Month full of recording and fools...

Phew, I think this month has been the most I've ever recorded....

Did a bunch of guitar trax for Ultraviolet Landscape...
Reworked a bunch of drum/bass tracks which came out really and overly suprisingly well...
Finished writing all but one song on Acrostics which I may end up moving to another album...
Finished a whole bunch more songs including some preliminary Shapes stuff, and the whole Ethereal Fire album...
Almost mastered the final demos for a bunch more...
Went through a bunch of different fragrances/earth connection oils...
Went through a bunch more tealights and homemade candles...
but, had to deal with these weirdos who apparently think I would want to hang out with them...and quite frankly, they're stupid....and its frustrating since they've all clearly abused the living hell out of drugs which is apparent through they're constant mood swings...

Anyways, things are coming along pretty well in the Warlock department... was listening to the Pneumatology Demo Master in the car and it sounds pretty damn good for something homemade based on the no experience I have in the mastering field...

Burned three other completed ones to skim thru and make those little last minute changeups before I consider them done...

Usually, people would start playing shows around this time, but I am doing things differently. My focus is to finish these first 6 [12 technically] albums that are all solid and different as well as the ones that are "almost done." After that, a quick little revisitation in an isolated recording environment and then a couple weeks of mastering which I am getting quite attuned to and I will launch the little site...

Still not really gonna tell many people about it though... Why? Because, I don't really like many people. Anyways, still in good health... And I tested this little peanut butter/whole wheat protein theory I thought about when I found out about the protein in the first place...

Basically, this is the best protein ever... Mix it in like 5 times a month or more around fish and chicken with occasional pork and its like your body works itself out naturally... I went to the gym once this month and my abs are still ripped as they were after the quick workout...

Its nice to know that crime is getting cleaned up around my area...totally thankful. Hopefully more appealing job opportunities will happen next; there aren't any shipping facilities in this city, nor are there any really interesting jobs...its kind of like the whole city revolves like the wearing down Navy Base...pretty strange.

Either the hackers realized how much they'd been and have been pissing me off and stopped or I finally disabled all of their...."backdoor" ways of intrusive sociopath diseased staring mechanisms of boredom... Seriously, I shouldn't have had to in the first place... Thank god they aren't molesting people or something though... I honestly think that hacking is just as bad as any illicit hard drug out there, and both are a waste of time in my opinion....

Thats about all I can blog of for now...

Did some dry/scratchy vocal recordings earlier... [touch ups before I burn the Holographic Thoughts Demo for car proofing, Acrostics stuff and some UV vox] the Ultraviolet demo is almost ready for the mastering stage...just needs one more drum track revision [far cry/storm] and a few more guitar tracks... liking the change ups though...sounds like an ultraviolet landscape...and its nice to have so many different styles of music in one project as the same thing over and over gets boring...

Must've gone through like.... 60 songs this month... with multilayered vocal tracks...and its actually stress relieving...

The Ethereal Fire Demo in total is up on YouTube....

Productive month.

Reorganization and Stalkers...

Finally organized the YouTube [for the most part] by album... playlists...

Stalkers. The worst kind are your own family members. Recently, I confirmed that a few of my family members - cousins, have been stalking me for whatever reason.  If they aren't pathetic enough already, this just makes me more distant from them.  Fortunately, I have cut them off for the most part...but, it brings up the question..why do people stalk anybody at all? What is the actual point? Are they private detectives in training or something? Who knows...waste of time...

Anyways, working on a new set of paintings revolving around nude women...liking them..

ha.

The Music Industry, and progress...

Finally finished demoing Ultraviolet Landscape...
might do one more divine demo with the new drum track I spent about 3 hours on....

Realizing that I am way more talented/creative and faster than a lot of other musicians out there...
must be my ear for music...mixed with the creativity I manifest...

Finished about 15 new general song ideas as well...

Finished a couple more paintings...

And, am under the impression that people are unlawfully claiming rights to some of my songs.... its pretty disheartening and I've already disputed two wrong claims... which leads to this:

Why, if for any reason at all, do people claim to be "artists" when they just sing/do things over other people's songs and claim they made the whole song? There is a huge difference between a conartist and an artist...

Not only do I write all my music, drums, sounds, instruments, and all...but I also write the words, the vocal melodies, and sing on them... and play guitar... and pretty much all of the above entitles me to rightfully term myself as an artist... However, other people must not be as capable and still get under the impression that they can either just grab a song and run with it or not give any real credit to the person/people making the whole song possible in the first place. This is the number one reason why the music industry is in such bad shape.

Reminds me of the whole Napster thing...yeah, while Britney Spears may not have as much as a right to complain about "stealing" music as Metallica, the whole "I didn't write the song, but I performed it" stigma clouds into all these "Piracy" sites...and it makes perfect sense. Its essentially like this: "I bought the music and chose to put it on my computer, doesn't that mean I own it?" and the other side is like "I released the music for you to buy...doesn't that mean I own it?" Maybe its a sign from the world that cradles us that fraudulent "stolen" creations are not really cool....

Anyways, getting a lot done...

How the News became more corrupt than the government...

So, first the blatant insults to a former and still living president, right after a grandchild of his was born, and now complaints about digital guns being called bad influences...

Back in the days, pre-Spanish-American war, there was this amazing thing called the news. Nobody really had to pay for any stories to run...events noteworthy were shared with the surrounding community known as the world. Enter greed, paranoia, and manipulation. Good ol' Hearst, Rockafellar, and some other idiot savants trying to send themselves to statue status decided to invent something called "Priming." And corruption in the media was born. Next thing you know, there's a war going on between Spain and the U.S., both of which ended up suffering displacements like no other. Keep in mind, I am part Spanish, Native, AND Guamanian...and this idiotic media-made war really messed up a lot of generations before me. So, zoom to the future and good ol' FoxNews is complaining about liberties, supporting censorship and violence simultaneously and paradoxically, while other "outlets" are promoting Kim Kardashian for whatever reason. Then they're supporting "Britney Spears....in the skimpiest of outfits..." and it makes you realize three facts:

1. People are REALLY influenced by the media and it is shameful for such sexist, objectifying, salesperson like representatives to be called newswriters.

2. With all the gangrapes and sexual violence going on recently, wouldn't you think the media would tone down on the whole sex sells atmospherical kind of brainwashing....just to keep things peaceful? Nope. Why? Because they have zombied into perverted, losers obsessing with cotton-linens that stand for the complete opposite of the directions in life they promote...

3. There needs to be better news writers-individual and unbiased IN REPORTING, and less of the plastic island kind of garbage ruining the human world in the realms of wisdom, education, knowledge and understanding. Its no wonder so many people are infected with STDs and Gun-toting Fear Monger Syndrome when so many stories on the news, in the newspapers, and all around revolve around the three biggest human fears: Sex, Popularity, and Death.

Kind of annoying.

Bigger Sculpture...

So, in addition to running thru 3 albums yesterday, I managed to restock on some cool oils...

Peppermint, good for the eyes; some Frankincense, good for general enjoyment of time/clairvoyants [like myself], and Pine Needle extracts really helped solve a dilema... I was really tired/have been most of the week due to either getting woken up early or not getting to bed when laying down...must've been some sort of heat wave reaction... So, I noticed when I mixed up a batch of this distant water from some Himalayan Mountain with the Pine Needle, I was able to immediately clear out congestion from my milk drinking binge the day before yesterday... and, went to sleep after a short while...

Peppermint works in mysterious ways. I accidentally squirted a tiny bit in my eye when I was filling up some diffusing micro bottles the other day and at first I thought I was going blind in that eye for sure... but kept blinking, did a thorough eye rinse and next thing you know, my eye felt sooo good that it was as if the peppermint oil was saying "hey, every now and then I wanna clean your eyes...." It still feels so much better...like any bacteria that was in my eye is permanently burned away without my vision being affected.

Anyhow, finally was able to put three little parts of a sculpture together... I had this dragon sculpture I made from a plastic bottle, some recycled candle holders, and wire...looked like a dragon flying over a volcano.... then I had this tree-like sculpture from welding class [MIG] that I never got to finish, and this other building sculpture [OXY-ACETYLENE] from welding... So, found a way to secure the dragon part over the tree and put the buildings adjacent on a tin container, securing them with an old non-working guitar cable and string...then was able to use more of this left-over tiling glue to permanently put all three objects in unison for a nice bigger sculpture... its still not completely dry and I might use a little more of the glue when it is to fix a certain spot...but now it looks way cool: A rusty tree sculpture with what looks like a mountain around it, the sun/dragon coming through the sun above it, and buildings/city adjacent... Also happened to be the perfect size match to this piece of round marble I found when I was moving out of the old house...gonna be a nice one... might carve some kinda limestone base/some kind of rock base for a little effect...

Found the grinder in the storage...we'll see what happens...

Been polishing the guitar parts for the guitar-ish Warlock albums by getting them down without looking at the frets...Such a good way to train the brain to play...Makes things easier to sing/play with little thought/sluggishness involved...

Probably going to record/re-record [hopefully with no beeping] the whole remainder of the month...
