a nyc festival celebrating black electronic artists and a blog centering black perspectives [email protected] 17-22 & 27 Feb 2026
- Need to make the observation that the biggest mags in dance music, primarily DJ Mag and Mixmag, did not write anything about this year’s Dweller festival. Not even an announcement. An all-Black electronic festival, you’d think that would be low hanging fruit to cover but alas.
- Seems like a great time to redirect to our library specializing in the history of house and techno music. Free education: dwellerforever.blog/library
- Mike Huckaby, DJ Rolando and Derrick May discuss the plagiarism of ‘Knights of the Jaguar’. Taken from “Detroit the Blueprint of Techno” (1998) documentary which you can find in our library: dwellerforever.blog/library
00:00 - Dweller 3 line up is here. This year we’re exploring intergenerational connections in Black electronic music and how profound those ties are can be. How do we find each other in the noise? Artwork by @hassanrahim. More festival details to come.
- Enter through the portal of dweller 4. Event specifics rolling out 🌪️

- We will not be hosting an edition of Dweller in Berlin this year. We made this decision a while ago due to the way German institutions were treating those opposing the current genocide in Palestine, it’s now reached an absurd level of control which you can read more on below.STRIKE GERMANY is a call for international cultural workers to strike from German cultural institutions. It is a call to refuse German cultural institutions' use of McCarthyist policies that suppress freedom of expression, specifically expressions of solidarity with Palestine 1/x
- black artists show us your bandcamps:
- Rest in peace to both Kelli Hand and Paul Johnson. Not sure if we'll ever truly understand whats been lost in the past 24 hours. Love to their friends and family.
- To recognize Juneteenth our co-editor @careforgotten has researched over 60 articles on techno and its black history that we have compiled into a free library of links and PDFs on our blog. No excuse folks, read up and enjoy the rich history ❤️ dwellerforever.blog/library/
- Our latest piece is a conversation between @_Axm3d and @drmathys_ on the bleaching of techno and how appropriation is normalized and preserved. dwellerforever.blog/2020/06/24/a-c…
- Replying to @dwellerforeverAlso key to add that the festival was our biggest ever, their coverage doesn’t dictate the success of Dweller (which is fucking siiiick btw) but only reveals there is little vested interest in covering underground cultural rumblings and more interest in covering the opposite.
