There was a South Moon Under bikini contest, hot techno music, and water water everywhere at the Wanamaker Wet Party at Yard's Park on Sunday. Go HERE for more pictures from this event.

It's supposed to be perfectly gorgeous outside this weekend, so spend it outside!

Have you gotten down with the dubstep movement at Dim Mak Studios yet? What was once and for many years an underground music style has exploded onto the mainstream in the last year in a big way. Like, even Britney did dubstep. We get it, it's kinda like a funkified techno with a heavier bass and probably sounds really cool when you're on drugs. Not that we'd know what that's like or anything, just if we had to guess. More»

On Saturday night the month of July literally went up in flames! Whispers and speculation that three of Brooklyn's cavernous warehouses would play host to an unashamed end of July bash turned out to be true via Life of Fire at the 3rd Ward. The forefathers of electro hip-hop, which included Afrika Bambaataa and the Egyptian Lover, shared a stage for the first time. Also in attendance: as many DJs as it took to keep a heavily tattooed crowd going for an exhilarating 12 hours! More»

Outdoor drinkers and toddlers alike flocked to MoMa's PS 1 installation on Long Island City over the weekend. On Saturday afternoon, the critically acclaimed Warm Up summer concert series welcomed Animal Collective, Vancouver's Babe Rainbow, Prince Rama and others to its indie sound-stage. Everyone knows that a concert series in NYC - we've counted 17 so far! - isn't a MoMa concert series without your average keg, kiddy pool, and schnazzy toddler... More»

This past Saturday, our eyes were opened to the Debbie Dayger (see: day+rager) on Debbie Trail in Hampton Bays, where the main event was bros vuvuzeling beers and techno dance-offs in the rain. After being in attendance for five minutes, we realized that the party's jargon was not dictionary sound by any means, and found ourselves adopting terms that, well, don't exactly exist. More»

Berlin's Berghain/Panorama Bar, widely considered Planet Earth's top nightclub, has teamed up with the heroic Bunker crew for a quarterly exchange program at Public Assembly. The bash kicks off May 21st. That sound you just heard was NYC's dance party underground fainting from excitement. More»

Pinning down New York's next "hot" neighborhood is a competitive sport. And for every prediction that misses the mark (remember the buzz around SoBro?), there's one that gets it right (the Times magazine placed its bet on Bushwick a year or two before mainstream hipsters rechristened it East Williamsburg). Could Sunset Park be next? More»

As if the opening of a Soho House in central Berlin weren't a sure enough sign of impending gentrified doom, a gleaming new airport opening next year hopes to bring respectable professionals and professions to the creative mecca and "financial and geographic backwater." More»

Members of New York's techno semi-underground are accustomed to falling off the grid for their midnight to noon dance parties. But a soiree over the weekend surprised even some vets of the scene when, for one night (and morning) it transformed a downtown synagogue's basement into the most rollicking club in the city. More»

Yesterday, Activision released DJ Hero, the latest in a wildly popular series of videogames (Guitar Hero, Rock Band) that let us drunkenly feign musical talent. Before you convince yourself of your spinning talent however, you should check out these legitimate NYC DJs as they get the club going. More»
