Mood$Wingz: Welcome To The Other Side

If you're building a list of EDM in Los Angeles for the last weekend of October, Santa Ana belongs on it. On Saturday, Oct 24, Mood$Wingz takes over La Santa Nightclub for Welcome To The Other Side, a night that leans hard into bass, hard techno and trap. It runs on the Orange County side of the freeway map, but it is close enough to count for anyone in the greater LA scrum.

When: Saturday, Oct 24, 8:30 PM to 1:45 AM Where: La Santa Nightclub, Santa Ana Price: $20 before 10 (per the listing) Tickets: Posh

What to expect

The listing tags the night with dubstep, bass music, hard techno, hard dance, house and trap. That is a wide lane, and it suggests a room that moves between heavy half-time drops and fast four-on-the-floor pressure rather than sticking to one tempo. The poster is a red and black, cyberpunk-flavored design with a giant eye over the date and a deep supporting lineup. Names on it include 2CEEZ, AV8, BBYBNZO, Delta T, Elysium, GOINGUP, HMEWRWK., OMS, Polano and RELM, with Mood$Wingz at the center.

The event is also billed with a Halloween angle on its ticket page, so expect some people to show up in costume. Whether you dress up or not, wear shoes you can stand in for five hours.

Planning your night

The window is long: doors-to-close covers roughly five hours and fifteen minutes, so you can arrive for the early sets and still catch the headliner. The advertised price is $20 before 10, which most likely means a cheaper entry if you get in early. Check the Posh page for the current tier before you go, since the price can step up later in the night.

La Santa is in Santa Ana, so plan your ride. From most of LA that means a drive down the 5 or the 405, and a rideshare home is smarter than driving after a late set. The venue address is not on the listing, so confirm it on the ticket page.

Among the raves in Los Angeles and Orange County this month, this one is a good pick if you want bass and hard dance in the same room for a modest cover. If you're sorting through things to do in Los Angeles this fall, browse more nights on the EDM events page and the neighborhood guides.

Always verify the lineup, age limit and set times with the organizer before heading out, because club schedules shift.
