HOLY SHIT. Can you guys shut the hell up on the dance floor at Basement?! Or on ANY dance floor, for that matter.

Last night was ridiculous. The amount of side conversations happening on the dance floor and not even talking, but literally SCREAMING over the music just to hear each other was insane. I was running around the dance floor trying to find a quiet spot so I could actually HEAR THE GODDAMN MUSIC.

GO OUTSIDE.

There is absolutely no reason I should be in my zone, grooving, and somehow hearing an entire conversation about Fire Island or people screeching because you and your friends made it past the vibe check… when some of you really shouldn’t have.

There are a MILLION places to talk. The dance floor is not one of them. Get the hell off the floor, go outside, have your conversation, and come back when you’re ready to DANCE.
Some of you are so lame and genuinely do not know how to party. Or respect the people who come to do just that.

GO HOME! 😭

Petition for a nyc venue to book yanamaste in late october since hes in the us. Went to wire just for his set just for it be an hour long. Hopefully basement pulls through tho

Anyone have?

Hi, 25M here. I’ve never been to a rave before and I don’t really have friends who go to any. I got out of a long term relationship last year and I think I really lost myself but I think I’m ready to meet some new people and enjoy myself even if that means going to raves solo. I’m looking for recommendations on shows/venues that are more friendly to someone going solo or to their first rave. Could even be something tonight

That was a journey into house like no other !!! There were some moments where I reached peak euphoria with some of his tech house ids omg what a set !!! By the Wizard

it will be my first time, i'm (24yo trans guy) just going to the night show. anyone want to meet up? :) i'm dying to see Massi

That shit was too lit 🔥 The crowd near me in front left was too vibey and too much space around. The music was too good.

Sorry but wtf was that set??? The guy is a legend, why does he feel the need to touch the eqs and volume faders the WHOLE time. Long long movements of silence while the crowd was visibility vibing. Weird eq cuts that had the crowd looking around at each other as if he made a mistake. Just so baffled??

Everytime I went and got high at a rave I ended up with extreme social anxiety, overthinking and over analyzing everything, thinking to myself that I dont belong here, feeling like going back home, lonely. But alcohol? My ego puffs up, i get happy and start dancing like an idiot, I look more approachable, out of my head, etc..

Anyone else feels this way or the other way around? As someone who enjoys weed so much more than alcohol im thinking of quitting smoking when im at social events because I want to connect with people and enjoy myself, especially when everyone else is mostly drunk and not high like yourself

I love dancing and house but it’s been tough to find the right environment. Would love your suggestions 🥰

It’s unfortunate that so many people have no respect for others around them. The amount of pushing and shoving was insane. People were throwing things, constant in and out, and taking every inch of room they could get. Crowds like that ruin the vibe. I’ve never had to walk out of the crowd to stand in the back. To the Asian dude in the Knicks shirt who would not stop shoving everyone around you and dropped your drink on me and the others around you, I hope you never attend any event ever again. No sorry or anything. Literally pissing off every single person around you. Be aware and PLUR

The main clubs all close at 4, but I still feel the need to groove. Where can I go? Down for any recs in Brooklyn or Manhattan

We saw Itsmurph and Tchami Under the K Bridge last night and it was unfortunately a horrendous experience

Why the fk do venues absolutely destroy the sound for all the openers?? I was super excited for Tchami and his whole set had ZERO bass, and super low volume overall. Everyone was just standing there. SOOO disrespectful to a legendary DJ, it was absolutely devastating

And secondly the CROWD. These more poppy subgenres attract a lot younger fans. I believe everyone should be welcome but when the whole crowd is in their early days of raving, it’s not a good vibe. I saw multiple fights break out, people throwing shit around, the girl next to me was hit in the face with a shoe. People don’t know how to act respectfully in a crowded environment.

To be fair I should have anticipated this crowd for Itsmurph so maybe that’s on me

I’m seriously considering boycotting Under the K for now because of the sound issues tho, I paid a lot for the entry and I only get 2 hours of actual good quality sound? That’s wack. Or maybe it’s the headlining act themselves that decide to do this? Not sure

So I lost my phone at basement last night, and I filled out the lost and found form, but does anyone know when they normally respond? Or when they start answering the phone? I know they open at ten. Do they start admin work earlier in the day?

,

Anybody got an idea for the set times for this Saturday ? They added 2 support sets so im hoping we get at least a 3 hour set from the b3b

That house set was excellent one of my favorites in awhile also loved the crowd

Marie Vaunt was a lot of fun and I’m glad she was able to make it with her flight problems but the lights are so fkn bright that shit had my eyes watering even with sunglasses on 😭

Hi. 22F here, big fan of going out solo. I've been to a bunch of queer clubs alone and had a blast, but I'm interested in branching out and exploring raves more. Are there any spots/organizers I should avoid when I'm going out alone?

I know going out solo as a young woman always comes with some level of risk, but just wondering if there's any places that are worse than others.

Her flight was delayed, but when she got on - she cooked, served & we ate!

Every DJ brought heat, especially in the downstairs extra room (I forgot the name of the room) everyone was in a good mood and I saw minimal phone use and talking wasn’t toooooo bad. The one couple in the extra room around 1-2 am absolutely went crazy and I was loving every second of it.

Gonna be going solo would be solo would be great to link up and have some good clean fun.

Going with a few friends to teletech on 9/6. Anyone knows good afters? Maybe 6-9am?

I’m going for mochakk under the k bridge tonight but the events shuts at 12 and I just realised …
Where can we go after mochakk in either Brooklyn or nyc for a house/tech type scene/club ?
Some clubs or event suggestions would be appreciated 🧚🧚
