DRESS CODE: Trendy and stylish
MUSIC: Electro, house and techno.
DJs: Blair and Ryan Harrower with guests - Matt Tolfrey (Cocoon).
LAUNCHED in March, Rendezvous showcases the best in local talent and features guest DJs making moves in the underground house scene.
The concept behind the night is to bring the same party atmosphere experienced in Barcelona, Berlin and Ibiza to Edinburgh. With the emphasis being the musical experience rather than simply strutting your stuff in a club.
Situated in the west end, 'The Lane' (formerly Berlin) runs parallel to Princess Street and not far from Lothian Road. You can't miss the dazzling flood lights illuminating the alley way or the crowd forming outside. Head through the main doors and down a steep flight of steps. Rendezvous is spread over three rooms, each providing a varied spectrum of house music, catering for most preferences.
To your left, a stylish bar featuring house and disco courtesy of DJs Gary Carvel and Laurence Nolan. To the right you'll find the main room with the Harrower boys playing a house and techno set. On this occasion they are joined by headlining DJ Matt Tolfrey fresh from Sven Vath's Berlin Label: Cocoon.
If you fancy something funkier then go through to the 'white room' (just beyond the main room) where you can find Heavy Gossip's Nick Yuill playing out a soulful selection of deep house and disco. The white rom features some cool seating and a much more intimate space to chill out.
A club night with a good atmosphere and up for it crowd, this is a 'rendezvous' worth making.
Rendezvous, Saturday 31st July @ The Lane, 3 Queensferry St Lane, Edinburgh, 0131-629-9891, 11pm - 3am, £8 (early bird + booking fee) or pay on the door £12
