Have you rested during the summer? We hope so because, in September, we won’t rest so much! The sun in Barcelona is still quite good, and the outdoor parties are still there. Some clubs, like INPUT, go back to their usual double opening per weekend and others, like Pacha, face their last month of electronic music on Sunday before moving to Friday nights. Are you one of those who would go to any party and need a brake? These are our 10 proposals (which are not few) for the month of September. Let’s go!
10. WYS with Dubfire, Jacob Husley & Peter Pixzel @ Pacha Barcelona
The Iranian but America-based Dubfire will be the protagonist of the last electronic Sunday at Pacha Barcelona since the techno party moves to Fridays starting in October. It is the ideal option to close the month of September in style with one of the most important DJs in the underground scene and at one of the best clubs in Barcelona. Pacha has two indoor rooms and a terrace, as well as one of the most powerful sound systems in town.
When: Sunday, September 30th
Where: Pacha Barcelona
Lineup: Dubfire, Jacob Husley and Peter Pixzel
9. Ben Klock @ The Loft (Razzmatazz Clubs)
Just two days before, another of the biggest names in the techno genre worldwide will land in one of the most historic nightclubs of the city. Razzmatazz has five different spaces inside and one of them, The Loft, always reserves the most underground sounds of the scene for the weekends. The industrial techno is a very recurring option at The Loft and on Sept, 28th will have one of the maximum representatives of that sound: the German and Berghain resident Ben Klock.
When: Friday, September 28th
Where: The Loft (Razzmatazz Clubs)
Lineup: Ben Klock, Latzaro and more
8. Ben Sims @ HEX (INPUT High Fidelity Dance Club)
We continue with the most industrial sounds of techno and, in this case, with HEX Barcelona guys, who bring the British Ben Sims back to one of the best electronic clubs in Barcelona: INPUT High Fidelity Dance Club. The HEX parties are characterized by their dark and mental aspect. Little lighting, full attention to techno music and no fear of getting to speedy with the bpms. It’s ideal for a man like Ben Sims, isn’t it?
When: Friday, September 7th
Where: INPUT High Fidelity Dance Club
Lineup: Ben Sims, PØLI, Lorenzo and Hitch
7. Los Suruba @ BClub (City Hall)
Delmar and Álvaro are well-known around the country. Together, they are Los Suruba, one of the most acclaimed duos in these lands. Their sets are made by modern electronica, house, disco, melodic tones and, why not, also some techno. Positive energy, smiles from ear to ear and a unique vibe make Los Suruba a must-see for this month. It is also a great opportunity to get to know BClub, the new concept of clubbing without VIP areas that resides on Thursday nights in the historic City Hall, next to Plaza Cataluña.
When: Thursday, September 13th
Where: BClub (City Hall)
Lineup: Los Suruba and NiLO.R (live)
6. Anja Schneider @ RRR | F:U:N: (La Terrrazza)
Based in Berlin, Anja Schneider has been making the German capital ground vibrate for years with her deep rhythms, between house and techno, always inviting, warm and enveloping, although with a strong touch that lifts anyone from his/her seat. La Terrrazza is the best open-air club in Barcelona. It is located in the heart of Poble Espanyol and offers the best possible plan: first class electronic music under the stars.
When: Friday, September 7th
Where: La Terrrazza
Lineup: Anja Schneider, Saulo Pisa and Turko
5. C. Tangana and more @ Pacha-Chá Daytime Fest (Plaza Mayor)
Pacha-chá is the Thursday party at Pacha Barcelona but, being aware of the September 11th holiday throughout Catalonia, it moves to the Plaza Mayor of Poble Espanyol (where other big parties such as Brunch -in the City or Hivernacle, in addition to many other concerts, take place) to offer a great outdoor party in the evening (from 5 pm to 12 am). The headliner doesn’t need presentations. C. Tangana is the biggest star of the Spanish trap and one of the revelation artists of the last year in urban music.
When: Monday, September 10th
Where: Plaza Mayor (Poble Espanyol)
Lineup: C. Tangana, Dollar Selmouni & Kvinz, Damed Squad, Pepe Vizio, Karam, Hummuskid, 31 FAM, DJ Flaca, Taao Kross and more
4. Armin van Buuren @ WEDJS (Opium Barcelona)
Armin van Buuren is one of the biggest international icons (if not the biggest) of trance music. The Dutch producer and DJ was a revolutionary in his time and, since then, he has been on the top of the genre for years. He is one of the great guests of the season at WEDJS, the session aimed at the greatest artists of the EDM and the commercial electro-house music curated by the classic Opium, located right in the Port Olímpic and on the seafront.
When: Friday, September 7th
Where: Opium Barcelona
Lineup: Armin van Buuren and more
3. Boris Brejcha pres. Fuckng Serious @ INPUT High Fidelity Dance Club
Tired of conventional techno? This is your night. The German Boris Brejcha always wanted to get away from the most commercial techno trends and sought to make his own sound. For that reason, his intense sessions, full of emotional melodies based on synthesizer and elegant and deep drops, avoid marrying any label and get celebrated under his own brand: Fuckng Serious. INPUT High Fidelity Dance Club has the best Funktion-One sound system in the city, perfect to enjoy and vibrate with every detail as if it were a massive festival stage.
When: Friday, September 21st
Where: INPUT High Fidelity Dance Club
Lineup: Boris Brejcha, Ann Clue, Deniz Bul and Theydream
2. Xceed & SIGHT pres. Charlotte de Witte @ Pacha Barcelona
You’re reading properly! It was time to organize our own gig, right? Sunday, September 9th is the day of our date at the nicest club in the city. In front of the Mediterranean Sea, with a beautiful terrace and an elegant main room dressed with a powerful sound system, Pacha will be waiting for us. Together with SIGHT, we have managed the Belgian DJ Charlotte de Witte to be in charge of the music. She’s one of the young stars that have revolutionized the techno scene with their forceful and aggressive sets. In the last year, she performed at really big events such as Tomorrowland, Awakenings or Ultra Europe. Now, we will have her close to home. We will be waiting for you!
When: Sunday, September 9th
Where: Pacha Barcelona
Lineup: Charlotte de Witte, Ramiro Lopez and Fran Hernandez
