We're DJs, dancers, organizers, and fans who believe house music deserves a stronger home in the 757.
House Revival Project is a nonprofit built by and for the community - to preserve the culture, support local talent, and create meaningful spaces where the music (and the community) can thrive.
House Revival Project is dedicated to preserving and revitalizing house music and its culture through interactive events and performances. We aim to bring house music to the forefront of the Hampton Roads scene by building a community rooted in its history, creativity, and energy.
Our mission includes expanding opportunities for house music in local venues and city events - growing its presence in the region's nightlife and arts scene through education and visibility. While our primary focus is Hampton Roads, we're committed to future expansion across Virginia and online using dynamic social media and video content to connect with a wider audience.
The organization plans to address the challenges faced by underground house music artists, fans, and event organizers - a lack of dedicated venues and the absence of structured support for local DJs and creatives. While mainstream electronic dance music (EDM) has become a multi-billion dollar industry, underground house music remains underserved, with fragmented pop-up events that lack consistency, financial backing, and long-term sustainability. House Revival Project seeks to solve these industry pain points by establishing a legally compliant, financially sustainable and community-driven ecosystem where house music can thrive, evolve, and be preserved for generations.
While bringing out national talent is a future prospect, our core goal is to highlight the amazing talent that is right in our backyard. And not just DJs, but dancers, visual artists, and the culture of house music.
Bringing community together to learn about the roots of house music; honoring its pioneers, sharing stories, and building deeper connection to the culture together.
House music has always been about belonging. While we don't have a physical space (yet), we're building a home through connection - a hub for where the music lives and the community gathers in the 757.
We're opening up new spaces - venues no one's touched yet - where we have full autonomy over set and setting. That means complete control of the vibe, the sound, and the visuals.
We're starting small, but the goal is full-scale productions with big sound systems, immersive lighting, and burner-style visual artistry that turns every event into an experience.
It won't just be live music. We're hosting documentary screenings that honor the roots of house - and we're killing the gatekeeping. If you've got a USB and house music to play, you'll have your moment on the decks.
