For true clubbers it’s not about the glitz and the glamour, the suits and the boots, the who’s who and who’s new. No. It’s about the music, and one hotel spotted the gaping hole in the Dubai club scene and are poised to fill it.
Starting tomorrow, Boutique 7 Hotel & Suites in Tecom will offer a different scene to what’s out there now: their new club The Basement will cater to those who want to promote the underground scene. With low ceilings and no-fuss decor, The Basement promises to be a hot spot for clubbers out to dance to the music they like.
The Basement's Grand Opening Party on Wednesday will feature Dubai House & Techno favourites, Adam (Warped), Smokingroove, Kris Lee (Glitch) and Richie D & DLB.
Smokingroove has been looking forward to the club opening for a long time.
“Dubai has been lacking a club that takes things back to the old-school clubbing days of big centres like London and New York. The Basement does just that. It pushes everyone together, literally, and it’s bringing clubbing culture back to what it should be. It’s not about sparklers and that kind of nonsense. It’s about the music. What you will see from The Basement is raw unadulterated clubbing at its best, and I can’t wait to be a part of it.”
The Basement, Boutique 7 Hotel & Suites in Tecom opens its doors at 22:30pm; free entries for women, face-card & platinum card holders all night (21 and above only; ID required). Normal club policies apply. For reservations and more information, call 04 434 5555 or 055 286 9501, or email thebasement@boutique7.ae
