Experience the epic eclipse vibes and a whole gang of ridiculous bangers from the chabuddies that will surely get you movin' and groovin'! 🙌

In their own words:
“We kicked off our DH takeover during sunset on Saturday at the Sky Stage and were dialed into the zone from dusk ‘til dark. It’s honestly one of our favorite sets we’ve ever played together - the DH fam came out hard and the energy was next level. We both had been saving up some crazy tracks to unleash in Texas and we really dig how it came out. Hope you all enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed playing! ❤️” -Lee & Porky

Keep an eye out for pt. 2 with Mikey Lion and Marbs!

What's up Desert Hearts Family,

I'm so excited to release my set from Desert Hearts Festival 2024. This fest marked the 12th year of Desert Hearts and the dawn of a new era at our home in Flagstaff, AZ. It's been a rocky and uncertain 5 years for us since losing our venue during the pandemic, but DHF 2024 was the great reset button as we threw, in my opinion, the best and most special festival we've ever thrown. The vibe and the magic were untouchable. I might be biased, but I've always said I'd put Desert Hearts Fest up against any party in the world, and for four days, I believe we achieved that. What's scary to think about is how much better next year is going to be now that we've got our bearings under us at the new venue...

Anyway, I hope you enjoy my set recorded during sunset on Saturday, July 6th at Desert Hearts Festival 2024. Dig in and let me know which tracks you're feelin'!

We got loads more sets from the fest dropping weekly and many of them with video recordings on our Desert Hearts YouTube.

Mary Droppinz is the only person that's allowed to play bass music at Desert Hearts Festival ;) 

Mary is Desert Hearts Family through and through. She used to run our social media marketing back in the day while simultaneously attending music production school. Now she's blowing tf up and there's no one prouder than us. Her set at Desert Hearts fused house and dubby bass, and it was such a vibe. We hope you love this set as much as we love Mary.

Apologize for taking so long to release this set, as I was waiting for a few special edits to be cleared. I had to cut my set a few minutes short, but good news.. These tunes will see the light of day. Justin Martin's rework of 'Set It Off'- Strafe, one of my favorites will finally be released later this year! xx

Part mythical desert harlequin, part modern soul conductor, Mikey Lion is more than a DJ––He’s a freak of nature and an energy controller. The San Diego-native has earned a dusty mystique over the past few years as the center of the Desert Hearts movement and as a house and techno provocateur with a stage presence that suggests he will ride this wave all the way to the top. If there's one thing Mikey does well, it's get the party started.

Lion, real name Michael Leon, has brought the mothafuckin' ruckus to the stages of Lightning in a Bottle, the dustiest storms at Burning Man, and The Do LaB at Coachella, earning nods from Claude VonStroke, Jamie Jones, and Green Velvet in the process. In doing so, Lion and his signature top hat have developed a boisterous voice in the House & Techno scene with strong tribal, hip-hop, and psychedelic elements.

But it all started with Wu-Tang and Daft Punk. Lion first found his way behind the decks as a thirteen year old kid, scratching underground hip-hop records religiously after school. At Coachella as a seventeen year old, he witnessed that legendary Daft Punk performance on the same night he tasted his first dose of psychedelics. The show had such a monumental impact on him, he gave up Hip-Hop and became a House DJ the very next day.

After honing his craft with weekly marathon DJ sessions at Sala Razzmatazz in Barcelona, Mikey was introduced to Burner culture at Lightning in a Bottle, 2011. It was at his first Burning Man in 2011 that he found a community calling and merged forces with his brother Porkchop, life long friends Marbs & Deep Jesus, and the inimitable Lee Reynolds to form The Desert Hearts Crew.

In November 2012, Desert Hearts began as a seedy, 200-person renegade gathering deep in the Mojave Desert. The intrepid crew barely survived a set of extreme weather conditions and unfortunate circumstances, but that first party sparked a fire. The entire point of that first Desert Hearts was to create as much love as humanly possible, and now that same gathering has evolved into the darling of the West Coast house and techno scene. The Bi-annual festival is capped at 3500 attendees in order to create the best possible vibe. Built upon beautiful people getting as weird as possible to deep and trippy house and techno, Desert Hearts has already achieved iconic status in the North American Festival Scene. 

Desert Hearts has given rise to a family of thousands and it's safe to call it a bonafide movement of love. And while Desert Hearts Records launched in 2014 as a totally-free record label, pushes the sonic aesthetic of the scene, the crew’s busy international calendar of bookings has the DH message spreading far and wide. At the center of it all is Mikey Lion, the dusty prince of desert hearts, a beacon of weird far and wide, and one of this generation’s most compelling agents of love.
