THE ALBUMS I WROTE DURING THE LOCKDOWN OF 2020 DURING THE COVID CRISIS... "THE COVID CHRONICLES"


This iconic album I wrote in my collection, was a snapshot of me during the LOCKDOWN of 2020... "THESE UNCERTAIN TIMES"... During the initial phase of the COVID CRISIS... It was the scariest time of my life in 2020, when people I knew were dying, lot's of deciet, the beginnings of the division and estrangement of my family and friends... Relationships were strained, abandonment, contempt, and isolation... I wrote this album then did a follow up the last half of the year called "QUARANTINE DAYS", which was more upbeat, and aggressive, and fun... Then I wrote a dark ambient album called "Preying for the Plagued" under the name "Michael D'Orazio and the Chamber of Horrors", which was well received on my Doom Jazz / Dark Ambient playlist.,.. Then after that my life went downhill with money problems, stalkers, abusive landlords, family problems, illness, and alcoholism.... That's after Biden gave us two payments a month on EBT, and I decided to use the money to buy fruit and make homemade wines... Then I started drinking all my batches, giving some away.... After that life became a turbulent rocky road full of non productivity, and it made me lose a healthy appetite... Thank God William Burroughs, and Charles Bukowski's life, inspired me to suck it up, and live by their methods, and approaches to hardship and be a Fucking Artist warrior... This album also captured the FIREWORKS of 2020 in my neighborhood before they made it illegal to shoot Fireworks in town... It sounded like I was in the middle of the Revolutionary War... Of 1776.... So I recorded and sampled what I heard in my apartment.... It was incredible.... Lastly After I wrote "PREYING FOR THE PLAGUED", I did a four song follow up called "THE SOUNDS MADE BY PEOPLE".... Then that was as far as I got... During this period.... (Then later compiled all the work on one album called "THE COVID CHRONICLES" under my real name MICHAEL D'ORAZIO....)
