Berlin rolls the Dice The lucky clubbers of Berlin just got luckier. As RA previously reported, yet another addition to the clubbing map, Dice, will officially open in a matter of weeks.
As with Berghain, Dice is situated in an abandoned power station, but it seems like that's where the similarities between the two clubs end. Situated in Mitte, Dice is a 2,000 square metre venue that will have three rooms for music, as well as a large roof garden for parties and Sunday sessions over the summer months. Whilst Berghain has a simplistic outlook as far as lighting is concerned, the owners of Dice have pulled out all the stops, getting Room Division (who are responsible for the dazzling ceiling lights in Watergate) to kit the club out with their creations. Sound quality hasn't been compromised either, as Funktion One have custom-built their most expensive set-up to date for the space. Whilst the official opening party is actually on the 14th of February, its secondary rooms will host a few warm up parties in the weekends running up to that date. Marc Houle, Matthew Styles and Kiki kick things off this Friday, whilst Saturday's party is taken over by live sets from Jussi-Pekka and Lars Wickinger. The weekend before the launch sees two separate shows from Dial's Lawrence and Platzhirsch boss Tobias Becker, whilst Agaric and Treplec both play the night before the official opening. The opening party itself marks the first time that the main dance floor will be opened to the public, with a line-up that should make it a night to remember. Detroit techno legends Octave One will be bringing their analogue gear over for a special live performance, and Fabrice Lig, Spirit Catcher and A Guy Called Gerald will also contribute live performances. -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Michael Kuszynski [mailto:kuszyn...@gmail.com] Verzonden: vrijdag 30 januari 2009 4:36 Aan: Frank Glazer CC: Todd Sines; atomly; ohanakin ...; JD Harrington; 313@hyperreal.org Onderwerp: Re: (313) NYC stores It was mostly indie and minimal customers, which as I noted earlier in my poorly phrased note, hid a lot of the very-good-for-these-days electronic and techno sections. They always had an up to date wall.
