I Future Primitive at The Venue. 10pm—3am. £2. 7 Oct. Monthly. A new monthly night of quality dance right across the spectrum. What starts on a downtempo electro tip moves into dubby house, then slamming techno and hard house and finally into the 1994—96 jump up jungle era for ‘the stamina crew’. Absolute respect to anyone starting a new night in Edinburgh at the moment (squeezing a Sumo wrestler through a keyhole would be an easier mission) and a double ‘nice one’ for trying something a little different. Show your support,
peogle.

I Barry Cabanas at Eden. 11pm-3am. £6.99 (£5.99 members; £5 nutty dressers). 15 Oct. Monthly. It seems like only yesterday that we blagged our way into a certain launch party and were offended by lots of hardcore pornography proudly plastered (with what adhesive, we’d rather not know) throughout the toilets. Believe it or not, it has been a whole year since Barry’s first opened their doors to the misguided who love nothing more than dressing up and baring their souls (among other bits) to the world. We would like to go all teary-eyed and reminisce about all the madcap nights, but we know that they would tell us to shut up and stop being such a girl, so bugger it, here’s the line-up instead. Seeing as the Cuban Brothers are off
