Sat, 10/3: The Binary Marketing Show + Dinosaur Feathers + Andrew St. Aubin (of Aldenbarton) @ Fort Useless (STEREOACTIVENYC)

We’ve been busy: Fort Useless, Show on Saturday, CMJ Showcase Info Soon!

Perhaps you’ve noticed that updates on this website have been sporadic for the last few months? Or perhaps you didn’t? Who knows?

The reason updates here have been less frequent than they used to be is that we’ve been in the process of setting up our new headquarters at Fort Useless. Fort Useless is a new DIY-ish space in Bushwick organized to feature live music, as well as other sorts of performances and art. StereoactiveNYC put together the first show there back at the end of August, featuring some amazing local musicians playing: Sharon Van Etten, Jared Friedman (of Holy Moly! and Man In Gray), Gabriel Miller-Phillips, El Jezel, Kristies Redfield (of The Song Corporation and a new forthcoming project), and Manny Nomikos (of Coyote Eyes). It ended up being a very special day for us that exceeded all expectations we had going in… We took some photos of all the musicians, but, unfortunately, one negative consequence of our move is that some things have gone missing (temporarily, we hope), including cables for our camera that we use for transferring photos. Luckily, the wonderful Maryanne Ventrice was there and took some great shots.

We also, just last week, featuring a listening party for Gold Streets‘ new EP, Go, which also featured some interesting performances by the band and special guests El Jezel with new and varied arrangements of some of their music.

The next show at Fort Useless is this Saturday featuring a couple of bands we’ve really been enjoying a lot lately, The Binary Marketing Show and Dinosaur Feathers, along with Andrew St. Aubin (of old SANYC-favorite Aldenbarton). Here are details for the show:

Also, we want to make sure you know that even when we’re not generating our own content here on StereoactiveNYC.com, we’re usually featuring a rather steady flow of news and interesting items we come across on the StereoactiveNYC Tumblr and you can also get updates via our Facebook page and ourTwitter updates (there’s also the MySpace profile, but we’ve been dealing with that less frequently).

Finally, we’ll be sponsoring a showcase as part of the CMJ Music Marathon for the third year in a row and will be announcing details for that very soon!
