Brand new Thursday Night at Velvet Underground. The style of music and djing that inspired Zouk in the early years and the foundation of a continued open-minded approach to music nearly 2 decade’s later, is none other than the influential Balearic sound of the early 90′s…

Embraced by Ibizan locals as a healthy disrespect to style conformity, its freestyle expression was adopted by DJs Paul Oakenfold, Danny Rampling and Trevor Fung after holidaying there and became a phenomenon in the UK via their respective club nights.

Deft and clever programming of fusing cutting edge house music with fun and unexpected bursts of soul, funk, pop and Rock remix oddities, the likes of The Stone Roses, St. Ettiene, James Brown and Peter Gabriel, it spelt good times all night.

Velvet Underground‘s Balearic Thursdays is like going back to the clubs roots, a spirited time, playing a spectrum of fun and vibrant music and reminiscing and re-discovering all those tunes that made the party and caused dancefloor mayhem throughout Zouk’s 3 rooms, 1991 right up till today.

Zouk alumnae rejoice and fresh clubbers feel the vibe that started it all, right in time for fashion and music’s resurgent love affair with all things 90′s.

Free flow of Bombay Sapphire Gin and freshly squeezed Mandarin oranges while stocks last.

Launch Party on Thursday 31st July 2008, 10pm onwards

Velvet Underground admission on Thursday 31 July for non-members (incl 2 drinks): $20
