Four Must-go Local Scenes

Four Must-go Local Scenes

Have you ever wondered where to go when in search of good "clubbing music"? If yes, you are on the right page then. Singapore offers numerous clubs throughout the region. Each club offers a careful selection of songs which define their personal style and sets the ambience for the night.

Phuture and Zouk

One of the most famous clubs in Singapore, party-goers from all age groups crowd the dance floors every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Phuture offers Mambo-Jambo night on Wednesdays. Playing songs dating back to early 60's that would remind one of their younger days, the Mambo dance is famous. One will have to diligently apply himself or herself to the Mambo steps to fit into the dance floor on this night. Zouk is more laid back and contemporary; it plays R&B songs and the latest pop songs - which the younger generations love. It is no surprised then that these two clubs are for the younger crowd.

Kyo

Tucked away in skyscraper-lit downtown, in the basement of a tower in the bustling, dazzling business district of metropolis singapore is kyo. a space where elemental music meets visionary art. the art of escapism. Mixed crowd of locals and expats makes it good for socalising, drinks flowing and dancing to deep techno beats.

St.James Powerhouse Station

This is the largest all-in-one clubbing destination in Singapore. Set in an old power station built in 1927, there are ten different and interconnected venues which cater to specific music genres. These music genres range from jazz, Mandopop, Afro Latin, lounge, karaoke hits, pop, rock, R&B to soul. There is even an outdoor Sports Bar where sports enthusiasts can catch their favorite sports live in action. With multiple clubs and bar themes, this powerhouse station is indeed one of the must-go for the definitive music scene in Singapore.
