Dom brought the disco: Disco Dom turns brand new Re:frame Studios into LA’s grooviest dance Floor

Framework officially opens its newest LA venue with two nights of Disco Dom and Dombresky.

LA, you don’t have to wait for April this year, because the Yuma tent magic has officially landed at re:frame studios. Enter Disco Dom, the ringleader ushering in a new era for raving in Los Angeles. Headlining two back-to-back nights at the brand-new venue in Atwater Village by Framework, one night as his disco alias Disco Dom and the other as Dombresky, he proved that dancing all night long is alive and well.

Friday night kicked off with massive screens flashing “Welcome to the best night of your life, Los Angeles.” While fluorescent lights covered the dance floor and a ceiling lined with numerous disco balls, Quentin Dombres, aka Disco Dom/Dombresky, stepped onto the decks and turned Framework’s brand-new space into a disco wonderland. 

As the bubble machines turned on full throttle, Disco Dom wasted zero time ripping into the grooviest flip of California Love (cue the crowd screaming “California knows how to party”). From there, it was a nonstop glittery disco fever dream. At the top of the night, around 1 AM, Dom flexed his funky mixing prowess by threading disco classics like Prince’s “1999,” “Funky Town,” and Cher’s “Believe,” into today’s hits from Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter.

Some may say that carefree raving and dancing all night long died in the 70s. And if you frequent typical LA dance floors, you will probably see this in real time: people glued to their phones, half-hearted shoulders swaying or heads bobbing lightly to the beat while wearing sunglasses, and maybe the occasional wrist flick when the beat drops. Some might say house heads don’t really dance anymore, but instead at re:frame, LA actually showed up and danced. 

The go-go boots were on every other pair of feet, the disco ball helmets and bucket hats were bouncing, and the cheetah print faux fur jackets were alive and thriving. And rest assured, Disco Dom’s iconic bombshell disco backup dancers were hitting every beat with their golden fringe outfits that reflected the dancefloor’s energy.

Dom’s curated sounds and moments that brought people to the floor all night long, coupled with Framework’s signature high-fidelity production and sound system, created the perfect concoction for non-stop grooving. Surrounding the warehouse-turned-disco venue were late-night eats supplied by some of LA’s beloved food trucks, and bright-eyed staff members passing out disco ball headbands and beaded necklaces to rave-goers. The atmosphere was undoubtedly a breath of fresh air for the LA scene.

So, for anyone claiming people don’t dance anymore, it’s time to catch a Disco Dom set and try your luck scoring a ticket to LA’s hottest (and almost completely sold out) new venue, re:frame. After this weekend, it’s clear that Framework and Disco Dom brought the sparkle back to the LA rave scene.

Hi, I’m Lily! I’m an LA-based concert & festival diehard! My life was forever changed after my first festival, Coachella 2019, and then fully spiraled (in the best way) after my first EDC in 2023. I have attended over 140+ shows... I am the ultimate stage hopper and will always make it to the barricade. I love dubstep, house, trance, techno, bass, you name it. If I’m not at a show, I’m working as a social media manager & photographer, or probably listening to music, learning how to DJ, planning my next festival, or watching a Gordon Ramsay cooking show with my cat. I am so excited to be writing for Exron and sharing my love for music. If you're reading this, thanks for being here and reading my stuff!
