Blind Update
August 3rd, 2008 |

A while back I began to notice that the flash audio player I was using on this site would sometimes get caught in a buffering loop and not play the audio. This only seemed to happen in Firefox and not in Explorer, which is unfortunate since I use Firefox, and incorporate firefox features in my sites that don’t work in Explorer.

So earlier this month Adobe released the Flash 10 Beta which corrects the buffering issue in Firefox. If you don’t know which version of Flash you have, you can find out here. If you don’t have version 10, I suggest downloading it here. ( hermo, I think that will stop your tabs from crashing as well…)

I’ve also updated the audio player, it includes a volume control and new color scheme.

taadaa! I’m magoickaal.– Ptone.

 Beautiful sounds from unexpected places:I spend a good chunk of my time sitting on porches.

My back porch, my front porch, your porch, even your sister’s porch (sorry about that but we all know about her). They seem to be a good buffer from indoors to outdoors. A place made for relaxing, good times with old friends, and from time to time – silence. Only one thing, last night there wasn’t silence. I was out behind the house and there were only 3 sounds. Rumble from an airplane, rain, and wind-chimes. Nothing could have sounded better at that moment. The perfect end to a great weekend. I generally hear everything at once so combining that with ideas and memories makes for a mushy brain, but not last night. The wind-chimes and rain made for 2 beautiful noises. I’d imagine chimes the house would be some of the most annoying shit in the world. An alarm clock made of wind-chimes would soon meet a violent end at the hands of a Meatbag. I’m not even sure if we have chimes or if they belong to the neighbors. We have a mountain of things at Castle Sandwich.

Wrap it up you wordy fucker:

The combination of weather and pipes on strings doesn’t seem like a good combination for sweet sounds.

This first example is from a man who calls himself – Self. He took things that separately are relatively annoying and made something beautiful. He made an entire album only using toys and toy instruments. If this song were gravy I’d put it all over your feet and take 2 days off of work. If it were bacon it would have come from a golden pig.  Wash your feet and enjoy:

Self – 5 Alive

Another example: Some close friends of the Meatbag called Lyle’s Porn Shop took 4 of the most annoying devices known to man and backed an old fashioned story of alien abduction. The devices in question were a kiddie drumset, a cowbell, a rainstick, and one of the worst inventions in the music world the Johnny Rabb rhythm saw. The rhythm saw was a pair of ridged drum sticks that would get any drummer kicked out of a band. Also, I know SNL made the cowbell a popular joke but time spent with a cowbell will drive you mad, unless you’re a cow – fatty. Sit back, listen, and beware the lights in the sky.

I’d never do you wrong baby, Admiral Meatbag.

OMFG. A fucking Tuesday post. Must be the devil’s doing.Today the devil goes by the name of Bruce Springsteen with Cousin Cole . I came across this song through this Resident Advisor Mix by Todd Terje, a fine laidback discoy-new wavey-housey experience. Do check it out. Anyhow, so when I saw this song posted up, I knew I had to share this sparse version of a dark song. Normally this is something I would save for Fingerbanger fodder, but I might be food for worms by then. Put it off your forehead, now fire, a slow burn we walk.

Bruce Springsteen – I’m On Fire (Cousin Cole’s Bad Desire Mix)

Second in this fire walk with me is…

and so forth and so on
April 16th, 2008 |

 
I came across a sky that reminded me of you, selfish and self aware but beautiful. We all deserves to be free. Without conflict, judgments or fear. Gratitude is essential in my world. Yeah, if thats not cool, but I don’t care. I think the only intelligence in the universe is the imagination. everything starts as an idea from nowhere and ends up as a force, growth, and a reality. We all imagine. Either good or bad. I respect our freedom to be as we choose. And so forth and so on.

A couple mid week detours for the cold kill kill crew, becasue if you are no good at walking, you can at least run.

This is Part 1 in the Guest Poster Series: Admiral Meatbag of Team Sandwich.
Every day that I’m home I know when my neighbor is outside because I can hear him yelling at his dog. Her name is Ally. I know this because I hear her name almost every day. She craps in my yard and barks at me she runs up to me and lets me pet her. Just like so many people the dog has issues. So is barking, petting, and crapping insane? Hell no, its instinct. If humping a leg is insane then I’m Jeffrey Dahmer on a unicycle, I’m John Wayne Gacy riding a moped backwards through a McDonald’s drive through, I’m Ted Bundy in a dress riding on the back of a convertible with a sparkler in one hand and throwing candy to kids with the other during the 4th of July parade.Maybe I’m just a horny leg man.

The Son of Sam said the neighbor’s dog talked to him. I don’t think Ally is saying a thing except “woof”. Who’s crazy?? The dog? Or the owner who doesn’t think she’s going to run in my yard? My yard is kick ass and if I were a dog I’d run in it too. The neighbor’s yard is a snowy shitfarm.

Get to the point Meatbag: Is art insanity?

We all know a socially inept artist/musician. Does the art make them crazy or does it keep them from being crazier? Here is an old friend who goes by the name of Mr. Charlie Manson performing a song for you:

Charles Manson – Sick City

Perhaps if Charlie “made it” as a musician there would have been fewer dead Californians. Maybe if Sharon Tate had a chance to sit down and appreciate Charlie’s music he wouldn’t have deemed her a pig and she could be a withered starlet doing infomercials today. It worked for Brian Wilson. He hung out with Charlie. Minus a few dead brain cells he’s still kicking. He did the brain cell thing to himself, don’t blame Charlie.

Charlie said, “My relationship to music is completely subliminal, it just flows through me.”

Einstein said, ” I see my life in terms of music.”

One is called crazy and the other is called genius. They don’t sound so different. The fact is they aren’t. Maybe we all are one? Here are 4 quotes from both Chuck and Al. I won’t tell you who’s who and what does it matter anyway?

“Everything should be as simple as it is, but not simpler.”
“I am a deeply religious nonbeliever – This is a somewhat new kind of religion”
“Everything is beautiful if you want to experience it totally.”
“Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds.”

These 2 don’t sound too bad right now. However, one killed a bunch of people and the other married his cousin. Crazy fuckers

Ok, so, everyone pay attention to this guy. He calls himself “That One Guy” and plays an instrument called the magic pipe. If our art keeps us sane then we need to start listening to this guy because it sounds like he could snap any day. Keep in mind this is one man, his magic pipe, and a couple of loops he spits out on the fly. Recognize and save yourself. www.that1guy.com
