• 30 FXXXING YEARS

    “The music still batters the senses, pushing boundaries, constantly reinventing and setting the tone for what’s coming round the next corner. This is the space where underground clubs really exist, breaking new music, creating new energies, inspiring new ideas, and forging new friendships all along the way.” Mike Grieve, Managing Director

    After thirty years of partying in the ‘dear green place’ that is Glasgow, the Sub Club still resides deep below ground at number 22 Jamaica Street.

    Week in, week out, you can find the cream of the city’s music makers playing to the best people the city can muster on the finest sound system you will hear in Scotland, or pretty much anywhere in the world for that matter.

    Joining them are DJs and artists from all corners of the planet, enthused by the reputation that the club, hand in hand with it’s hedonists, has built over years. Regularly voted amongst the best clubs in the world and revered by regulars, visitors, DJs and musicians the world over, it has maintained a reputation that promises no prejudice and no limits when it comes to enjoying great music.

    The Subbie has the finest house DJs in the city as residents at the flagship Saturday night Subculture, which is now the longest running weekly house and techno club night on the planet. Incredibly, apart from jointly hosting Subculture since it’s inception in 1994, Harri has been a regular DJ at the club since 1985 and Domenic since 1992. Harri was also weekly resident at Atlantis with Slam alongside from 1990 – 1994, making his own unbroken Saturday night residency 27 years long – but who’s counting?

    Combine this with other local heroes such as Sensu, Optimo, Slam, Numbers, Animal Farm, The i AM, Huntleys & Palmers, Thunder Disco, Don’t Drop, Show and you have a collection of the best underground talent Glasgow has to offer, all dedicated to sound tracking your night-out in their own original and inimitable styles.
