Old Moscow favourite that still knows how to party

Noteworthy for: Weeknight parties. Many a working Muscovite has overslept after one of their classic Sanchez Thursday night parties, or the legendary Propaganda Got Soul party which starts at midnight on Tuesdays.

Word to the wise: Sunday is gay night and the admissions policy is men only.

This club may have long since been eclipsed by the newer and hipper cutting-edge clubs of the Red October Factory area, but despite being over a decade old, this old favourite still draws the crowds.

By day it’s a coffee and lunch joint, but before midnight strikes the tables are cleared away, opening up the dance floor to a sweaty milieu of mayhem.

The clientele tend to be an unpretentious mix of bright-eyed students and managers in their mid-thirties looking to relive their student days to the hard house beats and nu-rave that the DJs spin.
