Cafe DJs are expected to curate selections for a relaxed & comfortable daytime vibe
[P.S. we love all the genres above... but to keep things welcoming for our daytime attendees - please save your club music for nighttime events, or book Swing Dash for all-genre livestreaming: swingdash.live/book. If you have a set in mind from genres not permitted and feel would be appropriate for cafe, we will deal with requests on a discretionary basis]
VOLUME POLICY
Maximum permitted volume for cafe sets is marked on the mixer. You must not exceed this level at any time. Our team may request that the volume be reduced at their discretion - team decisions are final and must be followed immediately.
YOUR AGREEMENT WITH MOVERS
By accepting a Cafe set, you agree to fully comply fully with these rules. If the music or volume policy is not adhered to...
- You will be asked to stop performing immediately
- You will not be invited back to play at Movers
We really appreciate your cooperation in our efforts to create this welcoming atmosphere for everyone in our cafe
