After expanding to L.A. in 2018, the New York born Stranger Than has established itself by bringing global dance acts to parks, historic sites and -- this weekend -- the beach.

Indeed, because so much filming takes place in L.A., Ohana believes it’s easier to get permits to shut down a street or public space for a party than in other cities. One of Stranger Than’s seven full-time employees, Russel Hadaya, is focused on location scouting and managing, and also works as a film scout. The other employees work on marketing, talent buying, content creation and operations.

“It was harder in the beginning than now,” Ohana says, “because the city knows us and knows what we’re doing.” Just as with large events, the power of the brand is important and can help get people to out to parties, particularly with so many promoters and events in L.A. Stranger Than harnesses this power with events that often bring well-known international brands to new cities for the first time.with Mayan Warrior, Stranger Than has partnered with legendary the Ibiza club Circoloco for their L.A.

“It’s always different when you come in for the first time,” Ohana says. “If you’re using a location that has been used before you have something to work with, like a skeleton. Where was the stage? Where was the bar?” Stranger Than remains most active in L.A. and New York, but also throws events in San Francisco, Miami and Austin, a city Ohana feels “is very similar to L.A. three or four years ago.” In New York, Stranger than works with independent house and techno promoter powerhouse Teksupport. The partnership has helped Teksupport build a presence on the West Coast, where they also co-host buzzy events.
