Stylewalker - Kost' ja nix!

London, Fabric

July 3, 2007 on 12:01 pm by Thomas | In Stylewalker, Music, DJ mixes, going out, London |

Going out in London is a special thing. More special than in Berlin where going out is something casual, normal and cheap, while in London it’s a celebration. Berlin is great because everybody is just hanging out, having a chilled time, with no stress at all. Can be a little dull because of that too . If you reach a certain limit there is no further, it seems.

London is speed, business, danger, money. And when people go out there, they let loose and forget about their shitty service or administration jobs, they don’t care about the money, they just want to have a good time.

Fabric is a perfect place for that. We went there last friday, it was already 2am or so and there were three different lines to stand in. Some pretty wasted people around us, getting into trouble, some guy rapping about his ‘44 (caliber? I had no idea..), and suddenly it opens up and everybody rushes in. Inside: Massive drumnbass, an interior architecture you couldn’t figure out really, lots of stairs and different rooms, three dancefloors and overall an amazing sound. Crystalclear, fat and crisp, it wasn’t even too loud but just overwhelming. Sad enough, Fabric closes about half past 5, I would have liked to dance longer.

But walking around in the morning light on the Millenium bridge was a pleasure, too.. Ever since I listen to Drum’n'Bass again and there are some brilliant sources on the internet, like dnb-sets.de or newmixes.com.

Here, I picked out one DJ Hype mix from Kiss 100, especially the first tune is absolutely mindblowing:

London!

Fabric still rocks it, so it seems… did you check any other places out east of there?

No, not really, I was in Shoreditch in some bars but cannot remember the names. Moreover, Bethnal Green is great for galleries obviuosly.

[…] Watergate seen from the Oberbaum bridge, by FeffefActually, Watergate is one of the best clubs in Berlin. It’s a great venue, just by the river, you can sit outside or dance inside, in two really big rooms and, to be honest, it has a soundsystem that might not be as massive as the Fabric’s e.g. but certainly stands the test against the other big club players in Berlin. Tresor does not sound any better, neither does Berghain, not to speak of Week-end, Cookies, Tape, 103, Maria or whatever, Watergate sets a standard in sound here. Not only that, the club is famous for its immense light show, a stream of LEDs that cover the ceiling and swoosh through the night. […]

I went to Fabric last Friday also, for the first time.
Overwhemlming would be one of many ways to describe my experience.
The only down side was the waiting.
Hype & Dillinja wasd blinding!
Where can I find images/vids of that (or any night)
It seems to me dontstayin.com has no-one covering the club at all…..
