Harmony Festival

The 29th Annual

HARMONY FESTIVAL

Northern California’s Premier Music, Camping
& Sustainable Lifestyle Festival

“Promoting Global Cooling”

If you have never journeyed up to Harmony Festival I can???t recommend it enough??? it’s a smaller and more user friendly “family” affair and it???s like the first Norcal festival of the season that kicks off the summer up there. You will find producers of Burning Man, Earthdance, High Sierra, Oregon Country Fair, Joshua Tree Music Fest, Anon Salon, Reggae on the River all there and lending our support (snafu with PreCompression having to move to same weekend but… maybe do both?)

From the southlands; the Mutaytor, Lucent Dossier, David Starfire and others have all performed in the past or are performing this year. Check the lineup below and read through the cracks (???people like New Orleans Social Club are members of The Meters and Neville Bros). The Sat night Techno Tribal party features STS9, Shpongle and Rabbit in the Moon performing among others and Anon Salon also hosts the ???Ambiotca??? party just across the way as well. On site camping is now available… Wow and Otter Oasis camps from BM have large presence there.

???Nuff said on the sales pitch??? just come up??? you WILL have a great time ???. and/or meet the love of your life… Harmony Festival is just that way. Hope to see ya,

Love and Stratocasters,

Mark Bava

The 8th Annual Harmony Festival Saturday Night…

TECHNO-TRIBAL COMMUNITY DANCE

SATURDAY – JUNE 9th 2007
Grace Pavilion – 8:00PM – 2:00AM – All Ages

Once a year there comes a sensorium extravaganza like no other… The fabulous Techno-Tribal Dance takes flight in a universe of 21st Century sound and light in the vast cathedral of Grace Pavilion. A sea of costumed, dancing people celebrate the moment to the music of top electronica artists, their eyes filled with jewels by a full spectrum laser array and vast airy beings that hang in space, painted with light and sailing in the sound field. Fire spinners dazzle the eye as daring aerialists soar through the dark reaches above the pulsing crowd, whose bones are vibrating with massive bass beats. Then fantasy forms and dream beings on stilts cut a path through the happy dancers, bringing with them an element of – what? Ritual? Magic? Birth of something so novel we cannot name it, but we know we want it and it’s here!

• RABBIT IN THE MOON – SHPONGLE (DJ SET)
• STANTON WARRIORS (FEAT: DOMINIC B.)
• GANGA GIRI – LUCENT DOSSIER VAUDEVILLE CIRQUE
• SHAMANIC CHEERLEADERS – SUB-4 BREAKDANCE CREW
• SISTERZ OF THE UNDERGROUND – FOU FOU HA – PYRO-A-GOGO
• MALARKEY – LUMANESQUE – MOJOW & THE VIBRATION ARMY
• VJ TEK – & MANY MORE!

Burning Man Regional Event: Dark Skies Singularity Arts Festival

The 2nd annual southwestern Burning Man regional event is underway as of today Thursday May 17. The arts and music festival runs through Sunday night May 20th.

At last year’s Dark Skies Singularity event, somewhere in the vicinity of 700 participants showed up for the four day festival. I was one of the producers, being at that time the L.A. Burning Man regional director. I had hooked up with Cameron Grant the Las Vegas BM regional director and his team, and the rest is, as they say, history.

Though I’ve retired my role as a BM regional head and am not involved with the production and organization of this event any longer, I can attest to the amazing hard work of all involved, in particular the Las Vegas crew. It’s their baby. Everyone really puts their asses on the line. It’s a labor of love, and it shows. It became a multi regional effort last year, as Cameron and I had been talking about “connecting the dots” in regards to pooling our resources as heads of the regions. Once our alliance was set, the Las Vegas crew picked up the ball and ran with it. That’s not to diminish the efforts of the L.A. contingent, without whose influence and committed efforts and immeasurable passion the event could not have become what it is!

Here are some shots from last year’s event: The Boogie Man doing what he does best! Just to entice you. I hope it helps!

Directions with photos on the DarkSkies Website.

This event is exceptional in its diversity. Come on out. It’s high time for a road trip! Last year we had participants from Salt Lake City, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, NYC, Vancouver… and probably a few others

It’s about a 3 hour drive to the Roach dry lake-bed from Los Angeles. With some friends and/or satellite radio to keep you company, that’ll fly by. You’ll be on the mini-Playa in no time!

There are hotel accommodations nearby if camping isn’t on your agenda this time around! Showers, rooms, casinos, restaurants… Brush up on your poker! Check the Primm Valley Resorts Website for accommodation information (though turn off your speakers to avoid the stupidly horrible music that begins playing immediately).
