Nocturnal Wonderland Pre-Party in The Lab LA with Pig&Dan

Here's where we're kicking off your festival weekend

The Lab Los Angeles is Mixmag and Smirnoff Sound Collective's weekly post-work unwind where we stream only the finest American and international DJs, live and direct from our Downtown LA office. This Thursday, we're hosting a pre-party ahead of Insomniac's Nocturnal Wonderland with Pig&Dan in The Lab LA.

After meeting for the first time on a flight to Spain back in 1999, Igor Tchkotoua and Dan Duncan came together to form what would eventually become the prolific, illustrious partnership that is Pig&Dan. Since, the duo have become a mainstay on the techno circuit with releases on Cocoon, Bedrock, Plus 8, Terminal M and collaborations with electronic's elite like John Digweed, Deadmau5, Underworld and more.

Pig&Dan also helm their own imprint ELEVATE, which houses an impressive roster including Monika Kruse, Alberto Ruiz, Steve Parker and Mark Reeve.

We've got Pig&Dan ahead of their performance at Nocturnal Wonderland in Southern California, which takes place across Labor Day Weekend from September 2 through 4. Tickets are available here.

Egyptian native and the Southern Californian-based ΛNDRW who has been playing since he was 13-years old joins us on opening duties.

The Lab LA is strongly powered by Void Acoustics. Subscribe to Mixmag TV and watch Pig&Dan in The Lab LA below.
