Having battled for several pretty intense days finally resurrecting a long dead Fairlight VT-5 for a client in the workshop I ended up having one of those stranger moments fortunately with the recorder running to capture the moment.  During testing I had gotten curious and wondered what would happen if I fed the output of the synth the Fairlight Voicetracker was driving back into the VT-5.. I'd started recording some drones and, to my surprise, the feedback ended up basically causing the VT-5 to self-write this tense half-note laden string overdub sequence in sympathy with it almost like something straight out of some gritty 70s action crime thriller!

Recording & Composition D.A.Wilson, Hideaway Studio 2022.

--------------------
This is a song that JJ created late one Saturday night on the piano, drums, bass, and guitar. He then presented it to the rest of the Eclectic Collective so we could do our thing with it. Josh replaced JJ's rough bass with his interpretation of the line as soon as Ken replaced the drums with his interpretation of the beat. Interestingly, Ravel's Bolero had a lot to do with the inspiration for the second part of the song. After the rhythm section was done, we turned it over to Stephen, who came up with some really subtle, yet much needed guitar lines. 

 We then turned it over to our relatively new collaborator, Mark, who came up with the lyrics and vocals. This is a lyrical and vocal songwriting debut for Mark, who was inspired by his very first listen to JJ's rough draft. Thus, this song is extra special for him.  

Mark's lyrics are about our Earthly relatives in the far distant future. At that point life on Earth will have just about reached its limits, and so mankind embarks on a journey through space to find another place to call home.

We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we did creating it.

LYRICS:
Part 1:
All you know, all you love is here today
Feel the sun, see the flowers embrace her rays
And you know, all we are must fade away
And now its time to go… 
away…

Part 2:
Here we are, flying high, flying high above the moons of Mars
And beyond another sunrise greets a world once again,
a million miles from where we are
To embrace the flowers of Jupiter, 
once again…

On and on we sail away, searching for another day,
the universe an endless sea
And you know that somewhere out there,
a brand new world, for you and me….
