DJ Signify is an underground hip hop producer from Brooklyn, New York.

History

DJ Signify's first album Sleep No More, featuring collaborations with Sage Francis and Buck 65, was described as "hip-hop at its darkest and most chilling"[1] and earned him accolades as a "master beatsmith."[2] His second album Of Cities was similarly described as "dense, bleak instrumental hip-hop," reminiscent of Burial's Untrue and Tricky's Maxinquaye.[3]
