On the move again in New York City, this time we picked the hipster stronghold part of Brooklyn named Williamsburg. Living just a 10 minute stroll from the Bedford stop off the L, commuting to and from home you can always catch a struggling artist playing a guitar and signing on the streets or at the subway station just to do it or for donations. All the walls and sidewalks are covered with art, posters for shows or Fools Gold Records and Trouble & Bass stickers. The food options in the area are great! Stop by Oasis right when you get off the L at the Bedford stop for an amazing low cost falafel or head south on Bedford to Grand St., hang a right and keep going till you see the water for a great view of the Manhattan skyline and the Willimasburg bridge.
Keeping with the theme of this post I have some tracks courtesy of NYC Trouble & Bass label along with some pics from another NYC local.

I was also wanted to share some AMAZING pics taken by my good friend Ian from Depressed Billionaires who has been recently working on photography. You may remember a previous post that has drawn a lot of attention to his music project with their Pink Sheets EP that was coincidently put out on the Acid Jacks Idiot house label. Hope you enjoy the music & pictures.
