Rendal's Picks

On Sunday January 30, 2010 DWA in Second Life closed. I wanted to do something for Vex Varmint and Joey Williamson in thanks for the fun I had there, and decided to dedicate this podcast's music to them and the wonderful memories of DWA I will keep with me. So this is from DWA's Dancing Angel Rendal Lamington and Woodstock. Thanks to the DJ's for making the last night memorable: Kaitlee Dollinger, Melody Parks, Vex Varmint & Joey Williamson. American Head Charge-Just So You Know Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip-Thou shalt Always Kill (Video Version) Flogging Molly-Devil's Dance Floor Bon Jovi-Raise Your Hands (For Joey's Sister Kim) Gorillaz-Feel Good Inc.

I've been going through a lot here lately so I'm playing three clips I've had running almost constantly to keep me calmed down. Calvin Rocca-The Jungle, from Vivid entertainments movie of the same name. I wish I could find he soundtrack to it. 3 Leg Torso-Elliot's Dream, from the & teller videos. Part 1 & Part 2. Zynga-Fishville, from the Facebook game, I'm here if anyone wants a neighbor :). Also special thanks to Yahtzee and his review of Torchlight for making me honestly laugh.

All music, save for the bumper, was used in the show Farndale's A Christmas Carol. the Trans-Siberian Orchestra song was used as pre show music. Bumper:3 Leg Torso-Elliot's Dream (From the & Teller movies) Trans-Siberian Orchestra-A Mad Russian's Christmas (Instrumental) Frank sinatra-Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas (Album Link) Frank Sinatra-Come Fy With Me Absolutely Irish-The House In The Glen/The Bohola Jig/Josie McDermott'S/Free And Easy [Jigs/Reel] Ray Conniff and The Singers-Up Up and Away Bing Crosby-White Christmas (Album Link) The Hit Crew-Let it Snow

Clips from the top 100 of the decade as listed on rolling Stone, for the most part this is me playing what I have on the list. I did look a few up that I marked with an *.

A Glorious Dawn-Carl Sagen & Stephen Hawking We Are All Connected-Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, Neil deGrasse Tyson & Bill Nye Our Place In The Universe-Carl Sagan, Richard Dawkins, Michio Kaku & Robert Jastrow

OK today I'm playing some songs from Repo! The genetic Opera. I would play the whole thing but this is what I could find on you tube. I will if I get the CD sometime. All songs written by Darren Smith & Terrance Zdunich. Genetic Repo Man 21st Century Cure Legal Assassin Zydrate Anatomy At The Opera Tonight

I wanted to play a new find thanks to you Tube: Peter, Paul & Mary's "Don't Go Down To The Quarry", but didn't want to play it alone so I threw a couple more on for good measure. Peter, Paul & Mary-Don't Go Down To The Quarry (LP Version) Gordon Lightfoot-Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald Jimmy Dean-Big Bad John Kylie Minogue & Nick Cave-Where the wild Roses Grow (Video)

These are MP3 files from the Blizzard game World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. I hope to have to soundtrack someday but until now enjoy some good game music :) I redid the intro which is why it starts funny. Matt Uelmen-Shattrath Walking 1 Matt Uelmen-Zangarmarsh Walking 2 Matt Uelmen (incorporating Nocturne by F. Chopin)-Outlands Alliance Base 2 Derek Duke-AV_DraeneiWalkUni01 Russel Brower-ES_SilvermoonIntroUni01 Russel Brower-ES_SunstriderWalkNight01 Russel Brower & Derek Duke-Lament of the Highborne

This is a late tribute to Mary Travers of the folk group Peter, Paul & Mary. All songs performed by the group. I Dig Rock And Roll Music If I Had My Way If I Had A Hammer One Tin Soldier Blowin' In The Wind Where Have All The Flowers Gone I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing Leaving On A Jet Plane 500 Miles Day Is Done Puff The Magic Dragon

OK this is originally sung in German though I'm playing an English version as well. I found out about this by browsing a Anti-Bush site some years ago, Eric Blumrich used it in the background of a flash video about Bush's treatment of Veterans. Its a very haunting song I think and I hop you enjoy it. Verflucht bis ihr verhungert-German Version Crucified Division [desert Mixx]

Ever wonder when people say they bring up the original Bejeweled for the music what exactly they meant? Well this would be it. When you start a game up this is what loops in the background. The song is called 1984-Network and can be downloaded as an MP3 by Clicking Here

A bit of a odd one I know but I wanted to do these and while it might be better to do it in two parts as they are so short, at only about 15 minutes total, I just threw them in together. All links are to videos. First set is the three songs Jerry Reed wrote for Smokey and the Bandit. The Legend The Bandit East Bound and Down Second are the only two Evangeline songs I can find on the internet. Bayou Boy-from the album Evangeline Let's Go Spend Your Money Honey-from the album French Quarter Moon

This set came about after hearing the Sheryl Crow songs on the TV one night. after getting them the idea for a show popped up. Sheryl Crow-All I Wanna Do Natalie Merchant-Carnival k.d. lang-If I Were You Joan Osbourne-What If God Was One Of Us Crash Test Dummies-Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm Bobby McFerrin-Don't Worry, Be Happy Sheryl Crow-Every Day Is A Winding Road Pic from Excessively Dangerous Thing Archive

Today's show is centered around a video game, an old one. I've had Monopoly 1995 for many years and always loved the music in it, So I found a MIDI to MP3 program and converted them all. The downside, there are no titles I can find so no track list unfortunately. Game made by Westwood. 17 Tracks, Playtime about 55 minutes

Thanks to the bumper I discovered the Ambient artist Mooma. What I'm playing today is Herd Forming, the album that Entropy is on, that's the name of the background in Urgelt's video. It runs a little over an hour so its a long one but worth it I think. All tracks obviously credited to Mooma. Bumper:Urgelt-A Grain of Sand They've Killed Our Cubs Phenotype Don't Bring Light Into This Place Presence Entropy Shelter Hello Dawn Horizon The Herd Forming Song

this was an OH Shit moment where I realized I hadn't come up with any ideas yet (I have one for next week though, fair warning its going over an hour :P). I tossed in a couple of web series themes as well for fun. Yvette Blais/Jeff Michael/Erika Lane-Fat Albert Theme Neil Sutherland-Mythbuster's Theme Ian "Podnuk"Dorsch-Zero Punctuation Theme Stewart Copland-The Equalizer Theme Mark Snow-Millenium Theme Christopher Gunning-Poirot Theme Patrick Gowers-221B Baker Street (Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes) Whorecraft Theme (composer sadly unknown :/) Bill Haley-Rock Around The Clock (Happy Days Theme) Stars on 45-TV Themes Medley Colon Towns-Brother Cadfael Chant & End

OK this one came about when I got a couple of songs in my head and thought it would be fun to to build a play list around them. Like the title says this is most likely not safe to play at work because of the language and themes in the songs. Songs Played Bumper:Velvet Acid Christ-Phucking Phreak Lordi:SCG3 Special Report Kelly Williams-Ghetto Boy Phunk Junkies-Devil Woman Whale-Hobo Humping Slobo Babe Tom Lehrer-Masochism Tango Monty Python-Medical Love Song Lords of Acid-The ABC's of Sex Insane Clown Posse-The Amazing Maze

I've been feeling really lost since I stepped down from a volunteer job in SL I had for two and a half years as a group coordinator and have had trouble getting motivated to do much of anything since. I wanted to do a show today and it took me a while to find a song but this one fits my situation well I think. Lyrics if i could only be the queen of popularity things would just come to me so easily what i would do what I would do if i could always be miss congeniality no one could stand to be away from me what i would do what i could do i could do anything if i were you i would have everything if i were you what i would do ... what i could do ... i could do anything if i were you i would have everything if i were you

Today I'm playing I guess the evolution of a song, Aerosmith's Walk This Way. First up we have the original, then followed by a collaboration with RUN-DMC, a 1998 remix of the collaboration and finally one labeled Girls Aloud vs Sugarbabes. Enjoy.

OK due to life and laziness I'm playing the songs I play as background music, enjoy :) Universal Pictures-Previews Theme Marc Wilkinson-Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu Opening Credits Pugs-Pop Corn Trevor Jones-The Pod Dance WCW-Raven WWE-Boogyman WWF-Gangrel/The Brood WWF-Jake The Snake Roberts "Trust Me" Yasushi Ishii-I.B.C.J. houiami

No name for this one. this came from a thought hearing Urgelt recite A grain of sand. I had the song he used for it and remembered I had another song like that too. So here are the two songs and the two backgrounds along with some bagpipes, just because I said so :P Bagpiper Don-Mt Air Set Dem Mooma-Entropy Urgelt-A Grain of Sand Radio Sub Rosa-Vampyre Bomb The Bass Featuring Benjamin Zephaniah & Sinead O'Connor-Empire

Silly time :D Everyone needs some of that. Pugs-Pop Corn Katastrophe KC and Choad of the Sexy Mixture-Grapez Eric Idle-FCC Song Avenue Q-The Internet is for Porn Sir Mix A Lot-Square Dance Rap Digital Underground-Humpty Dance Lemon Demon-The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny The Laziest Men On Mars-All Your Base Are Belong To Us Benny Benassi Vs 20 Fingers-Short Dick Satisfaction Fat Boys-My Nuts! The Avalanches-Frontier Psychiatrist Tiny Tim-Living In The Sunlight, Loving In The Moonlight Stephen Lynch-Beelz Jonathan Coulton-Re:Your Brains Image found at Breathtaking Balloons

This came from me wanting to play something people could tap their toes to. Varying styles so hopefully I'll have something for everyone. This was broadcast in the Lost Angels sim of Second Life due to radio stream being down. Scatman John-Everybody Jam Gorillaz vs No Doubt vs Deep Purple-Hella Dare You To Smoke Dead or Alive-You Spin Me Ropund (Like A Record 2003) Type O Negative-My Girlfriend's Girlfriend Madonna-Vogue Nick Cave-Red Right Hand Shaggy & Maxi Priest-That Girl Lady Soverign-Random Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip-Beat My Heart Skipped (video) Godsmack-Voodoo & Voodoo too George Michael-Too Funky (Video Version)

Thanks to Second Life DJane Nova Sakigake for this show. I had requested her to play Enter Sandman, and she did though not a version I knew of. So I went on Playlist and found a lot more versions. The Pat Boone one is the one she played for me, Iron Horse I'll play tomorrow for her ;)Most of these can be found on Playlist just doing a search on Enter Sandman. Artists (in order played) Rockabye Baby Pat Boone Iron Horse Tornazol (bad quality but put it on anyway :P) Ween Dictionaraoke Apocolyptica Motörhead Metalica Played for fun Tahiti-Mr. Sandman Also preview a special show based on You Tube user Urgelt's reading of things with Robert W Service's A Grain of Sand. This will only be on Podomatic due to time length.

OK very out of season I know but I found this CD:Halloween featuring the music of John Carpenter (Composer) with Scarey Sound FX as an MP3 download and figured it would be cool to own. Track Listing (in order played) Halloween Theme John Carpenter Composer Lauries Theme Halloween John Carpenter Composer Michael Myers Theme Halloween John Carpenter Composer Halloween Music Themes from Movie with Scarey Sound FX John Carpenter Composer Now here's the funny part. I ended up finding that because I put in John Carpenter while thinking of John Williams. The following song is the one I was looking for and its on the albums Indana Jones and the Last Crusade and Indiana Jones:The Soundtracks Collection. Finale & End Credits
