So finally a moment to get a real blog put in. I hope to make good use of this “blog” stuff, and really start to share who, and what Future Perfect’s music is about in hopes of a better appreciation for the thought process behind it all. Some producers say they write their music by sitting down and just “going at it” with no conception behind it. Granted, when its time to write, we sit and we “go at it” as well, but there is alot of time, thought, and emotion put into the concepts that lie within our music, and everyone is diffrent in their creative approaches. Alot of the times I find inspiration in the things happening around the world, inside my own personal life, and the thoughts that nag and chew at the back of my skull… as it seems to be the only true way to make the nagging stop. Perhaps its the reason music is such an inpiration to me, and I’m sure that everyone feels the same, otherwise music would not be as powerful as it is. You know alot of things have drastically changed within the last few weeks. Ive seen more division, more angst, and more anxiety from the people around me, and the people through out the rest of the world than ever before, and thats hard to live up to considering the last 8 years or so. Perhaps it could be attributed to the dire need for “change” not only in this country, but throughout the world, and as a reflection of that so many people have put their hopes and emotions into this Presidential race, and to think, that a powerful man would want anything else than more power, HA. It could be for the fact that technology is running rampid, and if you arent at the forfront of it, your being left behind, which can cause fear and anxiety. It could be that finally, after all these years of a MTV induced culture, a credit (or debt depending on how you look at it) based soceity, and a media fueld frenzy have finally started to catch up with the human pysche. Not being able to look 10 mins in front of our faces, we have created something so massive that nothing can control its exuberant growth. It is its own animal now, and we will begin to reap what we have sowed.

Through my 24 years on this Earth, I have come to the realization that my parents weren’t always so wrong about the things they tried to teach us kids. And if there is one thing that is as evident and pure in its most simplistic form, is that  ”You get what you put into it”. For every action, word spoken, thought crossed… there is ALWAYS a reaction to your action. So why did I think that I could get away with it? What made me think I was beyond the laws of the devine? I’ll tell you what did… man’s inherent desire to be his own God, to be his own maker, and to control his own destriny. For the longest time I believed in the propaganda I was told as a child. That we as people could do whatever, be whatever, and partake in whatever our selfish little minds could delude ourselves with. But the truth of the matter is, that we push “capitalisim” and “democracy” down the throats of everyone, and have so for the last 100 years or so. Prior to the monetary system, prior to determing who is “rich” based on the amount of debt and servitude they owe, prior to the concept that in order to be successful, you have to out perform your neighbor, we lived in a world that was very much diffrent. A world that VERY few people are alive to speak about today, and if they were alive then, they surely werent old enough to know what it was really like to live in a normal, commodity and resource based society. We are a generation of another generation built solely on debt. The only thing we know is what the evil of capitalisim has taught us. We have created a society of debt, a country in debt, and more importantly a WORLD that is in debt. But who are they all in debt too? How can you be in debt for something that never existed in the first place? If your having a hard time following exactly what it is that im descirbing here, and are interested in finding out, I will recommend this link here to better explain how the monetary system works. www.zeitgeistmovie.com . Check out the 2nd movie “Addendum”. Its aboslutely free, and will open your eyes to things you had no understanding of, and that no one in our society bothered to teach us in school… it was some how “left out” of our social studies books.

This blog is more than a rant about the evil’s i see in the world, but a glimpse into what drives, and motivates the music you hear from us. The very title of our name “Future Perfect” is a concept that dwells on the world around us, from love, to hate, goverment, social encounters, self-indulgence, religion, thought, theory, concept, and the everything in between. DISCLAIMER: Anything I say, or do wether you agree, or disagree, does not change my opinion of you. If everyone agreed with everyone else, then no one would ever learn anything new. I encourage free-thinkers, and am always open to learn. Please, PLEASE enlighten me, for I know nothing, and claim to know nothing, and am but a humble peasent sharing my thoughts and outlook of the world i live in.  And although I can be passionate about them, if I believe in something, and i mean truely believe in it, then you will see that passion demonstrated, which is exactly what your seeing, andhearing now. I think in the end, we all want the samethings though. To be “home”, to give something more to our children, family, and friends than what we had. And yes,  even the ruthless, greedy, and powerful men of this world love someone… or at least they did at some point, and perhaps they still do. And thats important to remember… I hope i can always tell myself that. Thats the end for this go around…
