MIDNIGHT MASS - A NEW HARD TECHNO PARTY IN LOS ANGELES
SUBMISSION FOR SOMEFUND

The Story So Far
I've spent the last decade producing dance music and touring the world, playing shows from Tokyo to new York. Over the past 2 years I've transitioned my sound and focus to immerse myself in the world of techno and new rave sounds. This new direction has garnered widespread support from both artists and fans, alike, spurning a national self-booked tour in the summer of 2023. Unorthodox venues - from playing under an atlanta freeway, to the San Diego sewers - cemented the idea of returning to the original DIY spirit of dance music culture. Through a series of viral videos on short form content platforms, visibility for the project increased exponentially while bridging the gap between old and new fans of authentic rave music and experiences. This new exciting take on techno and journey into the rapidly expanding culture of renegades and rave culture continues to expand in scope, and as such, needs a new anchor point - A new party that caters specifically to this sound and continues to push the culture forward.
