Photographed by [Martin Cabrera.](https://instagram.com/timeconsumingticktock) Last weekend was packed for LA based Korean American DJ, SOHMI who played in the SOMA Tent at San Francisco’s coveted Outside Lands Festival, as well as alongside tech-house sensation Michael Bibi at LA’s brand new venue Vermont Hollywood, presented by Framework. Perfect for the Halloween turned birthday bash season, it is a time of celebration and empowerment for SOHMI, as she breaks barriers in the music industry by giving herself the platform, and the permission, to release music on her own terms. She recently launched her own label _Permission,_ with the release of her single ’[Time](https://awal.ffm.to/sohmi_time)’. Her previous release, ‘Small Talk’ with Booka Shade has already garnered praise from underground dance music's most respected tastemakers, including Oliver Heldens and Eelke Kleijn. SOHMI’s rise in the music world continues to earn her place on stage, sharing the bill alongside artists like Hot Since 82, MK, Boris Brejcha, Yotto, Maya Jane Coles, and many more. With a sound that can be described as a blend of minimal house and techno with R&B and pop-inspired vocals, her live sets are often dark and enchanting, punctuated with unexpected moments of emotive melodies. We can’t wait to see what comes next for her. Take a behind the scenes look at this past weekend with SOHMI below. ![](https://assets-global.website-files.com/62ee0bbe0c783a903ecc0ddb/6472d8b4670f94133f4d3f77_SOHMI%2B2.jpeg) Chilling in front of the trailer pre show.
