ABOUT

This is Rango Aloof.
When I think of this idea, I do not think of the musical influences and go to that.

I think of the personalities I see in history. In the time I made the 5 track demo”Sound Bites for a Bitter Armageddon” I had the influence of Orson Welles, Charlie Chaplin, Blackadder and Ultimately... Lucifer.

The music just pours out of you when you make a response to those individuals that helped shape your mind.

What came out was in low C tuned, heavy guitars and bass with thumping, rhythmic drums and the sonorous effect of keyboard, piano.

I would like to find like minded individuals who sees this as an opportunity to create a unique sounding style with a flair of the theatrics. A basis that would say it is ok to poke the demon every once in a while.
