SILO

What SILO does

SILO Brooklyn operates a single-location dance music venue and event space at 90 Scott Avenue in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. The venue originated as the Secret Loft underground party series in 2012 and was formalized as the permanent SILO venue in early 2023, operating Wednesday through Saturday nights (and occasional Sundays) under Silo Brooklyn LLC. Its core product is weekly event programming spanning Open Decks community nights, local collective residencies such as Techno Thursday and Lounge Sessions, and ticketed headline DJ performances across techno, house, bass, afro-house, and adjacent electronic genres.

The venue is differentiated by a professional-grade technical infrastructure that includes an 80,000-watt Danley sound reinforcement system with subwoofer extension to 22Hz, a center-of-dancefloor DJ booth equipped with Pioneer CDJ-3000, CDJ-2000 NXS2, Technics SL1000-MK2 turntables, and multiple Allen & Heath and Pioneer digital and analog mixers, a GrandMA 2 lighting rig with pixel-mapped LED arrays and X-Laser systems, and a three-projector Resolume Arena video system driven by a liquid-cooled RTX 3090 workstation. On-site 4K recording and professional photography services support artist content capture.

Commercially, SILO monetizes through five primary streams: ticket sales via the Dice.fm platform, on-site bar and food sales (chicken tenders, vegan nuggets, beverages), coat check and ancillary merchandise, premium table reservations for groups, and private event and venue rentals. Marketing is distributed through Dice.fm, Instagram, Twitter, Discord, SoundCloud, and the Behind the Booth Mailchimp newsletter. The customer base is a long-tail consumer audience of dance music enthusiasts and a secondary tier of private event bookers, with no disclosed enterprise anchor accounts or institutional investors.
