LMNOP is a duo led by Los Angeles native Zach Schwartz and his partner LIL Z. Rooted in the city's bass music underground, they create high-energy Jump Up Drum and Bass and deliver immersive performances that blur the line between raw rave chaos and precision sound design.
In 2025, LMNOP made history at the Hollywood Palladium, opening for UK heavyweight Hedex after winning the My Home Is The Rave DJ competition. The all-original set proved LMNOP to be more than just a rising act—it cemented them as one of the few artists pioneering the Jump Up sound in America. That momentum continued with a massive booking opening for Andy C at Academy LA for Bassrush, solidifying LMNOP as a key player in the American Drum and Bass movement.
Now, LMNOP is preparing to release their sophomore album PSYOP on Play Me Records—a conspiracy-fueled, genre-defying project that blends cinematic world-building with rave anthems.
