Hey, I've been living in Zürich for almost a year now and have been to some great club nights with my boyfriend, but we miss having a good bunch of mates to join us on nights out, and haven't yet properly met anyone into the same music.

Is there anyone in or near Zürich into good electronic music and nights out who might want to get together sometime? We tend to be into the heavier side of drum n bass, some techno, house, electronica etc (in terms of going out, but listen to loads of stuff outside of that).

We're probably amongst the - ahem - older people in clubs now, but not ready to hang up our raving shoes just yet

I'm 35 and I feel ancient like an ent whenever I end up at a club after some heavy quaffing. As a matter of fact, I think anyone older than... say 15 will feel old in most of Zurich's electronic music establishments. I'm told the key is not letting it get to you, and using products in moderation generously

Ha, yeah we're kind of used to it I think, it's not getting to us yet (or not stopping us at least)

Which rave clubs are some of the best in ZH? Any with live dj-ing? And the question all smokers hate: do the clubs smell like cigarette smoke?

Thank you!

Hmm it depends what you're into I suppose! I tend to prefer mine on the grimier side I've been to Zukunft, Hive, Härterei, Exil, Moods, Babette, Amboss Rampe ...

I like them all - Amboss Rampe and Zukunft are pretty cool and relatively intimate - I liked Hive too for a bigger club. Härterei is a cool space, though the crowd hasn't always been that good there.

What do you mean by live djing?

Some people do get away with smoking inside which is a bit annoying, but I haven't found it too bad.

I know this post is old, but anybody interested on the party running tonight 16.03.18 with Miss Kittin on the mix, in the club Nordstern in Basel???

Damn, that one passed me by, did you go?! Nordstern seems to have lots of good nights on, need to get there sometime soon.

No I did not

Aw, well give us a shout if you're planning to head to any similar nights, would be cool to say hi if I'm heading out too

Give me a shout next time you wanna go out. I'm mostly into tech/deep house stuff, but I enjoy d'n'b as well.

There are a couple of dnb nights on over Easter weekend actually, think we might go and see High Contrast at X TRA on Sunday if you might be interested?

@saroohoo We already have some plans for this week-end. Depending how tired I will be, I might join. I will PM you.
