Seeking to subvert any expectations the listener may have, Change of Heart takes a fearless approach to genre-bending. Your gracious host, Dara Genesis, is joined every month by guests from all different avenues of electronic music for limitless sonic exploration. With a bass-forward mindset, the show is ultimately open format and a love letter to the spirit of discovery found in the underground.

This month’s episode is guest hosted by Hearthealer.

Hearthealer (Los Angeles) is a DJ, producer, and writer known for narrative world-building, big emotion, and unruly genre blends. They’ve performed their high energy club sets internationally, in venues such as OIL (Shenzhen), Creamcake (Berlin), System (Shanghai), Final (Taipei), Cakeshop (Seoul), Loopy (Hangzhou), Orbitware (Bali), and more. NEMATOCYST, Hearthealer’s hybrid collaboration with dancer Jas Lin, has toured Asia/Europe and opened the 2024 3HD Festival in Berlin. On the ambient side, Hearthealer is known for their unique “storytelling sets,” where they use a midi controller to live-perform an original short story within a DJ set.

As a writer, Hearthealer has developed an original animated fantasy series with Netflix, publishes fantasy and erotic fiction under the pen name Olivia Angelcum, and is currently in development on a rave-based animated series with the studio behind Adventure Time and Castlevania.
