Beyond the Dancefloor: From the Midwest to the World
Saturday, May 22
MoCAD
4454 Woodward Avenue
21+ | 4pm to 7pm | Free

As dance music culture becomes increasingly global and career oriented, what does success actually mean?

From Detroit and Chicago outward, generations of artists have shaped club culture through dedication to craft, community, and long term artistic vision rather than algorithmic visibility or market trends.

On May 22, @father___dukes, @shaunjwright, and @mikeservito reflect on how they first encountered rave and club culture, how those formative experiences shaped their careers, and how their practices today continue to resist purely careerist models of success.

Moderated by @lizmosis.

What does it mean to build a sustainable life in music without sacrificing artistic identity? How do local scenes shape global influence? What does alternative success look like in 2026?

4:00pm Doors
4:30pm Panel
6:00pm Mixer
7:00pm End

Presented by Beyond Booking, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that operates The Bunker New York, in collaboration with @mocadetroit.

RSVP link in bio. This event is free. Please RSVP only if you truly plan to attend so we can make space for everyone who wants to be there.

Flyer by @andrewcharlesedman.

____________

Born and raised in west suburban Chicagoland, Shaun J. Wright spent most of their teen years immersed in the sounds of house music. In the late 80’s and early 90’s, house music was a powerful force, permeating the mainstream airwaves of Chicago’s most prominent radio stations. With Wright being raised in the epicenter of house culture during this era, their love for dance music began to expand throughout their high school years as they partook in the underground dance scene now globally known as Juke.

While in undergrad at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Wright developed their skills as a dancer in the vogue ballroom scene and professional dance companies. After acquiring an MA Fashion Curation from the London College of Fashion, Wright enjoyed an active career in fashion in New York City. That is where they met Andrew Butler, founder of Hercules and Love Affair, in 2008, and began a whirlwind collaboration with the ensemble as a vocalist. They spent nearly three years touring with the outfit, performing in major venues & festivals throughout North & South America and Europe. They’re also featured prominently on the ensemble’s lauded sophomore album, “Blue Songs’.

Returning to Chicago in 2012 to forge their solo career, Wright began to collaborate with respected DJ and producer Alinka. Promptly after beginning their party Twirl in the spring of 2013, Wright & Alinka released their first EP, Twirl Vol. 1, on the celebrated Classic Music Company led by luminaries Luke Solomon and Derrick Carter. They continued to expand upon the brand in late 2014 with their Twirl Records debut release “Journey Into The Deep” EP which included remixes from Kim Ann Foxman and Stereogamous.
