The Lab LA is Mixmag and WAV's weekly live stream and post-work unwind, powered by Void Acoustics, where we showcase the finest DJs direct from our downtown Los Angeles office. This Friday, The Lab LA is back in session with Russia's Andrey Pushkarev.

Berlin-based by way of Moscow, Andrey Pushkarev's curiosity with music began at age 15. Since the beginning of his music career, Pushkarev has built not only his own career, but also helped to develop and expand the taste for electronic music within Russia. His work with an international label put him eventually placed him in charge of the exclusive channel to import foreign vinyl and DJ gear into Russia, which also helped him amassed an impressive collection of over 6,000 records while building his eclectic taste for deep, forward-thinking and ruminative house and techno. Building a dedicated international audience through web radio , Andrey is now a stalwart champion of Russia and a coveted global talent ready to make his debut in The Lab LA.

On opening duties, we welcome Moscow native, Highkin'. Known for his work with Los Angeles' weekly party Cyclone, the LA native now focuses on his MARBLE event series. Find more info here.
