Steve of Open Crates troops from Jersey City to Brooklyn to see Pat Van Dyke & John Robinson get busy at The Brooklyn Museum First Saturdays for the release of their Modern Vintage album. 

In BK fashion, the museum was deep in rhythm with JR on the mic, PVD leading the band, Melinda Camille crooning melodies and a cast of special guests around the stage. 

Halfway through the set, Shabaam Sahdeeq (Rawkus, Soundbombing, you should know) and El da Sensei (Artifacts, tags all over Jersey, you should know again) , dipped in twin Polo Rugbys, grab the mic to perform the album cut Vinyl Is Forever. 

And as expected, three lyrical Gods can’t get off without a freestyle session … one that brings Homeboy Sandman out of the audience to flip verses over the band workin' out Bob James’ classic "Nautilus". 

When the cipher ended, Steve immediately texted Pat to cut a side of Nautilus and flip Love You Inside Out (just cuz he loves that record) with Melinda Camille. Re:Crates was born.
