Robotales midweek downtempo sessions
Filling the musical black hole of midweek with electronica goodness is a new Wednesday night bar session at The GRV called Robotales.
Promising chillout, lounge, trip-hop, downtempo, experimental, dubstep, click and minimal with residents on rotation, and with The List describing it as "sophisticated beats combined with live art performance and exhibitions", it sounds like probably a good place for that midweek G&T.
Venue The GRV (formerly known as The Green Room during the '07 Festival) on Hasties Close, just off Guthrie Street, is developing an interesting-looking line-up of clubs and sessions, with a definite lean towards the more experimental and alternative, as it expands its programme of events after its initial launch on 16 November.
We are loving the poster, as we think it's what the future will look like.
Robotales is every Wednesday at The GRV, 9pm-1am. Free entry. More info and a list of who's playing each week at myspace.com/robotales.
