TimeWarp NYC

First time at Timewarp was amazing, crowd was great and the vibes of the event in general were great. It was cool that they had a water refillable station though it was very slow lol other than that I think for the price of the 2 day event if you get tier 1 it is totally worth it. Afterparty was a bit overpriced in my opinion though I only went to the one on Saturday morning. Another thing I do wish they had was coffee!!! Specially at the afters. Anyway, as far as sets I really enjoyed Sven Vath, Patrick Mason, Indira, Camelphat, KDV, and the DJ Tennis b2b Jimi Jules. If I had to rank the sets I’d say my favorite was Sven Vath had never seen him before and he blew my mind. Here’s a clip from Sven’s set.

Funk Tribu was amazing, despite being at Musica!

Last night, my girl and I went to Musica to catch Funk Tribu. Now, obviously with the poor reputation that Musica has gained here and other groups, I had my reservations about possibly being within an influencer crowd and not seeing much dancing, being too crowded, or not having a good time.

Luckily, we hit the jackpot. Everyone was BUMPING and going crazy!!!

We got there around 11:45 PM and the line to get in was not long. We skipped the coat check, tied our jackets around our waist, and already started jamming to Casser, who was the second opener of the night. I honestly was shocked at how good he was. At this point, we had a good spot.

Once Funk Tribu got on stage, absolute madness broke out. Yes, there were quite a few phones at the open of the set, but you could tell that once he got the set rolling, everyone locked in and started going ham throughout the venue. Moving to the back upper deck was the move - everyone was truly there for the music and we gassed ourselves out until we ended. I’m glad to have been a part of FT’s US debut 🙏.

For a first-time experience at Musica, I hope we get lucky again with draw! I will say, this show not being promoted by Musica themselves probably saved a lot of true fans the headache of the typical night-life types I’ve read about here on numerous occasions.

bad apples :(

had an amazing night at time warp last Friday. I was there to see my favorite dj, Indira paganatto <3 was vibing and dancing with my friends near the front, when this man came up and grabbed me from the back of the neck and tried to pull me in to him. I was so stunned I ripped his hand off and tried to move far away and my friend asked him did you just grab her? And he said no and acted like he didn’t do anything. I didn’t want to kill the vibe or start a fight so I just let it go but it was violating. It sucks just trying to have a good time and these bad apples show up. Part of why I’ve stopped going out. the rest of the crowd vibes were p great and met some really sweet people. just frustrated and needed to vent.

Going to basement in a large group

I'm going to basement with about 12 other friends. I love techno but it's my first time there. I've heard their line policy is a bit difficult. I'm wondering if it would be better to split into groups of four or something?

Raves at NYC - December

Hey all,

A couple of my friends are coming to visit me in New York for Christmas and we really want to go to a rave and experience it for the first time. It's the first time for all of us.

We are students as well so we are kind of an a budget? Anything below 35 dollars works. Can you suggest us any rave that will take place between 21st Dec and 5th Jan 2025 that fits the bill?

I'm counting on you all. Thanks a lot.

Sara Landry coming back to Brooklyn, but at what venue?

Earlier today she announced her show here in Brooklyn. People in the comments already begging her to not host the show at the Mirage. She killed it at KDC earlier this year but storehouse would likely be a good fit. Thoughts?

Which venues have the best ventilation?

Yes I know this question is silly but I don’t want to catch hand foot and mouth disease

Anyone else get really sick from Time Warp night 1?

Long story short, I have hand foot and mouth disease, and based on the timeline I’m pretty sure it had to have come from Time Warp on Friday. This is a disease normally found/transmitted by children but parents rave too lol

If you get a fever, chills, have some night sweats, and a couple days later develop blisters on your feet and hands, that’s HFMD.

I hope none of you get this, this is pretty fucking brutal.

Visiting New York for NYE - overwhelmed by choices!

Hi there! We seem to be going down a rabbit-hole every time we try to research on where we'd wanna spend the NYE at in NYC. Our only criteria was good music and good vibes and doesn't burn a hole in our pocket! As you can imagine - the number of options that we keep seeing keeps increasing every time and we just get tired and shut down our search. When we start again, the number of options available is still high - they are just more expensive now!

So, as someone travelling to NY for the nye, we feel that we need to bite a bullet and pick a place and be just happy with it or else we might not end up doing anything. Anyone else been in a similar situation and managed to figure out?

Any recs for House Music show/clubs

The girls and I are looking for a strictly house music vibes place to go for our friends birthday. I’ve checked Edmtrain, radiate, RA, etc… but I don’t see any DJ’s we’d like to see for this Saturday Nov 30. Does anyone have any suggestions for clubs/spots that play a lot of house music ?

Music is a lifestyle and this is by far the best investment you’ll make into the future of your hearing.

Anjunadeep at AG. What to expect.

Hey everyone! I’ve personally never been to AG. From the posts on this sub it seems that it’s a shit show, but I was wondering if the vibes might be different for this event.

If anyone has some info on how the bathroom and coatcheck situation is usually like, please share.

Set times, closing time, weed pen policy, any info is much appreciated.

Finally, I plan to take the subway to grand central after leaving the venue. Any suggestions on streets to take/avoid?
Thank you!!
