XOYO
click to manageDrum n Bass, House, Techno

In the heart of Shoreditch on Cowper Street, XOYO is a two-floor underground club that's just had a full reset with new ownership and a rebuilt sound and lighting setup, keeping the raw club energy alive without any fancy extras. It's all about the music and the dancefloor in a no-nonsense industrial space that packs in ravers for late nights, with one room downstairs for the main sweaty sets and the top floor (sometimes called The Jungle) for a slightly different vibe. What to expect is straight-up clubbing: doors usually around 9:30 or 10pm, building to full capacity with house, techno, disco, and whatever forward-thinking electronic beats the night's lineup brings – think signature XOYO Loves on Saturdays with melodic house and all-nighters, plus residencies, live acts, and midweek stuff like student hip-hop or R&B. The new Void sound system hits hard, lights are properly immersive, and the crowd is a mix of locals, students, and proper dancers ready to go till 3 or 4am. Security does bag checks and pat-downs, coat check is there for a couple quid because it gets hot, and the bars stay busy but move quick. It's over 18 or 19+ on weekends, ID required, and the whole place stays focused on the music rather than posing – arrive early on big nights or you might queue 20-40 minutes. Recent first-timers call the revamp spot-on with friendly staff and proper bass that makes it feel like classic Shoreditch clubbing again. Pricing is standard for central London clubs and changes per event. Tickets usually run £5 to £20 advance (some free parties or student deals dip lower, bigger names push higher), with last entry around 2-3am. Cocktails sit around £8-£12, beers and basics cheaper, and table service or VIP skips the queue if you book ahead but isn't essential. No big surprises – just pay at the door or online and you're in for the night.

In amongst fixing random bugs, there's been some significant addition of content. For example there are: Baseline countries for all 170 odd, and my fancy flags (yeah had those disc thingies made many many years ago). 10 countries with detail. 150 odd cities, in those 10 countries, with detail and many with pictures. Around 20-30 clubs in a large city in each of those countries. Cape Town London Dubai Barcelona New York Tokyo Berlin Warsawa Paris Stockholm Istanbul ...

Is it really fair to judge a venues music on a few nights that may or may not have been their choosing? considering they can choose which nights they have i think so...... regardless a good sound system and some danceable if slightly too mainstream for my liking tunes combined with a good club overall and firednly staff made it a good evening. overall value is a tough one, it's expensive but for a London club probably about par. Worth checking out if you're in the area or there's an act you want to see!
