If there is one thing New York City is known for, it is its endless amount of fantastic types of music scenes that one person can indulge in.  In recent years, something that continues to be on the rise here in NYC is the EDM scene, as that particular type of music gels well with a huge audience, both on and off the Billboard charts.  So it comes as no surprise that a huge live music event that is happening next week has a great EDM background with some fantastic performers to go along with.  This event is called Maxximize, and it is happening at the world famous Hammerstein Ballroom next Saturday, February the 13th.

Allure Day Spa & Hair Design Lights Up Midtown East

by Ryan Shea

I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, and in that whole process one thing can actually lead to another.  In this sense, it has do with an amazing spa location that I recently discovered last week.  I was asked to write an article on this app called LookBooker, which is essentially the OpenTable for Salons throughout NYC.  After writing the article, I glanced through what was available as I was looking for some treatments and a new spa to call my own.  One of the first ones that showed up was Allure Day Spa & Design, located in the heart of Midtown East and a mere two block walk from the 53rd/Lexington Avenue stop (convenient!).  Since discovering them, I have been back twice and really enjoy the experiences that Allure provides.

Nostalgia in Brooklyn- DUMBO Photography

by Mark Giarrusso

Under the Manhattan Bridge

Any native New Yorker will tell you that there is a certain nostalgia that permeates through Brooklyn. Yes, we may reluctantly admit that hipsters have brought a certain “cool” back to BK however, for a lot of us that were raised in NY the essence of Brooklyn goes beyond a bad mustache, know it all attitude and skinny jeans. It’s where out fathers and grandmothers grew up and where our great-grandparents settled after coming through Ellis Island. Next time you take a walk through an area like DUMBO try to imagine it through the hardworking New Yorkers from all over the world that came to Brooklyn and are the original producers of BK slickness.

by Danielle Flocco
