We are super happy to announce that we are joining forces with @melt.dtla + @lamrbl this Saturday, bringing the Beacon of Light Chill Out Room to an already stacked night featuring:
@dannydaze@jamie.jar@highkin_mrbl b2b @enjoythebassline
Side quest your way to our sanctuary, where Basement LA’s @me.djkerry - Agora’s @trey_braheem and BxL’s @tottie_lottiee will lead a sensory journey designed to be experienced lying down 🫠
Reset that chill, feed your senses, and find your center in the middle of the dancefloor.
Feb’s chill out room in pics and vids here 💖
Tickets available via RA 🎟️
A few weeks ago I sat down with Tavish for Ransom Note and ended up speaking about things I don’t always know how to explain clearly in short form: the ambient machine I’ve been building, why I’m sometimes hesitant to box music into genres, and how Alchemy of Being came from a period where words weren’t enough.
A lot of this record was born from learning how to process emotion non-verbally. Sitting with instruments, improvising, and letting sound hold things I couldn’t articulate yet.
We also spoke about something that feels deeply connected to this album: my love for chill-out culture and my growing desire to reimagine those spaces through Beacon of Light, not as an escape from nightlife, but as spaces for rest, integration, and softness within it.
Grateful to Tavish for the thoughtful conversation and to Ransom Note for creating space for artists to speak beyond surface-level promo.
Carpet Session @ Agora Records, Friday 02/13 7-11pm
We’re excited to curate the next installment of Beacon of Light as we continue our soft ascending — this time taking over @agora.dtla upstairs mezzanine.
Carpeted, cozy, and made for listening.
No rush, no stage energy. Just a good room with good sound and good people.

A quick introduction to the sound at @shopmistergreen
Beacon of Light is stepping into Mr. Green’s house sound system, a boutique listening space built around vintage Altec Lansing speakers, including Model 19s, A2s, and A5s. These horn-loaded designs were originally made for cinemas, known for their efficiency, strong midrange, and warm, full sound without needing to be pushed.
The system is complemented by JBL Aquarius 4 speakers, helping distribute sound evenly throughout the shop.
Come Friday and hear these beauties purr. 5-9pm
🕯️Beacon of Light is a new chill-out venture exploring the quieter side of musical gatherings — the moments between movement, where connection has room to grow.
We’re opening it for the first time with a soft launch on 01/16, from 5–9pm, @shopmistergreen Silverlake.
