Giving Groove x Boston Open Decks

A summer night built around house music, rare grooves, and a patio turned dance floor. We’re bringing Boston Open Decks together with Giving Groove for one of our biggest nights of the summer. Starting with open decks as the sun goes down, then moving into a full evening of local selectors, new sounds, and high-energy sets. **6PM OPEN DECKS** Two hours for the community. Sign up in person for a 30-minute slot; every 30 minutes, we’ll pull a name from the hat to keep things fair and give everyone an equal chance to play. **8PM DJ CONTEST WINNER** Our contest winner takes over for a full one-hour set. **9PM ASHACK** Making his start in London, ASHACK drew inspiration from the dark clubs and underground events. Curating his own blends of unique house and techno. His style is deep and engaging, with hard-hitting tracks and unfamiliar melodies. Now in Boston, ASHACK is looking to bring the European dance energy to the States. ASHACK is visionary behind the community-centered "Boston Open Decks" program, giving upcoming DJs and the community a space to connect. **10PM GIVING GROOVE / BREAD.MAN** Expect energetic house, rare grooves, a proper sound system, summer air, and a dance floor that gets better as the sun goes down. Boston Open Decks has always been about making dance music more accessible, no gatekeeping, no pressure. Just DJs, dancers, and people who want to discover something new.
