bark Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 The Huntsmen Pub in the basement of the Landmark hotel. Live music featuring a Philippino girl band around 8pm.

atyclb Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Club Climax soi 11. Live bands and loaded with freelancers and some are actually free if you hansum man LOL. many a young bonafide fit hansum man has complained that the freelancers actually want money... little do they know. on infrequent occasion there are some non hookers but even they can have a catch. example; met alleged gal with uni degree, spoke clear non issan thai well.. she had a new car and drove me home. in the morning tells me she drove to bkk (3 hours) and blew all her money with her friends. wants money to fill her tank i told her i had already filled it LOL but offered 500 baht as a reasonable gesture. another time was a gal saying she has a hair salon and is not selling herself. she had no english ability. at my place the first order of business was asking me negotiating how much shed get for her taxi. hearing all the stories is not interesting and also detracts from mood. climax is NOT the place to go for normal girls (good job and or financially secure, more intelligent) good bands though but tons of cigarette smoke and pushy servers. staff in front where you pay entrance fee are often rude and crass trying to get a tip out of your entrance fee change. the upscale thai clubs (rca, ekamai, and others "parking toys" near kaeset university) have never done this to me. also bands have never demanded a tip in advance for song requests as some have in nana - cowboy, one band even asking 500 baht.

If you like completely empty bars,with sticky carpets in 4 star hotels that overcharge for drinks,with +++ (service charge,tax,vat and big nose fine) then this is definitely the place for you!

rwdrwdrwd Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Hello, where is the best house / electronic music in Bangkok now ? If you had to choose only one ? Thanks.I can't pick one, it's between Glow and Beam, though there are s number of decent smaller underground spots across the city.Either one of Glow and Beam is a good place to start.

Agent Sumo Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Hello, where is the best house / electronic music in Bangkok now ? If you had to choose only one ? Thanks. Glow is shit. They ask you for 350 baht cover charge but more often than not, they've got some chump DJ who's been into house music for about 6 months on the decks. They play tech house but call it techno because, they think it's more niche and, frankly, the overwhelmingly clueless crowd don't really know the difference. With one or two notable exceptions, they'd all be thrown of the decks if they played their boring sets in any real club in London or NYC But, hey, their tatts, piercings and friendship bracelets look cool Beam in Thonglor is ok, at least they don't take the piss and ask you to pay to listen to some gimp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwdrwdrwd Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) Entirely depends on the event, have been to some awesome nights at Glow, and yes some tepid ones. If Beam has a shit booking, it will be shit as well. Just do your research, easy to find out who is playing on a given night for either club (check their Facebook) and then you can just go to Mixcloud and see for yourself. And of course, taste is subjective.. what Agent Sumo thinks is crap, others may like. Edited July 12, 2016 by rwdrwdrwd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Glow I think your best bet is to wait until Nakadia plays there,I believe it's her favourite place to play in Bangkok?

I don't see what all the fuss is about with Nakadia She just plays any old crap as long as it's "bangin'" Not into that industrial Berlin crap - it's like the producers are stuck for musical inspiration once they've got the drums and the effects down. You can almost imagine them scratching their heads in the studio wondering if they can call someone who knows how to play a note on a musical instrument or write a hook.
