Market Hotel is the venue with the best accidental stage design in New York: a second-floor loft whose back windows look straight onto the elevated J and M tracks, so trains slide past behind the performer mid-set. pluko's melodic, texture-heavy electronic production is exactly the kind of music that gets bigger in a room like that. Get there early enough to claim a spot on the window side, which is where the show and the city line up.
What to expect
A raw loft space with a standing floor and windows overlooking the elevated tracks. Expect a young, dance-forward crowd and a sound system that fills the room. The venue is up a flight of stairs from Myrtle Avenue.
Good to know
- The J, M and Z to Myrtle Avenue stop directly outside the building
- The window side of the room is where the passing trains frame the stage
- The venue is up a flight of stairs with no elevator
- It is 21-plus at night with ID checked at the door
- The room gets hot once it fills; dress accordingly
- Bushwick food along Myrtle and Broadway stays open late
