Mieshiel was born in New York City. He attended Friends Seminary & received his BFA in 1986 from California Institute of the Arts. Upon graduations, Mieshiel moved into a 19th century Masonic Temple in Los Angeles where he co-founded Temple Art Performance, a hub for avante-garde performance art, music & visual art. He later moved to New Mexico & spent the next 24 years in near seclusion, living off the grid. In this high desert sanctuary timelessness & utter quiet allowed him to experience an endless barage of mystical experiences where his art connection with Pablo Amaringo was revealed. In 1982 Mieshiel won competition & created a street mural at Irving Place in NYC. His work has been exhibited nationally & is included in the permanent collections of the Harwood Museum of Art in Taos.

In 2003 she went to her first Psytrance party and got infected. She has been an electronic music aficionado ever since She started djaying in 2012 playing Progressive Psytrance and Downtempo. Her sound is funky deep bass lines, emotional melodies, healing sounds, and chakra aligning arrangements. Her latest projects include producing underground electronic music events in and around Denver: Psychedelic Szechuan, 7th Dimension and Liminal Vibe. She is part of Rising Phoenix Colorado, Defy Labels, Native Circuit and Rocky Mountain Resonance. https://soundcloud.com/mystickahttps://www.facebook.com/Rising-Phoenix-Colorado-1089772607726477/


SATTVA ANANDA (Santa Fe, NM)
Sattva Ananda got his first musical instrument at the age of thirteen (a drum kit). From there he learned to play percussion instruments of various types, including the didgeridoo, congas, djembe, nyabinghi drums etc. In the early 90,s he played in funk and groove oriented bands. In 1996 he started the venture towards loop based music, eventually leading to his owning a small studio and the self production abyss of electronic based music. Today he focuses on what is broadly known as bass music. Sattva has been producing bass music for many years, with numerous releases on Party Time Society and Desert Trax. He is best known for his Moombahton sets that always bring a smile to those on the dancefloor. We're honored to have him up to Taos for a guest appearance.

INFINITE SPLIT
From experamental whimsical dream worlds, to melodic sexy trap habbits. Infinite Split stays on the forefront of strange, bringing a unique blend of psychosis and philosophy in a form of sound. Science still has yet to classify this paradox as a dissociative, so is legal dew to massive black outs and common brain damage. Burrowed in the New Mexican landscape, Infinite Split remains, a wanderlust of soundscapes
