Hugel at XS Nightclub

Artist Profile

About Hugel

Florent Hugel, born December 4, 1987 in Marseille, France, is a DJ and producer whose career spans multiple house music subgenres — from Latin house to tech house, tribal house to Afro house — with an internationally cultivated touring profile and some of the most-downloaded remixes in house music history. He began DJing at 16 in Marseille, inspired by Daft Punk, Carl Cox, and Laurent Garnier. His 2018 remix of 'Bella Ciao,' the Italian folk song popularized globally by the Netflix series Money Heist, became one of the year's most viral house music tracks and generated tens of millions of streams by reaching audiences well outside the typical club circuit. His original track 'Morenita' helped popularize the Latin house genre in international clubbing contexts, reaching peak charts and introducing his sound to festival audiences across Europe and the Americas. In 2024, he released 'I Adore You' — a collaboration with German DJ Topic and Iranian-Swedish singer Arash — which became another commercial success. His festival appearances include Tomorrowland, Ultra, and EDC. Hugel has collaborated with and remixed for David Guetta, Robin Schulz, and J Balvin. His Las Vegas performances at XS Nightclub and Encore Beach Club position him within Wynn Las Vegas's tech-house circuit: confirmed appearances include Encore Beach Club on May 1, 2026 (Cinco de Mayo), XS Nightclub on May 15, 2026 (EDC Week Friday), XS Nightclub on May 24, 2026 (Memorial Day Weekend Sunday), Encore Beach Club on July 4, 2026 (Independence Day), and Encore Beach Club on August 8, 2026 (DEF CON 34 Saturday, 11:00 AM daytime — peak DEF CON week demand).
