Best of NYC #41: Ninjasonik – Live at Battery Park, June 26

We continue our "Best of NYC Countdown", covering every day one of the artists that made our Year End Best of NYC list (a chart compiled by a jury comprised of local bloggers, music writers, promoters, record store personnel and DJs).

If you are a regular Brooklyn party goer chances are you’ve probably seen DJ Teenwolf, Bathroomsexxx and Reverend McFly somewhere. This is Ninjasonik; three fun, party-loving gentlemen that embody everything there is about Brooklyn. Best buds with Matt & Kim and Japanther, their influences preeminent on the album (“Daylight” and “Silver Tiles”) are sampled on Art School Girls. Art School Girls is track-after-track of funny rhymes and catchy beats – perfect for creating wacky viral music videos. Find “Somebody Gonna Get Pregnant” on Youtube and prepare to giggle and nod to heavy beats. This year they are playing the River to River Fest at Battery Park on June 26, which promises to be a lot of fun. – Nicholas Palumbo
