Today Lee Reynolds and Memo Rex have released their Long Weekend EP, a fitting second addition to the Road To Desert Hearts EP series on Desert Hearts Records.
Following a strong start to the series with Porky and Mitch Dodge’s Chameleon, Lee Reynolds’ Long Weekend follows up his highly praised solo debut on the label, Can’t Rewind — which showed off just how experimental he likes to get in the studio. Long Weekend sees Reynolds continuing down this path, building an EP with Memo Rex that froths with heady grooves, bouncing percussion, and acid riffs for a record as quirky as it is danceable.
For five years, Desert Hearts Records has served as the creative conduit of the Desert Hearts community, signing records from a plethora of world class artists that have joined their ranks over the years. The label since grew into a powerhouse, signing the likes of wAFF, Rodriguez Jr., and Latmun, to name a few. Now, the time has come to bring things home and shift the focus to the ringleaders via the Road To Desert Hearts.
The Road To Desert Hearts not only shows off the distinctive sonic personalities of Mikey, Lee, Porky, and Marbs, but also kicks off a bustling year in which North America’s best will be brought into the spotlight. With the Desert Hearts crew leading the charge, expect a year full of forward-thinking and fresh beats that will serve as the perfect soundtrack leading into the 2020 festival and beyond in renowned venues like Space Miami, festivals like Vujaday and Lightning in a Bottle, and Dallas for the city’s inaugural Desert Hearts Black showcase.
