SILO

SILO Brooklyn emerges as a pulsating hub in East Williamsburg’s nightlife, blending Tel Aviv’s late-night energy with Brooklyn’s eclectic vibe. Housed in a repurposed airplane hangar at 90 Scott Ave, this intimate 500-capacity venue offers a departure from megaclub crowds, prioritizing immersive experiences over sheer scale[4][5].

Vibe & Atmosphere
The space features industrial-chic aesthetics with high ceilings, creating an airy yet intimate setting. Aerial performers often twist above dance floors on hula hoops or silks, while a world-class sound system pumps hypnotic house music[4][5]. Unlike typical Brooklyn clubs, SILO embraces a Tel Aviv-inspired rhythm: nights here peak after 1 a.m., encouraging guests to treat the entire evening as a layered experience—pre-gaming at nearby spots before diving into dawn[4][5].

Events & Music
Weekly programming caters to diverse tastes:

• Open Decks (Wednesdays): Emerging DJs like STEEN and Keilah showcase experimental sets[1].
• Pride celebrations: The annual THEMFATALE party (June 27th) headlines queer electronic acts like Wreckno and Moore Kismet[2].
• Weekend headliners: Artists such as Ana B and KXAH blend global beats, from techno to Afro-house[1].

Ownership & Vision
Founded by Alex Neuhausen, a Jewish musician-turned-entrepreneur, SILO reflects his admiration for Tel Aviv’s communal nightlife. Neuhausen emphasizes curating “bold flavors” of sound and performance, mirroring the city’s ethos of turning nights into shared adventures[4][5].

Criticism & Response
While most reviews praise SILO’s creativity, a TripAdvisor user criticized door staff and drink quality[3]. Regulars argue these are outliers, noting the club’s focus on artistry over conventional bar service.

For those seeking a Brooklyn nightlife experience that prioritizes intimacy, artistry, and global rhythms, SILO redefines the after-hours journey—one aerial flip and bass drop at a time.
