sydney sider feeling lost and lonely in melbourne

Post by daftnerd »

Hay everyone

I thought it would be best to ask the locals about where should i go to get the best electronic music in melbourne, preferably D'n'B, breaks, really anything with a heavy nasty grime bassline :D

I've been suggested places such as the workshop, revolver, the lounge? what do ppl think about these places? Also whats the laundry like in melbourne?

I'm planning to go to the pendulum gig in melbourne :D its so going to kick sydney's ASSSSSS! hahah luna park venue? mmm thats bad...

Anyways any suggestions would be great :) if anyone wants the low down on sydney i'd be happy to help too!

depends on what nights you want to go out......

Lounge tonight has breaks upstairs, and hip-hop DnB downstairs....

Friday, don't listen to what people here say, go to fractured.

Saturday, go to revolver after 2am for some deep breakbeat action.

hello and welcome, those clubs suggested are nice clubs indeed, though only on specific night do they play what your after.
Lounge downstairs on Thursday nights
Revolver Sat night from midnight in front room = breaks etc

otherwise, check out Croft institute, Fractured Friday Night @Brown Alley, Miss Libertine is putting on some good shows coming up, shit, there is heaps, i'll let others fill in the blanks

Welcome mate.

As Almax said, great clubs but you'll find they have different genre's on different nights.

Same goes for Laundry.

This website is a great guide. As are the street press rags Beat and Inpress.

Too true- multiple nights on and friendly people albeit without the name tags Direktor suggested you'll still find the mb peeps
