When there are proposals of different styles, we praise him. When a genre predominates, it also has to be said, although there’s no reason for it to be bad. And if you’re not convinced, ask the fans of those sounds. In fact, this December Madrid is going to dance a lot of techno music, it’s going to listen to a lot of acid sounds and it’s going to eat big doses of bpms. We’ll show you why. Here we go with the best December parties in Madrid.
10. Frank Kvitta and more @ Move (Upper Club Madrid)
And here’s the first one. Frank Kvitta, introducer of schranz music in our country in the early 2000’s, returns to Madrid in December with MoveClubMadrid to make the most insatiable dance on the night after Christmas. Ideal for losing a few kilos!
When: Wednesday, December 25thWhere: Upper Club MadridLineup: Frank Kvitta and Xorpel
9. Coone and more @ Fabrik Madrid
The Belgian Coone has already for more than half a decade entrenched in several Top-100 DJs charts. He is infallible in festivals like Defqon or the famous Tomorrowland, where the Mainstage has danced many times to his collabs with people like Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. In December, Coone arrives at Fabrik so that Madrid can continue jumping and sweating to the rhythm of the best hardstyle music.
When: Saturday, December 21stWhere: Fabrik MadridLineup: Coone, D-Block & S-te-Fan, Devin Wild, Keltek, Pablo Discobar, Sefa, Sub Zero Project and Villain
8. James Ruskin and more @ Stardust (Sala Cool)
At just 20, James Ruskin fell in love with techno and electro and created his own label Blueprint, an imprint that would become a reference with the passing of the decades. The Brit comes to Stardust in his second youth.
When: Friday, December 13thWhere: Sala CoolLineup: James Ruskin and Nöle
7. PØLI and Lorenzo Raganzini @ HEX Showcase (Family Club Madrid)
Family Club is featuring one of the most popular labels on the European rave scene in 2019. Its co-founders, the Italians PØLI and Lorenzo Raganzini, have recently performed at the Georgian club KHIDI and in their calendar they already have dates in Italy, Greece, Hungary and Portugal, as well as in Barcelona, where they live. A unique opportunity to get to know their concept first hand.

6. Joachim Pastor and more @ Intime Club Prive
The French Joachim Pastor is one of the members of Hungry Music, a label he shares with N’to, Stereoclip and Worakls. The label’s cinematic deep house melodies spread brilliantly in Joachim Pastor’s live performances. It is an ideal musical proposal for a small and intimate environment like the one Intime Club Prive always proposes.
When: Sunday, December 8thWhere: Intime Club PriveLineup: Joachim Pastor and Pablo Fierro
5. Chelina Manuhutu, Matthias Tanzmann and more @ EKHO (La Riviera)
One of the great club nights for those who prefer tech-house proposals is this one proposed by EKHO. German Matthias Tanzmann is a veteran of the genre, a regular at elrow parties, whether in Barcelona, Madrid or Ibiza. On the other hand, the Dutch Chelina Manuhutu is already a new icon of the tech scene, after having made a career at Ibiza’s Blue Marlin.
When: Friday, December 27thWhere: La RivieraLineup: Chelina Manuhutu, Matthias Tanzmann, Nuke and Cesar Almena
4. Francisco Allendes, Neverdogs and more @ Any Sunday (El Invernadero Las Ventas)
Any Sunday. That’s what the organizers of this new series of parties claim: any Sunday is good for dancing. But if it’s the eve of a holiday, much better. That’s why, on Sunday 8th, during all afternoon and evening and until 1 am, the best of the tech-house, like the Chilean Francisco Allendes, the Italian duo Neverdogs or the Portuguese Gonçalo b2b Raúl Pacheco, will make Madrid dance relentlessly.
When: Sunday, December 8thWhere: El Invernadero Las VentasLineup: Francisco Allendes, Neverdogs, Gonçalo b2b Raul Pacheco, Borja Saint, David Medina, MADSABA, Twiga and Vico Deep
3. Psyk and more @ Stardust (Sala Cool)
We all know how Stardust’s does it. Not happy with James Ruskin, they also wanted to count on Psyk, one of the great jewels of Spanish national techno sound, who has also been working on new albums and collaborations with other artists like Architectural. Another techno night, this one with a minimal aroma, in Madrid.
When: Friday, December 27thWhere: Sala CoolLineup: Psyk and Nöle
2. Paul Ritch and more @ EKHO (La Riviera)
What are we gonna say about Paul Ritch? Talking about “Run Baby Run” is far behind, but the truth is that since then, the man has been on the top and never came down from there. It still sounds current, fresh and, above all, hard. Very, very hard. He is another of EKHO’s great guests this December.
When: Friday, December 13thWhere: La RivieraLineup: Paul Ritch, Nuke and Cesar Almena
1. Amelie Lens, Rødhåd, Nastia and more @ Exhale (Fabrik Madrid)
