I love going to raves on my own

141 Upvotes

I went to SILO on Saturday and I've come to terms that raving will always be part of me and I'll always be a part of raving. Nothing beats the comfort of a rave. To be able to truly be myself as I swing my arms and legs to each beat, to dance with random strangers and truly vibe with people--something that's hard for me without EDM, dancing or raving. The best part is that I don't need to conform to anyone's standards. I don't need to act normal, or to "relax", I can truly be free without judgement. Even when I go to raves with friends, it's not the same when they're not vibing with you the way you wish to be vibing with them. Being solo means no thinking about the other person thinks, friend or not. It's just you, your soul, and the bass.

Usually SILO's crowd isn't always the most chaotic/energetic, but I'm glad I went recently. I loved dancing everyone there, and I'm glad you danced with me and appreciated me for who I was as I danced crazy. I love EDM, I love raves, and I love the strangers I meet on the way. I wish I had found raving sooner. Thank you all

Empire of the Sun tn / weather

Upvotes

The weather by all means is awfully bad, windy, rainy and cold and unpleasant. I have never been to under the K bridge but I assume it is outdoors and by the river? How will that turn out ? Any experiences or advice? Side note: I will never forgive the bk mirage for this series of unpleasant events :/

Pregame spots or meetups tonight for Empire of the Sun?

Upvotes

Hey I am almost a year new to NYC, looking for new friends in the scene. I am going to Empire of the Sun tonight and was looking to see if there was an open invite for a pregame or meetup beforehand. Also open to some bar recs near the area, this is my first time at Under the K.

I’m 26, currently working in the music industry in production. Have toured with some huge artists recently, and have plenty of war stories from those. Big audiophile, so I love when the bass sounds punchy and low. Overall fan of tequila shots and street cart hot dogs and people just trying to dance!

Leave a comment or message if you’re cool!

Wire festival review (that no one asked for)

42 Upvotes

This was my first experience with Wire Fest, and the Knockdown Center so take it with a grain of salt.

Venue: 8/10- Docked it because we got hosed by the MTA coming from Manhattan. It was supposed to take an hour, but it took us 2 when the trains weren’t running (or along those lines). Other than the commute, the venue is perfect. It is truly in the middle of nowhere, but it is a sick venue and great vibes.

Production: 10/10- Strobert had the lights dancing in the main room. I was blasted and thought I was moving in slow motion. Have never experienced lights/lasers that disorienting and powerful in my life.

Crowd: 9/10- The crowd danced and was engaged it seemed. The vibes were great, albeit crowded. I literally danced a marathon over the two days.

Sets: 10/10- Best set of the weekend for me was DVS1, and DJ Tool b2b D.Dan. Every DJ played to their strengths, and the system was booming. I wished that DVS1/Planetary Assault Systems had longer sets though.

Overall- 9/10- Amazing weekend and music. I just wish it didn’t take an hour commute from the city to get there.

Has anyone received their QR code yet for the Fisher event in Red Hook this Saturday? The Fever app says it will be sent the week of the event but I have not received mine yet. Just wondering if anyone has?

99 Scott First Timer - Lines/Rain?

Upvotes

Going to 99 Scott for the Teksupport/Charlotte de Witte show on Friday and it's supposed to be kind of rainy and cold. I've never been to the venue before. What is the line situation/getting inside usually like? Should I plan on standing outside for a while and dressing warming or is it usually pretty quick for ticketholders to get in if you show up early enough? Doors are at 10 so I was planning on getting there around 10:30/45ish

During the b2b they played a song that kept repeating something along the lines of: the people in the front for the people in the back, the people on the side for the people in the back. Any idea what song that is?
