There is something quite appealing about hitting the clubbing dancefloor on Christmas Day, a time when most of the masses here in the UK will either be sunk into their sofas after an indulgent day of dinner devouring & plenty more, while others will be with family, following the festive traditions that are part & parcel (no pun intended) of Christmas Brit style. Yet for many others, particularly our continental cousins, Christmas Day has a totally different ]and feel to it, much of the festive celebrations having taken place the night before, leaving Christmas Day free to do the sort of things the UK would reserve for Boxing day, clubbing quite high on the list. Indeed we have sampled a slice of this continental Christmas Day clubbing, having stepped out onto the Red & Blue dancefloor two years ago, while we are sure plenty will be doing the same in Rome tomorrow night (Tues 25th Dec), when Splash opens its disco doors, welcoming its own special Santa of sounds, the guest D.J. stocking slot being filled by the cute & cuddly Andrei Stan, who jets into the Italian capital from his base in Brussels.

 

So, with our précis prelude posted, here is the dinky detail of this merry meet…

…while the Splash Roma PR team go into detail of their new venue home….

 

The Saponeria was born in 1998 from the ashes of an old soap factory in Via of the Argonauts, in the district of Ostia. The history of locality summarizes the mutations that Ostiense has undergone over time, converted from an industrial area into the epicentre of entertainment activities that are put to good use the great wealth of industrial archaeology inherited abandonment of several buildings in the early years The Saponeria is a structure, divided between space and track private room, designed to enhance the musical experience perceived by the public. After extensive restyling dictated by the attention more and more constant musical experience and the latest trends in modern design, Saponeria is today marked by a minimalist style that tends to enhance its original nature and bring it closer to the atmosphere of a large and sophisticated architectural soft. An example of foresight stylistic and structural, as well as the Saponeria a lighting system and innovative brand, is characterized by a system of “video art projections”, called “Mapping”, a first in Roman heritage.”

 

So, a very merry Christmas comes from Splash Roma and a festive frolic well worth sinking into, one that carries our extra bites recommendation, meaning, if you find yourselves in Roma tomorrow night, you should “Go There! Be There! (DISCO MATT)

 

About discomatt

The History........................................................Created in 2008 after a short period of blogging under his real name, the pseudonym, “Disco Matt”, was born on the back of a reputation for being London’s original party boy having partied and clubbed across the London gay scene since in mid 1990’s.........................................................Through his series of blogs via individual blogging pages which soon morphed into a full blown website (http://discomatt.com), Disco Matt established himself as an independent journalist come columnist who quickly gained a reputation for supporting & promoting one of the world’s most prolific clubbing scenes. He previewed, reviewed & recommended London gay clubs, as well as the diverse gay/metrosexual London club/bar culture, linking to & reviewing the scene top D.J.’s and generally covering the gay scene including international gay events....................................................Regularly reporting on the top events across the scene, Disco Matt’s reviews, over the years, developed a strong following, not just by clubbers, D.J’s, promoters, music producers & scene faces, but people far and wide that were looking for an insight to the incredible scene that was London. He also previewed upcoming events that signalled, either a major change or update of existing clubs, new ventures on the gAylist/metrosexual scene, or where he considered events that deserved more comprehensive coverage to that provided in other posts.............................................However, having pretty much reached the top of his game in his chosen specific field, due to a number of personal predicaments, challenges & changes in his life priorities, Disco Matt parked his writing and operation in February 2014. While the burning desire to continue remained, what this much needed period of inactivity did provide was the time & space to re-think & re-focus his activities on a broader spectrum of media and entertainment............................................................So, following this long two year lay-off, he built up the foundations for this diversification into the areas of film, theatre, radio & television where his reviewing, recommending & reporting was to be replicated & resurrected, also pointing his promotions through more visuals & video's linked to all these areas along with his core activities and passions ................................................................................The Present....................................After another (shorter) period of lay-off from mid 2016, a life changing event reignited his passion and early into 2017, Disco Matt has delivered on his promise for a new, more modern look to his website, shedding the old & tired skin in favour of something far more in keeping with the times and with his blogging roots. And he has waived a fond farewell to his clubbing days, this having also been ditched from his site & activity, rather now just focussing on the genres of film, theatre, radio, television, video and of course, music, in so doing, aiming to broaden his appeal to a much wider audience interested in the latest most cutting edge areas of media & entertainment.............................................................................His aim is to be highly regarded across the industry for his writing in these fields and ultimately become a full time critic in film &/or theatre.
