FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Founded by renowned DJ/producer A Hundred Drums, Los Angeles’ underground bass event series B-Side is gearing up to celebrate its 10-year anniversary. They are thrilled to partner with SoCal festival Same Same But Different (SSBD) to celebrate this milestone on June 20 at Hollywood’s Dragonfly. Together, these two independent crews are coming together to highlight the power of local scenes and to amplify California’s vibrant, homegrown dance music culture.The event will feature a stacked lineup of heavy-hitters and emerging talent, including Thought Process, Parkbreezy, Pheel, as well as BSide day ones Anabadi, and Chemistry MC on the mic all night. Additionally, it will feature live art, vendors, synchronistic sound, and the return of the legendary B-Side DJ Battle—where rising artists compete for the chance to play not one, but two stages: B-Side and Same Same But Different. To participate, DJs can submit their video and rally their crew to vote. Submissions open May 12 and close May 27. Voting lasts June 3-17, with the 3 finalists slated to perform at B-Side. “B-Side has been holding it down for the underground for a decade, and we’re honored to help celebrate that legacy. At SSBD, we’ve always believed in supporting independently produced events that are built from the heart—and that’s exactly what B-Side represents. This partnership is about uplifting the culture and showing what’s possible when communities come together.” - Brad Sweet (Co-Founder of SSBD) This collaboration officially joins the road to SSBD 2025 shows as a celebration of independently produced experiences that have shaped California’s underground music scene. Together, B-Side and SSBD are carving out space for compelling, authentic, and community-driven connection through music.
