I got to thinking about the club scene, and remembering some of those classic nights in great venues ie. Nation, Twilo, Arc. With so many clubs come and go, any truely "it" clubs currently. The newest club that took my back was Dave Seaman@ LOVE NYC. Awsome sound, great crowd, dark fucking room:twisted:. I always ask DJ's favorite clubs and now rarely get the same response. Love to here from global clubbers and DJ's to what makes these clubs so special. Support your local club scene.

Re: Top Club nights?

umm, the sound system, the venue, and the crowd.

i got to see tenaglia and howells at arc on seperate nights in nyc. tenaglia for 9 hours, howells for 12...it was absolutely mindblowing. if anything, these clubs are so special because you can't see sets like that many other places....

Re: Top Club nights?

twilo, no doubt one of the best clubs. I was there one night when Misstress closed for Carl Cox. that was unbelievable. she gave one of the best sets I have ever heard. she drove the all club crazy.

Re: Top Club nights?

The main room @ Space Ibiza...

I wasn't smart enough to fly to New York and experience Twilo, and Arc. I always put it off, needless to say I don't put off going to great clubs anymore.

Re: Top Club nights?

Fabric room 2, sound in there is incredible. Its all brick walls, gives it a "warehouse" feel, even though its a totally state of the art system. Proper dark room, with a laser (or 3) above a stage (for the live acts) with the DJ to the side of the floor. Ive heard a very fitting description of "the dark rave tunnel" :D

And yes, main room at Space Ibiza is awesome. Saw sasha and junkie xl in there (2002)and it was crazy - would love to go back and see what theyve done with the club now.

Re: Top Club nights?

the guvernment in toronto with sasha and steve lawler going back to back in the main room then taking it up to the skybar till 11am spinning vinyl. i've seen so many great shows there, amazing sound.

Re: Top Club nights?

Bedrock@Heaven

Never went to a bad one. People so friendly, the music amazing and then top it all off with Digweed. Really cool club too, a few rooms i never knew exisited. As for the rave tunnel, room one at Heaven was the orginal imo, dirty as you like.

Did they like, umm... take any toilet breaks or any breaks at all?? I mean how does one do this? I had heard of 8 hour S & D sets at Twilo but 12 hours???

Re: Top Club nights?

ya they take breaks...just throw on a 9 minute track and head to the bathroom.

Re: Top Club nights?

Anyone remember the name of that club/bar down in San Diego that used to have an awesome breaks night once a month? The Brickhouse or Brickyard or something. Freakin' awesome because it was so small and you'd get trashed on great japanese drinks for cheap. We always had a great time down there. B-Side was one of the hosts.

You're most likely thinking of Dragon Lounge when it was at "Brick by Brick". They're breaks, but mostly DnB.

Nice night, but not a world class club night in my opinion. =)

Re: Top Club nights?

^ ^ That was it. Hey, any night that has awesome music is world class. :CandyPop:

Re: Top Club nights?

Renaissance nights at the Bomb (Nottingham) were pretty good - very intimate. Sasha played a blinder to 300 people in 2004 with the very capable Marcus James on the undercard. Hernan and JZ played there a few times too.

Sankeys (Manchester) run good Tribal Session nights, as does Circus (Liverpool) too - having featured Sasha, Digweed, Lawler, JZ, Kleinenberg and DeepDish over the past few years.

Re: Top Club nights?

digweed @ the rubb - tampa, FL march 19, 1999

followed the night after (and without sleep driving from city to city) by

digweed & dubtribe @ the nike pavillion - atlanta, GA march 20, 1999

two amazing club nights in two different cities/states seperated by 500 miles of interstate 75 anyone who was at the atlanta party left a changed person. i know the gallons of whiskey, numerous eX tablets, and red jelly mescalines that led up to and took place during and in between these events may have had something to do with the mind altering aural experience. but i hold digweed responsible for fucking me senseless those two nights.

Re: Top Club nights?

I heard LA is the place to be now... The best show I ever saw was Diggers 12 hours marathon set in the Palace 2002-2003 NYE. The last 2 hours were interesting very minimal sound.

That was such a good night. The first two 12 hours NYE shows he did here are by far my favs.:)

Re: Top Club nights?

LA has had some excellent NYE parties over the years. Fucking in bathrooms. :Anal:

Re: Top Club nights?

The Terrace in Space Miami definetly one of the best spots.

And yeah... Room 1 of heaven for Bedrock (not that ive been to any of their "other" club nights on offer mind!), cant wait for October...

Re: Top Club nights?

Aside from many many WMC days/nights/afterhours and everything in between, my personal favorite clubnight at home has to be back on Thanksgiving eve/day (November) 2001 when I began the evening with Sasha & Digweed with Jimmy Van M opening for them at Cipriani's NYC. One hell of a lightshow with sound that did the most it could in a room that cavernous...music & atmosphere was top-notch of course with the boys just starting their Delta Heavy tour...made for a hell of a night!

As if that wasn't enough, when they stopped a bit after 6 (and I was still good for some more ;) ) I walked over to Sound Factory to catch Danny Tenaglia doing another of his usual marathon sets and managed to close that one out around 5-6 in the afternoon.

...oh, the memories...now that's what it's all about :D ;)

Re: Top Club nights?

Seb Fontaine - Vancouver, Canada. 2000'ish

The best night of my life. I was single, had over 15 drinks, and the music was wicked.

Seb came out in a winter expedition jacket and just fucking rocked the club. It is a huge venue, the music was ace, the sound was ace, the girls hot, the drinks stiff, and the service excellent.

Mind you, this was before he want whack. The prototype years. It was just a smooth night, and it never ended. Best club night to date.
