Wonderful symmetrical composition...sumptuous chords draw you into this modern classic!!

love your composition notes and I am amazed you did a crab canon!

I also love that we use so many of the same tools, makes it that much more interesting to me.

an ambitious piece, elegantly orchestrated with an interesting integration of electro sound! good job!

I really love this, Gentlemen, Wonderfully emotional, and technically Sublime..

this is fascinating. I read the notes. It seems very mathematical the way this comes about into a song.Let me ask when you do something this structured do you have in your ear a "melody" or musical statement so to speak that you want to make or do you more or less mathematically construct the bars and then listen too the end product. I mean if I strum a rhythm on the guitar and then fit my lyrics into it there are lots of twists and turns to the music and the lyrics to make "the song". here it seems that the mechanics of the process limit your flexibility to alter the end product if at that point you don't like the "sound", Does that make sense in any case this is amazing work and analysis

Production Note(It is highly recommended to read, as understanding the concept makes it even more interesting and changes the way you listen to it.)

Lyrically In The Mirror

Stoner Jazz--@user-911083679—Jeff—vocals, lyrics, and original stem

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

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

Llanpsych–@llanpsych–Tez–electric clean/effects guitar 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–four string fretless bass and synth-



This song originated with Jeff, who wrote a poem, which he set to a beat and a key with some very cool vocal processing. He sent it to Josh, who added the bass and the synth lines. Josh, of course, got the rest of the Eclectic Collective involved. Ken came up with a solid, distinct beat, based loosely on Josh's first take. Josh then redid his bass line to match up with Ken's drums, which is the way they seem to work best, sometimes going back and forth like that several times until they're locked in. Then, Tez and Stephen each added very distinct, supportive guitar tracks to fill it in. Tez comes through with the very Strat sounding bells ringing throughout. Stephen really shines with his textural tremolo playing throughout, as well as the rocking end. He also produced and mixed it expertly, as always. 

  This is the first time the Eclectic Collective has collaborated with Jeff, although both Josh and especially Stephen (as part of the band, The Smoking Trout) have made music with him before. We really enjoyed making a song based on his vocals, and Jeff is a welcome addition to our sound anytime. We all really enjoyed making this one. We hope you enjoy listening-

Stephen, Josh, Ken and Tez, Thank you very much for having me--You are all outrageous!!!:)


Lyrics

Naked Shoulders

l like the way the sun lights up
the naked shoulders of the Early morning
ln the Desert where we met-
ln the shack down by the muddy River
where you said you waited
while l rambled on about the time of
Youth and Sex and Beauty-
When the Real Revolution was the Music-

Slitting quietly and thinking
while the melancholy has lt's moment
letting longing linger longer than lt should

Took a little tumble ln the Bumble
when l got older
always just a little lucky
ln the middle of disaster
no longer sure lf l'm the spell or l'm the caster
only knowing that my feet are made of plaster-

Even though lt's getting late, even though lt's getting late
l'm still standing at the gate
hoping for a little bite hoping for a little taste hoping for a little slice of Nlrvana Nlrvana-

Verse 2

You know lt's harder than lt looks
even though l read some books
l'm ln love with my Delusion, Naked and inviting
lt whispers sweetly ln my head and says
You're gonna live Forever, even though l'm almost dead-

Everything that came before
comes knocking at the back-stage door
demanding parts ln the production of the play-

What makes you think you have a choice?
The Director Sald
you don't have to memorize the dialogue
the script ls ln your Head--

Naked Shoulders // TexMex Shaman/K2 and the Three/ L!anpsych/ Entheogenic Psychonaughts

Bloom

Strategic misaligned omissions
 
Now ls the culmination of everything That's happened up till now
So, how's your Now, Now Brown Cow
oh Thanks for asking
l'm too busy ln not now right now

Broken vessel that's fallen on the Riven Brick
you're going to have to shake lt
there's still some work to do
lf you really want to turn this trick

May l please have permission to reconstruct
a Broken Brain with Strategic misaligned omissions?
ls there someone who can sign the proper papers of Approval?
Can l find a Bureaucrat who knows just where lt's at?

Playing not to lose ls not the same as playing for the Win--
liberating crazy wild ones, incarcerated way down deep
delving ln the dungeons deep below the basement of your soul
ls always righteous ln lt's nature-
otherwise, don't bother me with all your funky Jive

MORE ABOUT LARRY
One two three golden pots of meur and Frankincense, and golden seal ln the back-Sld and Mary-ann and Larry who plays that fretless bass wlth such abandon and here's the thing, Mary-ann can sing like god, damn that girl can sing-

Larry loves Mary-Ann and Mary- Ann loves Sid and Sid loves that Stratocaster-The three of them Chasing down an eastern Star ln a stolen car the Magistrate says they won't get far, Says they're never going to make lt to Jerusalem-

Rats are knawing on the golden crown, leaving tiny dents ln the luster
Someone lost their way, but that's okay, everybody finds their way 
on the path that meanders through the crack between the worlds-

THE MAESTRO

captured in the eddy of the river bright, the still life painted with the colors of the soul, the dead-eyed and the damaged wander through the landscape of the misty light without compassion for our plight.

even in the darkest night there’s drops of paint, notes from my guitar, and tiny light that usher in such lush delights, though worthless in the merchants eye, the maestro has the wings to fly…

it’s a big mess, got a hole in my chest, taken down and crushed like apples in a press, i confess to everything i’ve ever done. every single one of us… on the run.

when minds are quiet, the stink of revolution floats in the air, and the overlords they waste away in deep despair… slippin in the deep end not so quietly. fantastic sights!!
tin can rattle in the back, living in a tiny shack, standing in the middle of a two lane blacktop gazing at a cloud i saw some thirty years ago.

RlGHT OUT THE GATE

Anthology Act lV

The Second Victorian Era

ebow-synth-guitar-drum Machine=Zoom G1X4-Roland Vt-4-160 bpm

2 Poems--

Intro:
I feel like i'm Rolling to a stop
 Words that used to bubble out my mouth 
are flowing down my chin

going from the speed of light 
To coasting down a dirt road in a pickup late at night--

Double shot of Cuervo Gold

Three oclock in the afternoon, on the 15th day of june, under the spell of a pisces moon.
i got down to write this tune..
You know, no one cares what you think.
can somebody get me a drink...a double shot of cuervo gold on the rocks
would be just fine'
i can never really seem to draw the line.
Sun and birds and water, my mother's favorite daughters.
we march into the slaughter with our heads up high.
Turn that little voice off in my head.
i'm not sure if i'm here or if i'm back in bed.
it's ok either way, i just glad that i'm not dead.

Overstated underrated slightly dated speculatiions on the origins related to complicit complications of intention and the nature of invention in the manufacture of reality.
so here we are in the shifting landscapes of our individuality.
And thank you for allowing me to wander around your brain, i would never knowingly cause you any pain.



This Moment

The moment this moment
is the only moment that exists
the moment this moment
is not a measurement of time
it takes no time at all
there is no measurement that small
the moment when the moment
passes from the future to the past
is not a measurement of time at all
but a place in space
like a string of pearls in a void.

Lyrics by Wildsilences 

“i'm you
and i'm the voice in your head
telling you, 'no'
i'm the addiction
but you can't stop
i'm the love and i'm the lie
i'm the dark and i'm the light
i'm you
i'm the shadow
i'm the dream, nightmare
i'm the life
i'm the hurt
i'm the loneliness
i'm the cold night, walking home
i am the scream
i'm your surrender
and i am the quiet
i am..."

RELEASE NOTES

A collaborative jam featuring Stonerjazz (@user-911083679) on vocals,
Turab Khan (@turab-khan) on guitar, Zanshin 残真 (@soundsofthekosmos) on
drums & Teth Sin (@teth-sin) on guitars, bass & vocals.
This collaboration started back in 2020. Myrh (@myrhyum) suggested Teth
Sin to track a guitar part on "Mazdoor Funk (loop jam with Raza)" -
Original track by Turab Khan:
https://soundcloud.com/turab-khan/chichora-23. The project was then left
aside for various logistical and technical reasons.
A couple of years later Zanshin 残真 sent Teth Sin a sample of his cool
street drumming, which was synced to Turab Khan's jam. Teth Sin, at that
point, decided to cut out the bass and drums from the original piece,
leaving only Turab Khan's guitar. Then he chopped up his guitar solo and
redistributed it across various tracks. He also added a new bass line,
which helped vary the structure of the song.
In late 2023 Teth Sin asked Stonerjazz to kindly add lyrics and vocals.
He mixed and mastered the song, and the result is this enjoyable
funk-rock jam, featuring a sample of Stonerjazz's exquisite
post-beat/psychedelic poetry.
Please note that every element was recorded in a different continent:
drums in Australia, some guitar in Pakistan, other guitars in Tunisia,
bass in Italy, vocals in the USA. Still this virtual jam sounds so
cohesive, despite a world that seems to be increasingly fragmented and
disjointed. At the end of the day, we should always remember that we all
revolve around That Giant Ball Of Burning Gas...

LYRICS by Stonerjazz:

Just out here in the middle of the void,
spinning fast around a giant ball of burning gas
that's hurdling thru the deepest darkest space.
Meteors and comets are zooming by at breakneck pace
The situation seems to be a little bit precarious,
some might even say Nefarious,
how can it be that tragedy can sometimes  almost  be  hilarious.
Stupidity it seems to be the order of the day.
But here we are and here we go onward out,
like warriors without a clue,
and everyone will play their part,
of this i'm sure, i know it's true.

That Giant Ball Of Burning Gas - Feat Teth Sin, Turab Khan, Zanshin 残真

Drones, beats and bass shot through with soprano sax, clarinet and flute.

SPIKED

Funny and funky in a kind of serious way:)
