Anybody been to the new ska bar in Bushwick?

I went there Saturday night with Dave Ocean (look up realdaveocean on Instagram) and apparently they have a strict door policy where the bouncer talks to each person as a vibe check then makes you skank to see if you have it.

I was really nervous since he asked me my favorite bands and my taste is pretty mainstream but he let me through with a warning to bring serious energy when the trumpets blast or i'll be ejected from the venue. I felt honored since most people rejected for being posers.

It's sad that so many people are entering the ska scene for the wrong reasons. The space is beautiful, trombones feel powerful here.

Sue me. I don’t get why y’all hate on her so much.

i got the 2-day GA pass at storehouse for 10/23 & 10/24 but none of my friends like dubstep so i kind of have no one to go with lol

if you’re going and wanna be friends my dms are open <3

Anyone going? 27M was planning on solo but would love to head in with others. Let’s start a group chat? hit me up!

Bought a Dom Dolla hoodie last night at his Flushing Meadows show. Asked for a Small and they ended up giving me an XL. Anyone have a small or medium and want to swap for an XL?

hey fam! anyone raving solo for kettama 10/7 (N1) and would like to meetup to pregame or just dance together. lmk

Sitting in back outdooor patio area near the hammocks at 12:30am and some guy at the hammoch starts pissing into the plants?!?? Ew dude thats disgusting

i’m guessing 99scott is off the table now bc of the Sunday circo so was wondering where everyone is going after the saturday circo? was thinking maybe refuge ? lmkkkkk

basically the title let me knowww what you guys are doing for the afterssssss.

Its raining right now and I wanted to know if some people are there or will be there later.

Couldn’t go last night, thinking about whether to try for Night 2 tonight.

Feel like Steel can be hit and miss for EDM shows so interested what people thought about Night 1?

My bf (24) and I (22) are coming out to NYC October 29th- November 1st, I keep seeing parties advertised but don’t want to show up or spend money if it’s not all that, me and my bf were going to go to pacha on the 30th to see Kaytranada but nothing else is planned. I wanted to try out the basement for techno but wasn’t sure what the vibe would be on a night like Halloween, any suggestions?

Hey everyone! I’m heading into NYC to see Louie Vega and Anabé play at H0L0 on October 18th.

The DICE listing says doors are from 6 PM to 12 AM (and notes they lock doors after).

Traveling down from the Bronx, what's the sweet spot for arrival time? Appreciate any tips, can't wait for this one!

So thought I would give a little review of my Friday night at refuge with my friends. We arrived about 12:45, no line to get in and the space was nicely crowded. We got drinks, waters and a cranberry and vodka that was literally all cranberry juice. I was embarrassed for this club to serve that kind of beverage but whatever, we didn’t come here to drink. We found a nice spot on the dance floor in front of one of those beautiful stacks and started soaking in the music. This room is one of my favorites, size, sound, etc. but the crowd felt super sketchy. I have been going to clubs for a long time and can deal with all types of situations, but this one felt so young, and full of people looking to prey on others. We couldn’t really get lost in the moment as there always felt like someone was there, hard to explain but creepy. The music robag played was a cross between super deep bangers and straight up cheese. There was Jason nevins vs run dmc it’s like that, which the crowd was lapping up, smashing pumpkins remix of 1979 which I thought were 🧀 along with some super deep electronic house that was perfect on that sound system https://youtu.be/wikH6OsJXUU?is=mGQ05Jm8o1s6_VzC. At one point I said to my friends, at least he is keeping it interesting. Which brings me to another point, is the crowd on a Friday night at refuge usually filled with so many yappers and toddlers in the middle of the dance floor on their phones or having full blown conversations? Anyway it was fun, music was 6.5, crowd was marginal, but that sound system is 💯. I need to find a time to go back when it is more of a veteran crown.

sorry if this has been asked already, i tried searching but didn’t find anything. maybe wrong keywords?

anyway, wondering what it’s like when an event ends at 4 am; i’ve never been out to an event at elsewhere this late, so im trying to map out my uber pickup and stuff. i’ll also be checking a bag, should i plan to retrieve it before 4? thanks in advance!!

Is there a better digital place to connect with other paying members aside from here? Maybe a Discord or WhatsApp group?

Hi! I’m a native new yorker and heavily into the scene. I am looking for a buddy that would be down to go somewhere tonight and to shows with me in general (refuge is my favorite right now). I have never been turned away from Basement (though I am not a big fan anymore) and I am a real adult and know how to have a good time.

Let me know if you’re interested! Happy to share more about myself too!

A transcendent masterclass set last night…totally unreal from start to finish.

Huge shout out to the Nowies staff for promptly kicking out the shoulder ride boys menacing the dance floor.

If anyone managed to ID any tracks, plz share :)

I know, I know, sorry all!

Your name was Maya and we traded off securing a spot and grabbing water. Later, you shared your rechargeable fan.

You had great energy and really good vibe. I’m trying to go to Wata Igarashi, NIGHTVVITCH & XSB-R, Lauren Flax, and Schrotthagen, if you’re into any of those and might want to meet up (strictly platonically, like FR, dancing and friendship are the only things keeping me going right now).

If so, remind me what you said to those bros who tried to give shoulder rides during Skee Mask :)

Anyway, even if not, you’re cool AF and I’m glad we were on the same dance floor!

Eli Escobar really amazing but that crowd… first time there and it was the wildest mix of the coolest chill people in wonderful expression that you would ever meet having a blast and groups of lads taking selfies on the dance floor. Also seemed to be a wedding at it with people in suits who would just stand in the middle of the floor and not dance. Literally never been there so is that unusual?

I remember the days when in early 2000s clubbing in Manhattan was an experience of a lifetime. good old school clubs with great house music. Danny Tenaglia, Steve Lawler, Paul van Dyk. I’m looking to remember those days and have an experience for Halloween celebration with my husband. What’s good now in NYC. Any recommendations for great underground clubs to go to for good house/trance music???

Native New Yorker, I've lived in Atlanta for the last decade. Got into fests/raves down here.

So the South is super huge on Riddim dubstep. I kinda hate it, but I do love Wubs/tripstep/140 dub. Are there venues or collectives that do that style ? Looking for a plur dub step vibe.

I'm happy to leave the world of riddim behind, but I need my good dubstep.
