This past weekend, Innervisions, a house music record label, threw an event in Pershing Square in Downtown Los Angeles. The show started with Eagles & Butterflies, an up and coming DJ who just joined the record company. He started his set at 4pm and no one was really at the event yet.
By the time Trikk came on, a bigger DJ with the label, a few more people had arrived. I really enjoyed this set as it incorporated tribal and deep tech house. Some of my favorite stuff. Trikk is a really great DJ and he is well respected within the Innervisions community. It was really great to see him as he represents DJs of minority since he is from India. Loved his stuff.
Finally, what everyone came for, to see Dixon and Ame’s four hour back to back set. All of my friends had arrived at this point and it was really great to have everyone together. The crowd was super packed now as it became more difficult to move around. Their set was amazing. BEst set I have ever seen live. But this was no surprise to me. Dixon and Ame are some of the most respected and talented DJs in the house industry. And for them to be playing back to back for 4 whole hours was amazing. Their entire set was s build up, just as each song has a build up. It was like going on a journey. At some point, it also started to drizzle and rain for a while which would sound like a burden, but really, it made the show better. It felt magical and it completely removed me from the real world.
Going to this show was something amazing and I was waiting for it for months. I’m really sad that it is over now, but I will for sure be following Dixon and Ame around the world for the next year. Something I really enjoy about these shows is not only the music, but the people I meet. House shows are always filled with the most interesting people and this one was no different. I met a bunch of different people from places all over the world and I was in my element. I hope to go to another show soon. Really loved it.
If you have the opportunity to see any of the Innervision DJs, especially Dixon or Ame, I highly recommend it and recommend finding tickets early. It’s totally worth it.
