brooklyn Jazz Radio....(Posted June 2009)
Finding new music, especially jazz can sometimes be a struggle. With that, brooklyn Jazz Café has launched a new Internet radio station - brooklynjazzradio.com. Ultimately, our goal is to provide YOU access to the WORLD of Contemporary R&B, Jazz, Blues and all that it encompasses.

What is Internet Radio?
Well, sometimes known as webcasting, web radio, net radio, streaming radio and e-radio, Internet Radio is very similar to broadcast radio. It allows listeners to tune in to shows from their computer. Since it is streamed, listeners don't need to download anything to access the broadcast. Instead, they log onto a particular web site, in this case, brooklynjazzradio.com to listen in.

Our initial plan is to showcase independent music artists not available on mainstream radio and to offer a simulcast of live broadcasting from brooklyn Jazz Café. Other programming options will give listeners online a different experience. We hope to provide our listeners a new way to obtain news, information and music with an international flavor anywhere you can get access to the Internet.

What's new at brooklyn? (posted Dec. 2007)
brooklyn has opened it's latest vision for an expanded facility and additional amenities. With our new expanded space we will now be able to more effectively and efficiently offer banquet style and larger meeting spaces. However, our most dramatic addition is that of brooklyn's offspring "jazzy's place".  Still a part of brooklyn but providing offerings such as billiards, darts, stationary chess/checkers tables, shuffleboard, wide screen TVs for sporting events and yet another place to enjoy adult beverages as well as a fabulous covered courtyard.  ''jazzy's place" will complement brooklyn and its jazz format by providing alternative music such as blues, old school, neo soul and reggae, among others. "jazzy's place" is a great addition to the entertainment already offered at brooklyn, this unique concept fits well with the already established themed music and dinning area. The new facility "jazzy's place" is apart of brooklyn and can be enjoyed by all those who visit brooklyn.

brooklyn Offers Free Wi-Fi (posted July 2007) 
brooklyn Jazz Cafe has deployed a free Wi-Fi network which covers the entire venue. The network will be open to the public. The idea for Wi-Fi at brooklyn arose as a result of a desire to better serve our patrons, visitors and neighbors.  The Wi-Fi network ideally makes the venue more welcoming to visitors.  But, the network also provides us with a new channel through which we can communicate with our visitors.  We hope to explore the future possibility of providing special content through the Wi-Fi network - for instance, performances that may be simultaneously streamed in the public spaces, audio and/or video clips of performances, interviews with performers, etc. Those are very exciting options that we hope to explore in the coming months and years.
