Submerged Memories Continues/Bronx, Housing, and Wisdom Teeth/Facebook Friends...

Hey everyone, felt I should update everyone on the progress of "Submerged Memories". On Saturday evening around 1am in the morning I decided I was not personally happy with the end result of the album. The point of the album was to represent the past from 2005 to now, I felt that it represented only one-fourth of the overall events that took place. So I instead have decided to continue writing music for the album. That evening, I composed an ambient instrumental titled "Zero Degrees" representing sleeping in the first shelter I was at on Long Island, we had a snow storm that night and instead of sleeping, I actually watched it. I was very fascinated by how beautiful it was, and how bad it got. Winter is a reoccuring theme in some of my songs since winter is to me the worst time of the year. Brings back all the bad memories for me, and makes me remember something i'd rather disappear which will appear or have already been made in to a song for this album. I have also taken songs from the defunct "SEX" album which will be recreated from scratch later on another program or not at all depending on where I am at that point in time. Because of this, a lot of the songs being finished now are much more dance oriented but they now sound closer to a part of this project with the addition of guitars since that is the predominant sound of the album so far. So far twenty tracks have been composed for the album and I won't be stopping anytime soon. This might be considered a completely seperate album at this point from "Forest Of Memories" and thats fine with me. FOM is a great record and can stand on its own as the first part in an overall larger storyline. But Submerged Memories will probably be released on a seperate date from "Forest Of Memories" as to not conflict with me promoting that record since these albums will be distinctly different from each other. I will keep everyone posted on any new information I have to give on the process of Submerged Memories. And i'm also sure that a lot of people remember an album named "Submerged Memories Vol. 1" was shown on my music Facebook a while ago. I will still be releasing that project of old demos and songs but under a different name so don't worry. That will be dealt with when I get to it. As for "Forest Of Memories" at this point, its all finished, just doing some minor tweaks before exporting the album. Then I will be making things ready for the release late this Summer or early Fall.

Currently at Fountain House, went with Mike this morning to check out his new apartment which is twice the size of his old apartment which is nice. But a lot of work has to be done before we move in next week. It is located in the Bronx which I have no problem with, even more funny is how we are located directly a block away from a hospital. But other than that it was very nice, great assortment of places to get things. He is currently looking for a mattress for himself that way I would get the futon we currently use and i'd sleep in the living on the futon. In the meantime I am still looking for a place with my friend Larry. So far I have no idea where anything is on that front since the lady has yet to get back to us but I will talk to Larry sometime this week about it and hopefully we can get the ball rolling on that. I also have to check in sometime today about an appointment that I need made for me to get my Wisdom Teeth removed. I am really nervous and not looking forward to that, I have been told how the procedure takes place and I pretty much turned to mush after I heard about the stitches that would be going into my mouth. I hate dentists to begin with but I am prepared to make my smile better even if my mouth and sanity have to get murdered in the process.

I have also notified most if not all of my friends that I was close with on Facebook via email that I would like to continue talking to them. Hopefully I will be able to and their won't be any problems as a lot of them are pretty nice and decent people which is hard to come by these days. I respect them and think a lot of them are very cool. And I hope to speak to them all soon. Okay, well Mike just got back upstairs so I think that will do it for now. See you all later, have a great day everyone.

Facebook Dies/Sluts & The City/Submerged Memories is announced...

Facebook is gone, reason being that I don't have time to be obsessed over peoples comments, Farmville and other time wasters. So please stop asking me about this, I can't stand being asked over and over again. Now on to more important things, I have started a little series on my YouTube called "Sluts & The City" which is a web reality show, it showcases me and my friends Larry & Paul and countless others. Its pretty much just me and my friends just being us and doing very silly things. So far i've got good feed back from it and I look forward to showing everyone more episodes as they are edited together. I will link the first episode below for you viewing pleasure.

Between all this, I have managed to finish composing "Submerged Memories" which is the second part to a two part album, Forest Of Memories being the first. I will be releasing them seperately as they are both complete different albums but they will be released on the same day. Submerged Memories will detail events throught 2005 to the present. It consists of 15 tracks of music, two of which are instrumentals. Most of the album features guitars which have not been used much on my records but I wanted to go into a different direction with SM because Forest Of Memories was very electronic. I am very proud of both albums and very proud to have gotten some of these demons out of me. I hope my fans enjoy it as well.

In other news I will be updating this page from now on, and I will probably not be doing a set up like this much longer, even if the blog entries are short. But I hope to update you all soon. Enjoy!
