Los Angeles, I can confidently say that this Saturday marks one of the best dance music events to ever happen in this city. Crosstown Rebels, the lauded label run by the mysteriously interesting Damian Lazarus, and Flaunt Magazine are bringing the infamous Get Lost party to the West Coast after multiple successful and wildly hedonistic events during WMC in Miami in years past. With some of the biggest names in the global underground scene, Get Lost LA should be a bequest of auditory knowledge to all electronic music enthusiasts in this city. Find all necessary info below and make sure to read after the jump to see what Los Angeles’ trio, Droog, have to say about Get Lost, the Culprit label, and how Jamie Jones and Lee Foss helped them be where they’re at now.

Don’t put away those bikinis or beach towels quite yet, there is one last Culprit Sessions party at the Standard Hotel rooftop in downtown Los Angeles this Sunday with Boston’s Soul Clap headlining the day. It’s going to be an afternoon and evening filled with deep, groovy vibes and pretty, party people, and I have TWO PAIRS of tickets to give away to you LA folk. The first two people to email me at JONAH@GOTTADANCEDIRTY.COM will win. Quick draw!
Avaland will be celebrating its 6th birthday this Saturday at the Avalon in Hollywood, and they have been kind enough to give away a pair to 2 of you dirty dancers. Legendary Chicago DJ Felix da Housecat will be headlining the event, along with Avaland resident DJs Droog, Cameron van Peebles, Steve Prior, and The Music Savages.
Anyone in the mood for a pool party this Sunday? The folks over at Culprit are throwing another one of their notorious soirees at the Standard Hotel in downtown Los Angeles, and they have been kind enough to give away two pairs of tickets to the event. If you’d like to get down to some mesmerizing minimal and turbulent tech-house, shoot me an email at JONAH@GOTTADANCEDIRTY.COM and two of you will each get your name +1 on the guestlist.
