In an AI world, what you do is far more important than what you prompt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tBurwoodland, founded by co-CEOS Alex Badanes and Ethan Maccoby, has built its business off of affordable live events centered around genre-based DJ sets. Emo Night Brooklyn is tailored to pop-punk and emo music, Gimme Gimme Disco is ABBA-inspired and Broadway Rave tailors to musical theater fans. The company\u2019s sold over 1.5 million tickets, Burwoodland said, and other strategic investors in the company include music industry vets like manager Izzy Zivkovic and concert promoter Peter Shapiro.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cEthan and I started this company because we know firsthand how powerful it is to find your people through the music you love,\u201d Badanes said in a statement. \u201cThat sense of community shaped our lives, and creating spaces where others can feel that connection has always been our purpose. Having the confidence of an investor as respected and accomplished as Mark is a tremendous honor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAs Maccoby added: \u201cNone of this would be possible without our team. For a group as small as ours, their creativity, passion, and relentless dedication are the driving force behind everything we do. I\u2019m incredibly proud of what we\u2019ve built and excited for what\u2019s ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mark Cuban\u2018s putting some money on pop-punk, as the billionaire businessman has made an investment in Burwoodland, the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":100057,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,45931,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-100056","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-mark-cuban","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100056","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=100056"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/100056\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/100057"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=100056"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=100056"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=100056"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
