Introducing the Community Function Mix Series 🎉 recorded live on Belle Isle

CF001 from @lo.dazz features jazzy melodies, disco strings, and moody R&B vocals layered on classic house grooves. The dance floor was brought to collective bliss as the Detroit sunset sparkled in the summer rain. A rainbow appearing in the sky halfway through certified this set as nothing short of special.

With a recent performance at @menjoscomplex alongside Detroit staple @tylrdetroit for the TRIKK party, Lauren’s a rising dj to keep your eyes and ears on.

A real dj's dj, Venn Diagram's eclectic selections pull from all ends of the club music spectrum. Recorded live at Belle Isle on 09/01/22, the party-goers moved through rare cuts of ambient, minimal techno, rumbaton, electro, and Miami bass.

Venn Diagram expresses his musical prowess not only on CDJs, he's also performed live at Corktown's UFO Factory, and spun wax at downtown's Paramita Sound. Enjoy the mix and catch us again at Belle Isle this upcoming Thursday 09/22/22 for another carefully curated lineup of local heat.

Taken by electronic music before he even knew what a turntable was, rocking 5th grade birthday parties with tracks like Orbital’s Halcyon On and On, Community Function brings you Detroit’s one and only Dru Allan. A teacher and a student in his own right, Dru embodies the spirit of dance music like no other, connecting people through his extensive music knowledge and astute track selection. Growing up in Flint, MI where electronic had a nonexistent scene, Dru dove deep to find the music he was so drawn to with the help of his older brother who  introduced him to the world of trance, progressive and electronic music at the turn of the millennium. Community Function is extremely proud to showcase one of our favorite selectors in the city, and excited to also share this Q&A with the man himself! Sit back and enjoy the mix, be sure to follow Dru to hear his latest tunes and see what his next moves might be.

Community Function welcomes Medha Achar, a Detroit-based DJ whose practice is deeply beat-driven and rooted in soulful sounds. She draws inspiration from Detroit and Chicago house, along with various global rhythms, allowing her environment and lived experiences to shape an ever-evolving and genre-fluid identity. 

“I wanted this mix to evoke the light-hearted playfulness of summertime in Detroit (as seen through its soulful vocals), while still weaving in harder instrumentals to groove to throughout.”

Catch Medha this Saturday 8/2 at Community Function Presents... on the Pocket Change Rooftop

Next up on Community Function we have britty. a Detroit-based DJ with a deep love for groove, space, and the energy of a good dance floor. Longtime dancer turned selector, her sets are inspired by being locked in the groove with sounds that move through minimal house, techno, breakbeats, and left-field textures.

"This mix is a love letter to the Marble Bar patio dance floor. Inspired by late nights that melt into early mornings, locked deep in a groove beneath the disco skull, only to be released when the first rays of sunlight catch the mirrors above. The playful textures and deep grooves are meant to keep you locked in but pleasantly surprised at what’s coming next. Enjoy the ride. "

We’ve had some incredible sets played at the Community Function parties over the past few years so we thought we’d create a new mix series to relive those moments. First up on Community Function Live we have a mix from Amino recorded live at our party at the Pocket Change rooftop on August 2nd. Amino took control of the dance floor from the very start and had us locked in with her signature rolling basslines and textured percussions, we knew right away this was the mix we wanted to share with you all. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did :)

“Finishing my first run to NY & ATL I truly felt like this was going to be homecoming of sorts. Flew home with an abundance of inspiration and a strive to simply find comfortability and curiosity with my dancers. When preparing I kept in mind what would feel good in the sun overlooking Gratiot.  The feeling of excitement when I arrived home into a warm embrace of this community is a core memory of summer 2025. 

I’ve always wanted to play a Community Function and I truly feel like we all created this set to be what it was. 

Thank you boys for doing it proper for us time and time again!“
