EP coming soon
It’s a huge thing for me. It might not be so big to others but getting my music properly record is huge to me. Currently we are correcting some mixing flaws. Then we will be Mastering the songs. What I did learn was you need to be there during the mixing. The creative process to a song can sometimes be difficult to explain to an engineer. Being there would correct this. How you write a song and trying to explain to a recording engineer can be difficult. But being there it is easier to explain.

My life with cats
Many times, I would like to hang with cats. I peaceful life full of naps and quiet conversation. When adventure happens, it is always with me in toe. A life with cats is what I wish for. The complexity of human existence is just too much to endure. But a life with cats is predictable, enchanting, tranquil and full of love. Just in my world I want to live with cats. Like reading books for company of strangers. A life with cats. I wish my world could be filled with such simplicity. It’s the benign goal to be surreal. A life cats…come with me and see my world

5 song EP
Just finished up today with the recording of the 5 song EP. Mixing will start on the 23rd. There were some delays during the sessions. I kept being scheduled for 4 to 10 pm and there is no way I would schedule that time slot. I work in the trades, and we wake up at 5am so 10 pm is like 2am. No way. Anyways… things are sounding awesome. The sessions guitarist worked out great. He added to the songs in a way I was hoping he would. I can’t convey every aspect of a song to a musician. You must be able to take a melody and turn it into a song if you want to be a sessions musician. It’s a different class of musician. It’s being creative all the time which is very difficult to do. Looking forward to distributing the music. It will be sent out as promotional material and digital distribution.

Where did Dess come from
I was hanging in my bedroom doing nothing. I had a copy of Rolling Stone on my nightstand. The windows to this bedroom were open. What name am I going to use for music is what I was thinking about. Or what they call stage name. I had just started writing music again after many years of hiatus. I just stopped thinking and working on songs because I developed a career and didn’t realize that you can do it in parallel to your pay rent career (song writing). Then I desperately wanted music back in my life because it can be satisfying to write a song and soul filling. It’s an accomplishment.
Ok where was I… well laying in bed looking for direction a gust of wind came through the room and turned the pages of the magazine Rolling Stone. The pages blew open and a voice in my head said” this is your name. “It was an article on Lady Gaga. And the title of the article was “GODDESS,” but the word was split in two. With God above Dess. Why they did it that way IDK. When the voice said this is your name the pages stopped turning and the word Dess stood out. Dermondy is the name of a street, spelled wrong, that I grew up on in the projects in Waltham Massachusetts as a young man. I loved living there and the people I grew up with while there.

Protesting about cash
Rebeling against someone who is rich or well off is not a subject to exsplore. Because a person has done well in society does not make them a target for rebellion. It is not the correct path to take. You can learn from these folks in a positive way. People have been after a rich man in this country because he is successful not because they disagree on his statements. Don't hate people because they have succeeded but learn from them. Learn how they became successful. Follow what they have done. Learn from there mistakes. Peace!!!

US District Court rulings
There are 94 District Courts in the United States. Are we now going to have 94 Judges blocking Presidents. Doesn't sound right does it? Supreme Court should be making decistions of that nature. Maybe I don't understand the process but I would say I'am close to the solution.

Song writing credit
There are many people who don’t understand how song writing credit is given. The person who comes up with the melody and the person who writes the lyrics. That’s the song writers. The drummer, bass and lead guitarist are not given credit. If you improve the song with your guitaring ability that does not give you credit. Coming up with the bass line to a song does not give you credit. Playing drums on a recording does not give you credit for writing the song.
I’m amazed by the amount of people and professional musicians who don’t understand this. Drummers who get upset because they are not given credit for writing the song. Other members of a band who leave because they were not given credit. They do not understand who gets credit.
A melody is just how the song sounds. As it progresses in time. You do not contribute to the melody because you played it better than the person who came up with the melody.
Some bands give everyone in the band song writing credit because they choose to do so.

Hay wait I'm trying to write a song
Well, we just started to record an EP. The good news to me is that the audio engineer was hearing different words that what was being sung. That’s my ultimate approval. When you hear your own words that don't exist. A song writers’ perspective is that a song needs to appeal to many people. The lyrics can sound like a different song to them. Then that’s awesome. Because the song means something to them. It has the lyrics that they want to hear. They hear a diferent meaning to the song which is awesome It might not be the lyrics that’s on the song, but the song has taken a different meaning for them. That is the goal of a song writer. Or my goal. Peace love life

Spider One listen up bro
Spider One listen bro... that was me at the Middle East saying F Bowie. Thanks for writing a song about it!! Please sing some of your early releases just a couple. Why don't you do any of them off your first album?!!! Why? Bad blood with the record company? Dude it is awesome music. I went to Kenmore Square that day you played to see The Fighting Cocks. Basic rock and roll band and good at that. When you hit the stage, I almost fell over. I was a young man looking for new music and you delivered. I was floored by your music. Please play one or two off your first album Please. Orginizized and Strike The Match would satisfy my soul. Pease bro Love you come home

I would like to contribute to the big book
My goal is to contribute to the large book. This is a book of continuing writing that people contribute to. I'm not sure I can finish this book. I'm not sure that I can explain my self through songs on what I'M TRYING TO SAY. But that is the goal of my song writing. I'm not even sure. I was told to contribute.
The large book is a compilation of many artist contributions. It is a bit of a complicated subject that I don't even fully understand. Other than it has come to me in the form of dreams. Stay tuned!!

OK the SEx Pistals
ok They were living where we all wanted to be. On the outskirts of society, they were, and we weren’t. We would travel to Cambridge Massachusetts to hang out with the society that we wanted to live. The outskirts to our society in Boston was Cambridge Massachusetts. We would go down there and hang out. Watch older kids in what they did. Just watch them. What they did and how they acted. That was Harvard Square to me. I loved going there as a young man. Going downtown to Harvard Square was big news. It was a bus ride across town to a MBTA station and then to our homeland. Harvard Square. And all the students who lived there. Well, we would hang out in the square watching the whole society unfold in front of my eyes at 15. Love Life… I don't know how to eat, breath or nothing right now

Welcome Brazil
I would like to welcome my friends from Brazil. Thanks for coming onboard. Welcome to my world, your my friend!!!
Being in a commune, WOW check it out
So, I have been asked about being part of a commune. I love the ideals of a commune where people live together and make life happen. The fact is people suck, and it will never happen. To me, living together and being part of a group of people who believe in just living life without stress is awesome. But it will not be apart of reality. I hate to say it but communes don’t work and never will. So lay it to rest. The commune society that you wish for will never happen.
You now but today with the heroin society and living in the woods while doing heroin is possible. A heroin commune is possible and happening today. Everybody sits around and shoots heroin, wow isn’t that awesome.
The commune I was interested in is where people live together and help each other out. Plant food, talk together, live together and enjoy life to it’s fullest. ITS NOT POSSIBLE TODAY WITH THE HERION influence. Ok, the drug of your generation has taken over. Life as a norm will never happen with heroin as the sole source of interpretation of life. Are you listening!!! The people of Afghanistan and other countries who promote heroin use are trying to kill you. Welcome to my world, love you always your brother DESSS

Overtime pay
It seems to me that many writers are suggesting that overtime pay is part of a base pay. When reporting pay, they are using overtime as persons yearly pay. It should not be reported as such. Many workers in the northeast work overtime to make ends meet. My feeling is that it should be for more than making ends meet. To buy things maybe you would not normally buy. Take vacation to an island for relaxation. The recent surge in pay across the USA is reaction to the high cost of living. People at a white-collar job are showing jealousy towards trade workers. By attacking the pay rate. Attaching overtime to the article to suggest it is their base rate. I have noticed this reading articles. They also start adding benefits to the article. To bring the base rate up. This is not normal conversation when talking about hourly rate. Normally when talking about an hourly rate we simply use what the rate is and not calculate benefits. This shows jealousy towards the workers. Many in white-collar work need pay increases also. You’re making enough if you’re in the northeast at $80,000 per year (this does not include benefits). You will have a hard time surviving without overtime because of the cost of living in these areas. Boston, New York, New Jersey and others.
When writing an article about a worker asking for an hourly rate increase let’s keep it to what they make per hour. Then we know you are reporting and not bashing the workers who are simply asking for a rase to sustain a living. Maybe you should ask for a raise also. $60 per hour in the northeast is not out of hand for a career employment. A job that requires knowledge and training. It not huge amount it is what’s required to live in these areas of the country

Let me try to explain
Let me try to explain. I enter the passage through images that enter my thoughts. The images are completely different than the subject I talk about. But they add up to the truth or outcome. It is not always recognizable when occurring. It can be months later that I realize what the images were telling me. They are always images in my mind. They do add up. Does that help you understand?

Where do we line. Why don't we meet anymore
Some people have written me and asked why I open up my blog. Well, because it is digital. The digital world is where we are headed. People’s views, thoughts, opinions will be available online. You won’t have to ask or talk to a person to find answers you just look them up. We are becoming distant meaning there will be no reason to meet people. I can follow you online and understand your thoughts online. Today we understand people by meeting them and talking to them in the future this will not be needed…this I know This I have seen…stay tuned for more vision
Well MOM i'm Here
Well, I was thinking when I meet your mom. It was October of 1993. She was gorgeous to me. Late 80's style hair. She hung out at a place called the Reef. It was a local joint that was around the corner from me. Walking distance which is what I liked. I was either there or at the PRESS BOX in Waltham Massachusetts. When I found your mother, I never went any where but to her place. She would see me come in the door and her boyfriend would exit out the back door. She was so pretty to me nothing was going to stop me. Ya it was 1993 in October I remember. If you don’t believe me, ask your aunts, they will tell you that it is the truth. I remember 1993 because grunge music was still evolving. Pearl Jam was on TV and Edy Vedder was complaining about making money. He would rather be poor well that’s what he was saying at the time. Me and your mom were hanging out in Newton Massachusetts, but I don’t remember the place. It was a place she wanted to go to. Nobody bother us there that I remember. We were young and sometimes people would want to bother me because I was with a beautiful woman…your mom. They would leave after I talked to them and explained that she was mine!!!

Cava
I was listening to Kevin O’Leary about stop spending money eating out. So., I picked up the ingredients to take over my craving for Cava. Basically, a salad with chicken and rice that you put what ever ingredients you want in it. I was going to beat the system and save money, eat health and win win win. Boy was I wrong. It was not the same as Cava. I’m going to investigate why it wasn’t as good. In the meantime, tell Kevin O’Leary that eating out, the food somehow tastes better not sure why? Stay tuned…

Corey Feldman tour 2024
Ok so there has been some controversy with Cory Feldman. The first one was whether he was serious about playing music or was his tour a joke. It’s no joke. Cory is dead serious about having a band. There was a bunch of Instagram posts stating he was not serious. He is. Then after everyone realized that he is serious it turned into a solo that he was doing on a guitar. Many “critics” stated that it was not him on guitar playing the solo. It is him. Fed Durst sat in on Cories show to confirm that it is him on guitar playing the solo. So, we have gone from, Cory is not serious to yes, he is serious but it’s not him on guitar to yes, it is him on guitar. Cory is dead serious about having a band and being on tour. For all you bedroom guitarist out there who are on Instagram criticizing him take a look at your situation. You’re in the bedroom and will never be on tour. Cory is on tour and has a band that he put together and rehearsed enough to go on tour with a major band called Limp Bizkit who has several number one hits over the years. So, for all you jackasses out here who think Cory is not for real…he is!! He’s got a band, and he is performing most nights, and you are not. You’re the joke dude, not Cory. I stand tall next to him because he is doing what I dream of doing.

As boring as this topic is I would like to show support for the Federal Reserve for bring inflation down to 2%. It’s a thankless job with many critics. This is an extremely important number to reach in the number one economy of the world and they did it. Yes, I did not believe in their direction and leadership on many occasions, and they proved me wrong. Well done!!

Rory Gallager
Hay Rory look it bro your time is coming do. For years it was a mystery on who auditioned for the Rolling Stones back in 1975. I have been researching the Rolling Stones for many years, well sense I was a youth. It was never mentioned who auditioned for the Stones when Brian Johns was kicked out and died. You never heard who the guitarist was who tried out for the Stones. A number one band for that generation and beyond. The Stones are still relevant today as I write this. One guitarist was interviewed by the members of the Rolling Stones. His name was and still is Rory Gallager. He auditioned for the Stones. Rory weas simply too good of a guitarist to join the Stones. I mean who wants a dynamite guitarist running around stealing the show. No body and including Keef. Check him out… because of social media his name and legacy is coming around and for good reason. Rory was and still is a phenomenal guitarist. Check him out on social media. He is alive and well. Rory Gallager a candidate for the Rolling Stones back in 1969 kick ass bro!! I wish I was a candidate for the Stones..
Retail shop owners...heads up!!
I would like to talk to convenance store owners for a moment. There is a group of stores in the Boston area that I need to talk to. I can’t mention their name but most people from Boston know who I’m talking to. They allow drug addicts to hang in front of their store and panhandle for cash. You have my sympathy but there is help available so seek it out. But what I want to talk about is the number of fingerprints on the glass door to your store. Will you please clean the glass 4 times a month. I will not enter your stores because of the fingerprints on the glass. It is disgusting and potentially disease-ridden fingerprints. Please pay your employees to clean the glass to your store daily. Thanks!! Every store in Boston has drug addicts in front of panhandling for money. I find it harassing and do not enter or go near you convenance store. OK!!! Clean the Glass.com …love you

Should I have a career or deal drugs???
Ok I'm working on a career in music. Why? Because it's what me and many others try to do. We want in!! I have a career and I do not deal drugs to afford music. Having a career in parallel with your music career is the answer. Some people promote drug dealing to afford a music career. These dudes are in prison today...OK?
A life in prison is not a career...talk to me bro!!
Calogne or perfume
Ok look it. Don't anyone get offended by this, but I need to tell people about it. If you’re going to wear Cologne perfume it needs to be expensive otherwise don't wear it. I have had it with walking behind people who buy cheap cologne or perfume. It sucks and makes me gage to smell cheap fragrance. You will smell much prettier on your own. Trust me you do.

If someone would like to prove me wrong please let me know. I have had nothing but trouble with Canva to the point I'm sick of visiting their site. That’s all I will say to my experience with Canva

A problem to society
Well…what’s going on is it’s time to pick up a book and read. When you read you become educated, and when you become educated, you become a problem for society. The world wants nothing more than you to become ordinary. When you become ordinary, you’re not a problem. There is nothing worse in this word than someone who questions society. IT’S TIME TO START READING. Find a book that will make you question. Question what? Question the start of humanity. When did it begin. / Where did it fault. At what point was there no return.Is it your desire? It is your mission to become a problem to society. Answer my question… Love always, Dess
