about halcyon...
This September marks Ten years that the good people of New York City have been feeling the halcyon experience - joyful, carefree and serene. They've felt it lounging at halcyon 'classic' on Brooklyn's Smith Street, browsing at halcyon the shop in Dumbo, dancing all night to halcyon DJs and grooving on-the-go to halcyon downloads. Indeed, from one venture to the next, halcyon has evolved, exploring new spaces and spinning fresh mixes of urban culture, community and commerce; but no matter the manifestation, the feeling people get from the halcyon experience remains unchanged... can you feel it?
