The Rise of Shamshini: The Dragon Spirit Voice of the Desert
In the quiet heart of the New Mexico desert, where the wind carries secrets and the stars shine brighter than anywhere else, a legend is being sung into life.
Her name is **Shamshini** — a voice born from sorrow, strength, and transformation.
Once a mortal girl with a hauntingly beautiful voice, she healed others with her songs even as she carried deep pain inside. Those who knew her remember her singing beneath the vast desert sky, her voice echoing through the canyons. Then, under the glow of a blood moon, she vanished — not lost, but transformed.
Awakening an ancient power within her — a dragon spirit that had always burned quietly beneath the surface — she crossed into a realm between worlds and returned renewed, a guardian for the lost and a light in the darkness.
She never returned alone.
A cloaked figure appears whenever she sings — a mysterious presence wrapped in music and shadows. Their connection runs deep, woven into every duet and echoed in every note. The truth of their bond is never spoken aloud, but those who truly listen find the story hidden in their harmonies. Each song is a chapter — revealing secrets, healing wounds, and weaving a tale of family, loss, and redemption.
At **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**, where magic meets music, Shamshini and this enigmatic figure create an experience unlike any other — a journey through sound, story, and spirit.
Their show invites you not just to listen, but to uncover the legend as it unfolds.

Fighting Wind & Weak WiFi: Off-Grid Musicians Battle the Desert to Go Live with Original Music!
**Dust, Wind & Desert Vibes: Why Our Live Music Schedule is a Bit Wild**
If you’ve followed us for any amount of time, you probably know we regularly host **live music sessions on TikTok**—featuring **Advocatus Diaboli**, **Shamshini**, and our moderator **Melodious**. But this year… the **wind** just won’t quit.
Living off-grid in the New Mexico desert means we’re at the mercy of Mother Nature and solar power. While we *can* use generators, we prefer to avoid burning gas unless absolutely necessary. That means no sun = limited power. And on top of that, the **wind** has made things especially tricky this season.
You might be wondering—**why does the wind matter for live music?** Here’s the thing: our wireless internet comes from a local provider and runs through a central hub on the property. From there, it’s repeated out to different zones. Our **music studio is made of metal**, and the repeater inside doesn’t work well with the doors closed. But when the wind kicks up, we **have to shut everything tight**—because desert sand doesn’t just blow by, it *invades*. Seriously, ever tasted sand? If not, visit during high winds and you’ll know exactly what we mean.
So when the doors are shut tight and the internet signal drops, we can’t stream. No signal = **no TikTok live**.
But we’re still here, still playing, and still connecting when we can. Make sure to **follow us on TikTok (@PlateauHameDeColquhoun and
@Advocatus.Diaboli0)** so you get notified whenever we go live. Whether you want to **listen to Shamshini and Advocatus Diaboli**, chat with us, request a song, or even join the live to share your own music or stories—we welcome you.
No pressure. No gifts required. Just come hang out and enjoy the music and weird desert energy.
And if you’re wondering what kind of music we play—**Advocatus Diaboli doesn’t stick to radio hits**. Expect parodies, originals, deep cuts, and songs that tell a story.

Live Music & Madness in the Desert – Advocatus Diaboli & Shamshini Burn It Down at Ka-Hoon Campground!
Live From the Desert: Music, Madness & Connection at Ka-Hoon Campground
Here at **Ka-Hoon Campground**, we’re not just off-grid—we’re off the charts. Streaming LIVE from the high desert of New Mexico, **Colquhoun Entertainment** brings you two weekly TikTok shows that blend music, community, and unexpected magic.
Follow us on TikTok:
**ColquhounEntertainment** and **AdvocatusDiaboli**
**“Voices of the Void”** – On a weekday night (usually announced same-day), Advocatus Diaboli takes you on a musical ride through classic rock, lesser-known gems, and deep lyrics that sometimes wander into existential territory. From vocals to raw emotion, it’s more than a show—it’s a moment.
**“Saturday’s Inferno”** – Saturday nights light up with both **Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini** sharing the spotlight. Think covers, original songs, and parody performances with a gritty desert twist. Our amazing moderator, **Melious**, keeps the community flowing and the chat alive. Whether you’re there to discover new music or get your favorite song sung in a whole new way—this is the place.
It’s all **broadcast live** from right here at **Ka-Hoon Campground**, where the winds are wild, the Wi-Fi is stubborn, and the creativity never stops. Weather and internet might slow us down some days, but they’ll never stop the show.
We’ve made a home in the chaos—and you’re invited.
**Don’t miss a beat. Follow, tune in, and become part of the Ka-Hoon family.**

Brent’s Healing, Music Magic & DIY Shower Build—Off-Grid Life Update!
We’re slowly finding our rhythm again. Brent starts physical therapy this week and is getting stronger every day! He can move his fingers a bit and tends to have the most control in the mornings. Singing has actually helped him gain a lot—music is magic like that. We truly believe he’ll be back to full strength soon.
This weekend, Anne and I are starting the long-awaited shower build here at the campground. While Brent *says* he’s fine using the Planet Fitness showers alone, I’m just not ready for that risk while he’s still recovering. We’ve got most of what we need and water delivery lined up. Once it’s done, it’ll be available for us and campers (with a small fee to cover propane and water).
Big thanks to everyone sending love and encouragement. We’re getting there—one day at a time.

Shamshini’s Solo Debut & Advocatus Diaboli Live – St. Patrick’s Day in Albuquerque!
**Shamshini’s Solo Debut & St. Patrick’s Celebration at Mini Red Velvet Underground**
Brent (aka Advocatus Diaboli ) and I ( Melodie , moderator—or whatever Advocatus decides to call me) have been battling a stubborn cold. Thankfully, we’ve tested negative for flu and COVID, but that didn’t stop Advocatus from pushing through when he was supposed to rest his voice.
Since he was *supposed* to take the night off from singing, Shamshini stepped up for her first solo live rehearsal—and she did great! It was a fun and unique experience, though, of course, Advocatus Diaboli just couldn’t resist joining in.
Now, we’re gearing up for an epic night of music, mayhem, and St. Patrick’s Day vibes! You’re invited to experience the magic of ** Advocatus Diaboli, Shamshini, and the animatronic band**—**Spliff on bass, Roach on drums, and Blunt on keyboards**—live at **Mini Red Velvet Underground in Albuquerque**.
Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band
📅 **Date:** March 16th
⏰ **Time:** 7:00 – 9:00 PM
📍 **Location:** Mini Red Velvet Underground, Albuquerque, NM
Come for the music, stay for the madness—let’s make this St. Paddy’s celebration one to remember!

Live Studio Sessions: Advocatus Diaboli Brings Animatronic Magic to TikTok & YouTube!
**Studio Sessions with Advocatus Diaboli: Live on TikTok and YouTube**
We’ve finally been able to get back into the studio! The cold weather and the need to conserve propane made it challenging, but last night we powered up the generator and spent an amazing evening in the studio. Advocatus Diaboli performed live on TikTok and YouTube, bringing their unique energy to the virtual stage.
We’re excited to do this more often, weather permitting! You’ll be able to catch Advocatus Diaboli—and occasionally Shamshini—performing live on TikTok through Ka-Hoon Campground. While we haven’t set a regular schedule yet, we’re working around weather, solar power, and the occasional use of the generator.
Last night, we attempted to record the show, but unfortunately, there was an issue with the mic settings, resulting in an echo. We’ll make sure to capture better recordings during the next live performance!
Don’t miss out—follow us on TikTok (@KaHoonCampground), subscribe on YouTube (Plateau Hame De Colquhoun), and follow us on Facebook (Ka-Hoon Plateau Hame De Colquhoun) to stay updated.

Halloween Hootenanny & Dance of the Dead: Live Performances by Advocatus Diaboli & Grim Leafer Band!
Yesterday, we took the day off and relaxed by watching football with our neighbors. After dropping Anne off at work, we enjoyed some downtime, caught a few games, and did a few small tasks around the house. It was a nice break, especially after the excitement of Saturday’s Music in the Desert Talent Show and Karaoke.
This week is going to be busy with appointments and Anne’s work schedule. We also have to take care of a few things, like putting new brakes on the car. Most importantly, we’ll be spending a lot of time rehearsing, as ** Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band ** has some upcoming shows! We’ve got a few new songs to introduce, and we’re fine-tuning all the new conversions we’ve made. During Saturday’s show, we found an error in one of the songs, but it ended up being a funny moment. We’ll definitely be fixing that one—but we might just keep the mixed-up version for laughs!
**Upcoming Performances for Advocatus Diaboli **:
– **Saturday**: Halloween Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
– **November 1st**: Halloween Dance of the Dead at Red Gorilla Studios
