BASEMENT
New York
BASEMENT is a dedicated electronic music club at 52-19 Flushing Avenue in Maspeth, Queens, within the Knockdown Center complex. It operates under its own name and programme, with a strong techno focus and house also represented in its bookings. The physical basement setting is part of the venue's identity as a place centred on dancing and listening. The club maintains its own event listings, resident information and podcast series, connecting the experience inside the room with the artists and musical communities around it. Its sound installation supplier describes a Funktion-One system and a custom lighting setup. Those elements support a programme built for the dance floor, rather than turning the larger complex's varied cultural calendar into a description of this club. Read the club's current house rules and the selected event information before arriving. The venue has its own entry conditions and policies concerning photography and behaviour. Tickets, doors and the artists appearing should be confirmed through BASEMENT's programme for the specific date.
