DJ Boris heads to Flux on Saturday 18 July for a night presented by RX Istanbul, bringing one of the longest-running careers in New York’s underground house scene. Best known for his deep roots in tribal and progressive house, Boris has spent decades shaping marathon club sets that balance driving percussion with melodic, late-night energy. The lineup also features opening sets from 4-i b2b BLONDE STATEMENT and AYCAN. Tickets are available via BUGECE.
A fixture of New York nightlife since the early 1990s, Boris first built his reputation during influential residencies that helped define the city’s house music culture after the peak of the club era. His sound has evolved from the hard-edged tribal house that became his signature into a broader blend of progressive house, techno, and melodic grooves, while maintaining the rhythmic intensity that has made him a staple of extended DJ sets. Over the years he has released music on labels including Transmit Recordings and Armada Music, while continuing to perform at clubs and festivals across Europe, North and South America.
What distinguishes Boris is his approach to programming a night rather than simply delivering individual tracks. His sets are known for their gradual development, favouring long-form storytelling over quick transitions, with an emphasis on tension, release, and carefully layered percussion. That style has earned him a loyal following among house music audiences looking for immersive, dancefloor-focused performances built on experience rather than spectacle.
