Get ready for three-days of music spread across 5 stages Friday, September 1st through Sunday, September 3rd, 2023 at Randall’s Island Park. Electric Zoo, also know at EZoo, is known to be a festival lovers dream. Here’s few tips to from an EZoo veteran that will take your experience from good to great. 1) Purchase a Mobile Charging Locker. Charge your phone and safely store your items in a Mobile Charging Locker. This is definitely worth the investment! 2) Wear bright clothing, nothing dark because it will be hot in the sun. Think bright,…

It’s been a long autumn. It was made longer without a premier nightclub on the South Shore. Stereo Garden is filling a much needed want, and we are ecstatic about that. Last weekend Stereo Garden kicked off their first of hopefully “house music“ nights. The light snow didn’t stop many many from coming out- and they were not disappointed. Long Island’s own DJ Razor (you remember Razor ‘n Guido) ripped up the dance floors. It’s been since the summer since I felt heavy bass and hard drops. Nothing puts me in a good mood like attempting to blow out my…

After a long weekend of drinking at places like Great South Bay Brewery, Eclectic Ales or Long Ireland we asked ourselves what’s the best hangover foods? This isn’t necessarily a list dedicated to foods that will make you feel better, but rather foods that we crave when hungover. Water is for amateurs- so lets not mention it. So crack open another beer (at this point why not,) prop your head up and lets go! 5- Soup dumplings. Soup dumplings (Xiaolongbao in Chinese) made this list because who doesn’t crave…

Aloha Freeport! There is a new addition to the Nautical Mile- Maui on the Mile. There is no better way to kick off the summer with International sensation, DJ Erick Morillo on the decks.Yes, Erick Morillo’s definitely in the house. This was the third time we’ve seen Erick Morillo- the first in an open air area. Morillo in this type of setting is amazing! He had his signature big Kool- Aid smile stretched ear to ear, the oversized headphones around the crown of his head and crazy decibels blasting through the impressive sound system. A little rain was not going…

Armed with a pair of Adidas headphones and a Pioneer mix board, legendary DJ Benny Benassi played an intimate show at TBA Brooklyn’s The Lab for Mix Magazine. Nights like these make icons. Benassi has been cutting up dance floors for close to two decades. We have seen hm at Governor’s Island, Electric Zoo, along with other venues. Whenever he comes to New York, we make it a point to see him. Benassi does not disappoint! Benassi behind the decks is like the Stones on stage. Every show is memorable. TBA Brooklyn is a converted garage located in Williamsburg. Mix…

“If you’re young and talented, it’s like you have wings.”- Haruki Murakami. The LIB team ha seen a lot of music in our time. Most of it is incredibly good. Occasionally it’s amazing. When it comes to native Long Islander SEE, talent has no bounds. We had the pleasure of checking her out at Amityville Music Hall this past weekend. See is different from most of the local musicians that dot Long Island. She is more mellow than most but very satisfying. It’s obvious SEE is heading for stardom. SEE is young and very talented. She does have wings. Playing…

Café life is a state of mind. It’s about knowing what is going on around you and taking it in- accepting it. It’s mellow, trance like. Café life revolves around good friends, great food, interesting conversation and something I just figured out- hookah! With seemingly hundreds of little cafes and coffee house Astoria, Queens is the epicenter of café life. Café Istanbul is primed to be the new leader! Istanbul, is known as a global crossroads. It is where the West (Europe) meets the East (Asia). Istanbul is known for it’s unique culture and style. Café Istanbul is also a…
