More than 100 DJs from across over 50 cities will go b2b2b2b(2b2b...) this weekend for Earth Night. Presented by DJs For Climate Action, the collective was founded by Soul Clap's Eli Goldstein and aims to “harness the influence of dance music and DJ culture to power climate solutions and generate action.”
Soul Clap, Blond:ish, Doorly, Louisahhh, Nickodemus and many more will take part in the giant set, with each DJ playing one track before passing onto the next. "Genre barriers will be thrown out the window, creating a mix that is unpredictable, fun, inspirational, messy and totally unique," organisers said via the Earth Night website.
The event follows on from the 2019 edition which saw "8 venues worldwide, 30+ DJs, 3000 fans and over $10K raised for climate action," according to a description of the 2019 recap video (watch below). Of course, the 2020 will look very different indeed to last year's version, with organisers saying, "Global Nightlife is currently shut down…so we’re going online and taking it from the clubs to living rooms!"
Earth Night starts at 3pm GMT on April 26th which is 1am AEST on Monday, April 27th. It will run until 1am GMT April 27th, or 11am AEST April 27th, and you can stream the whole event on Twitch. For more information, head to the Earth Night website.
