Los Angeles’ underground promoter Minimal Effort just unveiled its Halloween Phase I lineup and it’s chock-a-block full of talent.

After three years at the forefront of the city’s house and techno scene, Minimal Effort are moving their Halloween and New Year’s Eve one-day parties to a new location, the LA Center Studios. On October 29th, the 5,000 capacity venue will feature the elaborate decor and meticulous curation the Minimal Effort team has become well known for, all against the backdrop of Los Angeles’ downtown skyline.

This year’s spooky celebration will feature none other than BBC Radio 1 legend Pete Tong, Suara boss Coyu, Jonas Rathsman, Mark Farina, Dosem, Edu Imbernon, Thugfucker, Tensnake, Steve Bug, a DJ set by Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs as well as live performances by Satory and Tiga, who will be debuting his new live show in LA on the night.

The complete Phase I lineup can be found below. Tickets will go on sale this Thursday, July 21st at 12PM at minimaleffort.net. Is it too early to plan Halloween in July? We don’t think so when the curators and lineup are this good!

Jonas Rathsman Launches ELEMENTS: Debut North American Tour

JonasRathsman

Three months ago, Jonas Rathsman debuted his ELEMENTS mix series featuring exclusive music from industry flag-bearers including Bicep, Booka Shade and Whitesquare just to name a few. Now, the Swedish producer and DJ is debuting a series of curated ELEMENTS events in North America, with a three-stop tour beginning on the 25th of February at Brooklyn’s Good Room.

With follow-up stops at StereoBar in Montreal and Primary in Chicago, Rathsman will curate a diverse line-up for each night, complementing each venue with an eclectic selection of artists and a few surprises along the way.

The tour will take place right after the third episode of ELEMENTS rolls out on February 8th, featuring new and unreleased music from Rathsman as well as other artists in the underground dance music circuit.

When asked about the tour, this is what the producer had to say, “I’m really excited to bring ELEMENTS on tour, and present some acts that I have been supporting in the mix series! I wanted to do these debut events in intimate spaces that have something unique about them, and I think these venues we have chosen will be the perfect setting to discover what ELEMENTS is really about.”
