Stone Lounge.

Fabricated throws monthly parties there. It's small, it's intimate, great music, amazing and really friendly crowd, and an awesome bartender.

I've described the venue to others as 'Dancing in your best friend's basement'. It is the basement of 'revival' which is upstairs, which plays hip hop karaoke, so don't go there. It has a fireplace off to one side, low ceilings, hardwood floors, stone and brick walls, lots of booths with couches to sit and chat with nice ambient lighting. the sound on the dancefloor is pretty good I would say. It's also centralized, so when you decide to have a chat with your friends off the dancefloor you don't have to shout to be heard.

I wish it was more than a monthly thing, but I guess that helps keep it 'special'.

They had Neil Quigley there for boxing day, it was AMAZING. They also had Brad Copeland, Jon Tremblay and Sean Crawford back in November, also a great night.

Chris irGO is playing there this week. I think I'm gonna go check it out for a bit. His recent February Podcast really makes me want to get out and dance. Give it a listen if you use iTunes. I think it's also been posted in the Househead thread - just search for it.

Cheers.

"Even me?" she said.
I thought, "Oh right, if I categorically eliminate all other people, it's just me and her. She'd like that.
"Especially you" I said.
"You are virtually the ring leader, the way I see it."
Then, I blew out the candle.

Oh yeah - Pretty much any pat boogie party is guaranteed to be a good time. Cobra on Fridays have been really good!

Thanks dude! I'm gonna check out all of the info you posted. Ideally I'd like everyone invited to a party to have the option of just sitting around and chatting with friends or going off and dancing. I'm surprised there aren't more places like this in Toronto.

Stone lounge for sure. I will probably be there on Fri if I don't do Cobra, all depends on what my buddy from the Uk decides to do (TOTA that moved there).

I think Foundation Room on the weekends by Church and Front still plays deep house. It's very loungy but the music can be a bit loud. But yeah I see a lot of older late 20'ish type people there there. It's a very good atmosphere, no cover, and looks amazing inside.

Def. Stone Lounge.

Sometimes Li'ly Lounge (downstairs), also on College, has nights w/Deep House locals. I don't think they get any internationals though.

If you want somewhere to just chill and drink (there is no dancefloor), Insomnia @ Bathurst and Bloor usually has a DJ playing deep house in the back. And, it's an amazing restaurant/martini bar. Great for a date night :P Very sexy, chill vibe in there..... One of my fav. spots in the city by far.
