Into It

The Fellas

 is making her highly anticipated New York headline debut on the Roof of Superior Ingredients on September 15th, bringing her groovy blend of deep and tech-house to the stage. Sharing the stage with names like Max Styler, Dombresky, and Bastian Bux over the years, and now having her own headline show, marks a significant milestone in her growing career and promises to be a huge party for something special like this!

Born in Germany and raised in the sunny town of Sitges, Spain, Tini’s journey into the music world began in 2013. Her natural passion for DJing quickly propelled her from small local parties to a notable three-year residency at the famed Pacha Barcelona. Her strong stage presence and lethal USB have made her a favorite at iconic clubs such as Space and Pacha Ibiza.

Nothing Expected

As a resident for Spain’s most iconic party, elrow, Tini has established her status in the industry. Her performances have been nothing short of magnetic, sharing stages with international artists like Jamie Jones, Andrea Oliva, Joseph Capriati, and many more names. These collaborations have not only expanded her reach but have also enriched her sound, making her a staple in house music.

The year 2024 has already been busy for Tini, with significant plays at the Ocaso Festival in Costa Rica, Space Miami, and multiple gigs across Miami Music Week. She has also rinsed the stages of ANTS at Ushuaia and Hi Ibiza, blowing away audiences with her jumping sound. The second half of the year promises even more excitement, with performances lined up at Drumcode in Croatia and Medellin, Kappa Futur in Italy, ARC in Chicago, Future Rave with David Guetta at Hi Ibiza, and the CRSSD Festival, to name a few.

Clickbait EP

Aside from curating some of the most electric sets, Gessler also thrives in music production. Her first EP, "

," was a collaboration with Toni Varga, another elrow family member. Her projects include an EP with Tolstoi and Andsan on Safe Music and a much-anticipated solo EP on the underground label, 303 Lovers and KER. Her Toolroom release “

” popped off at #1 on four different Beatport charts—round of applause, Ms. Gessler! Her unique sound combines house and techno with melodic elements, reflecting releases on labels including Desert Hearts, Kittball, Kaluki, Drumcode, Sola, and Circus Recordings.

What’s Up Desert Hearts Family,

This week we present to you our annual Family & Friends Compilation.

Volume 4 has track from homies from all over the world like Tini Gessler, Jesse Perez, Beth Lydi, and Alan Nieves; as well as a lot of our own homegrown talents like Kevin Anderson, Mitch Dodge, and Memo Rex. 

It’s incredibly rewarding for us to see what we’ve built reach into the far corners of the globe and be connected by the music we love.

We hope you enjoy Volume 4 of our Family & Friends Compilation as much as we enjoyed putting it together!

House, Techno, Love… We Are All Desert Hearts.
