FatAss WiFi American Nation - Poetry Slams - Randomness

Sitting in bed - in the bedroom - with the lights off - the air conditioner on full blast - it's a rainy day outside - I'm listening to Imogen Heap's new album "Ellipse" -----and as far as I'm concerned --- this is what makes life worth living. I love how technology allows me to access any album I want to hear from any computer in my house via the wonders of WI-FI. I hereby thank my fore fathers (and mothers...no one ever says anything about the fore mothers) for allowing me to live a life of such excess. It's good to be a fat lazy american. I appreciate the life god has given me and I don't thank him nearly enough for the blessings he bestows on me.

I like to listen to another artists work before I begin to work on music. I find it gives me a sense of direction. I'm not exactly sure where this Imogen Heap album is directing me but I'm really thrilled that I heard her say LEGOLAND EMPIRES just now in the lyrics of the song "EARTH" track 4. Ah, I want to build my own LEGOLAND EMPIRE. I want to hide away there and just play with legos all day long.

I'm finding it very hard to let go of my recluse lifestyle. I like shutting myself off from the rest of the world for long periods of time. It allows me time to find myself again. However, I'm pretty sure I found myself a long time ago. I just don't want to leave the safety of the fold. I did go out recently though. I attended a poetry slam with newest Euphonic Dissonance band mate Sarah Star. Quite a delightful scene they have going at the Agora coffee house. What a incredible outpouring of angry - jagged poetry. It was like an emotional roller coaster ride through my soul. Being a musician and a lyricist I have always been fascinated with the design and execution of poetry. This should be no surprise - I did start reading Shakespeare about the same time I hit puberty. Good lord I was a messed up child. Now I'm a messed up adult. Why is it the world continues to change but I remain the same. I suspect the squids have something to do with it.

Meanwhile at the Agora coffee house..... an honorable mention goes out to poets Seth Walker and Claire Collins. Wow, way to rock the house with some amazing use of the english language.

Seth Walker delivers a message that you just can't ignore even if you don't necessarily agree with it.




Somehow I seriously doubt he gives a sh*t if you don't agree with it. I respect that. His delivery is that of a good novel ..... here in lies that emotional rollercoaster ride I mentioned earlier. I almost cried when he read the open letter to his little brother who was thinking of joining the Navy. By the by ..... Seth ain't too cool with the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and he definitely makes that clear. He's traveling across are great nation with a message for every american and near as I can tell one of those messages is "WAKE THE FU*K UP YOU DUMB ASS LAZY AMERICANS AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE SH*T THAT IS GOING DOWN AROUND YOU". That part of the message I agree with. Check him out at SETHWALKERPOETRY.COM

Now I have to throw a shout out to the poet that invited us to this event. CLAIRE MOTHERFU*KIN' COLLINS is a phenomenal poet that has a delivery that resembles that of a chainsaw buried into your skull. You can tell that she has a message and she'll tear right through you to deliver it.




Hmmm, she seems subdued in that video clip. You're truly missing out. You need to go see her live.

Well, I suppose it's about time I did something productive. Time to take all these influences and put them to work on creations of the Euphonic Dissonance kind. If you're lucky you might hear from me later today with more musical creations from the musical group known as ED. Love you all.

1984 - Second Track with an Official Title from the TECH MESSIAH recording project

More music from the zany labs of Aromatone Recording Studio. Enjoy the madcap adventures of our team Euphonic Dissonance as they set out to destroy the evil empire of the TECH MESSIAH.

I haven't really been able to process this track properly. Some things on the computer still aren't fixed but they will be soon. It's just so much more raw this way. It might be a bit more quiet that our usual mixes. Hope you love the new song.

And the LYRICS if you enjoy reading stuff...


1984




should have paid attention

when the corporations shut our mouths

tied us to a chair

and turned the lights out

in god we trust

on the tit of the government

we suck

pay attention to the screen

remember what you’ve seen

in god we trust

god i hope they remember us

in god we trust

in god we trust

and they say to hell with it

they say oh to hell with it

here comes a candle

to light you to bed

can’t express our point of view

you know exactly what to do

just keep it bottled in

don’t say it, it’s a sin

running around in the rat race

gotta save a little face

just keep it bottled in

don’t say it – it’s a sin

he’s not our messiah

we don’t have to like it

just pray they don’t find us

kick in doors and crush heads

terror swelling to compelling

can’t trust the government

in god we trust

where’s that getting us

hope you like guns

bullet to each head

fade with defined precision

fade to gray with intention

tuck in tight baby girl

daddy’s gonna rule the world

here comes a candle

to light you to bed

here comes a chopper

to chop off your head

iron bars on windows

look at them through the peephole

paranoid delusion

or striking reality

in god we trust

in god we trust

doesn’t seem to matter much

worshipping your idols

here comes a candle

choppers overhead

remain standing

do not move until ordered

rest your precious head

caress away the pain

tuck in tight baby girl

daddy’s gonna rule the world

INSIDE STUDIO - Working on the TECH MESSIAH ALBUM - HEAR NEW TRACKS

Busy busy busy busy busy. Wow, what a creative day this has been. Look at what I have to show for all my sweet labors - an almost finished track which we are calling Tech Messiah 3 for the moment and a fresh concept of something totally new that I've titled New Bass Line (yeah, I didn't spend a lot of time thinking that one up). I have a sneaking premonition that the track titled TECH MESSIAH 3 will probably be the first track of the album. The intro track if you will to this our concept album. Looking forward to finally delivering a finished piece of art to the masses. A long string of events that tell a story of the delivery of the lazy human to a land of thriving technology where you give yourself over to be controlled by the machine. A place where you fall asleep dreaming of jagged metal lips touching your soft skin. We look forward to delivering each and every one of you to your new and rightful place amongst the swarming ** flying ** buzzing ** nonsense ** noise ** bzzz ** bzzz ** bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Here's the tracks.

Tech Messiah 3

New Bass Line

I definitely need more coffee. Not buzzing nearly enough.


Nanotech delivery of Salvation - Be careful which cosmetics you buy

STOP USING COSMETICS!! MICROWAVE THEM BEFORE USE!!!

Click on the picture to be delivered to an article that will show you the truth about what the government is really working on. They say they are developing new more efficient energy strategies, better health care, a healthier planet - and yet nothing ever seems to get better. Nothing really ever CHANGES!!! The truth is those are all just smoke screens for their real agenda. Soon you all will march lock step to the beat of a new drum. You will be driven to productivity by the constant throbbing inside your skull. They will sell these things to you in the form of cosmetics. They will wash away your sins (and your individuality) with new products developed in the labs of DARPA. George Orwell would have sh*t himself if he had lived to see Big Brother crawl through a humans pours and bury propaganda deep inside the living tissue. Thank god for technology. Praise our Tech Messiah. Soon all will call out to him with devotion and praise because the nanotech has latched onto your brainstem and you have no choice. Beware those with too much power. Beware the social elite because all they want to do is control the sheep.

I repeat .... stop using cosmetics. Microwave them before use - that should kill the nanotechnology inside.

Crunkin' Part 3 - New Song Update from the Tech Messiah Album

Hello my pretty little pretties. How are you today? Well, daddy has been hard at work in the studio and here is some fresh sickness for you.

Crunkin' Part 3 - Damn, It Sounds Pretty Good Now .... Doesn't it?

What did you think? I love the new bass part in the hook. Yummy stuff.

It's almost time for vocals and that means that Crunkin' might actually get a real title soon.

More Unfinished Songs from the upcoming Tech Messiah album

Here's a new track for our thirsty fans. If you read the last blog that contained the Crunkin' Messiah track you'll hear that it's coming along quite nicely. Almost sounds like an entire song now. Definitely has a feel to it now. I pulled out the old Boss Hyper Fuzz pedal for the guitar in the hook of the song. God that thing sounds great. That don't make that pedal anymore.

Be sure to leave a comment and tell us what you think of this track.

Chef Ramsey Will Kick Your Cracker Ass !!!!!

Oh, Chef Ramsey - let me count the ways I love you. I would come up with a really large number.



For those of you that don't enjoy the show Hells Kitchen because you think Gordon Ramsey is to abusive - SCREW YOU!!! You obviously haven't worked in many kitchens....have you? This is often the way things are handled in a restaraunt kitchen. It's a high stress environment and people tend to crack. You're working around extremely hot equipment ... it's a million degrees in a kitchen ..... the ovens don't run cold for god's sake ..... you're racing the clock to get the food out to the customer .... you're sweating and rushing and suddenly you just want to friggin' explode!!!! That's what a commercial kitchen is like. It's nothing like your cozy little kitchen at home. Gordon Ramsey knows how to control that type of environment. It's either shape up right the fu*k now or get your ass out of his kitchen. I respect the man for what he does and judging for the restaurants he owns and the 3 or 4 shows he has on television .... he does it really well.

If you don't like all the cursing on the show ..... it's okay, this is America and in this part of the world we bleep that sh*t out. Cause here in America we don't like no wordy dirds on our programs. We also don't like no girls boobies or vagininie to be shown. However, it's perfectly okay to show gratuitous amounts of violence. We like that here in the good ol' USA - don't we? Hey, Chef Ramsey, next season you should seriously punch someone on your show right in the head .... oh no ..... better yet ...... pull a gun on the person and threaten to shoot them!!! Yes, that would friggin' rock!!!



Isn't that righteous? Little Chef Ramsey ... who thinks this stuff up? You internet people always keep me guessing with your mad cap antics. Well, I've had entirely too much coffee and I'm starting to ramble and make no sense to I'm shutting this blog down immediately. Thank you for joining us today and please support us by clicking on the link below and listening to our music on iTunes.  I'm so looking forward to the next episode of Hell's Kitchen - Long live Gordon Ramsey!!!
