STLectro
Where: Rue 13 (1313 Washington Avenue; 314-588-9797)
Web site: www.myspace.com/stlectro
When: Every Thursday
What: Up until recently, Lou residents jonesing to hear six-minute Gossip remixes, the hottest MSTRKRFT track or Robbie Williams songs featuring cameos from the Pet Shop Boys were out of luck. But with the newly minted club night STLectro — billed as "Saint Louis' premiere electroclash club" — one can shake his or her asymmetrical haircut to the best electro, synthpop, '80s and dance-punk, all spun by a rotating cast of DJs (full disclosure: including my pal Commiekay, who spins at London Calling) that scour the Internet and record shops for the newest, most original tracks.

Space
Where: Mercury (1025 Spruce Street; 314-621-5502)
Web site: www.unitovone.com
When: Every other Friday
What: Mercury is a relatively new place, but it hasn't slacked on event-planning. On every other Friday through April, Mercury's hosting Space, an electronic music night. After April, Space will continue with a varied schedule to avoid the seasonal swarm of the Pujols-hungry Cardinals crew. (The club is just one block from the new Busch Stadium.) This boom-booming night is unique because the DJs don't focus on just one type of music, but incorporate different styles and tempos — including industrial, house and minimal — throughout. A rotating roster of both national and local DJs should keep these well-attended parties both diverse and fresh. (JL)

  1. I thought there was a guide here but only read of 5 clubs. Please check your system as there must be more to this somewhere, probably lost in cyberspace. Either that or your writers are - great effort girls, now i know so much more about St. Louis nightlife. Reminds me of last years RFT summer "guide", which turned out to be nothing but another pullout ad vehicle and waste of paper.
    thanks

  3. OK, so I'm not exactly the club type. But when I saw this article in the contents list, I was curious to see what I'd been missing. Too bad I already knew about the Upstairs Lounge - why couldn't that have been one club review with shorter descriptions for each night of the week? Did you guys forget to run an ad they'd already paid for? And sure, Les Aaron is a draw (I so miss the 105.7 of the 90's), but why feature an 80's night? Who *doesn't* have an 80's night? Tell me something I don't know, RFT - that's what I look forward to from you guys.
