 Jen Scumaci, known locally as DJ Skooch, has launched WAKE+RAVE (online), a high-intensity morning dance party to help people kickstart their days.

Coined “The Community’s DJ,” Scumaci has provided the soundtrack for community-focused events including TEDx Portsmouth, Portsmouth PRIDE, Telluride by the Sea at The Music Hall, Beats with Benefits at The Wilder, and PechaKucha Night at 3S ArtSpace.

WAKE+RAVE is live-streamed by DJ Skooch every Wednesday morning 7-8AM (Eastern Time Zone) and is free to all participants.

As COVID continues to limit in-person gatherings, WAKE+RAVE aims to help people boost their happy hormones first thing in the morning by tuning in and dancing from home while interacting with others who are doing the same. Research has shown that music and movement reduce anxiety, blood pressure, and pain as well as improve mood, mental alertness, and memory. But perhaps the biggest opportunity with WAKE+RAVE is to keep people connected to each other through a global pandemic.

“Community is everything to me. Community is all about connection, and I am a firm believer that there is nothing more important. In my worldview, nothing is permanent – everything is fleeting. So all we really have (and all we really are) is energy in the present moment. The question then becomes whether we use that energy to bring people together or to push them apart,” says Scumaci.
