Hey there, Sorry for the long delay (again) in posting any
Meeble news. We've been focusing on creating hybrid visual art
using RGB lasers, video projection mapping, LED video walls and
more. We've also been busy creating interactive control software
using Max 6 by Cycling 74. You can see a simple sample of our work
in the video below. Much more elaborate work will be posted in the
coming months. Also, the next Meeble EP is still in the works -
expect some updates later in the year, ok? [...] READ MORE ««

Hello Meeble friends, I apologize for the lack of Mr. Meeble
updates as of late - I'm in the middle of a break from music - I've
been swallowed by my passionate pursuit to remove Sheriff Arpaio
from office on November 6th, 2012. In fact, I just finished
producing a TV commercial that blasts Arpaio for failing to
investigate 432 sex crime cases here in Arizona, where I live. I'm
not sure how many of you know who Joe Arpaio is, but I hope that
every single one of you support protecting children [...] READ MORE

Meeble friends, Some of you may be aware of my active fight
against Sheriff Joe Arpaio. You can read more about that HERE and
HERE. But being against something isn't as powerful as being FOR
something. And it has become more than apparent that the only
candidate capable of defeating Arpaio in the November 6th election
is Paul Penzone. Watch this video: WHAT'S NEXT? Calling all social
media warriors: if you have what it takes, and are willing to
contribute your energy to the [...] READ MORE ««

In fall of 2011, Mr. Meeble played several shows in Europe
with Silent Strike (aka Ioan Titu) who is an amazingly talented
composer and producer. I would call his style moody melodic
orchestral electronic, with a pinch of glitch hop flavor to keep it
edgy. Take a listen, I'm sure many Meeble fans will immediately
resonate with it. For more info:

This stellar review of Nostalgic for Now was just published
in the June edition of Java Magazine: Sounds Around Town by
Mitchell Hillman. MR. MEEBLE NOSTALGIC FOR NOW I have been talking
to Devin Fleenor about the new Mr. Meeble EP for very nearly a year
-- since before the band left for a European tour late last summer.
So it is with much excitement and anticipation that Nostalgic for
Now finally sees release this month. Clearly at a crossroads where
Nine Inch Nails meets Pink Floyd, [...] READ MORE ««

We have JUST released our new EP, Nostalgic For Now, along
with the Star Power video. Here's a snippet of the official press
release sent to the global media: "The EP 'sounds like
remembering', according to Fleenor, who describes it as a more
optimistic work than their 2008 full-length debut, Never Trust the
Chinese. 'Our first album is the dark aftermath of a real life
catastrophe. NFN comes from a happier place - but don't expect
upbeat. My life is a complicated, intense and beautiful [...] READ

hi meeble friends, deeeep breath... It's been a long, rough 6
weeks - My video comrade David and I have been working non-stop
shooting, producing, rendering, editing, tweaking and perfecting
the new Mr. Meeble video for "Star Power". In fact, I spent 2 days
editing the video in a hospital bed with pneumonia last week . Both
the video and Nostalgic for Now EP will be released globally this
week, and we could really use your help. Do you have a blog and
would be willing to write a review [...] READ MORE ««

This is not Mr. Meeble related - but I needed a break and
went to Coachella with Karina this past weekend. We hung out with
our friends Colin and James (who flew in from London for the
festival) and loved every minute of it. BTW, I have nothing
interesting to say about the Tupac hologram. Here's my top 5 shows
for Coachella 2012: 1. Godspeed You Black Emperor 2. Modeselektor
w/ Thom Yorke 3. M83 4. Radiohead 5. Justice Honorable mention:
Amon Tobin for his mind blowing architectural [...] READ MORE ««

Mr. Meeble has come to an untimely end. Can you believe it?
Of course this could also be attributed to April Fool’s day.

Hello friends, The United States congress is attempting to
pass atrocious legislation named the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA)
and the PROTECT IP Act (PIPA). If you are unaware of these bills
and their consequences, please watch this video: This new
legislation would institute a China-like censorship regime in the
United States, whereby the Department of Justice could force search
engines, browsers, and service providers to block users' access to
websites, and scrub the American Internet [...] READ MORE ««

Hi friends – it is time to begin sorting out the merchandise
that needs to be sent out to those who donated to the tour but
never came to one of our shows to collect. The EP will be sent out
as soon as it is finished (the next few weeks). For those of you
who are owed a t-shirt, I need to know what size and style you
want. So, please leave a comment below, or contact us.

Hi friends, For the past couple weeks, I've been recuperating
from being sick, let lag, and mental fatigue from an amazing,
gargantuan, and arduous European tour. I plan on sharing with you
more about my experiences and lessons learned soon - once I get a
bit more grounded and manage some real life situations. Until then,
you can read a little about the tour here in this New Times

Hi friends, I wanted to apologize for the lack of tour
updates - things have been crazy busy, with a lot of good and a lot
of bad along the way. As soon as I get some extra time, I
will try to post some of the bizarre and amusing events that have
transpired. The good news: Our show in Cluj-Napoca, Romania
was amazing! Full venue - positive energy - people singing our song
lyrics aloud - all around the best show we've played... The bad
news: Touring Europe is MUCH harder than we ever [...] READ
