Hi,
new to the city, would like to know if some of you guys could recommend some good bar/club/place/music shop to go to or band/dj to keep track of to listen to some good electronic music.
dj battle, underground atmosphere, good behind blind door club club, and overall relaxed crowd enjoying good music!

thanks in advance,

I recommend hanging out at Starbucks. The DJ battles there are crazy.

I can't be closed! Last week I saw a very cool band there (forgot name), and their singer was in the video of X-Press 2 song "Lazy".

Perhaps here to start, Babar: http://www.timeout.com/newyork/

― zeus (zeus), Monday, 29 January 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

if the guy was requesting a scene with any specificity at all, maybe we'd be more willing to lend a hand

― cutty (mcutt), Monday, 29 January 2007 20:26 (nineteen years ago)

also the guy is new to ILX and NYC, you don't think he deserves a little hazing?

― cutty (mcutt), Monday, 29 January 2007 20:27 (nineteen years ago)

i was OTM at 7:25 PM

Read the Voice and the L Magazine for listings. Find cool shows. Go to them. Order alcohol. Make friends.

Or... skip all that and come all the way up the island to the best scene in NYC. Washington Heights.

Love,
Washington Heights
