Melody and Harmony. The last of the mega cities, where music
flourishes as religion, dance clubs are churches. The mainstream genres rule
the inner city where the wealthy and powerful are covered by an environmental
shield. Beyond the shield the fringes of the city are the territory of the
subgenres and their fiercely loyal street congregations. Beyond the outer walls
of the city, nomads roam the desert riding on ancient junked busses and
piecemeal motorbikes bringing primal drumming to the wasteland shanty towns to
sing the faith of the old gods to the forgotten and the waste landers worship
them for it.
When several DJ’s from the most popular sub genres declare a
temporary peace in the city of Melody the news of a unified concert to be held
in the desert spreads quickly. All of the genre faithful left the safety of
their territories in the heart of summer to venture out past the relative
safety of the outer city walls and made their way to the festival grounds.
For Daniel and the rest of a rag tag band of unassociated believers
the journey to the festival would not only be the highlight of their summer, it
would change their lives and the twin cities, forever.
Beginning September 7th experience a dystopian
coming of age narrative unlike any other.
Melody and Harmony.
