Donovan Schmidt is the artist behind one of the Midwests most avant-garde and creatively inspired projects, HeDawn. An experienced DJ with roots in chopped-and-screwed hip-hop, HeDawn has taken the dark and lumbering tones made famous by the late DJ Screw to an extreme and impressive conclusion: an experimental, bass-heavy collage of sounds that resembles no other artist. HeDawn includes audio-visual elements, original production, and highly manipulated bass music to reflect the projects namesake, a sensory-buffet that would appeal to the modern “Hedawnist.” HeDawn continues to push boundaries, striving to create an ever-more-immersive experience that plays with exchanges of energy between artist and community, performer and audience, the self and the other.
