Nowadays: Eamon Harkin and his New York dance scene innovations.

The final episode of Season Two of CenterPieceNY can be listened to here.

It explores the world of renowned DJ, Eamon Harkin, from Derry in Ireland, and his innovations with his business partner and fellow DJ, Justin Carter, in New York City's dance club scene. 

Here are the sections of Brooklyn and Queens referred to in the episode:

Eamon and Justin call their club Nowadays.  The goal is to make it as inclusive a space as possible, and to reflect New York in this moment, not to harp back to some bygone era.  As Eamon says, "This is the only time we live in, right? We gotta make the most of it. So, right now, right here, is what it's all about."

Here are some pictures and links to videos that will give you a taste of Nowadays.  You gotta love the grunge vibe of it all! (Though behind the fences and walls, the decor and design is top class!)

Cameras are not permitted on or near the dance floor but these two short videos can give you a sense of the vibrancy of a dance event at Nowadays, both from a recent Mister Sunday party.

We recommend you get to Nowadays, this summer or whenever, for Mister Saturday Night, or Mister Sunday.
