The Music on the RISE Foundation (or “MOTR” ) is an organization that is dedicated to providing robust musical education, cultural music heritage and professional music industry guidance to black and latino youth in underserved communities severely lacking in music education funding in the NYC metropolitan area.

This past spring we wrapped up our virtual pilot program with the DOE school Walkabout Bronx High School, where our program reached 51 students as both a club and end of the year initiative. We are currently gearing up for our fall programs which will be our first in person initiatives post pandemic.

Based out of Key+Needle Studios in Williamsburg, Brooklyn - MOTR’s fundraisers aim to create community around the foundation’s ethos in order to amplify and raise awareness on the importance of saving the arts in NYC’s underserved public schools.

Friday July 16th: Danny Krivit & Rissa Garcia at 3 Dollar Bill

"Danny Krivit, really should need no introduction to anyone with even a whisker of an interest in this incredible thing we call the world of 'dance' music. Growing up in Greenwich Village, New York City, in the 1960s, his mother was an accomplished jazz singer and his father was the manager of legendary jazz trumpeter Chet Baker before going on to open up “The Ninth Circle”, a Village hot spot. Starting DJing at age 14 and learning from all the greats, including James Brown, David Mancuso and Larry Levan he became synonymous with his funk, soul, and disco edits (under the Mr. K name). His list of residencies and associations read like the dictionary of music he is. Responsible for the immensely popular 718 Sessions and one-third of the Body & Soul collective, we caught up with Mr K over our increasingly dodgy skype connection ahead of his sidexside appearance this weekend with Horse Meat Disco for an insight into the mind of one of house music’s living legends." -Ransom Note
