What's wrong with drinking and meeting girls? People have different reasons for going out. If die hard music fans were the only ones paying a cover, afterhours clubs would never be able to stay open for business. Do what you want, have a great time, and show others the same respect.

I'm not saying that chasing girls is bad at all...But if I go to Buena Note or to Santos with one of my group of friends, they're not going there for the musical experience. 1) Dress well, 2) Get crunk, 3) Get some crunked out girls. That's your goals pretty much.
While if you go to an after-hour, you're going for the musical experience. 1) Dress confy, 2) Get candy, 3) Enjoy the experience with your crew + crowed.
Two totally different experiences.

These are your take on how you see these places. If you think the majority of people go to afterhours clubs just for the music, you're being naive. I personally agree with your take on it, but I don't expect everyone else to. Again, do it the way you see fit, and allow others the same respect.

tail is the bonus if everything else is there but hard to find a solid combo of everything during earlier hours (vibe, fresh music, girls, large scale, etc)

Shonguiz, maybe your best best for large-scale crowd and fresh music during reasonable hours would be Piknic. As you mentioned earlier, the big regular-hours clubs are playing cheese, unfortunately.

seeeing how sold out it was from event like nicole moudaber.carl cox.danny tenaglia.dubfire.richie hawtin! these r not even that mich undwrground djs

can those djs fill out a venue like new city gas!? why dont they boook a little bit more of underground stufff in bigger clubs?? the douchbags will still be gettin their 3000 dolla table. and i bet a bunch of people would b willin to pay 40 bux to c them.

i went to crap dash berlin last weeek and it was totalllly packed.

I'd say Stereo Nightclub and UN (if they didn't change since last time I went). Not sure anything can top that in town.
Those are the best for Progressive House.

For Techno, you'll get your dose of progressive techno at Stereo Nightclub also.

Now, as of Trance, there is not that much venues honestly, I don't think there's even one venue that hosts top quality trance (underground). Underground event producers are normally renting a room for their underground raves (eg: Tech-Safari by Rikam)

Top quality EDM in clubs is mainly oriented towards Progressive Techno/House.

I hope there would be more choice but that's almost all about it.

edit: I forgot to mention Igloofest and Piknik Electronik

Actually, Circus pretty much has all the progressive house bookings right now.

At the moment, yes. Stereo still book the best progressive house DJs (tribal).

I woulnd't answer Circus to the question asked in the thread, it's way too much commercial (trance bookings and top 40 room)

How is tribal house & progressive house the same thing?

Does UN still even exist? I think it's called Peopl now.

As for trance, I'm far from an expert, but I think Le Passeport still has weekly or bi-weekly events.
