Information: Agonis (LA Debut) + Slip

This one is for all the marathon dancers out there... We're very excited to welcome Agonis (Amenthia Recordings, Switzerland) making his LA debut for a special early morning gathering starting Sunday from 5am-11am. We'll be bringing our sound system into DTLA staple, Nothing Usual, to keep the parties rolling from Saturday into Sunday. Door tickets will be available for $15 ✺✺✺✺✺✺ Agonis derives from the greek agon, which refers to an “assembly, a mass of people brought together” and the verb agein, “to put in motion, move”. A molecule that activates a receptor to produce a biological response, a muscle that contracts, a gathering that moves. Raised with the sounds of Detroit techno and UK breaks & dubstep, the co-founder of Amenthia Recordings has carved out a signature sound that fuses vintage feels with the crystalline sounds of a speculative future’s past. EPs and tracks released on Midgar, Smoke Machine, Kynant, his native Amenthia, and her Basel-based sister label A Walking Contradiction showcase exquisite rhythm experiments that range from bitter-sweet ambient to UK-infused breaks to niche 4x4 bangers. Perfected over years of performing live from Turtle Island’s West Coast to the Eastern edge of the Eurocentric world map and the territories now referred to as Australia, his sonic alchemy culminated in his first album Neutropia. Perception has evolved through an excess of stimuli, and that excess is now our greatest asset. ✺✺✺✺✺✺ RULES — * No photos or phone
