Local Love: Amanda Panda in LA (mybeatfix.com)

I was at the beach with some mates and this classic tune came on.  I remembered how much I enjoyed it as a kid and how much I still do.  I was soon bit by the inspiration bug and cranked out this edit.  I hope it brings you heaps of sunshine, groove, and fun!  
Thanks for listening \m/

Phil Collins - Another Day In Paradise (Hendo Froth Club Edit)

Our love affair with Andreas Henneberg continues this week as we share with you his 2nd DJ set from our Desert Hearts 3 Year Anniversary, this time courtesy of his Cascandy alter ego.  If Andreas Henneberg represents the raw power in his music, Cascandy represents the fun and the light-hearted.  Recorded live on Sunday afternoon at our 3 Year Anniversary Festival, this set was one of the most enjoyable and love-filled 2 hours of the weekend. We really hope you've loved getting to know Andreas as much as we have these past couple of months, because we have a brand new release from his The Glitz alias dropping on Desert Hearts Records on March 21st.  And good god it's fantastic!

House, Techno, & Love... We Are All Desert Hearts. <3

Live @ Desert Hearts - Cascandy DJ Set - 054

Pigeons And Planes Premiere: http://pigeonsandplanes.com/discover/2016/09/dj-premier-shadows-crawl-torii-wolf

While Premier has previously collaborated with iconic female artists, in none of the aforementioned examples has the iconic producer/DJ produced the entirety of one of their projects. With a resume like Premier’s, it takes a lot to get his attention—and perhaps more importantly his respect. 

Enter Torii Wolf, a singer-songwriter and musician from Wantagh, New York who traded coasts–bouncing around West Coast cities and enhanced herself artistically; shunning categories, confinement, and convention.  Torii also just happens to be the first female artist to have her entire project (the forthcoming album entitled Flow Riiot) produced by Preemo.  “Torii has such a weird, wicked style,” Premier offers. “It’s just very left field—reminiscent of a Bjork or something like that; image-wise, there is no comparison. Subject-wise, Torii is in a whole different place.”

“Shadows Crawl” inception has quite an interesting backdrop and it was the last track recorded for Flow Riiot; as it was the only track Preemo did not specifically create for Torii, the track was initially sent to Yuna who ended up picking another demo from Premier (that demo would later resurface as “Places To Go,” which was the lead-single from Yuna’s latest album).  Torii was the beneficiary and upon being played the instrumental, she wrote “Shadows Crawl” on the spot and cut the vocals. Premier immediately knew it was going to be the second single from their collaborative project.

Real DJ’s do real things and just as he did with Torii’s first single, the aptly-titled “1st,” by getting Dilated Peoples to hop on the remix, he and Torii have tapped another fast-rising star in Jamla/Roc Nation’s Rapsody for a remix of “Shadows Crawl.” “I felt Rapsody fit the picture perfectly” DJ Premier relayed to Pigeons & Planes.  “Of course to make it complete, I threw in some scratches in the intro for the underground DJ’s so we always have that representation.” In her comments to Pigeons & Planes, Torii was very eager to hear where Rapsody would take the remix “I was very excited to work with Rapsody and to hear what she could do with this and I couldn’t be happier with how it came out.  Rapsody adds an entirely new vibe to the record and fully emulated the concept of the song in her own unique way and voice.  Her flow tells a story so inline with what I wrote about.  I’m honored to be working with such incredible people and artists."

Rapsody obviously enjoyed playing with the concept of the track, as she stated “I had fun working on this.  I thought the concept was creative, so I just wanted to expand on the idea of having these inner secrets of loving someone else and that coming out in the middle of the night; talking in your sleep—laying next to your lover.  I love the song and really enjoyed working with Torii, her sound is so unique.  Her and Preemo sound so dope together. I was happy to be a part of it all.” 

A hip-hop king who has a habit of contributing and producing historic projects behind the boards, mixed with Torii Wolf’s full clip of moods, range, and vast musical talent. What’s not to like?  Torii and Premier’s collaborative union bum-rushes the walls of genre, age, and expectations to let the world know there’s a Flow Riiot going on.

Torii Wolf f/ Rapsody 'Shadows Crawl (Open Eyes DJ Premier Remix)'

Into My Mind - Yin/Yang - 05

[Tracklist Provided Below]

Time to see what’s in there … For this mix I focused on meshing moods and further evolving the Yin & Yang project. It digs deep and travels to the weird, bizarre, sexy, groovy, techie goodness that I’m so obsessed with. The focus was to combine natural and organic sounds with more urban and club grooves. It explores everything from deep and dark to colorful and happy. The balance between man and nature has always been an interest of mine and with all the craziness in the world right now it’s nice to get lost in some music. There’s no better way to turn on and tune out than an old fashion sonic voyage. Enjoy!

Moon Harbour Radio 83: Matthias Tanzmann | Moon Harbour Radio December Special

I remember this set vividly. It was the weekend after I had just returned from going to day zero out in Tulum. That event in the middle of the jungle left such a lasting impression on me - you can easily hear its influence in this track selection. I hope you enjoy this mix as much as I loved playing it.

OFF OF live @ Bang Bang 1.20.2017

While still waiting on the mixes to be chopped up from our Desert Hearts Festival 2017, we wanted to give you one of our favorite throw back sets from our 2016 festival, our boy Evan Casey at 4am on Sunday night. Evan's been a part of our family since the very beginning and he truly shines at the latest part of the night when the freaks come out. You can tell by R. Fentz's face in the background that it's crunk hour. O_o

Enjoy the beatdown.

Complex Premiere: http://www.complex.com/music/2017/08/torii-wolf-macklemore-dj-premier-free

Shunning categories, genres, confinement and convention, Torii Wolf has emerged onto the music scene as if she was shot out of a cannon. Thanks to her sultry voice, range and musicality, leading up to her solo-debut, Torii has enjoyed a precipitous rise and already premiered music with Pitchfork, Complex, Pigeons & Planes, Mass Appeal, Vibe & Okayplayer and been tapped for Vevo’s “dscvr” series (past alumni include Sam Smith, Alessia Cara, Tove Lo, Hozier & DNCE). 

With an iconic producer who has a habit of producing and contributing to classic projects manning the boards, Torii & Preem's collaborative union bum-rushes the walls of genres, age and expectations to let the world know a Flow Riiot is upon us.

“Produced By DJ Premier.” From Gang Starr, The Notorious B.I.G, Jay-Z, Nas, Dr. Dre, Kanye West, Mos Def, Common, Mac Miller, Snoop Dogg, Cee-Lo Green, The Game, KRS-One, Ludacris, Joey Bada$$ and his most recent vehicle PRhyme; over the course of twenty-five trendsetting years, those four words have become synonymous with the cornerstone of hip-hop’s sound.

However, “Preemo” as he’s affectionately known, has always been a conduit for artists of all genres to affix their lyrics to his complex rhythms—D’Angelo, Janet Jackson, Miguel, Anderson .Paak, Lion Babe, Macy Gray, Neneh Cherry, Maroon 5 & Christina Aguilera (which his work won a Grammy for) to name just a few. Throughout it all; Grammy’s, Platinum & Gold plaques, undeniable icon status, Premier has orchestrated a sound that remains a hallmark of positive and advanced music. 

Flow Riiot’s anthemic lead-single “Free” f/ Macklemore & DJ Premier tackles the battle we face every day to be our authentic selves and a reminder that our freedom comes from within and how we hold the key to how “Free” we really are. 

“When we had our first meeting to compile which songs were going to make the album, King Of Chill plays this track that I hadn’t heard” DJ Premier stated to Complex.  “It was only a beat and Torii was singing a line from The Police’s “Voices  Inside My Head.”  I asked both of them; why have I never heard this?  It needed lyrics, but we removed the hook because I wanted to scratch on it. Torii came back to the studio, wrote and recorded her vocals and she decided to call it “Free.”  I was instantly hooked on this being one of the single releases from the album.” 

The tracks topic matter holds very special meaning to Torii as well, as she expressed to Complex.  “Free” is a special tune.  It’s very relatable.  True freedom comes from within; it’s the battle we face each day with our own identity. Having the confidence to be comfortable in our skin and with who we are; and being our true authentic selves. I find the content of someone else’s mind most attractive.  Feeling free in my gender fluidity and the way I connect with other humans is vital to my being.  To feel safe in outwardly expressing what it is that ignites a spark in me can be very challenging in the society we live in. However, it’s only harder when I try and resist it. It feels very important for me to lead by example in sharing with others how we are in control of our own destiny.  To be in touch with ourselves in knowing what we want, who we are and what feels good is such a gift.  It radiates and it is very liberating.  Allowing your spirit to shine can be contagious and that freedom from within is the light that we all need. I’d also like to mention how without even getting to in-depth with him conceptually, Macklemore’s verse fell so in line with the feel so organically.  Ben’s words are so dope and I feel so grateful to hold space for them on this record. “my spar partner is the devil, but I train with God” and “as long as I’m me, then you know that I’m free”; are such incredible lines that truly resonate.”
