On October 16 at Ace Mission Studios, a sold-out Los Angeles crowd gathered for the release of Sara Landry’s second album “Divine Intervention” on her own label HEKATE. She still had a few minutes left, so she reached for her friend Alt8’s edit of “Sweet Nothing,” climbed onto Landry mixed the 14-track record herself, tested the songs in secret as unannounced IDs, and kept the masters. Fully independent, she says the album largely decided its own shape — a progression through hard bounce, psytechno, and psytrance that starts in one place and ends in another.
That same sense of connection runs through how she talks about the music. “My relationship with the divine is very strong,” she said. Fans leaving the room reached for the same language: church, something that lifts you up.
Los Angeles has been part of the story since her first show outside Texas in 2021. Latino fans have long shown up in force for her sets. Her own roots reach into Mexico City through her grandmother, and she keeps a folder of Latin techno tracks ready for the right moment.

“The feeling of unity that you get when everybody is tuned into the same sort of energy source,” Sara Landry says. “I don’t think it’s unlike religious transcendence at all. I think it’s two sides of the same coin.”

LA’s speed cameras are live. On Monday, Oct. 26, the city switched on the first 26 of 125 camera corridors, and the rest are set to go up by the end of the year.
We mapped every monitored stretch of road, with live cameras in red and the ones coming soon in purple. It’s free, Google Maps on your phone or computer in about a minute.
For now they only send warnings. After each camera’s 60-day grace period, going 11+ mph over the limit will cost you $50 to $500, mailed to the car’s registered owner. Be sure to always drive safe and within the speed limit.

Ten years of filth, horror and glamour, and the Boulet Brothers are still raising hell. Before “The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula” became a global phenomenon, Dracmorda and Swanthula Boulet built their following in Los Angeles’ underground queer nightlife scene, launching a eant at the now-defunct Faultline leather bar in Silver Lake.
Now, with Season 7 premiering Oct. 27 on Shudder and AMC+, the Emmy-nominated horror hosts are celebrating a decade of exterminations and gloriously twisted television. The new season channels the grainy VHS aesthetic of ’80s horror, with campground massacres, Troma-inspired challenges and a soundtrack featuring Sisters of Mercy, Siouxsie and the Banshees and Ministry.
And their legendary LA Halloween Ball returns for its 26th year, still built on that same DIY spirit that once turned egg beaters and fans into animatronics overnight. With Poppy headlining, it’ll be killer — all proving the Boulet Brothers have no plans to rest in peace.
