One of Sydney's longest running and most iconic nightclubs, Chinese Laundry, is undergoing a big makeover as of next month with the introduction of two brand new weekly and monthly club nights, new resident DJs and more. The revamped music programme, which officially kicks off on Friday 1 August, is the result of a new partnership with Ministry Of Sound's Soapbox Events - the team behind the highly successful Pacha at ivy.
The first of the new weekly parties kicking off at the club is BASSIC, which will take over every Friday night covering the full breadth of bass sounds including future, Australian sound, trap, d&b and bounce. BASSIC will also play host to two monthly events: club favourite BOSS BASS and KLPARTY, the latter of which hosted by Sydney DJ KLP from Triple J's House Party.
Saturday also gets a brand new night, LNDRY, which will focus on house, techno, electro and deep house with weekly line-ups of local residents such as Motez and Anklepants (yes, that dickface from Boiler Room) and regular international guests.
The new partnership will also see the return of Chinese Laundry's infamous garden parties to the Slip Inn courtyard this summer, as well as a neon-charged art installation set to adorn the club's walls curated by Brett Chan, Kyle Montgomery and Days One. All in all, it's exciting times ahead for the Sydney club.
