Detroit House Nights: Pittsburgh Takeover at Sidequest
From the moment we walked into Sidequest on 44th, we knew the night was going to be something special. The space was alive with anticipation — a mix of Pittsburgh locals and Detroit’s own Do Werk Productions family, ready to merge scenes and create one unforgettable vibe.
We set up our art table downstairs, and instantly, we felt the difference in energy. It wasn’t the usual crowd we see at during our normal Pittsburgh shows — it was a sea of new faces, curious, excited, and full of warmth. Every conversation had that spark of discovery, like everyone was genuinely happy to be there, not just for the music, but for the community being built in real time.
Downstairs, the beats didn’t let up for a single moment. Detroit came through and showed us exactly how to “disco dahn,” bringing a style and groove that was both refreshing and infectious. You could feel it in the way the crowd moved together — a seamless blend of two cities, meeting on the dancefloor. The DJs kept the energy flowing from start to finish, weaving in tracks that carried the room higher and higher as the night went on.
Looking around, it was hard not to be amazed at the turnout. People weren’t just there to dance; they were there to celebrate something bigger — music, art, and the connections that tie us all together. We felt that love at our table too, with so many people stopping by to show support, share kind words, and connect with our work. It meant the world to us.

None of it would have been possible without the incredible staff at Sidequest, who kept everything running smoothly while still creating such a welcoming environment. And of course, major thanks to Do Werk Productions for bringing their vision to Pittsburgh — they really know how to put on a show that feels both fresh and timeless.
By the end of the night, it wasn’t just an event. It was an experience — a blending of scenes, of people, of energy. We left with full hearts, inspired by the support and the music, and already looking forward to the next time we get to be part of something like this.
