The best nights of your twenties were the ones you almost skipped. Someone sent you a name you did not recognise, the show started at ten on a work night, and you went anyway — and that is the one you still bring up.
Memphis LK came up through Melbourne's club scene, which has spent a decade quietly producing some of the most interesting electronic music nobody in America has caught up to yet. Her records sit between club weight and actual songwriting, which is a harder trick than it sounds and the reason Australian dancefloors claimed her early.
El Cid is a small Sunset Boulevard room with a stage built for flamenco in the 1920s, which gives a club night an odd, low-ceilinged intimacy — you are much closer to the booth than you expect to be.
Ten p.m., eighteen and over, on a Thursday. That is not an accident; that is the promoter filtering for the people who actually want to be there.
Thursday, November 19. El Cid, 4212 Sunset Boulevard. Presented by Minty Boi.
