Moscow

there are some nice venus here...
First of all "Solyanka". It's very friendly club with very nice people inside every weekend. If you come in the middle of october you will be able to find yourself in very nice space disco party called 'Odyssey: Get sirius' with foreign guests. It is held every second saturday of every month. Other weekend mostly techno/minimal/house stuff, sometimes very nice btw. And good hiphop/funk parties every thursday. Solyanka is opened every day as very cool restaurant.

Second place to visit - Propaganda, one of the oldest club in Moscow. Music - mostly house, but very nice house. And btw me and my friends (Deutschmark and Phones24 here) we organize there our parties. From this month twice a month on wensdays. In the beginning of every month old school house/techno parties (with some chicago, detroit, eurohouse, electro stuff) and disco parties in the end of month. So come by)

Also we have fashion bar Simachev. It's rather pricey venue, but there practically every day nice music inside (disco, electrofunk, deep house etc.) Sometimes cool guests like Todd Terje, Cosmo Vitelli... Art director of this local has nice taste in music, he is also good dj.

I think there are the main places in moscow to have a great party.

The guy behind Between Us and Shanti labels (who released the recent Move D 12") regularly throws parties @ Shanti Club on thursdays with the likes of A Guy Called Gerald, Octex, Substance etc.

DJ Rob Dirton (aka phones24) is a wednesday resident in a very friendly dj cafe Kult.

Am considering a weekend in Moscow soon, a long way to go for just a couple days but a friend is there only until September and i can't get more time off work...

.... do you have an idea if the futurists exhibition at the Pushkin Museum is still on? It opened late June but can't see anything about it on their official website....

any record stores where you can find scratchy, operatic russian folk music on LP?

found this site of constructivist architecture but don't know if they are easily accessible or really worth the visit in person?

ummm annnd..... any part of Moscow that is nice for wandering around and discovering things, better less touristy?

annnnd - any websites with recommendations of food, dumpling spots, anywhere that's actually old or even family-run? i read about cafe pushkin but it sounds too sort of trendy, new-old....

in Pushkin museum all kinds and all periods of international arts are presented.  you can find some works of avant-gardists there. but it isn't the museum of contemporary art...

about nice places... Moscow is very strange city... not very beautiful but attractive. better if you come to the center (Pushkinskaya square) and than star to walk along boulevards and streets and dark alleys)).. could find nice places though..
