On Friday, April 17, Beatport Live will stream 36 extraordinary artists for 36 straight hours from homes and studios all over the globe.
Following the wild success of our first ReConnect livestream event, Beatport is proud to announce that the second installment of this charitable celebration of dance music will return on Friday, April 17, and extending through the weekend for 36 hours of nonstop performances. RSVP here.
With around 11.5 million people tuning in to watch artists like Carl Cox, Nastia, Bonobo, Pete Tong, Nicole Moudaber, Chris Liebing, ANNA, and more play live from their living rooms and studios, the first ReConnect stream raised over $185,000 in donations for COVID-19 relief, which was donated to the World Health Organization’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund, as well as the Association For Electronic Music’s COVID-19 Hardship Fund.
This time around, we’ve tapped 36 DJs of the highest caliber from all over the globe to bring you the best in house, techno, trance, and more for your viewing and listening pleasure.
Check out the set times below! (Subject to updates).
Hosted on Twitch and broadcasting live on Facebook, YouTube, and Periscope, this intimate online event is bound to fill your home with the dancefloor vibes we cherish and long for as we shelter in place.
As a way to support both the frontline healthcare workers who are battling the spread of Coronavirus and those in our music scene that are in dire straits financially during this global pandemic, all the donations collected during the event will go to the Association For Electronic Music’s COVID-19 Hardship Fund, and Bridges For Music.
Helping us raise awareness and funds for this online danceathon are some of the biggest names in music tech, like Pioneer DJ, Native Instruments, and Roland. Offering up loads of free gear as an incentive for viewers to donate, you can tune in for your chance to score headphones, speakers, DJ controllers, software, synths, and more.
