SEXTRANCE Rave at Church of Fun LA

Blogpost about attending a rave in LA hosted by dismissyourself. Seeing some of my favorite acts and a wicked cool night with Tess.

I bought tickets for the Sextrance 3D Rave at the Church of fun some weeks prior, Tess and I had worked ourselves into a fever pitch with excitement. We would be seeing a huge line up from the collective Dismiss Yourself. You can find their website at the following link: here. Dismiss yourself is a music collective curating some of the most aggressive and experimental electronic music out right now. The roster for this evening included Purity Filter, Sienna Sleep, Exodius, to name a few.

I got off work a little early and headed over to our apartment where Tess was already decked out in her Rave wear. She was wearing a Neon Iridescent Bikini Top, made out of that hyperreflective material that reflects light all crazy and atop of that a BDSM Harness that I had got for her. Her make up was crazy and she had what must have been a half a bottle of glitter on her face, making her look like a cybernetic goddess. I opted to contrast her look by dressing in all black and wearing my Machine Girl Hoody. I looked like a Ninja, while she looked like an LSD Princess. She was towering around in her Pink heels spraying fixative on her make up when I walked into our Apartment.

We got together a little Rave Go Bag Together. In it was our supplies for the rave. Elixirs and concoctions. Potions and the like. Neon liquids in little bottles for our consumption. We had plenty of Gummys, some candy, Soda and Soft Drinks, plus a couple shots of Vodka. Extra Clothes and some party favors.

The night swallowed us whole as we raced up to Los Angeles. The Skyline over took us as the lights of the Sky Scrapers towered over us. We got to the church of fun and the show was already underway. We showed our reservations and got into the main dance hall.

The Projector had us in a first person shooter of some kind, while the trance music pounded our chest hollow. We let the elixir over take us as we began to move to the pounding electronic grooves drill harder and harder into the night. The lights and music a swirl of beauty entering your Soni spherical body one set after another.

As Tess and I walked through the grand doors of the Church of Fun, a wave of excitement washed over us. The once holy sanctuary had been transformed into a pulsating techno paradise, with glowing neon lights illuminating the altar and the sound of thumping beats filling the air.

We made our way through the crowd, taking in the sights and sounds of the rave. The walls were adorned with holographic projections of swirling first person shooter graphics, while the walls were lined with LED lights that pulsed in time with the music. We could see cyberpunk-clad ravers dancing wildly, their bodies a blur of motion as they lost themselves in the rhythm.

As we reached the dance floor, Tess and I couldn't resist the pull of the music any longer. We let ourselves get swept up in the energy of the crowd, our bodies moving in a frenetic glitch set to the beat. The music was like a drug, coursing through our veins and igniting every fiber of our being.

With every passing moment, the techno symphony grew more and more intense, the lights and visuals becoming more and more mesmerizing. As the night wore on, Tess and I were lost in a techno trance, lost in the beauty of the moment.

As the sets died down so did we. We got out of there a hot and sweaty mess. Tess' make up was runny and she looked like she had been ravaged by a technological beast and yet still as gorgeous as ever. We wound down the night at astro burgers. Catching our breath over some burgers and fries. We ate inside the neon lit chromed out diner, the paper wrapped around our burgers crinkling while we ravenously ate, covered in sweat and joking about. We finished up and drove home to have a few drinks watch a movie and pass out.
