Name: Lift Me Up by ZenGazer in The Awesome Awesomest
Duration: 3 min 41 s
Description: A song from my old band, Mercy Corps, back in the 2000s. Still hungover from the alt-rawk 90s we started to mess with dance punk. I went big crazy with the Moog on the verses. Too much?

This old band of yours is phenomenal!  I've never heard dance punk before, but if it's like this, I should love it!  Killer groove, and vocals are on point!  Love this!

Very cool intro! Great work with that rhythm guitar and the vocals. Nice job!

I was thinking of using this “Lift Me Up“music from your post for the advert. and you would get paid $500 if you approve me, send me a DM Is that okay with you?

The Awesome Awesomest

MELOMANIAC

Composed in 2017.

Remastered in April 2025.

The people I follow know that sooner or later I'll visit their SC page to listen to their compositions. It's a ritual I do 4-5 times a year. And when I say listen... I mean really listen.

I do it because I like certain styles. Other times it's the technique. Other times it's the composition. Other times... simply to learn.
The truth is that music, as an element of communication, tells me a lot about the creator's intention, how it interprets certain themes, and even conveys a certain profile of the composer himself.

It's hard to explain, but it's as I say.

This composition is introspective and brings together some of my favorite styles, such as melodic, rock, and electronic.

I named it this because it corresponds to a period when my listening became more pronounced and I didn't have anyone to listen to me at the time.

It's certainly a strange composition, especially because of certain percussion sections (understood as self-criticism).

I will be grateful for your comments, as always.

Thank you for your time.

(Dragging My Butt) Into The Sunshine

Produccion,bateria y teclados San Kajati(desde Valencia)todo lo demas yo.
Los peores sueños
                 Am-Em-Dm-Am

No voy a ir 
Dónde no puedo 
Por ahí pueden venir 
Los peores sueños 
Pensaba en vos 
Mirando de nuevo 
El juego, el color 
El otro veneno 
Las luces veo al fin 
Alumbran el piso 
Cuando vienen a mí 
Se vuelven pasillos 
Perdido en un laberinto 
Cerca del río 
Me pongo a caminar 
La salida persigo...

☠️ Poisonous Venom is a gritty reminder to keep your eyes wide open—especially on SoundCloud and in real life. 🐍 This track is all about watching your back and knowing that not everyone around you is solid. Originally Inspired by a hauntingly raw beat from the incredibly talented Kinelle Man, who originally titled it “Eyes in the Back of Your Head”—that concept alone sparked the whole chorus and energy for this joint. https://on.soundcloud.com/YcCbKErRiwCzFO5Qa7

Big salute to Kinelle Man for the inspiration, and mad love to all the other dope producers I’ve had the pleasure to work with:
God of Headnod, Butch Brownstone, DKODA, Eweezy, V. Nebula, Nu-Clear-Hodge, Weatherman XXL, Jay Coke, Burnseych7, MJBEATS, st. bird, Linkrust, RaimosS MaximouS and Beekool—y’all the backbone behind the sound.

Salute 🫡✨🎧🎶—stay sharp, stay real, and keep those eyes open.💯

Attention ‼️‼️‼️

Decided to post back up the original version of Poisonous Venom with V. Nebula’s beat—after really sitting with it, I felt the flow hit more naturally. The BPM on Kinelle Man’s version was just a bit too fast once I tried laying the vocals back over it, even though it was originally intended for his track.

Big love and major respect to both V. Nebula and Kinelle Man—two incredibly talented producers who both brought 🔥 to the table. This was an honest mix-up on my end, and I truly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding.

Please be sure to show love to both producers, because they both helped bring this track to life in powerful ways.

Thank you all for your continued support and love 💕
More to come—stay tuned 🎶💯

Poisonous Venom (Prod. V. Nebula)

Black Petals is about staying strong—even when life feels too heavy to carry. This track dives deep into some of the darkest moments I faced growing up, the kind that nearly broke me. But it’s also a reminder: there’s still beauty in the struggle. 🌑🌸

This beautiful beat was produced by the incredibly talented Eweezy, someone who’s believed in me since day one. He saw something in me I hadn’t even discovered yet—and for that, I’m forever grateful. 🙏🏽

Fun fact: The male adlib you hear in the second verse is my real brother—someone who literally saved my life when I no longer wanted to be here. Love you big bro… always. 🖤

Black Petals (Prod. Eweezy)

Cast of characters:

Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition, arrangement, and Fender Jaguar foundational rhythm guitar

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ, envelope synth, vocals along with Josh

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

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

Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– Fender Stratocaster electric guitar

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–Fender Nashville Telecaster electric guitar, sitar, mix, master, and production

This song began its life in Poland, where our resident surf rock specialist, Artur, composed it on his giutar. He is a brilliant composer and expert player, so we're always glad to receive music from him.

Artur gave it to JJ to start the project, so JJ was first to the trough here, adding his breathy, moving organ and envelope synth throughout. Ken came along shorly after to give the song its heartbeat, adding his triumphant drums. As soon as he had a beat to play to, Josh added his four string fretless bass to the mix, completing the rhythm section.

Now it was the other guitarists turn to take a whack at it. Tez was first up, adding the magical the first and third solos, in the verse sections. He also lit up the intro and outro sections with some dynamic guitar solos, as well. Stephen went last, filling in the second and fourth solo sections in the choruses, as well as a textural guitar that you hear through most of the song. He also added the exotic sitar you hear in about the middle.

Once we had it in the bag, we asked Stephen to produce it for us, which he did in his always trained, professional manner.

This is the eighth song we've done with Artur over the past about year and a half. We adore his music and him as a person, too. If you dig this song, you should hop over to his page and have a listen in case you're not already familiar. He loves surf music, and wanted to note the passing of surf rock legend, Brian Wilson this week. Wilson was more than just Pet Sounds, although that album is top class. He was a surf rock pioneer, who influenced a whole genre of music; a genre that's near and dear to Artur's heart.

We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by Surfers Like Us:
We all live between Sun and Moon
Love and Peace
That's all what we do

Between Sun and Moon (Eclectic Collective)

Sometimes the strongest people are the quietest.
This song is a voice for the ones you don’t always see, the survivors behind the smile, the ones still standing after everything tried to break them.
It’s not just a song... it’s a reminder to look closer, care deeper, and never underestimate quiet strength. 💔🫶🌙
If you know someone like this, let them know.
They're still here. And that means everything. 💜

****Lyrics****

I’ve met them.
I’m one of them.
The quiet survivors.
The ones who walk through life like nothing’s wrong,
but they’re holding themselves together with threads.
This song is for them.
And for you, so you don’t miss what they carry.

They hide the worst of it behind a tired smile
Say, “It’s nothing,” when it’s everything, but that’s their style
They walk through fires no one sees, and still they care
They’re breaking in a room full of people unaware

And you don’t know
The weight they carry as they go
But I’ve seen the nights
They lose the fight
And still, they breathe

Their scars tell a story
They’re the pages that pain couldn’t burn
Every line a war they survived
Every mark a truth they earned
You might think they’re shattered
But there’s strength in every piece
They’re not weak, they’re not broken
They’re just, healing, underneath

They whisper cries so no one else will hear
Hold the world together, even drowning in their fear
They give their love, even when none comes back their way
And still they show up, still they hope, every day

And you don’t see
How hard it is just to be
But I’ve watched them stand
With shaking hands
And still, they give

Their scars tell a story
They’re the pages that pain couldn’t burn
Every line a war they survived
Every mark a truth they earned
You might think they’re shattered
But there’s strength in every piece
They’re not weak, they’re not broken
They’re just, healing, underneath

You don’t see the nights they cry into their sleeve
Or how brave it is to simply, still believe
You pass them in the street, at work, at home, each day
Smiling, helping, laughing, while their heart slips away

You might think you’d recognize someone who’s barely hanging on
But survivors don’t always look broken
They look like parents, friends, coworkers, kids
They look like people you love

So pay attention
Ask gently
Listen longer

Because some people are fighting for their lives
Behind quiet eyes and steady hands

And if you see someone like that, really see them,
Remind them,
They are a survivor
And that, is something to be proud of

Behind Quiet Eyes

Lyrics:
In the hush of midnight’s dreary veil
Where shadows whisper, weak and frail
A tapping stirs the silent air
A fleeting guest—yet none is there
Only echoes, soft and bare
Murmur low, “No more, beware.”

In bleak December’s fading glow
Each ember casts its ghostly show
I seek to flee the sorrow’s sting
A name unspoken, lost to spring
Her radiance dim, no angels sing
Forever gone, no offering

The curtains sway, their silken cry
Ignites a dread I can’t deny
My heart, it pounds, repeats the plea
“Some stranger knocks, it must be thee.”
But darkness greets my opened door
A void that whispers,“Nevermore.”

Deep in that black, I stand and peer
Dreams of mortals quake with fear
The stillness holds no fleeting sign,
Save one soft word, a faint design.
Her name I breathe, the air’s reply
A shadowed echo, cold and sly

The raven comes, with stately grace
No bow, no pause, it claims its place
Above my door, its eyes like flame
A lord of night, without a name
Its voice, a blade, cuts through the lore
One word it speaks:“Nevermore.

So leave me now, this shadowed fiend
Your cursed word has torn, has leaned
Take back your plume, your lie, your sting
And let my heart no longer cling
Yet still you sit, unmoved, severe
Your shadow binds me—ever here

NeverMore
