Depending on whom you ask, the esoteric effects of lunar cycles can be wide-ranging: good fortune, human fertility, ocean tides, werewolf prevalence and loss of sanity among them. For the like-minded musicians, DJs, dancers and visual artists who make up the Moonshine collective, the planetary satellite above all inspires their eponymous monthly event, driven by an inclusive ethos and a shared love for experimentations in dance culture.
Since its founding in 2014, Moonshine has carved out a niche in the nightlife milieu by celebrating a wide range of fledgling talents, championing Afro-futuristic, bass-heavy, electro-funk sounds, and bringing together communities that wouldn’t necessarily cross paths otherwise. As the name indicates, the lunar-based Moonshine recipe has the collective throw an all-night, sensory-soaked party on the Saturday after every full moon in ever-shifting, unpredictable locations, always strictly disclosed via text messages. With fresh cuts supplied by resident DJs and producers, visual installations, and a slew of live musicians and performers that have included Kaytranada, Dâm-Funk, DJ Maphorisa, Le1f, Venus X, Bambii and Branko to name a few, the parties have become a staple of the after-hours scene, in Canada and abroad.
