Yung Bae, Paulina Shafir, Owen Jackson at ORIGIN LA

Yung Bae is the producer who turned vintage funk, disco and city pop into a whole sound, and on Friday, October 23 he brings it to ORIGIN in Downtown Los Angeles. Paulina Shafir and Owen Jackson share the bill. If you're sketching out EDM in Los Angeles for the last week of October, this is a strong candidate.

When: Friday, October 23, 2026, 10:00 PM to 2:00 AM Where: 613 Imperial St, Los Angeles, CA 90021 Tickets: $29.48-88.43 on Eventbrite Genres: Funk, disco, future funk

What to expect

Future funk takes old grooves, slows them down, polishes them and adds a heavy dose of nostalgia. Yung Bae is one of its best-known names, and the event page promises disco, funk and city pop. That makes this a dance night built around melody and bounce rather than a wall of bass, a good fit for people who want to move without being flattened.

Paulina Shafir and Owen Jackson fill out the lineup. Neither set time has been published, so plan to arrive early enough to catch the openers and settle into the room before the headliner. The flyer lists the night as 10 PM to 2 AM, a tidy four hours.

The venue and the crowd

The address is 613 Imperial Street, on the industrial east side of Downtown LA near the Arts District. Warehouse-style spaces in this part of town tend to suit a night like this: big sound, plenty of floor and a crowd that came for the music. ORIGIN is the promoter behind the night, and the poster carries its name and the 613/617 Imperial Street address.

Ticket prices run from $29.48 to $88.43, which likely reflects different tiers, so check the Eventbrite page to see what each level includes. Prices at this range can climb as dates get closer.

Planning your night

Parking around Imperial Street can be tight on a busy Friday, so a rideshare or a lot a few blocks away is the easier call. Bring ID, charge your phone and plan the ride home before you go. Late-night Downtown streets are fine with a little planning.
