Februar y 2026 marks a unique collaboration between two DIY power houses, uniting across continents to tear down stages and connect undergro und scenes from Paramaribo to Amsterdam.

This isn’t just a musical alliance. It’s a vital cultural bridge. In a world where punk is too ofte n framed as a Western export, this connection proves the genre thrives in overlooked corners like Paramaribo, where kids build scenes from nothing. Lucas and Shavero’s friendship and share d work represent a two-way exchange: Dutch technical know-how meets Surina mese raw defiance, creating a model for global DIY solida rity. It’s proof that punk isn’t owned by any one culture, it’s a language of resistance that travels, adapts, and grows stronger through collaborat ion. This tour is the next chapter: not just shows, but a stat ement that underground music belongs everywhere.

MO WRIGHTS channels the soul in his veins through narrative-d riven mixes and productions
blending the young with the old, the clean with the dirty and affixing the riddim with the
radiance of balmy jaz z chords.

A Jazz cat by nature, House head by trade and music lover at heart, Mo Wrights is a
producer, DJ, curator and co-founder of the Amsterdam-based music platform Steppin’ Into
Tomorrow. His deep appreciation for and knowledge of music (cult ure) radiates through
narrative-driven mixes and productions. He centr alises story and narrative; genres are just
chapters which, when taken together, are greater than the sum of their parts. Don’t act
surprise d if the energy on a dancefloor pulsates the same rhythm while the rhythm of the
record traverses from House gems to Broken Beat, from Rap to Ja zz-Funk, Punjabi Garage
or Chutney-Soca and from Future Beats to Jazz Rave.

Mo seeks connections through music. Without any family or like minds guiding his taste, he
was destined to explore by himself. Early piano lessons planted the seed in him to branch
out and grow, connecting him to Acid Jazz and Hip-Hop. Later, he matured in t he clubs of
Amsterdam and so House music is the focal point of Mo’s mu sical landscape. Not the genre,
but as a timeless spirit accompanying him in the studio, in the booths of Amsterdam clubs,
and when he’s on the dance floor himself.
Mo frequently plays Dutch clubs such as Doka and De School and festivals like Lago Lago
and Lowlands. Beyond Dutch border s, he’s played in Bali and Manchester. Mo graced
various international radio stations such as WorldWide FM, 1BTN, and Kiosk Radio. His
releases on Wicked W ax, GLXY Records and Super Sonic Jazz illustrate the tapestry of
styles in his arsenal to relay stories, felt by other s across the world enticed by his signature
soulful sound.
Beyond the booth and the studio, he curates club nights and release parties, writ es about
local artists and moderates panels stimulating grassroots col laborations. He interviewed
figures such as Larry Heard, Terry Hunter, Octave One and Lynee Denise. Insights about
music’s cultural history and his experience with digitally archiving these records are at the
j unction of Mo’s research interest as a cultural analyst.
