HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…
Psychedelic Folk. Ever meet that special someone in a laundromat? Ever do it on top the dryer? Either way, you’re sure to dig this clean groove. Compilation by Stephen L. Krell and Gene Eric Mann.

I got the speakers turned all the way up Gene!
We've been through a lot. Remember all the song writing challenges at EZFolk? I never thought I would have so many friends that I will never meet in person.
Your last song is something to be proud of. I was taken by the lyrics bouncing between acceptance and denial. Steve mentioned the chord changes. Mark talked about the weight of the message.
We were honored that you asked us for a little help.

Greg, Steve, Mark:
I am so touched, so moved. This final mix down brought a tear to my eye and a chill to my bone. Y'all handle this song with great care and delicacy and made a marvelous bit of music. I'm right proud of all of you and my friendship with you. I'm very lucky to have had this chance to make this beautiful song with such beautiful souls with what days I've been graced with. Thank you all so very much!

A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.

A fun little Blues jam. The BG rhythm/drums were generated with the Yamaha E313 KB. All other noises are my fault.

If someone can do some Bodhran drum in the final mix it would add a lot. Rick's songs always had the beat and place for one in them. Great job Greg. Great lyrics Mr. Mann
This is the bonus track for "The Best of GEM" playlist.

“How To Assemble Your Android”
Yesterday a box of parts came to my front door
I thought she came assembled, ready to be my whore
Tore the box apart and to no one’s surprise I was missing…
Just listen in headphones. Very juicy. You really did a great job with this, Colleen -- the headphones prove you know how to mix it up! Good, clean, fun mastering job -- I'm impressed!
In one hour or less - with mallets.
I guess I'm just the guy to do the mechanical, electronic, energized, futuristic version :)
The end is the best part.
Great on headphones! A fabulous, delicious, fun compilation of "mechanical, electronic, energized, futuristic" sounds. Very clever, witty story told in sound effects. High five, Dude!
Clean mix down, superb execution and delivery of vocals and instruments, both guitars and the drums and keyboard samples too. The mix down and mastering is top notch. Delicious!
This is my cover of the Twin Peaks Theme, "Falling."
I've always adored the vibe of this series. This is my attempt to capture how it makes me feel. The original has music by Angelo Badalamenti and lyrics by David Lynch.
You'll have to be…
Had to play it again, with the volume turned up, to realize that the banjo sample is actually coming into play a lot earlier than I first recognized. This is a really happening mix down that needs to be heard at high volume. GREAT JOB!

Hey, it's been a while hearing something new from you! What a treat! It's a groovy beat with some happening, psychedelic background sounds adding color and flavor. Fabulous! Is that a banjo at the end? Very groovy, very cool.
"...used to treat schizophrenia (including adolescent schizophrenia), schizoaffective disorder, the mixed and manic states of bipolar disorder, and irritability in people with autism."
Warning -- listening to this mix down may cause weight gain, diabetes, and death in people with dementia. :D
A powerful, mind-bending mix of sounds. It gets under the skin. Righteous!
Out of nothing is eventually generated something -- that's how we all got here, right? So 6-6=1, if you give it time -- except there was no time-space continuum before the Big Bang... I'm confused, what were we talking about again? Oh yeah, another cool compilation of delightful sounds, mixed down in a marvelous fashion.
There's a '60s Motown flavor to this one, while yet clearly wrapped in a Collective Noun sound. It'd be interesting -- to me, anyway -- to hear a vocal track to some of these groovy mix downs.
Again, it is that busy bass that delights me most. You're a very talented percussionist as well. And your gift at the keys is a psychedelic one. But you know your way around the guitar neck as well. Fabulous.
At first I thought I was hearing a bass line that could have backed up Bob Dylan or Jimi Hendrix on "All Along the Watchtower," but the guitar and keys kicked in and took everything to another dimension. And the keys and guitar blend so magically together. Colorful! Happening!
That's some impressive percussion work! Fun keys, interesting bass, wicked scale on the guitar. You are having a blast putting all these tracks together, I can tell. Digging your talent at performing on these instruments and at mixing down and mastering the sound.
a bit dark, a bit jazzy, a bit funky -- not too much of any one thing, but a nice blend of various seasonings. A very professional, tasteful compilation.
I hear this and in my funky mind I see vampires, werewolves, and zombies dancing together in a lonely street under the light of the full moon. Come on, that scene would be as groovy and trippy as it would be scary, no? Again, Rock on!
A chicken corndog would give me the Blues! Reminds me of the Deep Purple-era of Rock music. Digging the drums, bass, keyboards, and guitar. Power! Rock on!
Comments on Gene Eric Mann's stuff

Paul Siegmund turned me on to you...
Thanks, Gene. It's been a pleasure accompanying and listening to your music! I'll always treasure our exchanges.
*AND NOW THAT I'M LOGGED IN* . . . . . It looks like I have accidently added a little humor as well.

I'm liking the harmonica. Nice one.

This production is particularly choice when heard through headphones. Great job, Ron. Choice sounds, well compiled and mastered.

Sultry -- hot, attractive, passionate -- and jazzy smooth.

There’s a bit of darkness in you, no doubt. But greys are colors too, right? Well, I'm no color tech, but I dig the shade of this number.

This would make for great background music in a James Bond movie.
I especially dig the bass runs in this one -- I love me some busy bass, but this one really gets around!
