Before it sparked movements like Philly and Jersey club, Baltimore Club stood as its own unstoppable force-raw, high-energy, and deeply rooted in the city’s pulse. Built by pioneers like Scottie B and Rod Lee through platforms like Unruly Records, the sound fused house, hip-hop, and electro into something explosive and unmistakable.
On May 29th, CRUSH brings that lineage to life with two artists pushing the culture forward in real time:
@tromac is a visionary DJ, artist, and curator known for electrifying, genre-fluid sets that weave together Baltimore Club, techno, jungle, and house. Their sound has moved crowds on some of the world’s biggest stages-trom Coachella to Movement Detroit to Amsterdam Dance Event—while collaborations with artists like Lakim and Dreamcastmoe showcase their deep creative reach. Beyond performance, Tromac is the founder of Break A Leg, a Baltimore party series creating intentional, expressive dancefloor spaces, and co-founder of 3SIDE-continuing to shape culture through community and sound.
Alongside them,
@calvomusic (Vo) represents the next wave. A Baltimore-born DJ and producer, he is the architect behind NCW (New Club Waves)-
a forward-thinking evolution of club music rooted in Baltimore’s DNA. Since launching the movement in 2018, Vo has built global momentum with releases on labels like Night Slugs, viral tracks like “We From Baltimore,” and appearances on platforms such as NTS Radio and KEXP. From the UK to South Africa, his reach continues to expand-reshaping what club music can sound like on a global stage.
Making their CRUSH Debut we also have
@chrjstopher and
@eegodeaths , two of my favorite selectors in our scene!
This night isn’t just about music-it’s about legacy, evolution, and energy colliding.
CRUSH invites you into the rhythm that started it all—and the future it continues to build.
