Desert Dwellers | Live Set at Envision Festival 2023 | Luna Stage

I chat about this mix a bit at the beginning of the recording. I went from mid-tempo breaks / bass music to tech house/ techno / breaks.. and then back to mid-tempo breaks / bass music.. over the course of 4 hours. 3 of the hours are recorded here. Unfortunately the last hour (sunrise, slower tempo bass music) wasn’t recorded because the battery on my recorder died! I kept it pretty psychedelic because I thought it fit the crowd :) Thanks for listening. <3

Patreon is the best way to support the music in exchange for early access to it, guest passes to shows and other rewards: https://www.patreon.com/LukeMandala

Luke’s dynamic live act includes playing a mixture of electronic and acoustic music while mixing in multiple live wind instruments and live drumming. His lifelong devotion to community dance medicine started at age 14 in 1998 when he started to DJ at northwest USA raveriffic events! He then started touring the world and releasing hundreds of songs released with a large number of the biggest labels in the world like Selador, Desert Hearts, Digital Structures, Dreaming Awake, Desert Trax, Booka Shade Music. 

This is deep piscean scorpio music, sprinkled with unusual sounds, unexpected twists, eclectic mix of global sounds, various tempos and grooves. It reflects stories of love-driven culture and open-minded ideas.  Depending on the crowd, the sets can vary from being pretty and uplifting to deep, dark, and primal, although they typically feature melodic and atmospheric textures infused with a lot of emotion.  Luke also has a functional (natural, root cause) medicine practice as this weaves so beautiful with dance and music medicine. He helps people heal frequent issues of the gut, metabolism and tiredness. 

Luke’s songs have been played by legends like Sasha, James Zabiela, Boris Brejcha, Solomon, Desert Dwellers, Dave Seaman, Kaya Project, and BLOND:ISH. Official remixes from artists like Desert Dwellers, Bluetech, Christian Martin, Chloe Harris, Kaminanda, Govinda, Roger Martinez, Pezzner, Robert Babicz, and Deya Dova.
