Thunder Disco Club @ SWG3, 19 Nov

Article by Cal Sweeney | 05 Nov 2010

The SWG3 Studio Warehouse has begun to establish itself as a fresh and unique venue for clubs in Glasgow, with recent events held there by local institutions like Optimo and Subcity. Friday 19 November will see the boys of Thunder Disco Club adding to this reputation as they hit the venue with their individual blend of insatiable Hi-NRG Italo Disco and sensual 80s influenced visuals.

Always colourful with their descriptions, they promise “betamax sleaze” to kick off proceedings, which translates into a pre-club screening of cult classic The Warriors. This may be only the first of many visual treats as past events have featured everything from 360 degree visuals to a video-wall composed of old TV screens.

It’s remarkable that the four man group have built up such a popular and definite style in little over a year. They can certainly stand alongside Glasgow’s disco heavyweights, such as the monthly Melting Pot and RPZ club nights. This is the first outing of the group’s own solo club night in some time, and the Studio Warehouse party ought to properly allow Thunder Disco Club to treat their audience to the sounds and sights behind their rapid rise.
