When it comes to electronic dance-music, one would be hard-pressed to make the argument that Brooklyn is on a par with, say, Detroit or Berlin. But if Brooklyn wasn’t part of NYC, and was instead was an independent municipality (which was actually the case until 1898), it would be the country’s fifth-largest city. In an era where Boulder, Colorado, can have an electronic-music festival—that burg’s Communikey get-together is a damn fine one, by the way—surely the county of Kings should host its own fest. At least, that’s the thinking behind the Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival, which will be taking over the postindustrial arts space Old American Can Factory for a sprawling12-hour hoedown on Saturday 8.
