Bratislava is maybe not the craziest party town in
Europe, but sometimes even local patriots as me, who believe in ultimate and
unchallengeable knowledge of everything that surrounds us, got surprised of
variety of choices one can made during a little bar-hopping and fun-seeking
night. I believe, that the most important ingredience which will ensure a
pleasant night is people you are hanging out, but...even when you´re with your
best mates, crappy music, bad service, expensive drinks and unfriendly atmosphere
can wash away your good mood for good. Well, that’s why I came to decision to
share my ideas and spread a good word about few places I know, that one cannot
complain about.
This article is a part of our little guide of
Bratislava and today, we talk about alternative (non-mainstream) places,
...:)
1. Batelier
Located on Tovarenska street, in
post-industrial area, not so far from city center. This place is run by few enthusiastic
people, who love art and "wants to share their interests in exploring new horizons
of contemporary music, arts and culture..." This club is one of those
places which are always crowded by young artists and musicians, cheap drinks,
great music, nice staff and a multifunctional area, which offers bar, music
stage, dance stage and art room for exhibitions. They often organize cultural
events to support cultural minorities, alternative and underground scene.
2. NuspiritClub
When you mix electronic music,
superior design and tasty drinks together, an elixir called Nuspirit will be
crafted. This club during its existence hosted many important DJs, local or
abroad, those chosen ones under ninja tunes label, or the others less popular,
but skilled. Do not expect 90´s pop-trance or Britney’s overwhelming emotions
packed to sweet - ear tearing pop ... but alternative electronic scene - from
dubstep to chillstep, house to techhouse, minimal to funky breakz, from chicago
to detroit. Occasionally, only some brilliant jazz musicians will change this
electronic ambience, what is a nice break after electro madness.
3. Cvernovka
Cvernovka is kinda hit or miss place for
fun-seekers, but, those who are willing to meet some local artists, those who
likes post-industrial environment, which is slowly transforming into
inspirational art areas ... for all of those ultimate urban explorers, who
can´t visit a place without exploring at least thousand street-art spots. And
if you are lucky enough, sometimes, there are crazy events like ping pong night
or moustache parties or interesting music or art festivals.
4. Subclub
Well, it is hard to say, that
there is possibly anybody, who is heading to Bratislava, and don´t know about
the Subclub, which situated under the Old Castle hill in former bunker. It is a sanctuary of all underground creatures, hipsters, intellectuals,
revolting youngsters, electronic addicts, dark-gothic-neo-punk paladins,
friendly anarchists, reggae rastamans, for those, who are going to sleep
with dubstep and waking up with DnB in their ears, for those, who does not
really care about fancyness, glamour and high-class style. Cheap drinks, unique
ambience, but sometimes a bit messy. Still worth to try.
5. KcDunaj
After opening KC Dunaj, it took only few
weeks to achieve a title : one of the best clubs in alternative scene. Bar
section, club and dancing room, cozy chill out room, terrace on the top of the
building with beautiful view, very reasonable prices, friendly staff, various
cultural events including: concerts, DJs, Literature sessions, dance workshops,
art festivals, board games night, movies nights, dramatic events, festivals
presenting minorities and alternative culture... Honestly, must go, even on Monday
:)
Well that´s it. I hope that you
have enjoyed the reading and please make us happy by reading our next article,
which is coming soon.
