Detroit techno at its dirtiest

We were lucky enough to discover Jimmy Edgar back in 2008, thanks to our hometown party luminaries DROID BEHAVIOR. It was 2am on the 2nd floor of a crumbling warehouse in downtown Los Angeles, in a suffocated room of about 75 sweaty, frenzied future-music enthusiasts. The scene was a perfect complement to the exquisite sounds […]

LA-crafted techno this Saturday night

Today’s stale pseudo-celebutard Hollywood clubs and inpersonal massive corporate candy raves leave the sophisticated Angeleno music lover, like myself, yearning for a simpler time — aka the 90s.  The warehouses were plentiful, the drugs were clean, the soundsystems went 8am strong and the energy was lucid and pure. And what there wasn’t was just as […]
