Good to know
- “Free with advance RSVP. Question? Hit up your host on IG @steenschmidt”
- “In SILO's front room. Limited capacity.”
Hosted by DJ and musician Steen, Open Decks is a creative and fun space where DJs can hang and share their house and techno music live. Hear your favorite or original tracks on Silo's front room sound system, a custom 15,000 watt Danley powerhouse.
If you want to play, talk to Steen to sign up. Sign-up is in person at the event only, slots are 12 minutes.
The first 3 DJ's play first-come-first-spin. Then we'll select names randomly from the sign-up list throughout the night. You'll get a half hour notice before your set time. This is to ensure that DJ's who can't make the initial sign up right at 8pm still get a chance to play.
This week's cohost is MatchMyFreq Society, a community where DJs and music lovers connect in an ego-free, supportive space rooted in good energy. It’s not about who’s on top, it’s about building together.
