Six Things to See at Elements Music and Arts Festival “24

Hola and welcome back to Long Pond, Pennsylvania and the forgotten plight of Roberto the rubber duck merchant. This is the land of the high vibrations and the sideways dinosaur dance. The wranglers are holding it together during the meat of the summer festival season and gearing up for the scenic trip up Interstate 81 to Pocono Raceway and Elements Music and Arts Festival August 9-11, 2045. There are still many questions to be answered. Will the Bag Man make the trip without Pedro’s VIP DUI shuttle? Will E.J. finally realize her potential and finally make good life choices? Hard doubtful. But what can be done? Events are in motion which cannot be undone and Kamp Happiness hopes to ride the Swamp Coaster all the way to the finish line.  The promoters wanted another niche article for this campaign, so here you go. W are lazy but we don’t put double spaces after periods. Hold on to your seat. This is Six Things Not to Miss at Elements Music and Arts Festival “24.

But as a wet-behind-the-ears neophyte, you undoubtedly and naturally have many questions regarding the festival. How you’ve made it this far is a mystery best left unsolved. But I digress. You’ve found your way to the wook wranglers, where we specialize in twenty-six dollar cigarettes and the bloody Mary with the dirt/ash rim. Your number one etherweb source for festival news and U.S. Farm Report and grain commodity analysis. With a festival of this size, one might be tempted to just hang out under the canopy and get the big eyes listening to STS9 on your phone’s speaker. This is not the way. There is a world of surprises just waiting to be discovered at Elements. We’re going to take a look so just sit back and let us drive. It’s all better now. This is what we do.

Pocono Raceway is a Goliath of a space with a plethora of immersive activities in every direction. The campsites are outside the venue so there’s plenty to see on your way to the show. Here’s a short list of a few of our wrangler favorites. Don’t miss out grasshopper.

Six Things Not to Miss at Elements Music and Arts Festival “24

• Fire Stage: This is the big boy. The home of thrill-seekers who thrive off moments of spontaneous, nebulous fun. Ignite your soul in the arms of the goddess of light, whose flames burn brightest at peak moments of the night. Fire takes center stage as the dance floor where all of the Elements family can get down together as one heartbeat to the groove. High energy tunes with dirty bass drops, funky rhythms, and beats that make you wiggle.

• Air: This temple of melodies tucked deep in the Elements forest, designed for those who seek to reawaken their soul. Retreat to a mystical landscape of dreamcatchers, treehouses, and disco balls where your spirit can refresh. Take a deep breath and feel your heart bloom as you get lost in a fog of grooves. Techno, House, Afrobeat, Ambient, and all that takes you throughout the long night.
• lespecial: Not sure how this hard-driving, rock band ended up at all the hippy festivals, but it works well and the wranglers have been at the receiving end of this exchange for many shows. lespecial is redefining the term “power trio”. The multi-instrumentalists from Connecticut continue to push the boundaries of what a three-piece band is capable of both live and in the studio. The band’s signature blend of “heavy future groove” combines headbanging metal riffage and surgical rhythmic precision with bone shaking 808s, sub synths and ethereal vocal stylings for a dance floor that welcomes moshing, dancing and hip swaying alike. Listeners are taken on a journey to the musical netherworld through esoteric soundscapes punctuated by raw, primal power.

• Bagdalini’s Sack of Wet Surprises: Happy Friendiversary. Ooooohhh yea. Don’t make it weird but some things can’t be unseen. Stop by Kamp Happiness and sign up for the free tick check with inappropriate comments included at no extra cost. Welcome to your own personal struggle puddle. Lucky is the guest who gets to realize the broad strokes of the double-wide paintbrush. The White Ninja is here to make all your dreams come true.
• Marvel Years: Cory Wythe, the producer and guitarist better known as Marvel Years, is much more than your average DJ/producer, Marvel Years incorporates electric guitar in his live performances. His approach to blending electronic beats and shredding soulful guitar on his original tracks and remixes creates a sound that is a unique hybrid. Get ready to get all the way down to Chinatown. 

• G Jones: Greg Jones is the artist behind the enigmatic G JONES moniker. A lauded master of electronic music production and highly sought after performer, G JONES is a collaborator of legendary artists such as Amon Tobin, Eprom, and DJ Shadow, who called Jones “the most gifted Ableton beatmaker I’ve ever seen.” Rolling Stone touted him as a “studio wizard.”  That’s what listening to G Jones will do. It’s a mental minefield of sudden drops and stutters, bass lines that open holes under your feet and send you shooting sideways to some warped mystery land.
• The Circle K? Hagglin’ Post: As always, be on the lookout for Pedro’s trading table. Bring your treasures and find bargains aplenty at any hour of the day. This week’s special is colored ping pong balls and “gently used” pine cone fetish plug. (Ed. bonus)
