Name: Out of Focus by Heliopolis 5
Duration: 4 min 15 s
Description: This track ended up reminding quite a bit of the Dutch rock band Focus from the early 70's ( mainly from the vaguely operatic voices I used ) hence the title! I only made this connection when I'd finished it believe-it-or-not. Once again it was made in GarageBand.

@user-936947521 Thank you so much, Frans. It really means a lot!

this one has a lot of great moments. the intro and this section are prob my faves. Love!

Psychedelic haze meets operatic drama in a track that wanders through memory like an old film reel, scratched, surreal, and strangely captivating. That choir element floats ghostlike above the mix, echoing back to Focus era theatrics with a wink and a swirl. Guitars shimmer, drums pulse just out of frame, and everything feels like it’s moving through a dream you half remember from your dad’s record collection. It doesn’t ask for clarity, it dares you to lose yourself. 💨 The kettle hissed, “This was steaming with mystery, like prog rock brewed in a teapot” 🧄 The garlic press muttered, “I didn’t understand it, but I felt it, and now I smell like nostalgia” 🧊 The ice dispenser clinked, “Operatic, trippy, and weirdly beautiful, I froze mid vibe” GarageBand sorcery at its finest, like falling backward through time into a vintage jam session with ghosts and glitter.

Very progressive rock sounding... I like that.. :-)

mystical sound - like a soundtrack in an adventure game

The Carpenters are the Favourite band of all my celebrities.

Their songs have been a part of my childhood, my teenage years and even
now. Especially Karen's voice.
She had a fairly deep, medium-range voice, warm and colorful,
with an exceptional tone.
She was not only a singer, but also a very talented drummer.
Her brother Richard also has an extraordinary voice and does a lot of
backing vocals.

Their two voices alone amply cover the harmony of their tracks.
They're Unique.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love this song; it's well-paced, as well as the bass and especially the drums.
For me, this song is very hard to sing, 
because the key starts off very low and rises quite high,
and the tempo also increases.

Honestly, I struggled to keep up with the rhythm in both choruses.
As I was saying, my voice isn't what it was 20-30 years ago. 🙂

Mr Bringer-er Together-er is Josh. You may also know him as artist Entheogenic Psychnought, or the spine of Eclectic Collective. We all came across Josh in our own lucky ways, but he really sets a high bar for spreading constructive musical love and encouragement on SoundCloud. This song started out as a comment. I (Carl/TBD) went to call Josh Mr Bringer-er Together-er and my phone auto corrected it. the next morning K2 swooped in and said what I wanted so I used that as a trigger for the song.

So, I had a rough arrangement. We then invited a few artists, except Josh, to paint it for him. Scratch Kelly, aka Sarah, beamed through some amazing vocals. Not long behind Joe Stroffolino painted in some brilliant backing vox, and polished the art. Then Scotty (One Man Verity Show) chimed in with some amazing guitar, trippy backing vocals, and the super artwork you get to enjoy. Mark brushed in a triangle and some vox, and then Ken added those trusty drums. Tez then strutted in and added some super lead guitar, and not far behind him was Stephen with some epic rhythm guitar that showed the way for the song from that point of view showing a much better space to all the other instruments than the original demo guitar. That was a lovely lesson on less is more...


The song was now ready to give to the main man for him to paint, and he chose his trusty bass to put some strawberries on his own musical cake.


I now stared at 37 tracks and went... Hmmm Stephen, Help! Stephen mixed and mastered it to its crisp current form, and it was a very difficult mix. He basically had to merge 3 projects to one and really aced the challenging mix and master like the true shaman he is. We hope you enjoy the song that brought us together again. May it give us more togetherness like Josh so wonderfully demonstrates everyday


You da brother man Josh 🤘🏽

I enjoy producing upbeat tracks spanning a range of pop styles. I really hope you have fun listening to them. I write my tracks using GarageBand and hopefully I am improving my writing, arranging and production skills. I do not use AI in any of my compositions.
