This is it!
The party’s happening at 47-33 5th St, Long Island City, NY 11101
As you can see from the map below, if you’re coming from Brooklyn, it’s one stop into Queens on the G train, then ~3 blocks from the 21st St station.
From Manhattan you can take the E or V train to 23rd St — Ely Ave, but it’s a bit of a walk and we would recommend hailing a cab instead.
Unfortunately the 7 train is not running Saturday night.
In a car from Manhattan:
- Take the Queensboro Bridge
- Turn right at Thomson Ave
- Left at Jackson Ave
- Right at 48th Ave
- Take a slight right at Vernon Blvd continuing onto 48th Ave
- Finally turn right at 5th Street. The venue is on the right.
The party starts at 10pm and will go strong well into the morning. We suggest arriving early for the reduced admission of $10 and to catch all the guest performers — Runaway are on at 12:30. It’s $20 after midnight.
Looking forward to seeing you!
Once again we are proud of the diverse line-up that will unite on one dancefloor the artists who lead the way in their respective genres.
After many moons Sound Noir is proud to present the third installment in our podcast series. Have a listen to our resident DJs: Andrey Radovski and Amaury Arias aka Helping Hands.

Hello!
We are starting a whole new season of events that would feature a carefully chosen selection of our favorite artists – both well known and as-of-yet relatively obscure. As the spotlight of our parties will be first and foremost on the guest performers, we invite you to kick the series off with a free party helmed by our distinguished residents Lenny, Hands and Jacob. Come celebrate with us in the cozy basement of LaZarza – one of the very few smaller venues that live up to our sound standards. This one is on us and open to everyone:)
We are also going to celebrate Frank’s birthday
SN party will be DOWNSTAIRS!

With ice crunching under your feet, what better liberation than with memories of a rooftop, torrential downpour then double rainbows taking you into the evening.
Last summer on June 27th, we came together on a Bushwick rooftop to celebrate the birthdays of Kelly, Andrey and Ray.
After a torrential downpour, the sky opened up and blessed us with double rainbows.
To help remember the event if you were there, and to incite you if you weren’t, we’ve posted photos from the event.
Hello again!
This Saturday night Sound Noir DJs are playing at Essential – a Manhattan loft happening, which is both an art show and a dance party – everybody wins!

Signup for the reduced list is now closed. $20 cover at the door. See you tonight!
Hello, we are back!
This time we want to give summer sunshine another chance, without letting go of our favorite dark night.
2 of the most unique US producers/DJs out there will be playing with us day and night.
For the past few years Dave Aju from San Francisco has been walking the line between weird and wonderful by the way of jazzy with his productions – which has rightfully landed him on the mischievous Parisian label Circus Company and led to the very famous Luciano remix of “Crazy Place” – a single taken from Aju’s conceptual album pieced together entirely of vocal samples. Take that acapella-haters! Fear not though his set will include much more than vocalizing:) http://www.myspace.com/daveaju
Kris Wadsworth on his part churns out some of the most distinct and powerful tracks coming from Detroit these days. At just 24 years of age he has mastered his native town’s gritty sound and infused it with a dose of subdued beauty that made them so popular with just about every deep DJ and quality labels like Swiss Morris/Audio, French Adults Only and German Poker Flat. Unlike many of the newly converted pseudo-D producers Kris forgoes all the dross and instead concentrates on extra-tough beats supplemented by melodic depth charges to make for tracks that seem to hit you in the sub-conscious. I could go on and on as Kris really made some of my favorite tracks of this and last years but let the music do the talking, hit the link. http://www.myspace.com/thedepthsof
The latest awesome addition to the line-up is Montreal resident MOSSA. Both his classical/jazz music training and his early obsession with hard-core is showing in his daring electronic compositions that have been released on such influential labels as Cynosure, Mo’s Ferry and Circus Company. First and foremost a DJ, his sets are bursting with energy and sounds that are anything but predictable. http://mossamusic.free.fr/
Our own NYC-town will be represented by Anton Esteban – resident DJ of the 5-year-strong disco/leftfield party No Ordinary Monkey. After experiencing their amazing dance-out last Sunday in WBurg’s Grand Ferry Park we are looking forward to hearing more of that magical psychodelic goodness from Anton’s crate. You’d better be prepared to traverse the outer space! http://www.noordinarymonkey.com/
Residents Lenny de la Posso of Thema ( http://www.neoday.net ) and Helping Hands will be present in high spirits to further define the Sound of Noir.
$10 on the list; $20 at the door
We would like to see you there, dancing;)
This Saturday we are going to celebrate birthdays of 3 crewmates (namely Andrey, Kelly and Ray). The festivities are going to take place on the rooftop of 250 Moore St in Brooklyn 11206 and will include among other things DJ sets by Helping Hands, Lenny de la Posso and Frank Olivo with surprise 
) appearance of Terrence Dixon from Detroit and Alex Dirtt. We will also have impromptu shelters to protect you from the possible rain or shine.
If you are reading this then consider yourself invited. This is on quite a short notice but hope to see you there nevertheless;)

Summer is here and we’re still living off where we left each other. So we might have been a little sunstruck and are posting these pictures from our second party just now. We’ve pulled together images from several photographers and want to finally share them with you.
