Walking into the loft, nestled amongst the industrial buildings east of the Morgan L train stop, I am not only greeted by Tobin Polk (co-owner alongside Lance Schnorenberg) and Aric Carroll, self-described “task master,” (aka operations manager) but also by Charlie the cat and the faint sound of a needle pressed on a warm folk record playing in a carry-on turntable

Before I say anything about our crowdfunding campaign, which ended yesterday, I want to say huge THANK YOU to all of you! It’s an absolute honor and pleasure to be a part of this community

Are there any underground parties left in Bushwick? Sure there are! Crème de la crème of NYC electronic music may be hidden from the all seeing eyes of the Internets but it is thriving!

A spectacular fan routine. Two hot days and nights of heavy drinking, nipples, genitals, a wedding, drugs, sweaty wigs, lip syncing, heavy beats, hardcore rifts and exuberant dancing.
