Despite a late start, Far East Movement sent their diehard fans home happy following an impromptu performance last night at an event in downtown Los Angeles.

The electro pop group threw a party called “Dirty Bass Museum” at Hunter Studios to hype up their forthcoming album. Guests were encouraged to bring gifts for the Toys for Tots program which saw a $5,000 donation from the band in giant check format.

Legendary hip hop veteran DJ Quik was on hand to do a DJ set before giving way to FM’s DJ Virman. Kev Nish told charactermedia.com the band wasn’t scheduled to perform but being back in their hometown compelled them to get on stage.

FM whipped the crowd into a frenzy with their chart-topping hit “Like a G6,” followed by “Rocketeer.” They then played a track off their new album “Dirty Bass,” set for release early next year.

The group, in town on their off day between tour dates, will be playing at the MTS Centre in Winnipeg, Canada, tonight.

The cognac was flowing like water at the event, which was sponsored by Remy Martin. Delicious tacos were also flowing like water with catering by #1 Taco Shop.
