DJ MIXES

You've heard of the Omicron variant, now get ready for The Homie Chron variant! It’s much sicker.. (pun intended)

It’s been way too long since I put out a studio mix and I’m sitting on way too many heaters you probably haven’t heard, so here we are…

I recorded this one in Ableton so I could go in after recording and tighten it all up by removing any little section I wasn’t in love with and the result is a fast-paced, sonic journey that is constantly changing and I approve of every second of it. The creation process took quite a bit longer but the end result is worth it. 

Acid bass and techy breaks into Halftime DNB and everything in between. 128-170 bpm. Enjoy the ride!

Space Travelers

A 2 part mix: Side A is filled with sexy deep house groovers (120-130 BPM) and Side B is higher energy, mostly leftfield techno, UKG, & future dub (130-145 BPM). I recorded this mix several times to get it as perfect as I could. I'm really pleased with how it turned out. This is my firwst mix I've released in 2025 and I promise it's worth the wait! <3 Enjoy!

Check Mix: Side B [Party Blend]

Check Mix: Side A [Honey Nut]

Honestly, how fucking rad is DINK!? Along with being one of the most talented guys we know, he also happens to be one of the funniest. For our Desert Hearts 3 Year Anniversary Festival, DINK! came up with his own special theme for his set, "Dink'n Donuts". While scantily clad women passed out coffee and donuts to the crowd, dancing stuffed animals and wigs took over the stage as DINK! laid down one of the best sets we've heard him play. Genre bending his way through House, Techno, Industrial, Breaks, and you name it, this set was a ridiculously sick way to spend Sunday afternoon at our 3 Year Anniversary.

Road To Desert Hearts - Spring 2017

Recorded live April 15, 2017 at Kava Lounge in San Diego, CA for Skwish presents: Goopsteppa, Shiny Things, DINK!

I decided to switch things up and play a rare bass music set last Spring.  It was fun to go back to my roots and play different genres that I haven't played in years.  I'm pleased with the way it turned out, and was able to mix in quite a bit of variety.  Contains some soulful dub and some heavy hitters as well. Enjoy!

DINKstep [Bass/Dub/Leftfield mix]

What could we possibly say about DINK! that conveys how much love we have for the guy? He's been part of the crew since the very beginning and he'll be part of the crew until the end of time. He's one of the most quirky, brilliant, and loving people we've ever met and when he plays his music is a direct reflection of his spirit within. We know you're going to love this set from 2pm on Friday afternoon at our DH Spring Festival 2017 as DINK! set the tone for an entire weekend of House, Techno, & Love...
