Midnight Lovers w/ Demi Riquisimo All Night Long

Midnight Lovers is a late-night party built around one DJ and one long set. On Saturday, Nov 28, Demi Riquisimo takes it over for an "All Night Long" format, with the listing tagging the sound as acid, italo disco and house. If you keep a list of raves in Los Angeles worth staying up for, a single-DJ marathon like this is the kind of night that earns a spot on it.

When: Saturday, Nov 28, 11:59 PM to 5:00 AM (Sunday, Nov 29) Where: TBA, DTLA / Los Angeles Tickets: $27.10-43.35 on Resident Advisor

What to expect

The three genres on the bill fit together well. Acid brings the squelchy, rolling basslines of the 303 era. Italo disco adds the glossy synths and drum machines that came out of Italy in the early 1980s. House holds it together with a steady four-on-the-floor pulse. An all night set gives a DJ room to move between them slowly instead of jumping from peak to peak, so expect a long build rather than a short sprint.

The listing does not name a supporting cast, so treat this as a night about one selector and the room she or he builds over roughly five hours. The advertised start of 11:59 PM is the time as listed. Doors and the real first track may land later, so check the Resident Advisor page before you head out.

The venue is still a secret

The venue is listed only as TBA, with no street address published yet. Plenty of downtown parties hold back their location until closer to the date, and ticket holders usually get the details by email or through the promoter. Until then, all we can confirm is that it is in the DTLA area. We will not guess an address, so watch the ticket page for an update.

Planning your night

Tickets run $27.10 to $43.35, which most likely reflects release tiers, though the listing does not say. Buy through the Resident Advisor event page and not from a reseller. A 5:00 AM finish means rideshare is the safest way home, and it is worth lining up a ride before the last set instead of competing with everyone else at closing time. Bring ID, wear shoes you can dance in for five hours, and eat beforehand.

If you are building a plan for the weekend, this is one of the stronger LA events this weekend for people who prefer a long, patient dance floor to a festival-sized crowd. For more of EDM in Los Angeles, browse the full EDM category, and see what else is on in downtown Los Angeles.
