Romancer is a born and bred Los Angeles DJ with his ear to the sheets. Inspired by themes of love, lust, and loss, he's unafraid to play where his heart takes him. With a history as a radio DJ that started in his bedroom as a teen, he has recently taken the leap into playing club nights and underground parties around the city. As part of the duo Starcrossed, he and DJ partner Gia, explore the possibilities of fun and friendship.
Mez: If you've spent any time going to parties (or livestreams) in Los Angeles over the past few years, you've probably seen the name Mez on a couple flyers. The up-and-coming DJ has quickly become a regular at some of the city's best-known parties, bringing a fresh but decidedly old-school vibe. He's a young selector who plays '90s house in a way that feels new and exciting and classic all at once—you can hear influences from the old guard in the smooth way he mixes and how long he lets the songs play out, but you can also imagine his excitement at hearing these old records for the first time and wanting to share them with everyone else. In the right hands, even the most obvious record can become new.
Alex Chapman is one of today’s most exciting DJs. A master of mixing pop nostalgia and the newest sounds, Chapman has played for some of the biggest names in music and fashion (Dior, Spotify, Bella Hadid and Cardi B to name a few), and just recently completed a US/European tour opening for superstar Kim Petras. With his new single "Horsey" (featuring Petras) coming out May 20th, it’s easy to see why publications like the New York Times, Billboard and Paper Magazine have highlighted this rising talent.
