LA Riots are (metaphorically speaking) burning L.A. down!
LA Riots is a recent formation of two well striped DJ/producers. One is Daniel LeDisko, who is known for his years of residencies at Hollywood’s 82, Moscow, and Le Disko. The other is Jo’B, who formerly DJ’d many-a jungle parties and raves under the name Orion and concurrently produces, the indie pop group Edison Gem.
With LA Riots, the sound is made for electro dance parties. Their stuttering vocal edits and four on the floor basslines are done with finesse and we all notice. Some of the right people certainly noticed the early unofficial remix of Justice with Uffie and recently have been busy doing commissioned remix work for EDM artists Ocelot, Hatiras, indie rock artists Scanners and Mystery Jets, d’n'b heavyweight Photek, pop superstars The Cure, and funky favorites Chromeo.
Nice resume for a band that is nearly fresh out of the gate, eh? Listen and learn:

LA and OC heads can check out LA Riots this weekend at a new little multi-genre dance music club in Santa Ana called Trust. I’m favoring this place because I dig that they play breakbeat, garage and other sub-genres in with the electro, because it can’t all be electro/ electro/ electro all the time.
SF heads can see LA Riots play with us at Blow Up on Aug. 31st.
Errybody else sit tight and LA Riots will slowly glaze themselves across the earth. Keep checking LA Riots on MySpace for tour dates.
Lastly, check LA Riots in our archive.

remixes are more like edits… edits with re-trigger
@ ++++++:
True particularly for the Justice remixes, because those two are bootleg diy remixes, probably cut from the finished track and not from the multitrack files.
Edits keep the party people going just the same.
thanks for the love missingtoof.
and yes.. the justice ones are bootlegs which is why we always include the ‘bootleg’ tag. everything else we do we get from the labels so we have the actual parts. cool thing about the justice stuff is we thought ed banger would end up hating us but actually it’s the exact opposite. john ran into busy p on sunday night and he said the party remix we did was amazing and i saw uffie last night and she commented that she really likes our version too. edits/remixes are cool if they’re done right..
The Exclusive!!
big ups to missingtoof for the love
You can catch LA RIOTS at the San Diego Street Scene festival @ Coors Ampitheater in Sept alongside Crystal Method and Rabbit in the Moon and here these remixes on a big system, you will hear the quality!
…also performing at the SD Street Scene are Panic at the Disco, Muse, The Killers, Simian Mobile Disco, and motherfucking T.I. :p
nice one guys.
I heard the bootleg of “The Party” in Houston last week. Of all the tracks played by the DJ it just stood out like no other. It was the only track I had to get the name of. These two are going places at light speed. They need to drop by TX and tour Dallas, Houston, Austin and San Antonio. Genius pure Genius…Keep it up!
They aklwaya put out greta tracks like the bnafide loving remix was sick and one of my favorite tracks is still the countdown remix
LA Riots- saw you in Seattle and I thought that you were the bomb. I am originally from France and I soooo dug the ‘A cause des garcons’ Remix!!!!!!!!!ALSO you looked very hot on stage. The black jacket and cap was a really hot look on you…VERY SEXY GUY!!!
