The Domination of SIN begins Tomorrow...! DON'T BE SCERRRD...?!?!?!

THANK YOU ALL for your continued support! My new release is tomorrow, MAY 21st, 2021, "Sin Minister" - I think it's going to be a 'Love it/Hate It' kind of album, which is the way I like it!

I am very pleased to share this new album with all of you, for your continued support! So, I have added the FULL version of the song "Turn Me On" (Vocals & Music) for ONLY my N1M listeners/subscribers, to show my gratitude of your continued support - THANK YOU ALL!

Your support continues to fuel my creativity & drive to make more music, in only TRUE... Defective Monk style.

You can stop at my artist page, for your one-stop shop to the multiple digital platforms I am on, along with my social media as well.

Hello everyone who have recently subscribed to my mail listing! THANK YOU!
Hello everyone who has stuck around as a subscriber to my mail listing! THANK YOU!

My 2nd single to my upcoming album release, "Fear Cage", will premiere this upcoming Friday, April 30th, 2021 on YouTube. I hope everyone checks it out this Friday and anytime after Friday... prior to my global album release "Sin Minister" on Friday, May 21st, 2021.

It took a good amount of time to get this done, especially with editing, but I believe the video will visualize the message I am conveying within my song's lyrics and such.

After checking my video Friday and/or after... let people know about it if you like or don't like.

I appreciate everyone's support with the music I create and share with all of you!

Will chat more later...

Thank you again and Best Regards to all...

I have uploaded an album sampler track "Sin Minister - Album Sampler", giving everyone a little taste of what is coming in May 2021.

You will be looking for the album cover I created for the "Sin Minister" album, which I have attached for everyone to check it out as well.

Also, I am creating/editing my upcoming video "Fear Cage", which is taking a good amount of time to get done, but hope to have it all done prior to the album release.

Other than that, everyone take care, keep LOVIN' music !!!

Thank you for your support & very Best Regards,

Defective Monk

Gotta say... glad you're all still here with me! I am grateful and appreciative of your steadfast loyalty to my music... THANK YOU ALL!

Good news!

I have completed ALL my music, mix downs, and mastering of my new album forthcoming, "SiN MiNiSTeR".

This album is "loosely" based of Catholicism's Seven Deadly Sins from the Bible (7 sins are: envy, gluttony, greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath), and each of my songs are based off of one or more of these seven sins.

This new album is on course for a release date in April 2021 or May 2021 and working on 2nd single release with a video to go with it. The single is called "Fear Cage", so be on the lookout for it please.

Take care all, and I look forward to giving you a firm date, along with any comments or questions you may have for me in the future.

Best Regards,
Defective Monk
YOUR Minister of Sinister...

Hope everyone is having a great start to the 2021 New Year!

Recording my final track to my upcoming 3rd release (Sin Minister) this spring 2021 - this final song I am working on is called "Chit Chat Cat".

Also, to make it easier for everyone to get to my newest single "Ruled x 6", I have added my Apple Music & Spotify links to this E- newsletter.

Merry New Year to all...! Thanks for your continued support!

It's been a LONG.... minute, so to speak! I am working hard, to get my upcoming album release completed in FEB 2021, entitled "Sin Minister"!

I can't WAIT to get it released to all of you!

However, I have released TODAY, my brand NEW single to my forthcoming 3rd album, called "Ruled x 6 [Single Edit]". It's essentially, Hallow's Eve or Halloween right now, depending on what part of the world you are located in right now, plus the Day of The Dead tomorrow, NOV 1st.

I figured it would be the most appropriate song to release, because it is about my birthday back in the year 2006 - the date for me on my birthday was....

06 - 06 - 06

So I TRULY hope you ALL enjoy this 1st single of my upcoming 3rd album, "Sin Minister". This song WILL BE available on ALL digital media outlets by the end of next week or sooner, more than likely.

Thank you ALL for your continued support of my music!

Best Regards,

Defective Monk

Hello everyone...!

Hello new subscribers, current subscribers, from the beginning subscribers...!

I hope you are ALL doing great, and are enjoying life, as much as possible!

I am continuing my onslaught of recording, tweaking, mixing, et cetera... during this pandemic time in history. It's time to unleash my heavier guitar driven tacks, instead of my heavy synth tracks of Defective Monk as of late - I hope this appeases "my flock" ?

Two tracks:

One, is "Trenches of EViL [Heavy Guitar Instrumental]" as opposed to the VERY Synth oriented version, currently on my NIM page now. So feel free to compare the two, and let me know which one you prefer...

Two, is a song called "Turn Me On [Heavy Guitar Instrumental]"

Don't worry, BOTH have lyrics forthcoming, when I am VERY close to releasing my new album. These two are lyrically finished, but mixing the vocals on these, to get them just right, and in MY Defective Monk style.

So please enjoy, and any feedback is always appreciated!

Sincere Regards,
Defective Monk

Hello everyone...!
I hope ALL is well & you're keeping busy these days.
I wanted to let you know, I have uploaded a few more pictures, plus added a couple more new songs I am working on, and wanted everyone to get an "instrumental" taste, leaning on the SYNth side of my music style, just to keep y'all on your toes, so to speak.

One is called "Trenches of EViL" and the other one is called "Trick or Treat"

So enjoy some 4th of July "MusicWorks" b/c many places have no fireworks this year.

Enjoy!

Sincere Regards,
Defective Monk

Hello everyone....!

I have add two instrumental tracks to my page/playlist of Defective Monk music, for now.
The lyric versions are completed currently, but are still in the mix down process.
One is a newer version of "Junk Truck", and the other one is a song about my birthday, "Ruled By Six" - plus my birthday is coming up in 2 weeks, and my subscribers/fans deserve Defective Monk 'birthday' music! LOL.

Everyone enjoy and I have more done, plus more in the works!

Sincere Regards,
Defective Monk

Hello to ALL my current and new subscribers...!

I hope all of you are doing well during this time period of time, in our history - I appreciate ALL of you!

I am keeping busy with many things...! Jogging, working out, cycling (gotta keeps my 'girlish figure' everybody - LOL), working from home, and of course... working on a LOT of NEW music for you!
--- I have already put up my one new song, "Junk Truck", which is going on my 3rd release.
--- I have another 4 or 5 songs in the works as well...! :-)

I wanted to let you all know, I have put a new new music sampler on my page now. :-) I am calling this track the "Sin-A-Min Tasting Sampler" - a 2 or 3 song sampler track, depending on how you look at it? Since I tend to make a number of songs with two different version (One usually more Electronic/Synth based & another more Analog/Guitar based).

*** Track has 3 parts ***
--- Part 1 is "Turn Me On [Synth Version]"
--- Part 2 is "FU [Analog/Guitar Version - Instrumental]"
--- Part 3 is "Turn Me On [Analog/Guitar Version]

So, I hope all of you will enjoy this sampler/demo, since I know many of you a looking for more Defective Monk music.

Feel free to comment or even let me know what you think so far, of these track clips/snippets? Maybe let me know if you like the Synth version or Analog version of "Turn Me On" perhaps?

So everyone, stay safe, and I look forward to getting another sampler out there for you as well, in the near future.

Sincere Regards,
Defective Monk

Hello everyone...!!!

I hope ALL of my current and brand new subscribers are doing AWESOME, especially when starting this month of March off properly with music and fun!

I have for sure...! After seeing a Michael Jackson Tribute band called "Who's Bad" at the House of Blues, Chicago last week - you all HAVE to see them, excellent!

And then... to end last week, I checked out a GREAT Pantera Tribute band called "Sandblasted Skin", at the Sugar Skull, Franklin Park, IL (near O'hare Airport).

With that being said, I am currently working on 5 new songs aggressively - especially now that I got a brand new bass to add more depth to my style and sound.

So I have added my new Scratch Tracks/Demo to my music catalog for all of you to check out! Remember, its going to be a tad "choppy" here and there, and I got to smooth out/redo guitar tracks, but I wanted you all to hear the bass on it, because I am really enjoying it!

I have put this song on stream/download for a limited time, for all you!

Thanks you all for your ongoing support of my music!

Have an AWESOME MARCH 2020 everyone!

Sincere Regards,
Defective Monk

Thank you ALL for un-waivering support for my music everyone....! And I hope to have you all continue to do so, and spread the word of Defective Monk please.

With that being said, there's LOVE in the air this weekend! Valentine's Day is upon us tomorrow, and everyone needs to show how much they LOVE their significant other!

Which is why, I have uploaded one of two love songs ever written by yours truly...! This one I wrote to the most important woman in my life ever, and I gave this to her as a Valentine's Day gift...! It's got some heaviness to it, with solid bass groove and beat.

So please tell me what you all think of it, when you get a chance please? I will leave it up at least for the next 4 days, and below I am adding the lyrics so everyone can follow along if you choose to do so.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Sincere Regards,
Defective Monk

HUNNA BUNNA [12/29/2018]
By V. Aumann/Defective Monk

V#1
SHE'S THE ONE WHO LOOKS ALL POLISHED...
CUZ HER IMAGE ISN'T TARNISHED...
SHE CAN BREAK YOUR STRIDE IN MOTION...
CUZ SHE'S SWEETER THAN A POTION...

CHORUS
HUNNA BUNNA... SHE'S THE ONE FOR ME...
HUNNA BUNNA... TAKE A CHANCE ON ME...

SHE'S THE ONE THAT KEEPS ME FOCUSED...
AND SHE DOESN'T PLAY HOCUS POCUS...

CHORUS
HUNNA BUNNA... SHE'S THE ONE FOR ME...
HUNNA BUNNA... TAKE A CHANCE ON ME...
KNOCKIN' ON YOUR BACK DOOR!
SCREAMIN' AT THE FRONT DOOR!
WILL YOU TAKE A CHANCE ON ME, PLEASE!
BRIDGE
SHE'S THE ONE WHO'S THE MOSTEST-DOPEST...
SHE DOES IT WITH OSMOSIS...
AND THAT'S NOT HOCUS POCUS...

CHORUS
HUNNA BUNNA... SHE'S THE ONE FOR ME...
HUNNA BUNNA... TAKE A CHANCE ON ME...
KNOCKIN' ON YOUR BACK DOOR!
SCREAMIN' AT THE FRONT DOOR!
WILL YOU TAKE A CHANCE ON ME, PLEASE!
