Attention All Artists & Fans of Art: A reminder.
The fact that you are some sort of artist, be it a musician, a painter, a writer, whatever, does NOT!! I repeat.. does NOT.. make you any better of a person than anyone else. Take a musician for example, they create music.. and it’s just that.. music. Call it what you will.. it’s what people listen to for some sort of entertainment. I’m not saying that it’s not beautiful...

We use ourselves as a frame
Of reference for what is right, but what do we really know? Who is to say what is right? Show me someone who claims to know all, and I’ll show you a self indulgent liar.

We cannot blame the big banks, We cannot blame the corporations, We can only blame our faith in a system that clearly doesn’t work. In history, there has always been a battle between those dawning a new age, and those holding on to tradition. People think this battle is between the rich and the poor, Or big banks and corporations against the people. But again it’s our faith in the...

The Business of Art.
I hate marketing. Well.. I don’t want to go that far I guess. I just hate marketing myself as a musician. The point of it is to get people to listen and buy my music correct? So what do I need to do? Dress up, take a cool picture of me looking serious, post it all over the place, and hope people think I’m cooler than I really am yeah? Make them think.. hey.. this guy seems cooler...

Rule. (I'm fine thanks, how are you?)
Battles I create inside,
The uncertainty that leads me to indecision.Will stray me from the path I lay for myself.
Will put me in the hands of fate, chance, and others who aren’t me.I cannot take this one chance with either.
I must put my life in my hands.No matter how powerful the forces seem.
It’s all facade, it’s all through perspective.
The power that is had, is the...

Different versions of the same thing.
Let me just get something off my chest. I make music. It’s what I do. Not for the money, not for the self imposing fame, but for the fun and the excitement of creation. All that other stuff just comes with the territory I guess, but it’s not what it’s about. We need honest music now more than ever.. yet everyone seems to be different versions of the same thing. I’m lucky...

There is comfort in the sound.
It’s been forever since I’ve actually put something creative out in the world. Sure there was that 1010 “Electronic Music Machine” business. If you haven’t heard it, check it out. It should be posted somewhere on my tumblr..
I just want to proudly say that I am now finally working on my album. If you heard The Electronic Music Machine, just know that it’s...

I want to prove to you that I am something more.
In your eyes, what am I? I am silent and shy. I am quiet and grey and similar and sane. A forever regular; an equilateral shape. I am proper and parallel, for I avoid the aggression of intersections. I am dull in the sense that I am daunted by…
False Profits, victimizers, and Victims.
I’m getting really tired of people trying to sell me things. It’s almost impossible to find anything that isn’t driven by the profit of money. Most of our actions are driven by it. It’s why we set our alarms. It’s why we put up with anything we wouldn’t otherwise. We more often than not forget that we are only people. We are only creatures of this planet...

Little Bubbles.
Recreating a moment is impossible.. It’s a lost cause.. a waste of time..
We can replicate the why, when, where, what, and how..
We can say the same words, do the same things.
But we can never replicate the feeling these moments had the first time around..
So instead of wasting away chasing what was..
We need to allow ourselves to step out of our comfort zones into the unknown..

Change.
Caught up in the moment, this moment being the promise of change. The hope that it’ll be different in the future. I always tell myself that I will change my ways. It’s clear what I need to do, but something prevents me from executing… fear and laziness perhaps.
I opened one of my writing books to vent.. and I read my old writings for the first time.
I can’t help but...
