Death By Audio

Death By Audio was a warehouse space on the first floor of an industrial building in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. It also shared the name of an effects pedal company that was based in the space.

The warehouse operated primarily as a work space for artists and musicians, but also functioned as a recording studio, effects pedal factory, as well as an art and music venue, which received generally positive reviews from critics.

The warehouse took its name from the boutique effects pedal company, Death By Audio.

Founded in 2002 by Oliver Ackermann, Death By Audio effects is a small handmade effects pedal company, providing effect pedals for bands such as Lightning Bolt, Wilco, Nine Inch Nails and U2.

Starting in the spring of 2007 part of the space had been used as a venue for underground music and art events. Artists such as Ty Segall, Dirty Projectors, Growing, Tony Conrad, Thurston Moore, R. Stevie Moore, Thee Oh Sees, Zach Hill, Paint It Black (band), Future Islands, Black Pus, Pissed Jeans, JEFF the Brotherhood, Hammerhead (band), Frank Sidebottom and Dan Deacon have performed at Death By Audio. The venue was run by Jason Amos and Matt Conboy.
