  their own biography

  the whole biography

  Second Contact is a New York City–based DJ and collaborator whose driving force behind the decks feels like seduction through control. His practice lives in the charged space between discipline and abandon, shaped by a shared dialogue and individual instinct. Moving fluidly between downtempo, dark wave, EBM, and progressive trance, his sets unfold in long, deliberate arcs that privilege tension, texture, and trust. Rather than overwhelm a room, Second Contact cultivates atmosphere. His selections linger, tease, and breathe, inviting dancers inward while leaving space for unpredictability. This same sensibility extends beyond the decks, ruled by a deep desire to cultivate community, draw inspiration from the unlikeliest of places, and build something from nothing through exchange rather than ego. His approach favors intimacy over spectacle and curiosity over dominance; his DJ sets result in a physical, quietly sinister, and visceral atmosphere designed not to command attention but to hold space and engage in play. Stepping away from any spectacle, Second Contact plays with the uninhibited, open-minded queerdos and freaks; an intimate tremble that demands total surrender from those who’d rather be lost in the secret than found in the light. Second Contact believes the most powerful moments on a dance floor come from anticipation. His approach is rooted in restraint, timing, and emotional intelligence, letting desire accumulate before release. His sets ask for patience and, in turn, reward surrender; slowly, but surely, creating spaces where dancers feel held, challenged, and quietly undone. Over the past few years, Second Contact has become a familiar presence in New York City’s most respected rooms, including Nowadays, Mansions, Nightmoves, Bossa Nova Civic Club, and Good Room. Internationally, his sound has carried to adventurous and discerning dance floors across Europe and beyond, including Sameheads, Salon des Amateurs, Post Bar, as well as scenes in Tbilisi, Georgia and Mexico City, where he operates in the high-stakes gap between discipline and abandon for the those who celebrate openness and risk and welcome the pursuit of creativity and expression instead of the easily digestible and familiar. As Honey Trap mainstay and resident, he shapes the cadence with a patient hand whether setting the tone at the opening doors or driving the final hours at close. His sound at Honey Trap leans into the series’ core–synth lust, hot tracks–bringing the dancefloor into a place of shared trust and communal rapture. Second Contact’s long-form sensibility extends naturally into radio with his guest mixes appearing on well-regarded The Lot Radio, Kiosk Radio, and Mutant Radio.
