The vibe system
A controlled vocabulary, so two rooms tagged the same actually feel the same.
More in Paris
Rooms that share this one’s DNA.
Paris
La Java
Paris
Rex Club
The room where French techno was argued into existence, with a sound system maintained like an instrument rather than an amenity.
Paris
Djoon
A small warm room that has kept its faith in deep house for two decades while the rest of the city chased the harder thing.
Paris
Chez Moune

Zig Zag Club

La Machine du Moulin Rouge
If you like this, fly to…
The same feeling, in another city.
New York
Good Room
Bangkok
Beam
A Funktion-One room on Thonglor Soi 55 that books internationally without behaving like a tourist club. The best sound in the city.
London
Phonox
A single dark room built around long residencies rather than guest bookings, which is why the Saturday crowd actually knows each other.
Mexico City
Yu Yu
A small hi-fi room in Roma with a bar programme as considered as the sound. The most consistently good night in the city.
Miami
Floyd Miami
The small room under Space. Better for the music, worse for the story you tell afterwards.
London
Dalston Superstore
A bar upstairs, a basement downstairs, and the most reliable queer night in east London on almost any day of the week.
