2 years. Really??

I'm afraid so. I don't even know how I ended up here. I don't even remember the last point or the last entry for this blog.

I have been very very busy lately. At least in 2017.

At the end of 2016 and after been in several bands playing FUCKING SOFT ROCK I ultimately decided to write some songs again and start a new project. Yeah, the project was soft rock with more "aggressive" undertones. It was called NOVIEMBRE X.

I know it is a crappy logo

After 2 months of being enclosed in my bedroom, I came up with 5 songs that I taught a friend who decided to join me. After that, I found a vocalist (girl, female vocalist you know?). She was from Venezuela. Her voice was fine but after a few months I decided to find another vocalist.
I found her at work. We had a lot of fun rehearsing the songs.
After some weeks I decided to record an EP and to do so I needed a drummer. So I put an advertisement on the internet and a very skilled and proficient drummer came along. With that lineup we decided to enter a studio to record.

From L to R: Yours truly, Mane, Tael

We recorded everything ourselves with a little help from the studio's house engineer. Here you can watch part of the process:

Well. After the recording was done, I was very hopeful to "make it". But the lack of market in my dear country made further promotion impossible without big bags of cash.

I decided to move on. FUCK.

So I'm here 1 year later of all that.

1 year has passed and I haven't done anything considerable.

My mind is really confused now. I try to make something but it sounds repetitive.

I try to break to new styles but then I found out they're not my thing. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON.

I don't even have time to pick up my guitar anymore. I have tried to make instrumentals made of electronical artifacts. But nothing.

Probably the inspiration will come back. But then I think: what's the use?

In the meantime I have things to show for. That's my consolation.

Gotta catch 'em all!

There's an old song from an old cartoon show that says something like:

"I wanna be the very best,
Like no one ever was..."

The guy had a goal, clearly. 

THE WORKS II

After I fucking finally got the job in that band and after composing some songs, I decided that I didn't want to continue with them anymore. They were OK guys, not major problems with that. I didn't feel 100% in that band. It was an interesting month though.

Then I received a message from an old acquaintance saying that he wanted to make some music with me. He is into rap (a proper rapper4life) but he wanted to spin that thing around a little bit and give it a different feel. Apparently I was the man for the job. I know him and I know his musical sense (if you will) so I said yes, let's give it a shot. I began to think, and I thought "what if I put some good ole slap bass into it?" Let's see what happens.

A few days after, I received another message from another guy that I know from a 2012 death metal project that I had back then. He was the drummer and I have to say, he's a fucking boss behind the kit. It turns out that he is now picking some musicians to create this almighty metal band with different influences. I was more than glad and honored to be considered to be a part of such an ambitious (in the good sense) project, so obviously I said yes. At the moment he's trying to reunite those bad guys and when it's all set we will get together somewhere to unleash the seven fucking trumpets.

I'm also playing some cards with some girls around. Nothing serious. Music is my only commitment.

And that's it. Apart from partying the fuck out in the summer, whenever I can.

Flatuleitor out.
