The Shelter
Just recently I was invited by DJ Gaz from the Shelter club in Shanghai to be a guest at his monthly event called Sub Culture. If you haven’t heard of the legendary club and its location you would be in for a suprise because the venue was originally an old World War II bomb shelter. Since those early days the decor of the club hasn’t changed much as it still has the same reinforced concrete walls tunnel like corridors. The feel and vibe of the place is so Grimey and raw, being there reminded me of my early rave days of Deeper club in silom soi 4. I was very excited and honored to have been invited to play there even though it was my doctors orders to not do any drinking or smoking for well… the rest of my life! But even still I had to go on with the show. and yes I did drink bucket loads of Heiniken but I really feel guilty bout that hehe. The turnout for that night wasn’t as big as the promoters had wanted but, the crowd that did show were well up for it. Apart from having me as a guest the club has hosted nights with DJ’s such as Zinc, Pinch, Dam Funk, Goth Trad and DJ Kentaro. I recommend that anyone who is an electronic music fan visit the Shelter on there next stop to Shanghai.
Big up’s to Gaz and all the Shelter family you guys are the best !!!
