Baby's All Right is obviously popular, but their booking is really good -- can waltz in there any night and hear good tunes. The Lot Radio is a gem and same thing, their curation is what makes it. The Broadway is just a straight up spot
It’s no secret that the triangular parcel of land known as The Lot Radio is Brooklyn’s best warm-weather hang and a key hub of New York dance culture. Opened in 2013 and run by Francois Vaxelaire and Pauline La Mell, the site features a DJ booth/shipping container known to host thee most legendary producers in dance music. On any given day, you can relax in the sunshine with friends and a bottle or coffee while listening to artists, critics, record shop owners, or producers mix live on air— or, if you’re lucky, stumble onto a set from Octo Octa, Nick León, or Honey Dijon.
Nestled in an old hair salon off the Montrose L, Billy’s Record Salon is the perfect place to go find rare and interesting records for a good price. Billy’s is run and curated by Billy Jones, the owner of New York music venue, Baby’s All Right, who has fantastic recommendations on what to listen to. I highly recommend carving out a chunk of time on a Sunday afternoon to listen to music, browse, and chat with Billy.
since you’re in BK it’s probably right around the corner from you! I recommend: 2lanes (Seen him twice), Objekt, Theo Parrish, Byron Yeates, Ron Like Hell (amazing dj), Akua, Or:la, livwutang, Physical Therapy
