MoMA PS1’s signature summer music series, Warm Up charts origin points for innovations in electronic music, both new and historic. The 2024 program is anchored by an array of scenes active across New York City’s independently organized club and nightlife venues, brought together with musicians from Detroit, São Paulo, Miami, Los Angeles, London, and more. Each evening features DJ sets and live performances that crescendo from sonic experimentation to dancefloor breakbeats.

This year’s lineup includes artists such as Detroit techno pioneer Terrence Dixon; queer nightlife icon KIM ANH; Paris-based soul-crushing electronica producer Emma dj; Atlanta-based founder of Underground & Black Ash Lauryn; avant-garde ensemble Tongue in the Mind, a collaboration between artists Juliana Huxtable, Jealous Orgasm, and Via App; co-founder of the São Paulo collective and record label Mamba Negra Cashu; rising Miami-based trance musicians SoFTT; Hyperdub label founder Kode9; and Jersey club luminary UNIIQU3. The complete lineup follows below. Advance tickets are now available for all dates, as well as a season pass that grants admission to all performances for $75, offered for a limited time only.

Now in its 26th season, Warm Up 2024 takes place in the MoMA PS1 courtyard with a newly commissioned stage design by artist Stewart Uoo, who previously exhibited in Greater New York. A group of New York-based artists key to the city’s interdisciplinary music and performance networks serves as this year’s host committee: Korakrit Arunanondchai (Ghost/BKK), E. Jane (MHYSA), Tom Laprade (Montez Press Radio), Oscar Nñ (Papi Juice), and Jen Sillen (Rash/Club Cringe).
