The Carry Nation

House

HEADLINER

The Carry Nation is a New York duo whose credibility is inseparable from the actual history of queer nightlife in the city. Made up of Nita Aviance and Will Automagic, they play with a deep-rooted, big-room house sensibility that pulls from classic New York house, disco, vocal anthems, darker afterhours energy, and the kind of high-drama dancefloor instinct that only comes from years inside the culture. What makes them stand out is that they do not just feel like DJs playing queer nightlife, they feel like artists who helped shape it. They are especially known for marathon back-to-backs and their long-running Good Room party, and their sets carry that rare mix of theatricality, soul, toughness, and release that makes sense in both proper club spaces and more hedonistic sunrise territory. They read less like a trend-driven act and more like a true institution of New York queer dance culture.

Mike Servito

Techno

Detroit-born and NYC-based, Mike Servito has fine-tuned a legendary reputation built on acid-tinged house and techno with deep reverence for dancefloor history. Inspired by Detroit radio icons like Electrifying Mojo and The Wizard, he brought that legacy to NYC’s Bunker, becoming a key resident and earning global respect for genre-defying, emotionally potent sets, Resident Advisor even named his Movement Festival after-party mix Mix of the Year in 2014. A true “DJ’s DJ” with roots in Detroit’s raw jacking house and acid ethos, Servito continues to shape underground culture with unpredictable, soulful performances that transcend trends.

House

Kim Anh brings a deeply rooted house sensibility to queer underground nightlife, with sets that balance groove, sensuality, and real cultural context. Her sound draws from classic house and disco, but it does not feel nostalgic in a museum-piece way. There is usually a lot of sensuality, groove, and attitude in what she does, and that foundation is matched by a bigger cultural point of view shaped through parties like Booby Trap! and Tendencies, plus her work championing the queer and POC roots of dance music. As a producer and label head through Can U Not Talk Records, she reads as someone with both strong musical taste and real scene-building credibility, which is why she feels less like just another house DJ and more like a genuine nightlife force.
