We deserve a well-soundtracked escape, and thanks to the brand new All Your Friends<\/u><\/a> party, hosted by Burwoodland<\/u><\/a>, we\u2019ve got one. <\/p>\n

The first installment of the indie-fused Dj-helmed night takes place on June 27 at Baby\u2019s All Right, with the same people behind Gimme Gimme Disco, Emo Night Brooklyn, Broadway Rave and Party Iconic giving us a night manned by indie mainstays Matt and Kim<\/a> and Passion Pit<\/a> and producer and journalist Kim Taylor Bennett<\/a>, who has been documenting the genre in written and video form since it first made a mark in the Borrough \u2014 a perfect line-up to purvey the millennial-core indie music that blessed airwaves and Brooklyn bars during the 2000s and 2010s. Get ready for a playlist of The Killers, MGMT, LCD Soundsystem, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, all of those iconic sounds that fuelled the glitter-filled nights that led to hungover mornings in Williamsburg.<\/p>\n

Matt and Kim told us that it\u2019s going to be a night filled with their own personal nostalgia. \u201cWe have so many memories playing in art spaces, apartments and random spots in Williamsburg in the mid-\u201900s,\u201d they said. \u201cThere was a community of music going on in Brooklyn at the time that was really special,\u201d Matt and Kim told PAPER<\/em><\/em>. \u201cI\u2019m not sure I even recognized how unique it was while I was there. Will be really fun to be back in the neighborhood singing along to songs from that time,\u201d they continued.<\/p>\n

Alex Badanes<\/a> and Ethan Maccoby<\/a>, co-founders of Burwoodland, are excited to be starting the party in Brooklyn, \u201ca hub for this genre.” “On a personal level, Ethan and I are deeply passionate about this genre. As millennials, we feel like we grew up with these artists and bands. I was at Berklee (and Ethan was at Tufts) while Passion Pit was coming up in the early 2010s, and I still remember seeing one of their first Boston shows, how electric it felt, how new it all sounded. That era shaped so much of our musical identity, and it feels like the right time to revisit it. So many of those albums are hitting anniversaries, and a whole new generation is discovering them, alongside a wave of exciting new artists carrying the torch. It’s also meaningful to be launching this alongside someone like Kim Taylor Bennett, who\u2019s been championing this world for so long.”<\/p>\n

Dig out your oldest American Apparel; it\u2019s time to relive indie music\u2019s glory days. The party starts at 11 pm on June 27. Free with RSVP Here<\/a>. See you there.<\/p>\n
