Ouija Entertainment | Tickets | Event Info

Hey friends! CAD4.0. MDA team-up. Life is good.

And it just got better. We’re excited to finally release news of our partnership with Ouija Entertainment. The first fruit of this comes Thursday [11.13]. Penguin Prison, SNBRN, AfroWhitey, and KidB are our musical stars. Absolut and Avion: our libations [come early and check the open bar from 9-10!]

Penguin Prison sets are always something special. The added touch of live vocals over his indie-pop originals have quite the effect. And then there’s introduction to his influences by way of DJ set. Think sunset-house and disco vibes. Add SNBRN to the mix – his recent Dirty South remix was emotional, to say the least – and we’re looking at quite a feel-good party. Our favourite kind of party. Win some tickets and come add to the mood!

Hot Since 82 • Preorder Knee Deep In Sound • TICKETS

Inception Saturdays has been on a roll as of late. They continue their hot streak by bringing in the power house that is Daley Padley AKA Hot Since 82. I was looking up his story, and his inception is a funny one. I guess he was DJing an afterparty in Ibiza in 2010 when the sound cut out, so he plugged in his iPod. An unreleased track he was working on came up and the crowd’s response was resounding. He ended up sending that track to Noir Records, and his booming career in the deep house scene began. Pretty cool how things work out, huh? 4 years later, he’s going to be running one of the best house clubs in LA! Check out to win the tickets after the jump.

But have I the chance to take an Uber over to an awesome bar with even better music, you can bet your sweet ass I’ll take it. MDA has an awesome forward thinking lineup, and the Wayfarer is a newly renovated venue in Costa Mesa (formerly Detroit Bar). Come hang out, and scope how you can win below. <3

RÜFÜS DU SOL | Soundcloud | Buy Atlas | TICKETS

Earlier this year, we had the fortunate pleasure of catching Australia’s RÜFÜS DU SOL at one of their free pop up shows at SXSW. (If you don’t know how the music “festival” SXSW works, direct yourself here.) These electronic wonder-kids made our list of top upcoming acts of 2014 to watch for, and for good reason. Take a bit of Cut Copy, a dash of Jagwar Ma, and a smidge of Classixx and you got yourself a nice RÜFÜS fondue.

These guys are as groovy as they come. Backed by live vocals and a full band, they’re an unmissable act to catch. Lucky for us they have Hermitude opening up, and where better than the Fonda in Hollywood? Check below for your chance to win a couple tickets and after the jump for some tunes. <3

Pacific Festival | Tickets

Next weekend – August 16th – marks the return of Pacific Festival. Hosted inside the Back Bay Dunes of Newport Beach, this festival is a single day of ‘hip’ culture and sound that signifies summer in Southern California. Indie dance pop, sunshine tinged electronics, craft brews, and culinary skill on wheels are brought together to provide you with a day’s respite. There will be returning summer staples with new material (Poolside, Bag Raiders, Miami Horror[LIVE!]) as well as more acts that have been making quite a name for themselves (De Lux, Painted Palms, Cherry Glazerr, among many others).

Don’t think we forgot special guests and in-house favourite Holy Ghost! who are, arguably, at the helm of the post-punk, indie-dance scene. We’ve seen them quite a few times and have yet to be disappointed. Every one of their sets is packed with synth-heavy, melodic, and utterly cool vibes that we wish never end. They’re undoubtedly one of our favorite acts to see live and they’re coming to our home town! More details and contest below!!

Take 2 Entertainment | Tickets

It was seemingly yesterday that we celebrated USA…and now we’re already upon Christmas. Or so it would seem. There might not be snow falling from the sky (like there ever is in Long Beach anyway), but that doesn’t mean you can’t break out your Santa hats for another round of themed triple-decker boat fun and sunset sprays this coming July 26th.

The jolly tunes this time will be provided by Summertime staple Viceroy, the always lovely Jessie Andrews, GDD residents Bones and Troy Kurtz, Wilks and more primo talent we’ve seen making waves in the LA scene. One special addition (it’s quite a present indeed) to this installment is the after party aboard the Queen Mary. From past experience, nobody is quite ready for the night to end once docked. This time around there won’t be silly drivers doing silly things. Stay afloat awhile longer with tunes curated by our friends in GDD, Take2En, and a Super Duper Secret Special Guest. Still can’t muster the courage to take to the streets? Hang out for the sleepover; just call 877.342.0742 for rooms!
