Oct 10 Sirens x DX3: Man Power @ Los Angeles, CA

@manpowermusic (Me Me Me / Correspondant, UK)
@sonns___ & @sidroamsbravo

@dete.soleil

Sirens x DX3 return for another collaboration, bringing Man Power for a night that answers to no one but him.

Man Power is a producer and DJ from the North East of England, more than a decade deep into a career built on the trust of a scene that doesn’t hand that out easily. Labels like DFA, Rekids, and Hivern Discs put his records out because they know he doesn’t play safe, and neither does his DJing, and his recent run of collaborations with Juan Maclean under the name Juan Power only sharpens that reputation further. Every set he plays is assembled in the moment, pulled from a mind that jumps between disco, Italo, house, and techno without warning, which means what happens on the night only happens once. There’s no replaying it, no catching the same set twice. That’s the reason people who’ve followed him for years still show up early and stay to the end, and why a room that trusts him goes all in the second he steps behind the decks.

Man Power is joined by a lineup built to match him: SONNS b2b Tavish DJ, Capes, and D’ETE.

Tickets on RA. Link in bio.

for CAPES, DJing is an exchange - between the artist, the dance floor and everything happening beneath the surface of Los Angeles.

Surface DIY is a direct response to a rave scene that priced out the people who built it.

What was once about the music and its community has quietly been replaced by overpriced tickets, marked up drinks, and a social media performance that mistakes visibility for culture.

No political agenda. No PR machine. No profit motive hiding behind a flyer. We exist to create an experience, to find new friends, to build memories, and to hold space for the kind of night that represents the same people leading it.

We pull from local LA talent; not as a tool to move tickets, not as a warm body to fill an early slot, but because our city has DJs who have earned the primetime and deserve to stand in it.

We give them that stage because the music demands it and the culture requires it; and twice a month, we’re doing something about it…steadily moving the needle forward, and giving back the people the power to rave.

We return TONIGHT for our third party in the series. Tap in and become ~part of the revolution~🌪️

*Surface is us, therefore we must*

NOCTURNA
04.19
Los Angeles

This time we are inviting a special guest Capes (Ray Barragan).

A key figure in the Los Angeles electronic music scene and one half of Club Tularosa, his sound has long expanded beyond the city that shaped him. His music lives in the global underground, leaving a feeling that lingers long after the last track fades.

In his sets, Capes works with rare precision, transforming space into something more than just a room with sound. Each performance is a state you step into.

As the founder of Sensory Signal, he creates environments where innovation meets community, a space for those drawn to forward thinking sound.

Nocturna is more than a party. It is an audiovisual experience where sound and light merge into one, creating a space beyond ordinary perception.
