Bee Mask (US) with Rites Wild and Secret BirdsSo much of writing about music is about scale. Something is 'expansive' or 'contained'; 'claustrophobic' or 'cavernous'. It's rare for something to be described as microscopic; music seems to exist at a scale that we can immediately apprehend. But Bee Mask (aka Chris Madak) makes synthesiser drone and low voltage hum that sounds like peering through a microscope. Which gives it a grandeur all its own. Maybe Wagner should have eschewed magical rings and valkyries for alleles and corpuscles. He'll be playing with Adelaide's drone-popstar Rites Wild and much-loved local psych journeyman Secret Birds.
