On Friday, April 10th
@highdivemke we’ve got a fundraver on the menu. As many of you know, Cuba has been struggling with its economy and meeting its energy needs following the Trump administration's tightening of the pre-existing trade embargo and illegal invasion of Venezuela, which cut off its oil supply. As a result, some of your favorite crews have decided to collaborate to do something about that. We’ll be fundraising for the May Day Brigade (
@maydaybrigade ) – an organization that collects necessary medical and power supplies and transports them directly to Cuba, where they’ll be put to use. They’ve already begun to consolidate supplies in domestic storage units and will be taking them to Cuba via chartered plane on 4/26, and funds collected will go towards supplies and flights.
Music-wise, we’ll run the gamut of sounds accessible in Milwaukee’s underground scene.
@djfanggg from
@rhythmnraveglobal brings her signature multi-genre club sound that highlights Black contribution to electronic dance music.
@ll.ego_ from
@perpetual.motion_ supplies groove-forward 4 on the floor sounds. In addition,
@cultivate.house brings their combination of tech/house/minimal in the form of a b3b set between
@4x4saint ,
@bpmslide , and
@liketonymusic . Bass music fan? No problem.
@musicbycarsen of
@headlinersonlymke is bringing the 140 bpm bass pressure, while event organizer Alex Viper (
@l3ftfield ) of Shadow Frequency (
@shdwfrq ) brings their high-energy breakbeat-centered sound on their birthday weekend.
We’ll be running from 9pm-2am, and while not strictly required for entry, we’d suggest a $5-10 (or more if you’re feeling generous!) donation that can be made either through cash/QR code at the event or in advance directly to the May Day Brigade at the QR code in the second slide. See y’all there to build community and create a better world. Venceremos!
