Mike Servito
A Detroit-area native, Servito got his early education by tuning into the Electrifying Mojo and the Wizard (Jeff Mill's radio moniker). By the early '90s, Servito was primed to try his hand at the deejaying arts, "I was just kind of cocky about it," he says. "I knew I could do it." And he was right--in the DJ hotbed of Detroit, internalizing knowledge gleamed from the likes of Mike Huckaby and Claude Young, he kept working at it until he established himself as a force to be reckoned with in the Motor City circuit, eventually becoming a member in good standing with the inner circle of Ghostly International.
Servito had played Movement once before, in 2011. "And between then and 2014," he recalls, "I had been playing so many Bunker parties, playing so many great gigs and my profile was rising--so I was sure they would book me again." The invite never came. Instead, he booked himself at every Movement after-party he could, one of which was the annual No Way Back, a legendary throw down hosted by The Bunker New York and Detroit's Interdimensional Transmissions label. The set, a riotously sweaty bleeps-and-beats affair, was recorded for posterity; unexpectedly but deservedly, it garnered a nod as the year's No 1 online Mix of the Year on Resident Advisor.
That was the spark that set Servito's career aflame, the push that took him to the top. Since then, he's cemented his status as one of the most respected spinners around, regularly manning the decks at such hallowed halls as Berlin's Panorama Bar, London's XOYO and Tokyo's Contact, not to mention the world's best festivals--including, of course Movement. And to this day, his approach to deejaying is refreshingly simple: "I really don't think about it," he says, "When I'm playing, I just dive in, and I'm OK." He's far more than okay--he's one of the best around.
Mossmoss
Mossmoss (aka Mattie Bowen) is a Scottish born dj and producer with an intense interest in explorative dance music. With a keen ear and eye for detail, he is an artist by nature. His wandering sets paint landscapes of light and dark patterns, textures, and strange melody. Mattie's inspiration draws from the organic details of existence, the tiny pieces most overlook in exchange for the big-picture rush of an ever changing modern world. His mind deeply set to explore these facets and to share his exploration in all forms to those that might look and listen. Mossmoss currently resides San Francisco and draws on The City and its colorful nightlife for constant immersive inspiration.
Rodney
Rodney fully immersed himself in the San Francisco underground music scene upon moving to the city from Los Angeles in 2014. With a respectful understanding of the unique culture that exists around collecting and playing vinyl, Rodney pursued deeper musical knowledge and a fine-tuning of his skills under the mentorship of Tyrel Williams (Acid Test, Immortal Sin). Rodney's unwavering love for vinyl quickly extended into his life away from his decks at home, ushering him into working for Vinyl Dreams and RS94109; two of San Francisco's most beloved record stores catering to dance music enthusiasts of all varieties. As Rodney fell into family-style relationships with artists and dancers in the Bay Area, his sound began to take shape. His DJ sets fall somewhere on the spectrum between sultry and energetic, always paying homage to the roots of dance music with their simultaneous Chicago and Detroit flavor, and never missing an opportunity to showcase music from local Bay Area artists.
