Great flow and sense of events unfolding throughout this piece, nice culmination at the end!

A beautiful piece of sonic storytelling 🤍

I can feel that the bass line is precisely created to match the song. The piano is beautiful, and the sound design supports that beauty.

Awesome flow here...piano is beautiful🙏🏼

organical growing from piano, more instruments, adding more lines, blosseming, the flower opens up!

lyrics:
And then i ask my self, is there a way out, could i be heard loud?
And then i ask my self, could it be?

And then i turn my head, up in the sky and wondering why?
could i turn back time or live it again?

Chances are thrown away, anothers have won not gone astray
but that's a blessing not a curse so thank you!

You think is over...over now, just shake your head and face now
face the truth and all the greatness around

Don't need nothing else, i got everything that completes me
all the rest is just a dusty grain of sand

Tea R. Sea @tea_are_sea -- Terry – Synthesizers, beats, composition, production, and mix

The Mysterious Decibel -- @themysteriousdecibel – MD – First vocals and lyrics 

Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–Electric guitar

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

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, lyrics, and vocals at the end

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–five-string fretless bass

     This song began with Terry sharing an intriguing Eastern sounding synth and minimal beat with Ken, who added a really solid beat to bring out the strong rhythm of the song. Once they had a solid foundation and skeleton, they shared it with the rest of the Eclectic Collective. 
     Josh added his four string fretless bass in a dubby line that was inspired by Tez's hot skank part. Stephen came up with the shocking dynamic lift towards the end, and Tez piled on to light it up. Then MD got a hold of it and wrote and sang some of his trademark, fun lyrics and vocals in the first part of the song. Ken, not to be left out of the melodic experience, added the vocals at the end. 
   After we all had everything in the can, the Texas Tea combo of Stephen and Terry produced and mixed the whole thing down. This wasn't their first rodeo mixing a project together, and it really shows in the end quality. They also have several duo projects up on both of their pages that are worth checking out.  
  We think the end result is reminiscent of Massive Attack and Thievery Corporation, two big influences on a few of us. We all hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics by MD:
Time again and on, and on, and on, we fall in slumber
Dreams never wait
Ashes to ashes we all fall down 
Ooooo Circles break
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
When we wake
When we wake
Is this a new Simulation?
When I wake
When I wake

Lyrics by Ken:
Feed the fire, or the fire flames out

This is a song started when Mark came up with its architecture, recorded in a  slower, more laid back version on his own. However, he wanted a more souped up version with solos in turns. 

So, he turned to The Eclectic Collective to fill in the pieces. He originally had solos in all the parts which he laid down on the keys, and he had some lyrics, too. However, once he heard The Mysterious Decibel's excellent lyrics and vocals, the song totally changed the direction and the vibe, for the stellar. 

But MD didn't start the whole thing. As happens sometimes, even without Tez on this one, we still needed to clear out some space to let everyone have their say. So, Mark went in and lengthened the song mechanically. Once we had a final form, Ken, as always, came up with the foundation for the song, allowing Josh to add his version of Mark's bass line. 

Then, after MD gave us the vocals to form the song, we got down to adding the solos. JJ first added his thrilling opening piano solo, as well as the electric piano solo right after the first verse, which Mark is also playing a VST sax solo in, as well. Then Josh added his guitar solo, which is the first of the two, with a very clean tone. Right after that, Stephen added his fiery solo, which follows right after with a more overdriven tone. Finally, Mark stepped back in and added his killer harp solo at the end. Of course, it needed to be mixed well, too, so we turned to Stephen for that important role, once again, which he fulfilled expertly.  
 

This past Tuesday, we released a fun little series of interviews over a compilation of some of our favorite musical moments. If you want to hear our voices and some of our thoughts about music, check it out. I realize it's a big ask at twenty minutes, but you might really enjoy it, especially if you follow us, and have been for a while. It's a celebration of all of our work over the past almost year together in various forms. This song was supposed to be a showcase of all of our skills, except Tez isn't in on this one. He'll be on the next one, though, for sure.
  We hope you enjoy this jazzier side of the EC as much as we enjoyed making it. MD's lyrics are about a psycho killer artist who hides clues about his murders in his paintings. 
Original Lyrics by The Mysterious Decibel:

Some might say he's crafty and planned.
With a shade of black and a brush in his hand
Some might say the world is his oyster
But no Pearl lays inside just a conjuring blur

He'll paint you a murderous scene
With the blending of  sin all between pigments of green
He's a shady fella Who hides behind the canvas!
I spy something with my little eye
This art might show just where he died

Will you find it?
The secret
Some freak shit
are you so sure you'll really wanna Keep it ?
The secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?
Ahhh a little secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?
It'll haunt your mind like it does him too
He's a swifty one he'll come for you!
The secret
The secret
The secret
Are you so sure you'll really wanna keep it?

I spy something with my little eye
This art might show just where he died

His art might show
might show
might show
just where he died

One of my favorite projects by Morry back in the late 80s/early 90s. Tascam, probably around the time we had an 8-track cassette. Hope our SC friends are doing well!

This is an original tune that is somewhat inspired by my own experience as a salesman. It relates the empty feeling of being holed up in a hotel/motel with a "tomb of a hotel room" and needing to find a local bar to settle into for a little fun. The nightlife traveling from town to town and a new bar every stop along the way becomes a sort of comforting home away from home. It doesn't have to be anything more than your typical neighborhood hole in the wall bar as long as it has cold beer, music and TV...and an open barstool!
Special thanks to my Daniels & Durgy partner, Nat Daniels, for her huge help in updating this older recording of mine. Her production skills and mixing really made this shine so much brighter, along with the addition of the talented Dakota Holden on pedal steel.

Lyrics:   Barstool by Craig Durgy

I’ve been all across this land
I’m what ya call a travelin’ man
Each day I work from town to town
On the road is where I’m bound

Every day it’s something new
Earning my pay the way I do
And when my 9 to 5 is through
I need my dinner and some brew

(chorus) This tomb of a hotel room just ain’t no home to me
Set my sights on those party lights
The first bar that I see
They’re in all shapes and sizes, but each one hypnotizes
Cold beer, music and TV
If a barstool’s open then it’s good enough for me

Shaking off another day
The dust and dirt along the way
I did my work, it’s time to play
I’ve got a thirst I must obey

Plop down that coaster and a glass
Cause I’ve just plum run out of gas
Pick me up, lighten my load
By break of day I hit the road

(chorus)

I won’t know anyone around
But I know that jukebox sound
I recognize that Miller sign
And everyone I love is on my mind

Cause when you pull up to that bar
And that bartender fills your jar
You might be wishing on a star
It don’t matter where you are

(chorus)
