....-@хуеть !!!! Лютая движуха 👻👻👻🙌

Lee - this mix reminds me what incredible DJ you are ✊❤️

Finally got my recording back from LIB and I'm immediately transported back to the rollercoaster of emotions I experienced that weekend. 

Between the heat, dust and being around tens of thousands of people after going through a pandemic, it's safe to say I was a little rusty at festivaling. On top of it, my legs felt like floppy noodles from how anxious I was to play the prime set time Friday night at the Junkyard. This is something I experience often before gigs, the sweats, self deprecating internal thoughts, imposter syndrome. I questioned if I belonged here or if I earned it. Then I mixed in and immediately felt at home. I thought to myself "Bitch you know what you're doing" and went on to play one of those "highlights of my career" sets for me personally. 

The rest of the night and weekend was a breeze, and the magic of LIB was amplified. I was able to see the thousands of smiling faces in front of me, the above and beyond details The Do Lab had added and updated, and realized this was so many people's first festival back and they could not be happier about it. I could not be happier about it. 

I hope that you enjoy it and that you're happy too. 

P.S. it's just in time to secure your tickets for 2023. Get your tickets on Thursday, November 17th when they go live!

Cloud 10: Episode IV

The feeling of playing at DISTRIKT is out of this world. Grateful to have been brought back this year with so many friends & fam. My mind is always blown away by our loving & beautiful creative community. Thanks to the crew for working so hard each year to give the gift, of a one of a kind priceless experience. This years dust storm during my set was the craziest one I’ve experienced in 7 years, and while some could run from it, you all embraced it, adding mystery & mischief, to the already magical afternoon.  Let’s relive that dusty crazy Tuesday together again.

Upcoming Events

DJ Kramer - Pink Mammoth - Burning Man 2017

Always a pleasure to share the night with one of my favorites, John Digweed. A deep, soulful, groovy light techno warm up, with splashes of ambient, dark tones, trippy touches & a whole lot of love .  Celebrating 20 years of Bedrock, at Vagabonds at Large, (Sql Miami) Such a special night this was. Until next time <3

Tara Brooks Live - Bedrock Vagabonds at Large WMC 2018

For this installment, I went a lot deeper than I’ve gone in a while. 

Inspired by the first heavy rain this winter, I found myself imagining a story about Rebirth, Life & Death, and the Infinite Flow of things being created as other things are destroyed. 

The accompanying art pieces shape a visual for this narrative. The whole idea of the project is to tell stories through music and art together in singularity.

So sit back, grab some headphones, and join me on a trip through my mind.

What's Up Desert Hearts Family,

This week we bring you Tara Brooks' live set from the 2019 festival.

We are feeling all sorts of nostalgia with this one. Tara played our Saturday at 4 am slot, and ushered in those late night to early morning vibes with an exhibition into the tantric house grooves we all know and love her for.

House, Techno, Love... We Are All Desert Hearts.

Live @ Desert Hearts 2019 - Tara Brooks - 123

Here's my birthday set from the awesome Psychedelic Love Box party, May 17, 2013. Needless to say I was on a good one ;-)
43 feels good so far!

Lee's 43rd Bday Set @ Psychedelic Love Box

Just as rave culture was making its first waves in the UK in 1988, a mad English kid named Lee Reynolds rode his BMX bike across the Atlantic to Los Angeles, carrying with him dreams of big air and sunny skies. He was as wild then as he is now, it’s just that on two wheels, Reynolds’ lack of abandon resulted in broken bones, not broken beats. In 1992, he limped off the ramp one last time and soon found himself lost to electronic psychedelia, and thusly one of the West Coast’s finest DJs began his path to the Desert Hearts movement and the hysteria he now conjures with every performance. 

Now, a quarter century later, Reynolds has a lifetime’s worth of experience bringing the weird and the wonderful to the dancefloor. He earned his chops up and down the West Coast in the dance scene’s dustier institutions––Moontribe, Moonshake, LiB––That’s where he developed his endlessly wide palate, penchant for mysticism, and an understanding that a dance party should be a spiritual experience. 

“When I DJ, I want people to feel ecstatic, in a zone, in the moment, like the only thing that matters is the dance,” he says. “I don’t want to play music that people can dance to, I want to play music that makes people dance. I want it to sound like aliens are about to land on the dancefloor.”

In 2011, It was an encounter with a plucky bunch of San Diegans barely out of their teens that was the calling Lee Reynolds had spent his whole life working towards. Alongside Mikey Lion, Deep Jesus, Marbs, and Porkchop, Reynolds formed Desert Hearts and the rest is history in motion. Over the past three years of bi-annual renegade ragers and relentless touring, “Papa” Lee Reynolds has developed into the patriarch of the fastest growing and most visible cultural movement in all of stateside dance music.

“My real role in Desert Hearts is more on a spiritual level, making sure we spread a positive message and do the right thing,” says Reynolds. Wise words, maybe, but behind the decks, Reynolds is a maniacal presence as he channels his past lives, tastes, adventures, and perspectives into a dancefloor magic that captures you upon first beat and does not release: House, techno, acid, and breaks, they’re all conjured up in a plume of purple haze and that little mad bastard is at the center of it all. 

Dance music now is so often about fast rises and immediate gratification, but Lee Reynolds’ story is a reminder that some beats taste better when slowly fried over the course of 25 years. “I’ve been obsessed with this shit forever and I’ve always believed the madness was coming,” says Reynolds. Well, the madness has commenced, and it seems like it’s here for good––and Lee Reynolds is conducting the score.
