There's
nothing quite like being in the thick
of a club: the pulse of the crowd, the
tingle of the meat-market, the throbbing
bass, the overpriced drinks, the toilet
queues, the obnoxious doormen... |
 |
With
countless online sources to boost your
own formidable music collection (the official
iTunes store for the lawful, the currently-in-court
Pirate
Bay for the less legal), it should
be possible to recreate the effect yourself.
But sadly it's never quite the same.
Sites like 8tracks
and
LastFM have their place,
as long as you're craving
something thoroughly random.
And there's always web-radio
- but if I have to hear one
more American get-rich-quick
ad, I swear I'm going to have
a seizure.
But with Awdio’s
vast and ever-growing
international following
of live club nights, it’s
now possible to warm-up at
work to some big name, late
night mischief from Chicago,
Ibiza or Berlin (we’re a varied
bunch). Then, in one small
click, we can be live in Paris
at Colette
or grabbing an early-morning
club in Sao Paulo, before
hitting our own Cargo,
Sketch,
TBar,
and Bar
Rumba – all in real time.
