Celebrate Hot Mass's seventh anniversary with two nights of music

MISC Records, a four-year-old Pittsburgh-based label, is thanking the city for its continued support with a show featuring Deejay Aesthetics, the co-creator and co-resident of Junction; MISC's own Ondo / Gusto; Neem, Hot Mass resident DJ; and Clark Price, co-founder of Honcho.

"[The] show is all about celebrating the diverse talent that exists in our own back yard and just coming together to appreciate all the amazing people/music who make up this Pittsburgh electronic scene," says Juan-Augusto Lafontaine, founder of MISC Records. "I like to picture that sort of feeling you get at a friend's house party. No big names, just people you know and see around the neighborhood and good times."

Next year, MISC plans to step up its event productions. (Before Local Sesh, the last event the label held was in March 2018.) Events are expected to happen sporadically throughout the year and in different locations depending on the type of show it is.

"But it definitely won't just be DJing events," says  Lafontaine. "The idea will be to keep people on their toes. Outside of that, we're gonna keep on putting out music and possibly even a record by the end of 2020."
