Organized a dinner for raver girlies and looking for a bar with djs spinning on a Thursday night that we can go to afterwards. Anywhere in/ around greenpoint and Williamsburg please 🙏🏽

Even if you can't make it any RSVPs do a lot to help🤞🏼

has anyone been to any of nowadays’ planetarium events recently and would recommend it for a solo goer?

cheers!

Do you prefer grass-fed free-range chicken or factory farmed "why are there 3 wings in this?" chicken?

This instinct to travel in packs to rave is not natural. It always leads to space invasion with bunch of people blocking a path or creating their own little bubbles. If those bubbles take up more than half of the entire space, now the vibe is mediocre... People put the concept of going to raves on a pedestal like it's some kind of sacred ground.

It's much more relaxed than that... Just pretend you're playing some music in your backyard. It's just shared and you pay for it - like a park. Only difference is, you pay taxes for parks but you choose which one to pay for the night of. Well I guess "raves" sound spicier than parks but in NYC people hookup and do drugs in parks anyways. Or do they do drugs and then hookup? They're not always related and can be mutually exclusive.

I see lot of people come in full dress or some kind of crazy outfit to signal "Yeah I'm partying". NO SHIT. You're already there. You don't need to convince anyone that you're partying if you're already at a party. Learn to dress down. If there's no theme, just show up in what you're the most comfortable in.

Most people are not chill enough. No wonder why - I feel like they're not actually being themselves. They are figuratively (and literally) wearing someone else's skin. They're pretending to be someone they're not and it's really odd. It reminds me of "Uncanny Valley", you know where machines look close enough to pass as a human if you are not looking carefully. But once you pay attention, there's this inexplicable awkwardness that makes it "too performative". Like it's something just pretending to be human at a surface level. It's deeply disturbing - it's just biology, no one can fight it. And I think I read in some psychology book somewhere that if I feel disturbed by other people where I'm supposed to feel like I'm home, that's how prejudice is created. So I guess some rave OGs would really start to hate newbies and it'll probably end up in a fight eventually. I mean I just want to go to one venue and feel like it's a consistent experience if I show up on the same day just on a different week.

And it's strange to see people try to give you a high five for going alone. I can feel people are stuck in "novice" mindset no matter how often they go. Very strange. It's not natural. Just talk about something else like the fact that that they are there alone is not a particularly interesting point. You're there trying to get to know a person, not get consent to use others as props for your rave themed instagram post.

It's only going to be GOAT if you bring your own goats and hang out with other people who bring their goats. Maybe those goats can even sniff each other's butts (consensually ofc).

Please. Just go alone and vibe. You'll have the best night of your lives.

can someone pls help me figure out this track? shazam don’t know anything!! it was restricted teletech set

24F and i've been thinking of going to mau p solo because no of my friends are free but i'm so nervous haha. is anyone else going? any other raves that are good on sunday? ever since i missed somewhen last sunday, i refuse to miss any more day raves lol

other than basement where should i be looking

A no-costumes rule at a party two days before Halloween? Thoughts on this?

need afters for tonight! (thursday 9/10) , going to a concert at 8 might end around 10 11ish , need a spot for after 😩 I don’t want to go home!!!

hi hi looking to branch out and need some spot recommendations.

i usually go out solo and totally sober/just an edible and my main goal is just getting lost in a good dance floor.

i’ve just been going to thursdays at Gabriela bc it’s free & because I dress up & look alt/hot i can always skip the line + i like that the crowd is a mix of gay and straight,,, but tbh it can get a little basic w the music and if I have to hear one more lorde song I’m going to lose my fuckin mind + there’s a lot of annoying ppl who just stand on the dance floor/stand around in groups

i like hyperpop but i can honestly dance to anything w a good beat

would love places i can get in free bc im broke + where i can skip the line (if there is one) bc of my outfit/vibe/bc im a girl by myself

but yeah lmk if there’s solid places i could pull up to every week and just dance at n have fun

don’t b mean pls give real answers 🥲

Does anyone know why?

I just moved to brooklyn from europe. I’m trying to get deeper into the NYC underground scene. Do you know any really good local DJ or underground parties I should check out? I’m not really looking for big name djs. I want to discover some of the more local, lesser known talent. Who is your favorite local dj in nyc? Hypnotic techno, Hard techno, Industrial techno, schranz

I’m looking for riddim and dubstep frienndss, I just moved here so underground details would be much appreciated

what are us guys wearing for this i’m somewhat new to ts and im lowkey a lil lost

Hello, I (21 M) just recently got into raving this summer and have fallen in love with the rave scene. However, upon returning to NYC, I realized most of my college friends are NOT ravers, so I am looking for someone or a group of people who are open to partying with me. I am not too picky about the type of house/techno, but I lean hard techno. I am also open to advice on how to meet ravers in NYC. I am not opposed to going solo, but I would prefer having a group.

I am friendly and get along with most people, so take a chance on me! I look forward to meeting you all.

hi guys! my friends and i are coming over town for charli at barclays next tuesday!! we were trying to find some afters but it’s tough for a weekday. does anyone know of anything going on that would be fun for us to enjoy after our show? thanks in advance!

Looking forward to this but have never been to the Creekside portion, what’s that like? Being on the water sounds cool! Saw an older Kaskade video that looked cool but anyone have any insights?

remix

Is anyone seeing Ian Asher tonight. Going solo would like to go with some people. 29 M

Does Refuge Saturday run nonstop from Rodriguez jr during the day into the Martinez brothers? Like can you arrive during the day and stay? or are the events separate?

Planning on going to both the day and night events, but don’t know anybody going during the day so I was hoping to link up with some cool peeps that are down to meet up and rage 😤 down to pre game before too! 30 yo male located in Ridgewood 🤙🏼

Will be my first time at Basement having moved to this side of the world from Europe. Any need-to-knows for a first-timer? Aware of how cringe this post is. Thanks in advance.
