Rose Kourts, Honey B, Andrew Raposo, Borbón - Dead Letter No.9

Four of New York’s underground champions step into booth for a night built on groove, edge, and pure dance-floor devotion. Rose Kourts brings her signature hybrid style, vinyl and digital woven into seamless, shape-shifting spells. Her sets move with intention: jagged techno into sensual house, jungle into acid, always musical, always charged. Rooted in Black and queer dance-music lineage, she plays with passion and joy, steering dancers through peaks, swerves, and surprise at every turn. With appearances spanning BASEMENT to Boiler Room and tours alongside artists like Moodymann, Juan Atkins, and Disclosure, she’s become one of Brooklyn’s most magnetic selectors. HONEY B, producer and XOXA resident, follows her own map blending techno, house, and shimmering left-field textures into sets that hit hard and travel wide. A fixture across NYC institutions from Good Room to House of Yes and a regular in Berlin, Baltimore, and Montreal, she brings a bold, rhythmic sensibility shaped by years in the queer and underground scenes. Her originals, including the RA-praised “Brick City” and Brazil-inspired “3 caipirinhas,” reflect that same punch and playfulness. In the Foyer, we welcome Borbón bringing the kind of skill that only years behind the decks can deliver. Moving through house, disco, and Latin grooves, he reads the room with ease, layering rhythms and unexpected turns that keep the floor in constant motion. He’ll be bringing along a very special guest: Andrew Raposo of Midnight Magic, adding his signature bass-driven, cosmic-disco touch to the night. Raposo arrives with a rich history in New York’s dance underground. Before co-founding Midnight Magic, he cut his teeth as part of Hercules & Love Affair’s early touring lineup, helping bring their now-iconic disco revival sound to stages across the world. In the years that followed, he became a go-to bassist, producer, and engineer for artists like Jessica 6, Hess Is More, and a constellation of New York musicians who sought out his instinct for groove and analog texture. With Midnight Magic, Raposo helped create some of the scene’s most enduring modern disco anthems, Beam Me Up, Drop Me a Line, and Same Way I Feel — tracks that continue to echo through clubs more than a decade later. His appearance in the Foyer brings the weight of that history: deep-trained musicianship, genre-blurring creativity, and the unmistakable warmth of someone who has shaped the city’s sound from the inside.
