REGGAETONLANDIA

PARTY PROMOTERS

Reggaeton music may have roots in the tropics, but it has inspired the hottest party in downtown L.A.: ReggaetonLandia. Hosted by Dominican MC Rickstarr and mixed by Ecuadorian Colombian DJ 2Deep — a recent sign to Steve Aoki's label Dim Mak En Fuego — this club night has become a destination for scenesters looking to break a sweat to the latest Bad Bunny hits and energizing fusions of Latin trap, dembow and house. ReggaetonLandia is also the name of the collective, which aims to put on its own festival one day. “Our goal is to create a unique space within the event industry by genre-bending EDM and reggaeton,” says creative director Leslie Fuentes. Recent guests include Jhay Cortez and De La Ghetto; the buzzy D.R. rapper Tokischa headlined at the Novo in late October.
