Guest nickjunkie Posted April 1 Report Share Posted April 1 I've been hearing whispers of some cool new spots up and coming across the bridge... What's the scene like over there? I've visited in the daytime a few times, but never partied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest joeygk Posted April 1 Report Share Posted April 1 THE LOFT PARTIES --- Brooklyn has been home to the sickiest aftahours scene in NYC -- I'm talking real hardcore afterhours ---- the place is just called "the loft" the location has changed twice since I've lived here in the city but the party is crazy ---- it's put together by the people behind robpromotions everyone from Tenaglia & Superchubmo have dropped by. Duplexx is becoming quite the deep house hot spot --- it's in the fort green area of Brooklyn - what is that Williamsburg?Bogaloo also throws down some killer weekday parties as well -- it's in Williamsburg -- caters to the Music Snob crowd -- last time I was there Tyrant - both Craig Richards & Lee Burridge were throwing down on a Monday night -- this was after their Saturday appearance at ARC. *Also, the smoking ban isn't really enforced in Brooklyn - so a lot of people don't mind leaving the city! Hope that helps. I usually don't make it out to Brooklyn unless I'm hanging w/ someone w/ a car --- the Loft Parties are HOT -- Craig Demo has been to them he can attest! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys are as lazy as I am ;Dhowever, those trains are constantly under construction and all screwed up. They just stop midway on the bridges and sit there....they take forever, they are infested with smelly people from brooklyn (God how I hate getting on the L in the morning...it is a brooklyn sardine can...) trust me, a trip to Brooklyn can oftentimes be a whole lot more than 5 subway stops...it can be hellish. but yeah, there are some really really nice neighborhoods in brooklyn. and there are amazing restaurants too. lots of russians too....so many russians.

It was kinda tough to find a decent one though huh?it is impossible to find quality mainstream radio for EDM here, at least in a taxi. Online, etc is a totally different story. And no taxis have XM radio or the likes, unfortunately. most drivers listen to AM radio stations broadcast by members of their countries abroad. That shit ends the moment i get in a taxi. i dont fare well with French-Moroccan news when ive had a few cocktails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest timoconnell Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 Right on! I'm back but then off to New Zealand for two weeks. I leave next Wednesday! I cannot wait. I will provide plenty of details and will upload NZ photos to my website when I get back...and there will be plenty photos, I can promise that. I tend to freak out when I see new nature.

I was kidding. But the bottom line, at 9:15am during the week, I get on the "L" train in the morning, and it smells like a can of tuna. PS, Westchester is one word.

Guest timoconnell Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Charles, great business card! I sent an email to that address today but it came back undeliverable...so I pm'd you instead.No Brooklyn sell out here! I'm diggin Brooklyn. Odor or not, it's a great place to be! Nah for real, people don't stink here...Ev your bias is coming from the homeless men you befriend on the L . While we're on Brooklyn...it's really not that far away either. Why do mad people think that? I travel in to Manhattan everyday and usually on the weekends too. Problem is I don't spend enough time here. Anyone up for those afterhour loft parties?

Anyone up for those afterhour loft parties?I know, everyone really does think of Brooklyn as so far away. Nothing is worse than Staten Island. I truly dont know how people live there....it is an island surrounded by ocean and the worst traffic wherever you try to go. That would be so claustrophobic to me...Brooklyn is cool, I like it. great food, fun people--definitely the best borough outside of manhattan.

Talk about longevity!!! My uncle used to go to that afterhours spot! And that was like 20-some odd years ago!!!! If it's the same LOFT you guys are talking about, then when i go back to visit NYC I gotta check it out. Is the Paradise Garage still around? I hear Larry Levan used to spin there before he passed.
