Fish56Octagon

New York loves chaos, and on Saturday, November 8, we’re getting a full serving of it when Fish56Octagon lands at Webster Hall. If you’ve ever found yourself deep in a 2AM scroll watching a bald British man in a dressing gown passionately mix old-school rave records in his kitchen—congratulations, you’re already part of the Fish universe.

Fish56Octagon didn’t follow the standard DJ route. No mysterious boiler room debut. No shadowy techno photo shoots. He was a marketing guy and car insurance TikTok guy who accidentally became a rave sensation by sharing music he genuinely loves and explaining why it bangs. His videos broke through not because they were polished, but because they were real. And real travels fast.

In the last year he’s gone from domestic DJing in slippers to festival stages across the UK and Europe. He’s closed tents at Creamfields, delivered emotional nostalgia at Glastonbury, sold out clubs across the UK, and now he’s finally making his mark in New York. Expect anything from speed garage chaos to euphoric trance, rave relics, renegade basslines, feral drum loops, psy trance freakouts and emotional moments sparked by vinyl that hasn’t seen daylight since 1998. He’s an unpredictable selector with a mission: remind everyone why they fell in love with dance music in the first place.

Joining him is Jev, setting the tone before Fish takes us into the neon wormhole. Doors open at 11PM and we’ll be rolling late — this isn’t a “pop in for a few drinks” situation, this is a full night out. The crowd? Friendly misfits. Party lifers. Curious rave historians. Chaos tourists. Normal people who just want a laugh and a good mix. If you think dance music has gotten a little too serious lately, this night is your antidote.

Saturday, November 8. Webster Hall. Ages 19+. Dress code: whatever makes you feel alive. Dressing gowns optional but welcomed. Bring your crew and your best stamina — Fish is bringing the fun back to the dance floor.
