The Djungeltrumman club editor’s tips.
Café Rasoir
Address: Café le fil du rasoir, Norra Vallgatan 62
9pm – 1am
Free entry until 10pm, 90 kronor later
Age: 20 and over
This French-sounding gem is located right down at the bottom of the Hotel Savoy. The club has attracted work weary Malmö residents for atmospheric tête à têtes over a glass of red wine. Given that it’s a steakhouse, there are oysters, snails and entrecôte on offer. But you can just as easily go there to enjoy a classic cocktail in the award-winning bar section. By night this is a meting place for the city’s representative’s of bohemian chic, discussing important matters in the glow of candlelight.
Tonight
DJ Oh No plays a bit of something for everybody.
Function
Address: Babel, Spångatan 38
11pm – 3am
100 kronor (80 kronor with student ID)
Age: 20 and over
Function is the club that is rocking the entire Öresund region. Sweat and love are two themes closely connected to this soul classic, where Saturday nights are spent in a collective celebration of dance, dance and more dance. The club’s DJs alternate expertly between northern soul, alternative disco and soulful house, a soundtrack to which it is impossible to stand still.
Tonight
DJs: Richar ‘DJ Honky’ Lewis and Lynne K + resident soulsters Jonte, Joppe, Helena, Bastiano.
Mission
Address: Chokladfabriken, Bergsgatan 33
Midnight – 5am
80 kronor
Age: 18 and over
Mission has unfortunately become associated with a seedy, lawless place behind KB whose glory days ended the moment Mission walked out the door. But these are new techno times and fresh, lawful winds are blowing as Mission moves in to the top floor of Chokladfabriken. Exciting DJ bookings, projector shows, lasers and smoke will all help make this a favourite among the club kids.
Tonight
Ruede Hagelstein, Berlin (Upon You Records, Lebensfreude, SouvenirMusic), PhaseOff. Melodramatic minimalist funk from Germany.
Supersoul
Address: Debaser Malmö, Norra Parkgatan 2
3pm – 3am
60 kronor (free entry before 10pm)
Age: 20 and over
Funk, soul. afro and hip-hop against a backdrop of slide show images straight out of a 1970s acid trip. Supersoul’s residents root around in their collective treasure chests and pull out the grooviest tracks from the last half century to get the dancefloor hopping and emotions running high. Heart and pain are never as dancy as they are at Supersoul.
Tonight
Live at midnight: Liberator (Oompa Oompa).
Wonk
Address: A2, Adelgatan 2
11pm 4am
100 kronor (50 kronor until midnight)
Age: 20 and over
There was quite a fanfare when gay club Wonk Deep moved into the new surroundings of A2. But have no fear: Wonk is still very much Wonk. World-renowned DJs do their stuff on three dancefloors: schlager, pop and house. Sip a Sex on the Beach, join in the Karaoke, try out the strippers pole and make yourself at home. PS: Free entry for drag queens.
