I’m back at Underground on Friday, August 7 with Larry G. This week, it’s Gorillaz x Daft Punk night and both floors of Grand Star Jazz Club will be open. We’ll be playing our favorite tracks from both Gorillaz and Daft Punk alongside a mix of indie dance, post-punk, synthpop and more. Tickets are available now on Eventbrite.
Since I’m playing a darkwave and post-punk set at Underground x Shadowplay this Friday night and have Disco Matinee coming up on Sunday, I wanted to bring together all those styles in this month’s Beatique mix, which you can listen to now on Mixcloud or via the embed below.
Our first Disco Matinee in July was a success, so Jus’ B and I are heading back to Grand Star Jazz Club on Sunday, August 6 for another round. Joining us this time is guest DJ Televandalist, a longtime L.A. DJ who you may have seen play at parties like Perversion and Beat It. Check out his sets on Twitch or Mixcloud.
Blur has a new album, The Ballad of Darren, out and we’re celebrating at Club Underground on Friday, July 28. Join Larry G. and me, Liz O., at Grand Star Jazz Club in Chinatown for Underground’s Pulp x Blur night. Both floors of the club will be open. You’ll get your fill of Pulp and Blur, plus an assortment of indie and Britpop jams, downstairs. I’ll be upstairs playing a mix of post-punk, indie dance, new wave, darkwave, electro and synthpop jams.
Advance tickets are available now via Eventbrite for $8. Underground is a 21+ event and the party starts at 9:30 p.m. Can’t wait to see you on the dance floor!

I think about vinyl a lot. You might have already figured that out. I’ve written about my digs through the used bins. I’ve interviewed other collectors, as well as some of the people behind some of L.A.’s longtime recordstores. Plus, organizing my own stacks is a never-ending task that sometimes turns up old tunes that sound new and end up in the occasional all-vinyl DJ sets I play.
If you’re planning to dance your way through Fourth of July weekend, I have some options for you.
I’m back at Underground on Friday, June 30 and it’s my favorite theme, 2000s Nite! Dance with us to the indie jams of the 21st century, from White Stripes to Wet Leg. Tickets are available now online for $8 (they’re $15 at the door), so snap up yours ASAP on Eventbrite.
This week, Fifi Laroux (KSPC, Décadanse Soirée) and I are joining forces in the DJ booth. Find us at Bar Henry on Saturday, June 24, for Fire Night Dance. We’ve got our favorite disco jams and more on deck for you starting at 10 p.m. There’s no cover and it’s 21+.
Bar Henry is located at 1228 Sunset Blvd. in Echo Park. Can’t wait to see you on the dance floor.

Throughout June, One Colorado in Pasadena is hosting a series of free, Saturday evening concerts with Prism DJs in the opening slots. This Saturday, June 17, I’ll be warming up the crowd for Arcy Drive from 7 to 8 p.m. with a special indie dance mix. This is an all-ages event and should be a lot of fun. Hope to see you there.
One Colorado is located at 41 Hugus Alley, Pasadena 91103
I have just one gig this week, but it’s going to be a good one. Catch me on Friday, June 9 alongside Summer Rose and Crystal Heart at BLVD MRKT in Montebello for She Spins.
We’ll be playing vinyl from 7 – 10 p.m. while you dine and imbibe at the Montebello food hall. There’s no age limit, so bring the family and come hungry. The food (and drinks) are great here.
You’ll find BLVD MRKT at 520 Whittier Blvd. in Montebello.
This Friday, May 26, is The Cure Night at Underground. Both floors of Chinatown’s Grand Star Jazz Club will be open. Catch Larry G. on the ground floor and me, Liz O., upstairs.
