New club Dice for Berlin

Berlin already has the world’s best club scene with Berghain, Watergate, Weekend and countless other dancing holes, but on 14th February the city will get a plush new club in an abandoned electricity station (after all a club wouldn’t be Berlin club, without post-industrial decor and the threat of electrocution on the dancefloor).

Dice in Mitte is being touted as 2000 square metres of “state-of-the-art sound and lighting and cutting edge electronic sounds” with a large roof terrace that’s “perfect for after hours Sunday sessions.”

Who wants to move to Berlin?

With three rooms, 26 foot high ceilings and another futuristic Funktion One soundsystem (the most expensive PA they’ve ever built apparently) and lighting developed by the same crew that gave us ‘that’ famous Watergate lightway, Dice is set to take Berlin by storm.

What’s more, the music programming of Dice is in collaboration with Minus’ booking agency Clonk, Get Physical’s Wilde Bookings and Backroom Entertainment who look after Todd Terje, Metro Area and Tiger Stripes (why can’t all new clubs pay that amount of attention to music programming?).

In the first few months, Luke Solomon, Simon Baker, Gabriel Ananda and Aril Brikha are due to perform, and word has it Fridays will be penned for eclectic electronic live acts while Saturdays will be dedicated to proper underground house and techno.

Gambling, they ain’t.
