1Market HotelMarket Hotelindie, punk, experimental1140 Myrtle Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11221Brooklyn, NYloft-party energy, trains rattling past the windowsthis place is the OG — above a fruit stand, no frills, feels illegal in the best way. if you know you know
2Sultan RoomSultan Roomindie, world, DJ sets234 Starr St, Brooklyn, NY 11237Brooklyn, NYinside Turk's Inn, ornate but chilli've cried to a shoegaze opener here — sound system actually respects the bass, rare for a bar-venue combo
3TV EyeTV Eyenoise, punk, no-wave revival1206 Myrtle Ave, Ridgewood, NY 11385Ridgewood, NYdim, sticky floor, earplugs mandatoryridgewood's answer to the old market hotel chaos — bands i've never heard of that turn out to be someone's side project from a band i DO know
4ElsewhereElsewhereelectronic, indie, touring acts599 Johnson Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11237Brooklyn, NYmulti-room warehouse, rooftop bar for decompressingbigger than my usual haunts but the rooftop between sets is where i've had the best overheard gossip of my life, no exaggeration
