve, but it certainly won't be the last. We hope you enjoy it.

Better Than Nothing (Eclectic Collective)

This is a song JJ came up with on bass, organ, and electric piano, originally to share with a singer. She declined, and I swooped in to grab it. I really like how it starts very funky, then goes into a Floydy jam. I added some wah guitar, slide, and some tremolo heavy rhythm guitar. At the same time, Ken (K2 and the Three, and K2 and the Four)added the perfect kit drums and the hand drums, which give it a whole next-level dimension. JJ then went in and added the very cool synth lead you hear in the second part. I also really like his electric piano solo in the second part. Of course, we weren't done yet, because someone had to mix the beast. And that someone was the master of the mix, the chairman of the board, Tez (Llanpsych). He is a true life wizard behind the board and with an ax, although we only got the mix out of him on this one. Anyway, we all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

Mayflower (Eclectic Collective)

Lost at Sea

This is a perfect song for collaboration that JJ came up with on the keys and bass, based on a really cool drum track that Ken (K2 and the Three, K2 and the Four) gave him. They are both wildly creative, and left the perfect amount of collaborator space, as they do on every song. Then I got a hold of it and added the main guitar, lap slide, mandolin, and some synth. Then we sent it over to Stephen (TexMex Shaman), who added that really cool guitar solo at the end of the first part, and some more guitar to the end. Also, and very importantly, Stephen produced and mixed this for us. Talk about monumental task! It was like we gave him a basket of cats, and he made a cohesive thought out of it. I'm amazed. I can't overstate how much I enjoy making music with these three sorcerers. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did making this.

Joyless Future / Paploviante / Open Collaboration Offer

It's 1985 and my eyes are enormous cameras, and they're capturing the oh-so-suburban bliss of summer and ever after :)

Summer and Ever After

Cast of characters:
mistermark--@user-432503709--Mark---piano, drums, FX, and composition
Llanpsych--@llanpsych--Tez—electric guitar, production, and mix
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)--@josh-clary-1—four string fretless bass and electric guitar

This originated as just a short piano thing that I (Mark), wrote a while ago after. At the kind request to collaborate on something, I sent it to Josh, who took it into a whole new direction by adding the fretless bass and some delay-heavy electric guitar. That inspired me to add some drums and a few sonic effects. Then we got Tez involved, who added not only the screaming guitar parts in the meat of the song, but also the entire insane 'reverse' coda at the end. Tez also produced and mixed this for us, expertly. This is the first of hopefully many songs I get to do with Josh & Tez - we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. :)

Heavy Steps (with Entheogenic Psychonaught & Llanpsych)

Cast of characters:
Steve's Planet--@steve-vervaet—Steve—acustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, composition/arrangement

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

J.J. Terrell--@j-j-terrell—JJ—organ

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

Llanpsych–@llanpsych–Tez–electric guitar 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–Fender precision bass  


This song began as an acoustic guitar and vocals stem written and performed by Steve. He sent it to me, and I added the undulating staccato bass line, with the help of Ken's always well-suited drums. We went back and forth a couple of times, as is our process, until it clicked. Tez added some really dynamic leads and fills throughout, and Stephen filled in the rest of the electric guitar in a Keith/Ronnie kind of way, which is very tasteful. JJ then added some perfectly complimentary organ. Finally, Ken pleasantly surprised us with the low vocal harmonies, which were spot on. 
  Stephen also mixed and produced this one for us. He's brilliant behind the board, and we're lucky to have him aboard. This one came together in a matter of a relatively short period of a fortnight, which is rare for the Eclectic Collective. But, when something is hot and already put together, it comes quickly. We all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed putting it together.

Lyrics:
Fallin’
Wandering aimless
Couldn’t shoot straight
No ability
Not much to say
There was no sign of me
Good times, bad times
Leaving out the sad times
Easily
That’s what they’re telling me
Mend or break
Looking over rooftops
Coming to a full stop
Suddenly
On a sad height
Raging endlessly
Breakline, beeline
Picking up the freeline
Easily
Follow my way
Leavin’ the fast lane
My- My mind is fallin’
When I think about, losing out
There’s no doubt, you started fallin’ x2
And I – I’ve been going my way
One more time, only today 2x
My- My mind is fallin’
When I think about, losing out
There’s no doubt, you started fallin’ x2

Fallin' (Steve's Planet with Eclectic Collective)

On The Way Back [Hans Zimmer Strings]

Rich, pampered girl from Abilene, Texas meets a trail-worn cowboy with a checkered past, and they head north to avoid her family's scrutiny. It's a doomed relationship from the start, of course, and only lasts until the snow breaks.  Abilene comes calling - she heads back home, and the cowboy does what all cowboys in trouble do (at least in the songs I listen to) - he splits for the border.  True story?  Maybe...
 
The timeline in the song is a little convoluted - begins in the middle and then back to the start, then to the end and back to the middle etc.,..   But you old cowhands will figure it out.

Female voices are Julia Avery and Madison Carr.
 
And the winter would pass......
