Listen and do as the Reverend Mother tells you...
For our second event of the season, we are happy to bring you the trifecta of Mesmé (Steel City Dance Discs), Perfect Lovers (Por Detroit, Muy Muy) and Dj Kerry (Basement, LA). Dust of your dancing shoes...
Mesmé:
Hiding somewhere beneath the shadows and neon lights of Angel City is the elusive protagonist, Mesmé. A lover of the gramophone, dusty books, rare art, and intricate musical machines, little else is known about our young heroine other than her vast collection of records and her affiliation with several high-profile underground organizations. Restless Nites and Into The Woods both call her one of their own, and rumor has it that she runs a secret collective known only by the code name, MISFIT. Sightings include a selection of the city’s record stores, libraries, and speakeasies, and she has reportedly been seen entering and leaving pitch-black warehouses late at night with a large, black leather suitcase. Little is known about her origins, but word has it that she escaped a religious coven and sought refuge in an unknown Asian state, before finding her true home in the dazzling metropolis of Angel City.

Perfect Lovers:
Dj and producer originally from Vancouver, Canada, Perfect Lovers developed his musical sound in the colourful scenes of Argentina and Paraguay. After a 6 years stint in South America, he relocated to Mexico City where he co-founded the legendary party collective Por Detroit, a politically and socially charged party that is equally known for its musical curation as it is for their unconventional spaces, from abandoned wheat and ice factories, rooftop warehouses, to old prisons in the heart of the city. Perfect Lovers sound is heavily influenced by Latin American sub-cultures, 60s garage rock and the stranger musings of 80's film soundtracks, all streamlined into a acid house soundscape.

DJ Kerry:
DJ Kerry began her musical beginnings with the piano at the tender age of 8. By the age of 12, Kerry was making her own mix tapes through the influences of Michael Jackson, SOS Band, & Loose Ends to name a few. Her musical taste has since expanded over the years and enjoys everything from Disco, Nu-Disco, to House and everything in-between. Many of her DJ influences come from DJs such as DJ Harvey, Greg Wilson and David Mancuso to name a few.

For the past 15 years, DJ Kerry has made a name for herself in the underground scene of Los Angeles by throwing successful parties, such as Nitty Gritty, Rice & Beats, Hang Together and most recently, The Basement, an intimate underground affair that has been considered a quite a gem in the LA music community.
DJ Kerry continues to share her passion for music and plays regularly throughout Los Angeles.
