In early 2017, Amani Friend re-envisioned selections from his rich Liquid Bloom catalog to deliver new downtempo compositions into a contemporary electronic space. Subsequent to that Re.Generations release, Canadian producer AtYyA selected seven of the album's tracks to put his own spin on them. Crafting whole new worlds around Liquid Bloom collaborators Porangui, Deya Dova, Ixchel Prisma, Numatik, and more, Tyler Clark generously imbues his signature tribal tonic into these works, for a mysterious and pulsing fresh spin on these re-imaginings - one that balances of Amani Friend's remixes with an intriguing, contrasting darkness

Desert Dwellers -  New Generation (Temple Step Project Remix)

Temple Step Project - Truth And Grace

KEY-G - Omen’s and Artifacts
Key-G’s 7 Track album “Omens & Artifacts” drops on Desert Tax on October 20th. This Spain producer is rapidly forging his own psy-dub sound, similar to artists like OTT and Globular, and offers a refreshing journey through diverse instrumentation, thoughtful progression, and clean production. From the luscious moods of Third Eye Girl, to Fairy Faith’s warm and welcoming groove, “Omens & Artifacts” is an essential listen, and sure to keep you tuned into the journey. We are thrilled to welcome Key-G to the Desert Trax family.

Key - G - Omens & Artifacts

For Amani Friend and his Liquid Bloom project, the Re:Generations mixes are a gift that keeps on giving. First remixed by AtYyA, who took on the entire album by himself, now an all-star cast of subsonic wizards from around the globe are putting their own spin on these intoxicating tunes. 

Stars of the psychedelic world like Hedflux and Land Switcher pump thrilling bass into “Roots of the Earth”and “Fire Gathering,” respectively. Kaminanda takes “Sacred Blessing” on a more than 11-minute epic journey. Numatik ignites new life into Fire Gathering .Suduaya, Momentology, Salis, and Nanosphere run the gamut from rich, organic strings and ethereal voices to dark, brooding, and bellowing sub bass covering the spectrum from delicate, ambience to pounding grooves. TRIBONEonce again remixes Deya Dova for a Desert Trax release, and Erothyme closes out the collection with a sprawling anthem of lush sounds. 

This album includes a bonus Music Video download of "Emerging Heart Nanosphere Remix" created by Matt Worldly.

Roots Of The Earth (Hedflux Remix)

The Desert Trax aesthetic covers grooves across the BPM gamut. In pursuit of the slow house, electronica, and deep house sweet spot, From Sand to Stone calls upon Desert Trax veterans and up-and-comers alike to carefully craft rich, flowing remixes of classic tunes from the catalog in the heart-centric tempo range. The result is a gorgeous journey featuring Bellhop, Zen Baboon, and Doppel with a pair of Liquid Bloom & Poranguí reworkings along with a trifecta of tunes from newcomer Forever & Ever taking on classics from Random Rab, Mose, and label heads Desert Dwellers. On February 9, cross the spectrum From Sand to Stone.

Liquid Bloom Dj Set @ Ecstatic Dance Costa Rica

The end of 2018 brings a new chapter to Liquid Bloom’s remix story as producer Amani Friend hands the reigns of one of his very first tracks over to nine rising and eminent producers for a contemporary reimagining. Whispers of Our Ancestors Remixes is the tale of a single journey told through nine different perspectives, each offering their own interpretation of the meditative soundscape first envisioned by Amani over twelve years ago. 

Like most of Liquid Bloom’s original tracks, “Whispers of Our Ancestors” draws upon a myriad of soothing instrumentals, delicate vocals, and serene elemental samples to create a musical landscape inspired by the shamanic experience and intended for inner exploration. Colored with gentle intrusions of Native American flutes and rattles, Indian-style stringwork, and hauntingly beautiful chanting, the track has offered its remixers a trove of provocative stems and samples to guide their unique sonic visions.

Within the collection, listeners encounter everything from broken-beat chillout and psychedelic bass to slow-house rhythms and techno-styled progressive beats. Connected by the defining features of the original track, each remixer uses distinct beat and bass elements to shape their tracks and explore the boundless layers hidden within the source material. 

Among the more expansive remixes, Master Minded offers up a hallucinatory array of fresh tribal instrumentals and energetic synths backed by an indulgent broken beat, while Ancestral Elephants adds a soothing beat progression that relishes in the slow and hypnotic potential of Liquid Bloom’s iconic soundscapes. Desert Tracks label artist Stratusphere explores the delicate and emotive aspects of Whispers with a richly textured psychill interpretation that could easily serve as an opening track to an emotional live performance.  

On the dancier side of the spectrum, past Liquid Bloom collaborator Drumspyder adds his signature drum styling and lively stringwork in an energetic, house-styled interpretation ready for the dance floor. On a similar wavelength, Desert Trax artist Griffin Paisley brings his ethereal “slow house” styling to the collection in an atmospheric journey ripe for morning explorations on a dusty dance floor.   

Downtempo producer and instrumentalist Momentology comes together with DJ Taz Rashid to offer up two profoundly different remixes: one, a progressive techno-styled dance floor tune,

Whispers Of Our Ancestors (Moon Frog Remix)

These frames are the frames of my soul as I keep flowing in the journey of creation.
This journey is a path that goes beyond therapy and beyond the need for healing of our human kind into the picture of the world as an infinite frame of stories within stories all depending on one another for the realization of the harmony within the totality of stories.
Reflections are our way of looking at our own essence and yet learn something new each time we look.
The message in this story is not these words or this music in this album rather, 
the message is always - listen.
You are perceiving all and yet you make this whole into infinite yous. 
Infinite point of views
Of you and you and you. 
Thank you for listening.
