Los Angeles’ underground vinyl‑driven house music scene is thriving with authenticity, passion, and artistry. Real records, curated selectors, and community vibes define this movement — from Sunday Sessions’ weekly grooves to late‑night journeys like Midnight Lovers, with Dialogue bringing its own curated ambience to the mix.

Sunday Sessions: A Vinyl‑Only Celebration

Sunday Sessions LA is the heartbeat of Los Angeles’ vinyl house culture — a weekly celebration rooted in vinyl‑only DJ sets that blend deep house, minimal grooves, and soulful vibes. DJs and selectors spin records that are felt as much as they are heard, creating a shared experience of sound and movement under the open skies or in intimate indoor spaces.

Whether at open‑air gatherings in DTLA or iconic basement spots, Sunday Sessions draws a crowd of passionate house lovers, collectors, and dancers — all united by the warmth and richness of wax.

Dialogue: Curated Conversations Through Sound

(If you have high‑resolution Dialogue event photos, insert them here — crowd shots, DJ booth moments, or ambient snapshots work great.)

Dialogue LA is where music feels like a conversation: selectors craft sets that speak to rhythm, emotion, and experience. Though imagery might vary, the energy remains unmistakable — a blend of curated tracks, thoughtful pacing, and the kind of musical interplay underground house heads live for.

Midnight Lovers: Intimate, Deep & Vinyl‑Driven

Midnight Lovers is one of LA’s most beloved late‑night house events — intimate, deeply felt, and rooted in curated selections that move beyond the mainstream. The vibes are warm and engaging, with vinyl at the source of much of the sonic exploration.

From New Year’s Eve sets to monthly gatherings that spotlight both local and international selectors, Midnight Lovers marries an immersive atmosphere with the genuine energy of LA’s house community.
