Part mythical desert harlequin, part modern soul conductor, Mikey Lion is more than a DJ––He’s a freak of nature and an energy controller. The San Diego-native has earned a dusty mystique over the past few years as the center of the Desert Hearts movement and as a house and techno provocateur with a stage presence that suggests he will ride this wave all the way to the top. If there's one thing Mikey does well, it's get the party started.

Lion, real name Michael Leon, has brought the mothafuckin' ruckus to the stages of Lightning in a Bottle, the dustiest storms at Burning Man, and The Do LaB at Coachella, earning nods from Claude VonStroke, Jamie Jones, and Green Velvet in the process. In doing so, Lion and his signature top hat have developed a boisterous voice in the House & Techno scene with strong tribal, hip-hop, and psychedelic elements.

But it all started with Wu-Tang and Daft Punk. Lion first found his way behind the decks as a thirteen year old kid, scratching underground hip-hop records religiously after school. At Coachella as a seventeen year old, he witnessed that legendary Daft Punk performance on the same night he tasted his first dose of psychedelics. The show had such a monumental impact on him, he gave up Hip-Hop and became a House DJ the very next day.

After honing his craft with weekly marathon DJ sessions at Sala Razzmatazz in Barcelona, Mikey was introduced to Burner culture at Lightning in a Bottle, 2011. It was at his first Burning Man in 2011 that he found a community calling and merged forces with his brother Porkchop, life long friends Marbs & Deep Jesus, and the inimitable Lee Reynolds to form The Desert Hearts Crew.

In November 2012, Desert Hearts began as a seedy, 200-person renegade gathering deep in the Mojave Desert. The intrepid crew barely survived a set of extreme weather conditions and unfortunate circumstances, but that first party sparked a fire. The entire point of that first Desert Hearts was to create as much love as humanly possible, and now that same gathering has evolved into the darling of the West Coast house and techno scene. The Bi-annual festival is capped at 3500 attendees in order to create the best possible vibe. Built upon beautiful people getting as weird as possible to deep and trippy house and techno, Desert Hearts has already achieved iconic status in the North American Festival Scene. 

Desert Hearts has given rise to a family of thousands and it's safe to call it a bonafide movement of love. And while Desert Hearts Records launched in 2014 as a totally-free record label, pushes the sonic aesthetic of the scene, the crew’s busy international calendar of bookings has the DH message spreading far and wide. At the center of it all is Mikey Lion, the dusty prince of desert hearts, a beacon of weird far and wide, and one of this generation’s most compelling agents of love.

The success of Chriss Ronson could be explained by the time he spent in music history but as we can see through numerous examples the lack of being able to renew could only hold a very few within the music scene. This holds exceptionally true for the electronic scene which is all about progress and renewal since its sole existence – or about change if you like. Chriss has all these capabilities and had all along, which is brilliantly proven by his album SWITCH, as we can speak about a forward-looking album in all aspects and which stands its’ ground on international standards as much as any publication of any other famous prodcer’s latest release. 
SWITCH in this sense is much more plastic in its sound, accommodates to the contemporary electornic music still not a genre release and on which you can truly feel the musicality that drove Criss during the past decades, who on the other hand could manage to create himself in the  intelligent way without any manner and mannerism using his own sound to it.
In compliance with this the flow of the whole album is built on one single perfect structure owing greately to the order of tracks and their separate sets. If we want to see the personality of their creator by all means in it then we could say that Chriss Ronson truly put his personal changes into this album, effects that influenced him and of which the titles of each song tells us a bit along with the already mentioned structure. Not to mention that he could manage to make this with such mucical support as Balázs Fehér, MC Fedora, Sab Martenius or Myra Monoka who all participated in the album for a song and who are all epic figures of the Hungarian light music. 
SWITCH in this sense is one Chriss Ronson’s most characteristic and most ’perceptable’ album which addresses the audience like a swtich that definitively connects the producer, the DJ with the audience and with that media that switches from reality to a different spiritual level the moment the DJ stands behind the mixer and the lights go off.

Tampa, Florida based DJtheJudd has been DJing since 2002. Growing up as the typical American teen on rap and alternative rock, he realized his true love for dance music after hearing electronic albums "Play" by Moby and "Dreamland" by Robert Miles in the late 90's. While studying abroad in college, he first heard "Another Chance" by Roger Sanchez on MTV Europe, and he went deep down the dance music rabbit hole. His biggest influences are Paul Oakenfold, Sasha, John Digweed, Gabriel & Dresden, Dave Seaman, Markus Schulz, and Danny Tenaglia. With a trademark eclectic DJing style, he blends progressive house classics and newer tech house tracks with various ambient sounds and songs from movie soundtracks. In 2021, he started his own radio show "Progressive House Highway" on SoundCloud, which now has over 500 episodes with streams in 153 countries.
