Etherati Track #5: Circles. A neoclassical round for two guitars, the closing track from Etherati, my 2011 debut EP. Get it? It's a round. Circles \m/. Dedicated to the memory of my friend Jennifer Brooks Johnstone ♥. This was the last song I gave her, the last time I saw her, so this is where the album ends. It's enough to know she changed my life, and she is always with me.

Etherati Track #1: The Mistress<br/> =========================<br/> It's time to see the mistreess Get down on your knees You don't want to miss this Can't do what you please When you see the mistress Tell her what you need She won't be the witness She might let you bleed The mistress is calling I can't resist It's time to please mistress She will only tease Nevermind your business Bind you up and leave Pray before the mistress Pray for what you need Don't expect forgiveness For all your wicked deeds The mistress is calling I can't resist Never fear the mistress Leave behind your sleaze She won't mind your distress She'll put you at ease When you leave the mistress When you feel appeased You may have an interest In mistress as you please The mistress is calling I can't resist

Season III Episode 2: It's a non-stop descent into extremely danceable madness as Rango resolves last week's cliffhanger and Plagus continues to wrestle for control of the show. Featuring the irresistable electronic grooves of Jenni French and MikeWhitePresents and the sticky hooks of Carlos Wilde offset by the gritty guts & glory of guitar man Rick Frost and a repeat double play from Dai Sharkey. From out of the fog the spotlight shines on Steve Gardner and his project The Condition, and along the way to this face-melting rock triple we get some relief from around the world including Anchorage, Alaska, incoming fireball Civilized Tears, the sublime Six String Woody, the lovely Hetty Lane and resident aussie genius Mark Robinson. And it wouldn't be a show without Simon James White, Patrick Kindy, Tim Hearn and two from Savage Henry, so rack'em and stack'em, baby \m/

here's the poddie for those who missed the AudioBurger.com rollout last week. yes, it was a bit of a pile-on, and unfortunately i had to leave abruptly during the show to tend my home situation.but make no mistake, 2013 is the Year of the Dogg. with performances from Simon James White and his crew SjW, TRAFFiC EXPERiMENT, Jed McConkey and MikeWhite Presents, as well as Jackson's Warehouse and the Shanklin Freakshow. see what Johnny Burger, Jack Chandler, Sascha Cooper and Darren Baz Badrock were going on about in this 90 minute premiere that skewers both Google AdSense and the ultimate symbol of consumer disregard, the steamer from the little napolean that you're reading now: Facebook.it ain't perfect, it's very raw and indie and there's a 15 second drop-out in the middle that will leave you scratching your head. actually the whole thing will leave you scratching your head, which is why you should totally listen. consider: fleas (dog humor), pause & resume, or download & burn for your car! it's for you guys! i want to entertain you, it's very simple!!!\m/~(-.-)~\m/ - moo. moooooo! mooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!

33 minutes of mountain in a bottle. more landscape than song, because mountains are huge, right? one continuous riff that rolls endlessly to the next as mountain ranges tend to do. i captured the essence of my synesthetic impressions from an oregon mountaintop in my dobro the other day. yesterday my son encouraged me to record it, and he was right, it was fun. there are rivers and streams, meadows and ravines painted in green and grey, as well as a bluebird, a touch of pink lemonade and the mountain man himself. just passing the time...

Dobro Love: before there was dobro love (live), the song i took with me to the NBC cattle call for And the Winner Is, there was dobro love (the rehearsal, first time playing off the piano, oddly enough). interrupted continuously by the background sound of my Facebook, Skype and Twitter feeds (yup, it's that annoying, 24/7). at one point i lose it and drop an f-bomb (sorry, i am rango :-/, it was very annoying and frustrating, you must agree) (mona: or what?)(plagus: hush woman). also: smokehouse variations. ♥ ♥ ♥ A single condenser microphone captured this rehearsal of Enamel Eyes with a segue into some Smokehouse Variations, decidedly upbeat. This is much better audio than the camcorder audio on the video of the same name, and at some point I'll replace the audio on that video with this one. This only the main musical selection, none of the noodling and twittering and Skyping and cussing from the video. Lyrics: when i leave you in September i’ll ask you to remember the time we shared we thought would never come i told you in a letter you asked me to forget her showed me how you love that’s how it’s done when i close my eyes i can see your smile again like yesterday i still remember when you danced beside the window sill that day enamel eyes have never looked that way if you take my hand by the silver moon i’ll tell you when, i promise soon we’ll walk until the afternoon we’ll find a way and make some room you’re going to need some space you see to fly away with me

Seattle programmer, metal guitarist, and retired ballet dancer Matthew Meadows is Rango the Dog, a bipolar polymath hell-bent on taking over YouTube. He's got an evil computer and a bad attitude and even a furry little friend for comedy relief.

remembering our soldiers today \m/ this was a live take in 2001 with Brett Hopkins on drums and Daniel Easton on bass. the song came in an inspired flash as i tried to imagine what i would tell my parents if i was a young man going off to fight: I'm going to Afghanistan It's there I'll make my final stand Like Johnny Spann and everyone Who loved him I know you may not understand I find myself the kind of man To cross the line in the sand For something This is war, American style Nightmares come of age Deliver me from rage This is war The target looks like every man I see him in the market stand I could take him now If I'm not wrong Before he gets to Pakistan I'll track him through the mountains and He'll give me one reason To be strong This is war, American style Nightmares come of age Deliver me from rage This is war Winter's come, it bites my hands Like every day I've walked these lands I've found another reason For a man's revenge With every shot I've made my stand So many men so much demand I'll never leave, I've joined the band Until the very end This is war, American style Nightmares come of age Deliver me from rage This is war Face to face, hand to hand Fighting for the promised land Every target, every man Squeeze and go I look at him and his demands I know he'll never understand I've always had the upper hand He will not know This is war, American style Nightmares come of age Deliver me from rage This is war

Tequila Haze - Don Quixote with a Cordoba and a bottle of blue agave? Oh, tequila haze And rainy days What did I do? All the plans we made I'm still amazed I never followed through Let me tell you about the state I'm in I wanna give it up I just can't begin A one last time to reminisce Give me just a one last kiss Clouds and sunny days Never showed the way What should I do? Time it's here to stay So many ways I'm still wanting you Let me tell you about the state I'm in I wanna give it up I just can't begin A one last time to reminisce Give me just a one last kiss While the games we play Just drain away A bottle or two Life it takes away The day by day Until you're due Let me tell you about the state I'm in I wanna give it up I just can't begin A one last time to reminisce Give me just a one last kiss

This is the Purple take of The Pope, one of the mixes Whiskey Tex heard before the song was officially canonized in Texas Dub / The Pope (uncut). It's too fast, somewhat hyper, and distinctly purple.

Soundtrack from the video Operation Rango: Texas Dub / The Pope (uncut) Rango the Dog and Whiskey Tex take on the Vatican. As you might expect, things get somewhat shreddy and kind of pope-ish. 6 minutes and change of sticky & sweet, southern style improvisation before the man with the procession starts on the chimes and the neoclassical shredding begins for another 6 minutes as his paladins storm the gate. Captured live down at the Smokehouse, with no rehearsal and no accounting for taste. Two dudes and their guitars on a wild romp through a sonic landscape packed full of dirty pentatonic goodness and gratuitous wide-interval finger tapping.

The Pope - Hat Dance (guitar solo). There are popes and there are popes. There are the kind that lead with chimes and the kind that lead with a legion of bloody paladins. This was a version of the solo before the song was codified with Whiskey Tex in the Texas Dub / The Pope (uncut) video. There is video but Rango's too busy to produce it at the moment, as well as a take I like to call "Detroit". l8r \m/.

Liberteria - Metal Ink (First Cut) From composer Sabrina Pena Young, my take on Simeon, performing the solo Metal Ink from Libertaria: The Virtual Opera. This is my personal mix, raw and full of improvisation. Expect the final mix to be subject to change. Not by chance, I caught the entire escapade on video and snapped a few hundred images, because it was yet another surreal moment in My Life As a Musical.

Operation Rango: Risk (Live Guitar Solo): This is a live capture of a reference take of Risk. It's 100% solo guitar, originally rejected because it was inadvertently recorded on a randomly hanging microphone instead of direct from the amp. I ultimately changed my mind because the ambient sounds of my feet tapping and shuffling on the floor add to the live feeling of it. Produced for Into the Snow III, where rango loses a headcutting duel to the shredder from LA (the first take). little dancing, some psychedelia, and the second take is after the credits so make this face :-D and this one \m/ and this one :-o and then this one again :-D.

The soundtrack for Check 1,2 and Into the Snow comes from a demo of my song The Ringmaster. The Ringmaster was originally conceived as the opening from a concept album and stage show, but plans have changed and now it's the finale on my forthcoming 2012 album Temple of Zither. It features a cast of characters that includes the Ringmaster, Daddy, an acrobat who takes a fatal fall, and his Little Boy. Angel is on the lighting tree, not to be trusted. The clowns Dimitri and Alexander are fighting for the spotlight bumbling around with their kazoos while little Nicolai, a violin virtuoso, times his scales to the arcs of the acrobats overhead and the sway of the purple elephant's trunks while circling them on his unicycle. This is currently a demo, and producer Stuart Epps (Led Zeppelin / Elton John / Matthew Meadows) is taking over from here. This song is inspired by a real event I witnessed at a circus 25 years ago. Cue the lights, bring up the scrim, and spotlight stage right on the man in the hat.

Operation Rango: Into the Snow It's been months since Seattle's tragic Snowpocalypse and now the truth's come out: it was nothing but a media fraud. Or was it? No matter, Rango's got more important things to tend to: his buddy Tim Hearn. It's a widely known fact that I'm bipolar and of course art imitates life so my alter-ego Rango is, too. Whereas I'm gently touched and slightly medicated he is completely unbridled and hellbent on getting his 15 minutes. This week I released my first short film starring Rango, a programmer/metal guitarist/ballet dancer with an evil robot and an empathetic rabbit. Operation Rango: Into the Snow is based on real footage captured during Seattle's tragic Snowpocalypse back in January at the cusp of a manic episode that I'm still shaking off. It's 8 minutes long, a dark comedy that blends the lines of my life with those in the narrative and some of the real musicians I've become friends with on Facebook (ed: as opposed to the imaginary ones ??). I wrote and performed all of the music minus a few barres in the final credits, and I came up with the narrative on the fly. It took me 45 minutes in the snow and 24 hours continuous editing to create the original cut, and 4 months to frost the cake. Check it out if you can, I put a lot into it and I don't get any compensation from Youtube (banned for life by Google AdWords), it's truly out there just for you to enjoy. -rango

Sultry LA pop artist Jenni French wrote this sexy little song and I dirtied it up with my Les Paul. This was the first and only take, one continuous shot as I improvise under hideous lighting obviously badly in need of a shower. Behind me - coffee refuse, my bass, and the corner where Rango runs the command console. \m/
