DESIRE w: Mothermary // Johnny Jewel
The producer whose fingerprints are on most of the last fifteen years of cinematic synth music rarely appears on a bill under his own name, which is what makes this particular lineup worth the drive. Everything he touches sounds submerged — drum machines, French vocals, melodies that suggest a film that was never made. Adding a sibling duo whose work sits in the same humid territory turns it into a showcase for one specific aesthetic rather than a single set. The high desert at the end of October, cold outside, a wooden room with a patio, is an almost absurdly good setting for music this atmospheric. Music at 9:30 PM in Pioneertown, the night before Halloween. The synth and goth crowd treats this weekend out here as an annual pilgrimage, and the parking lot looks like it.

You found your people.
They didn't know each other before Falkor either.
