// GALACTIC MEDIA RECAP //
Tuesday, June 21 – Friday, June 24, 2011
************************************************
Oh man–if you were anywhere near here last week, you were without a doubt experiencing the monument of sounds expelling from every crack of 61 Wythe Ave. That’s right my friends–New Orleans funk masters Galactic were in the building for a four night stint that peeled paint & melted brains. The band wasted no time getting busy with tracks off of their most recent record, Ya-Ka-May, throwin’ down covers that gave the originals a run for their money & featuring some serious special guest-age including Warren Haynes, Scott Metzger, ?uestlove, Eric Krasno, Steven Bernstein, Chali 2na, Nigel Hall and Jamie McLean. And yes, we too have been sporting that open-mouthed look of awe ever since.
Get funky and share your photos & videos captured during the event on our Flickr & Vimeo groups!

What an unbelievable year 2010 was at Brooklyn Bowl. So amazing, we decided to put a video together to highlight the epicness.
Snoop, Kanye, MIA, Shadow, The Roots, N.E.R.D., Sharon Jones, Solange and B, Ziggy, Robert Randolph, 8 nights of Soulive ie Bowlive, Big Boi, The Disco Biscuits, LTJ Bukem. Dinosaur Jr, Matisyahu, Neon Indian, Q-tip, Tricky, Les Claypool, Galactic, Bill Clinton and countless, countless more graced our stage while the lanes slammed with high rollers and Blue Ribbon fried chicken overflowed from endless red baskets.
From Pitchfork Offline Festivall to the Brooklyn Brewery Local X Local series, Vimeo’s Eye Candy for Strangers to ?uestlove DJing just about every Thursday of the year, legendary Friday nights with Solange–the list of madness never ends!
Just wait till you see what 2011 has in store…
Much Love,
~Team BB

With the release of their sixth album, From the Corner to the Block, drummer Stanton Moore, bassist Robert Mercurio, sax/harmonica player Ben Ellman, keyboardist Richard Vogel, and guitarist Jeff Raines, reaffirm their standing as one of the funkiest outfits in the universe. From the Corner to the Block exposes Galactic’s organic grooves to an urban ear while still maintaining their essential funk aesthetic. Even with the different vocalists, the songs maintain a sense of thematic consistency. As Ellman explains, the rappers were each asked to write about a corner. “It could have been any corner,” The result isn’t just the grooviest, funkiest record of 2007, but perhaps the finest post-Katrina album to come out of New Orleans.
