Artist Spotlight: @hicham_.___ Those who joined us at Stagg last September witnessed that Hicham is someone who takes his craft very seriously. We’re thrilled to give him a platform again to share his art, this time at Signal - where the sound system is perfectly tuned and an extended set provides him a canvas of endless possibilities. His raw talent can be found in the soundscapes he curates. Always colorful. Always unexpected. Born in France, based in Brussels, Hicham has been touring internationally for nearly 10 years. While we love hosting him in NYC, this is unfortunately going to be Hicham’s last visit to the States for quite some time. Join us in what will be a beautiful night with our favorite artist. ———————————————————————————————— Artist Spotlight: @young_on_wax Busan-born, Seoul-based Young Sun channels the musical landscapes of Chicago and Detroit into a fluid, genre-blurring approach. Moving seamlessly from electro to progressive, he crafts sets built on tension release with floor-shaking low end anchors, driving bouncy grooves, and sharp rhythms. Young Sun will be setting the tone for the night, providing direct support for Hicham. When we found out that Young Sun has ties to Hicham from the renowned Seoul based venue, Teller, it was a no-brainer to have him included in this night. A perfect slot for Young Sun’s NYC debut. Friday April 3rd. Ticket link bio.

Friday April 3rd we welcome the return of our favorite artist, Hicham. If you were lucky enough to experience our event with him last September, you know how this night will unfold. The depth of his music knowledge and raw talent is hard for us to put into words. He deserves an extended set and a dialed in soundsystem, which is exactly what Signal has given us. He will be accompanied by Young Sun, making his New York City debut. Based in, and an integral part of the South Korean scene, he is well regarded by those we trust. We are honored to host him and couldn’t think of a better addition to this lineup. Opening duties by our favorite local selectors, Choukroun, Monk, and Dj Brian. This is Hichams last stop in the states for quite a while. We highly encourage grabbing tickets early before it sells out. Link in bio. See you soon.

Friday night…we’re still glowing 💫 What unfolded was truly unforgettable. A 5-hour journey from @hicham_.___ —the longest ever at Stagg—took us from late night into sunrise with seamless flow, unwavering energy, and a dance floor that never stopped moving. It was one of those rare sets where you walk away transformed, inspired, and grateful to have been there. We feel so lucky. Big love as well to @maxsprauer & @______shvili for keeping the energy until the end, to @jamie.jar for kicking things off perfectly, and to OZ (@oliviablair___ & @zmoreeee ) for sparking the dance floor at just the right moment. And to @goldenrecordnyc and @333.zion , thank you for partnering with us and giving this night its home. We can’t wait to do it all again. ♥️

Artist Spotlight: @hicham_.___ A selector who thrives in contrasts, Hicham moves from raw analog to kaleidoscopic rhythms with ease, building sets that splice eras and textures into future-facing sounds. Hicham is considered as one of the best representatives of the new generation of record diggers — his purpose as a deejay is to to tell stories with the music he discovers, playing every style mainly influenced by 80s and 90s analog sound. Hicham’s music is unique, eclectic, psychedelic and very colorful, with surprises around every corner. It is a privilege to welcome Hicham to NYC for an extended set through sunrise. 🌅 Link in bio.
