Desert Dwellers, Friend., Martin & Draven, Treavor Moontribe, Electronarcosis - Sat April 30 2022 - Reno, Nevada - Potentialist Workshop Desert Dwellers Saturday April 30th 2022 Bodhi Presents: Desert Dwellers https://soundcloud.com/desertdwellers Desert Dwellers is the convergence of music producers Amani Friend and Treavor Moontribe, who honed their individual skills in the mystical deserts of New Mexico and California, long before electronic music reached the mainstream. Amani and Treavor combine the raw sounds of the natural world, wrapped in dance-floor and chill-out productions; blending deep bass, earthy percussion, etheric voices, and cross-cultural instrumentation into a sonic incense for the mind and body. Desert Dwellers’ unique global sounds are a bridge between worlds, and their label Desert Trax has become a platform to spotlight similar alchemical artists. Brought together in the late ‘90s through the legendary Moontribe gatherings, in 2019 the duo celebrated their 20th anniversary of making music together, adding depth to their reputation as a pioneering and prolific downtempo, psybass, and tribal house act from the United States. The culmination of two decades of partnership has forged their Beatport #1 selling electronica album BREATH, out on Black Swan Sounds, which features more than20 musicians and vocalists over a 10-track journey. In 2020, the duo released a series of three BREATH remix albums across the BPM spectrum by a whole host of major figures in the industry. Desert Dwellers’ studio output is matched only by their extensive touring history, which juxtaposes performances at America’s most iconic venues like Red Rocks, festivals like Symbiosis, Lightning in a Bottle, Burning Man, and Coachella, with high-powered sets at the biggest trance festivals around the world; BOOM in Portugal and Rainbow Serpent in Australia. Desert Dwellers are equally at home in clubs as they are in yoga studios, and the jungles, deserts, and mountains of far-flung international festivals. www.desertdwellers.org www.deserttrax.com www.blackswansounds.com https://desertdwellersmusic.bandcamp.com/ https://www.facebook.com/desertdwellers https://soundcloud.com/desertdwellers https://twitter.com/desert_dwellers https://www.instagram.com/desert_dwellers_music/ With support from Friend. https://soundcloud.com/friend_music http://friendofficial.com Blending a wide array of organic instruments with a unique electronic twist, Friend.

Their style can best be described as deep bassy house-influenced techno with elements of futuristic synths, conventional instruments, and a hint of psychedelic. They have been performing events together in the Reno-Tahoe region for the past few years and separately for several decades spanning the globe with different styles of music from house to psytrance to rock and jazz. Come early to experience their special opening set! + Closing DJ Sets from: Treavor Moontribe https://soundcloud.com/treavor-moontribe Treavor Moontribe is one of the founders of the Los Angeles based “Moontribe Collective” and its legendary full moon desert gatherings. Since 1993, these events have been at the core of Southern California’s underground electronic music scene. Treavor established himself as one of the top Djs in LA thru these events and has since traveled the world from Brazil to Japan to Morocco, Portugal, Germany and all over North America. As a Dj it’s always been his diversity that’s set him apart from his peers. His love for music spans multiple genres and his DJing reflects this as he is just as known for Techno/Progressive as he is Psy Trance and various other forms of electronic music. In 2009 Treavor became the first American label DJ for Denmark based Iboga Records and released a compilation for them called Set9: Desert Selections. The compilation was an instant hit topping the psy trance chart on Beatport and the CD chart at PsyShop.com. In December 2011 Treavor joined the Neurobiotic Records family with his debut compilation called “Neuro:Minded” feat. Psy Trance songs from legendary artists like Dickster, Logica, The Commercial Hippies, Flip Flop, Polaris, and more. It was an instant success reaching #3 on the top Psy Trance songs chart at Beatport.com and #2 in the top releases chart. Over the years Treavor has also established himself as a dynamic music producer having released music under several project names. His most notable project by far is Desert Dwellers which is the convergence of music producers Amani Friend and Treavor Moontribe, who honed their individual crafts in the mystical deserts of California and New Mexico, long before electronic music reached mainstream. Desert Dwellers’ studio output is matched only by their extensive touring history, which juxtaposes performances at America’s most iconic festivals like Symbiosis, Lightning in a Bottle, Burning Man, and Coachella, with high-powered sets at the biggest trance festivals around the world; BOOM in Portugal and Rainbow Serpent in Australia. Desert Dwellers are equally at home in the clubs as they are in the yoga studios, and the jungles, deserts, and mountains of far-flung international festivals. www.facebook.com/desertdwellers www.facebook.com/DJTreavorMoontribe/ desertdwellersmusic.bandcamp.com/ www.desertdwellers.org Willy Electronarcosis Being a self-taught musician since the age of seven, Willy Electronarcosis started early in learning the fundamentals of music by exploring his passion through the mastery of drums, piano and guitar.
