Sacred Grounds

Sacred Grounds Sacred Grounds is one of L.A's longest running house events. Created in 1995 with the vision of bringing people of all walks of life together. House Music!

Sacred Grounds, a tribal gathering created in the spring of 1995 with the vision of bringing different genre’s of the house sounds together under one roof in a warehouse atmosphere. As Sacred Grounds has grown, the SG Parties have become a multicultural experience, attended by a diverse crowd spanning a wide range of ages, lifestyles, and backgrounds brought together by these unique organic gatherings. Sacred Grounds has been a staple in the L.A. underground house movement since 1995. It was originated by G-Dubbs aka Carlos, and Ruben Medellin. Brought to life by Lou, Raul, and the SG family. Working hard to keep the vibe as underground as possible we have found ourselves on a 20 year journey that would lead us to a vibe and concept that cannot be compared to any other. Starting out as a small one-off underground party to becoming one of Los Angeles premiere house events. We have steadily grown throughout the years with people attending from as far north as Alaska, and as far east as Japan. Having guest deejays from across the globe our sound is not to be categorized. From the deep soulful sounds of Tony Humphries to the more, funkier, stomping sounds of Derrick Carter we cater to all house enthusiast alike. Our roster has consisted of (in no particular order): Tony Humphries, Derrick Carter, Mark Farina, Doc Martin, Dj Sneak, Miguel 'Migs', Dj Heather, Marques Wyatt, Fred Everything, Gene Ferris, Greenskeepers, Julius Papp, Jeno, Garth, Markie, Diz, Mark Grant, Steve Loria, Dj Three, Dj Pierre, Dj Ali (Vancouver), J-Dub, The NYC Chocolate Factory Crew (Joeski, Onionz, Sameer, Frank Ryde), Dj Spinna (Brooklyn), Rich Medina (Philly), Tony Senghore (Sweeden), Raoul Bellmans (Swirl People, Belgium), Mark 'Blakkat' Bell (UK), Phil Weeks (France), Terry Francis (UK), Sonny Fodera (Australia), Hector Moralez (France), Mastiksoul (UK), Foolish Felix (UK), Slum Science (UK), Sunshine Jones, Nikola Baytala, Dj Mes, Ellen Ferrato, Tracy, Jason Hodges, Dj Mes, Woolfy, Little Chris, Juan Nunez, Tony Watson, Big Cee, Wally Callerio, CoCoe (abstrakt Workshop), Raiz (Droid), Drumcell (Droid), Pete Moss, Mauricio Aviles, Jonene, Lance De Sardi, Jt Donaldson, Miles Maeda, Dj Buck, Galen, Jamie Thinnes, Doran, Jason Blakemore, Vanyo, Aztek Sol, Xavier, Eli Star, Chris Flores, Brownie, Dj Fabian, Alison, Abraham Fabela, Djembe and last but not least the many local deejays in L.A. Our dream is simple. House moves us we don't move it. Be free and let the music take you on it's journey. We come in the name of Love, and all shall be good with harm to no one.

Twenty years ago, we gathered the tribe in a hidden art gallery somewhere in Downtown Los Angeles.

This was before social media. Before algorithms told us where to be. Before every moment was documented and uploaded for approval.

Back then, you had to know someone.

A phone number. A whispered conversation. A flyer slipped into your hand at a record shop. A chance encounter somewhere along Melrose, when it was still a cultural crossroads for dreamers, artists, dancers, and outcasts.

You’d make the call.

Get the address.

Arrive at a nondescript location and disappear down a dimly lit alleyway, guided only by the distant pulse of bass echoing through concrete walls. The closer you got, the louder it became, a heartbeat calling you home.

And once you stepped inside, everything changed.
A sea of bodies. Sweat on the walls. Smiles in every direction. More than a thousand house heads moving as one organism beneath the glow of moving lights and the weight of low-end frequencies.

That was the moment you knew.

You had arrived at another Sacred Grounds gathering.

Not a party.

A ritual.

A communion.

A temporary sanctuary built on rhythm, connection, and the shared pursuit of losing yourself completely on the dance floor.

Two rooms.

In one, Mushroom Jazz drifted through the air alongside eclectic funk, dusty breaks, and rare grooves that seemed unearthed from another dimension.

In the other, the main room pulsed with relentless four-on-the-floor energy delivered by the Sacred Grounds residents and special guests from afar.

And on this night, direct from Chicago, stood J-Dub and the man of the hour: Mark Farina.

At the height of his travels, playing clubs and festivals across the globe, yet somehow, Sacred Grounds always felt like home. Whenever Mark touched down in Los Angeles, you knew where you’d find him.

Right there with us.

In the underground.

Where the music mattered most.

Where strangers became family.

Where, for a few sacred hours, nothing existed beyond the next record.

We come in the name of Love, with harm to no one.

Last night was a perfect sequence of moments for SG’s debut performances at featuring Ruben Medellin and his brother Big Rich inside the Laundry Room at .lbc together, the brothers behind the decks enlisted a plethora of music spanning timelines, vocals and deep cuts. With the Big Rich setting the tone anchored by his seasoned older brother, Ruben they crafted a masterpiece performance together.

Thank you to all those in attendance and for providing the energy and support needed to make this, what felt like a good ol fashioned house party get down, happen. As always you fueled the night by making it happen. Thank you to our gracious hosts, for inviting our beloved players to share their gifts.

Until next time keep supporting house music and keep the vibe alive!
