It is too hot to think in August in Wonder Valley. After a day hunkering by the swamp cooler, it is time to go to thePalms Restaurantand Dance! Disco Noise will bring the best of the desert noise artists to the stage at The Palms. The Alien Agenda is sweeping in from Yucca Valley. Hernia from Landers, last seen at the Bedlam art show at Radio Free Joshua Tree will take it to the stage at Disco Noise. Phog masheeen is premering a new set of bone crushing and ear searing audio. It is hard to enjoy the days of August in the desert, the nights however.... are sublime. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbGuLHJgp_o

The glorious documentation of the phog masheeen performance at the Jawbone Canyon Dung Mummy is now available for your amusement and perusal.
The details of this set include torrential rain, saturation of electronic gear with the gear failure that comes with it. It was a longer than normal set due to the cancellations of other acts on the bill.
Enjoy this man against nature moment. It was a memorable gig.
Phog masheeen is a sound art/video collective from Costa Mesa, California that focuses on using aerophones, idiophones and electronics for performance and sound design. Audio portions are accompanied by live mixed video.
