Amtrac will welcome the festival’s early arrivals at Bang Bang on Friday night. On Saturday, a daytime set from Catz ‘N Dogz at Kettner Exchange leads into a three-act spectacle at Bang Bang with Erol Alkan, Rory Phillips, and The 2 Bears. Maetrik, Marc Romboy, Booka Shade, Eclair Fifi, and Ladytron will also take stages across the city on Saturday night, along with the Hard Rock Hotel’s afterparty madness.

On Sunday, a pair of daytime sets from Classixx at Kettner Exchange and Cut Snake at the Hard Rock Hotel get things started.

Desert Hearts Releases Family & Friends Volume 3

Desert Hearts Releases Family & Friends Volume 3

The Family & Friends series from Desert Hearts Records is an ode to what the Desert Hearts crew does best: house, techno, deep house, and tech-house. Riddled with label stalwarts old and new, this collection of songs samples exactly what you’d hear at a Desert Hearts party.

The third installment of the Family & Friends series is comprised of 19 tracks that represent every shade of Desert Hearts. With artists Andrea Henneberg, Sacha Robotti, Cut Snake, NiQW, Sydney Blu, Rich Pinder, and many more, there is no shortage of fresh tracks on the collection.

The opener is a song from Andrea Henneberg, aptly titled “Desert Hearts.” It begins with a robotic voice repeating, “Desert Hearts,” which then proclaims, “Let’s rock that shit.” It’s a fun start to this third volume and sets the listener up for the rest of the collection, in which, of course, the artists are rocking that shit. Crank the volume and enjoy.
