This Weekend: The Flea’s Second Annual Superstar DJ Record Fair in DUMBO
by brooklynmodern | September 10th, 2009
The Flea’s Superstar DJ Record Fair returns Sunday, Sept. 13, and since it’s also Fashion Week, they’re combining it this year with a Vintage Fashion Bazaar.
This special one-day-only event will be held at The Archway under the Manhattan Bridge, a stunning new public space in DUMBO, and in the adjacent Pearl St. Triangle plaza. The event will feature about 30 record vendors under the Archway and 15 vintage clothing/accessories/jewelry dealers in the Triangle. Plus a few special Flea treats of course. Top Record Fair vendors include DFA Records, DJ Rekha, Def Jux Records, Other Music employees Bert Q and Mikey Jones, former Ave. A shop Etherea, music journalists Andrew Parks (Self-Titled), Doug Mosurock (Dusted), and Piotr Orlov (NY Times), DJs db, Dara, Ulysses, Selway, McBoing Boing, and of course the Flea’s top weekly record dealers. Fashion vendors include Vintage Loft NYC, I Heart NYC (former Nolita vintage boutique), Estate of Art Vintage Lifestyle, and Treasures + Pleasures (top vintage jewelry and handbags). The popular Record Fair game will be back, where every vendor can DJ on our sound system for 20 minutes, with every record they play for sale on the spot.
