Clubbing Shift 2026 Q1 Version
Shy People’s Guide to China Mainland’s Club Scene
03.18 2026
Somewhere you’d like to go and take notes. This list includes the majority of clubs in China. It focuses exclusively on venues I have personally visited, as well as a select few run by friends or highly recommended by trusted DJs. It is fluid-the scene shifts rapidly, but the underground spirit remains constant. Honour the local scene and the real human connections on the dancefloor.
📍 上海 (Shanghai) (E1 — Mature scene & clued-up crowd)
- Heim: The best dance floor in Shanghai in my opinion. Exceptionally cozy with a highly "clued-up" rave crowd. The crew feels like a genuine family, making you feel right at home. [200, d&b audiotechnik] @heimshanghai
- wigwam: A sophisticated and chilled-out listening bar. DJ sets usually run from 10PM to 1-3 AM. [200, SILVERLINE/TPI/VOID] @wigwam.live
- Exit: Low-key, focused, and resilient. An underground institution that has evolved through various incarnations. [200, Funktion-One] @exitshanghai
- ILLUM: A newly opened spot with crystal-clear sound.The dance floor is tailor-made for subcultural youth. Highly recommended. [150, Funktion-One] @illum_club
- Potent: A queer-friendly space featuring a solid 4/4 floor alongside a more commercial room. Great acoustics. While the crowd isn't exclusively ravers, the energy isconsistently high. They exclusively self-curate and do not accept unsolicitedbookings. @potent_club
- byyb Radio: A community radio station broadcasting live and online every weekend. It bridges the city's diverse scenes through an eclectic range of music and programming. @byyb.radio
- LIQUID DOLLS: A basement-level video radio station focusing on post-internet and subcultural trends. An excellent practice ground for emerging local DJs. Underground, hip, and open to international DJ submissions. @liquid_dolls_sh
- ROAM: A restaurant/bar with a dedicated floor exclusively for an intimate House music dance floor. @roam_shanghai
- Cedar Kitchen: An experimental DIY garage space sharing a wall with byyb. Expect "nerdy" music and a cool, raw vibe. They are opening a second location near ILLUM later this year. @cedarshanghai
- Reactor: A massive club/live house opening in late March. ⚠️ Note: Major shareholders are linked to the Beijing venue Zhao Dai, which holds a controversial reputation regarding its inclusivity toward women and the queer community. Despite a lack of public discourse, June 2025 marked a significant turning point for many in the scene following an unreported physical altercation.
📍 北京 (Beijing) (N1 — Historic city & deep rave culture)
- Pillbox: Currently the coveted spot in town, boasting a massive dance floor. While primarily focused on Hard Techno, they are beginning to diversify. Extremely high demand-booking is a challenge. [500, Element 5] @pillbox_beijing
- Dada: A long-standing institution; notably regarded as the sanctuary for Bass music in Beijing. [200, L-Acoustics] @dadabarbeijing
- Groundless Factory: A sprawling space with a vast dance floor, hosting a curated mix of art exhibitions and Techno events. [600, Void] @groundlessfactory
- postpost: A multi-hyphenate cafe/shop with its own radio station. Free entry and music until midnight (XDJ setup). Contact DJ TRUCK for postpost radio inquiries. @postpostspace @8adpreacher
- SOLO: A compact bar with punchy sound, focusing mainly on 4/4 beats. [50, Funktion-One] @solo_beijing
- With Bar: A Listening Bar & Cocktail Lounge in 798 Art District. [70, Diatone] @withbar_beijing
- Zhao Dai: Formerly considered the gold standard in China for years. ⚠️ Warning: Currently flagged by parts of the core community for being women/queer-unfriendly.
📍 成都 (Chengdu) (SW1 — Great scene & amazing food)
- ? (TBD) : New venue opening soon this year. Stunning lakeside views in the heart of a park. Poised to become one of the finestin China, alongside OlL. Just wait and see. [200-250, Funktion-One] @toanothergalaxy
- GONG: A record shop/cafe bar that servesas China's premier hub for (Leftfield) Bass and Footwork. Run by genuine music nerds. Intimate floor, great acoustics, and an impeccable vibe. [200, Turbosound] @gong.cdc
- CDCR: An online radio station that doubles as an offline hangout for beer and music. Hosted at Yitong Record Shop. @cdcr.live
- HakkaBar: A rooftop bar located next to Yitong. Co-founded by a club owner and a DJ friend. @hakkabarchengdu
- NU Lab: A new club featuring two rooms and a rooftop listening bar. [200/100/60, Funktion-One/Turbosound] @nulab.cn
📍 深圳 (Shenzhen) (SE1 — The unique outlier in a business city, very Close to HK)
- OIL: A powerhouse featuring a massive main room and a top-tier sound system.They cover the full spectrum of club genres and are widely regarded as the best in China (at this moment). The second room offers an intimate space for diverse musical and event directions. Boasts a strong resident crew and impeccable service. Hard to book, but absolutely worth the effort. [250/60, Danley Sound Labs] @oilclub_official
📍 Regional Spots (Emerging scenes)

- Gum: A fresh, intimate club open to both 4/4 and Bass music. [80, Bassline] @gum_guangzhou

- CCR.Live: A free video radio station within a record shop/cafe setting. A collaboration between Riff and Folideng Cafe. @changsha_community_radio
- 大理 (Dali) (SW2 — Beautiful travel destination)
- POOLS: A small, mature floor with high-quality sound. Very House-friendly. [80, Funktion-One] @poolsdali

A New Event Series
Final Illusion 01
— Smash Your Clocks!
03.20 2026
@wigwam
算法穷尽之处，幻觉起笔之时。
全新活动系列 Final Illusion 是一个由 DJ 用声音构筑“作者电影”的实验系列。我们背弃功能主义，邀请 DJ 以直觉为笔，描绘意识流动的叙事曲线，探寻世界的广阔。
Final Illusion: Where algorithms end, illusions begin.
An experimental series where sound becomes Auteur Cinema. Departing from functionalism, we invite DJs to wield intuition as a pen, mapping the narrative arcs of consciousness and the world beyond.

台北风情过境签
LinGia — House of Witch
02.25 2026
去年 12 月 27 日在 Heim 举办的首场 Butterfree 派对被一众 raver 誉为年度最佳酷儿氛围！以上视频正好抓到了 LinGia 在控台最后时刻的经典台语歌 edit。我也因此认识了这位 DJ 不久但是风格外放的台北酷儿。Shy People Mix 邀请怎能少？
出乎意料的是 LinGia 交过来一份 110 分钟的深厚大礼！不仅可以听到她特有的幽默感觉，台湾风情，纵览中外酷子新旧曲目的阅历（选到 JZKL！），在动感之外许多段落的情绪特别饱满丰富……
The inaugural Butterfree party at Heim last December 27th was hailed by ravers as the "Queer Vibe of the Year"! The video above captures the exact moment LinGia dropped her classic Hokkien song edit during the final minutes of her set. That night introduced me to this Taipei queer talent—someone who, despite being a relatively new DJ, possesses an incredibly expressive and outgoing style. A Shy People Mix invite was inevitable.
To my surprise, LinGia delivered a massive 110-minute gift! It’s a deep dive that showcases her signature humor, Taiwanese flair, and an impressive repertoire of queer anthems—both old and new, local and international (including a nod to JZKL!). The mix is also layered with profound emotional passages...
“古早时代，女巫透过吟诵获得通往宇宙的力量；现代女巫则以电子频率接通星云波动。时光荏苒；月娘盈缩，她们依旧在夜晚聚集在 House 的音律中集结谈论爱与恨，也在 Underground 预言死亡或者重生，Drag 黑暗与光明里，溯古通灵、共谋温暖。” —— LinGia
"In ancient times, witches channeled the universe through chants; modern witches connect to the nebula through electronic frequencies. As time flows and the moon waxes and wanes, they still gather at night, converging within the rhythms of House to speak of love and hate. In the Underground, they prophesy death or rebirth; dragging between darkness and light, they trace ancient spirits and conspire for warmth." — LinGia
LinGia 的名字来自闽南语「恁姊仔」的发音，既是亲密的召唤，也象徵一种不受规则束缚，跨越性别疆界的态度。她的选曲拒绝单一风格的框限，任由情绪牵引、气味流动、不拘一格，自由游移。自2023年起，她作为 HomoPleasure 成员，透过「Qoo Pa 酷趴踢」游击式派对计画，与各地酷儿组织并肩共振，持续开启关于身体、节奏与共感的流动实验。
她随 HomoPleasure 与 Kemical SistaS 登场 Wonderfruit Festival、澳洲悉尼 Mardi Gras Queer Festival 巡演，并登上Rydeen 的 FBi Radio 节目。
The name LinGia originates from the Hokkien phrase "Lín-ché-á" (恁姊仔)—an intimate calling that symbolizes an attitude of defiance against rules and the blurring of gender boundaries. Her selections refuse the confinement of a single genre; instead, she lets raw emotion lead, allowing scents to drift and styles to interweave in a state of boundless freedom.
Since 2023, as a member of HomoPleasure, she has been a driving force behind the "Qoo Pa" guerrilla party series. By vibrating in sync with queer collectives across different regions, she continues to initiate fluid experiments centered on the body, rhythm, and shared empathy.
Her journey has seen her perform with HomoPleasure and Kemical SistaS at Wonderfruit Festival, tour Australia for the Sydney Mardi Gras Queer Festival, and appear on Rydeen’s show on FBi Radio.

Jacquie Meng — 女性自画像与 crazy stupid fun 的墨尔本派对
02.04 2026
Jacquie Meng: Clock Face (2024)她是谁？
创作本周五 Roza Terenzi 演出海报的艺术家 Jacquie Meng 出生于杭州，现居墨尔本。穿梭于绘画、声音与装置之间。其创作旨在重塑一种超越国界与地域界限的“流动的离散身份”。
她关注后人类视角下的身份表达，捕捉意象在不同文化间的游移。她认为身份并非受限于躯壳，而是投射于万物之中：在器物与图腾里，在每一个偶然的瞬间与独特的怪癖中，亦或在那些被折叠进日常的社会实践里，身份正悄然浮现。

Jacquie Meng (b.1998, Hangzhou) works with painting, sound, and installation. Her work redefines diasporic cultural identity beyond national and geographical specificities, rather seeing it as unfixed. Through consideration of posthumanism, performativity, and the migration of objects and imagery between cultures, Meng explores the ways that identity can be reflected beyond the body: it can be revealed through objects, patterns, chance encounters, idiosyncrasies, as well as through embedded cultural and social practices.

The Mirror of "Her"
SP：你的画作中经常出现一位充满活力、无所畏惧且模糊了性别界限的女性形象。她是你理想化的自画像吗？在去年我和你的短暂面对面接触看来，你本人也拥有同样开朗、随和的个性。
SP: Your paintings often feature a vibrant, fearless female figure who blurs gender boundaries. To me, you share that same bubbly, easy-going personality. Is she an idealized self-portrait? Is this "fearless" stance a specific energy you want to empower contemporary women with?

JM：画中的形象首先源于我自己，但她们所代表的意义远不止于我个人。她们是 “女性特质” 及其相关审美（如可爱、玩偶感）的化身。我发现这些审美元素具有强大的力量，而不仅仅是柔弱。那些看似开朗、可爱的外表，其实也是我表达奇诡、阴暗和诡谲的一种方式，这让我觉得非常有趣。
JM: The people in my paintings are first and foremost drawn from myself, but they are representative of something more than just myself. They are representative of femininity and the aesthetics which are often associated with that, such as cuteness and doll-like-ness. These are aesthetics which I find powerful rather than just soft and gentle. What seems bubbly and cute is also a way through which I can express strangeness, darkness and the uncanny, which I find interesting.

脉络与对话
Lineage & Dialogue
在你的人生中，谁塑造了你早期对 “美” 和 “个性” 的认知？你是否将自己的艺术视为一场与身处完全不同语境下的女性进行的跨文化对话？
Who shaped your early perception of "beauty" and "individuality"? Do you see your art as a cross-cultural conversation with women living in entirely different contexts?

我的妈妈、奶奶，还有《霹雳娇娃（Charlie's Angels）》。女性特质一直存在于我的艺术中，并不断以微妙或显眼的方式进化和改变。女性特质存在着一些能引起每个人共鸣的视觉元素，尽管方式各不相同。
my mum, my grandma and charlies angels. Femininity is always present in my art and it is always evolving and changing in subtle and not so subtle ways. I think there's visual elements to femininity that resonate with everyone even if in different ways.

I think painting is a visual language that communicates beyond words. It shouldnt have set-in-stone interpretations.

我和 Claire de Carteret 合作制作了一个幸运大转盘和一些苹果雕塑。能为音乐节而非画廊搞创作真的很有趣，这和我喜欢设计派对传单的原因很像。大转盘是具有互动性的，那个周末听到大家告诉我他们都在问转盘什么问题，感觉非常有意思。
I made a wheel of fortune and apple sculptures in collaboration with Claire de Carteret. It was really fun to make something for a festival setting and not for a gallery, similar to why I enjoy party flyers. The wheel was interactive and it was fun to hear people telling me the questions they were asking it over the weekend.

If you had to describe Melbourne’s party scene in three words, what would they be? What is it about this local "soil" that heals you the most?
疯狂、傻气、好玩。它是治愈的，因为在这里永远有事可做，也永远有人陪你一起。
Crazy stupid fun. It is healing and there is always something to do and someone to do it with :)

闲聊的艺术
The Art of Small Talk
墨尔本的社交文化建立在大量的闲聊之上，舞池里也不例外。你如何看待这种看似浅薄实则微妙的社交仪式？
Melbourne thrives on small talk even on dance floor. How do you view this seemingly shallow yet subtle social ritual? Which one do you dread hearing the most?

我不太擅长闲聊。当我不小心摆出那种天生臭脸时，最怕听到的就是：“你还好吗？”
I am bad at small talk but the one thing I dread hearing the most is (When im accidentally doing my resting bitch face): "Are you okay?"

当代 Electro 与 Breakbeat 复兴运动的领军坐标，社群 “能量源” Roza Terenzi，2 月 6 日，正式登陆 Heim 俱乐部 “爱乐之岛 Lala Land”，献上一场长达 150 分钟、完美展现满溢女性生命力的锐舞精神乐章。
一场属于本地社群的 “尾牙收官祭”，Shy People 六周年 x Heim 俱乐部蛇年封箱派对。由 YKK、CHERONII 与 10000 全力护航。
CHERONII (fka OFFSKII) 的成长史横跨苏格兰的狂野现场、纽约的酷儿叙事与上海地下社群的十多年实践。现居杭州，她的音乐是部落律动与迷幻质感的结合体。通过提取原始 Acid 的能量、Techno 的感官诱惑以及 Breakbeat 的灵动，她建立起了一套独特的听觉坐标系。“流动性”是其表达方式，而对声音质感的极致追求与强烈的感官驱动，则是她每一场演出背后不变的基石。
装载好奇心的游牧者，10000 流连于锐舞银河的恩典之中。他并不急于定义终点，在不断迭代的节奏、速度与情绪纹理中，维系一种持续的动力。旧与新、此与彼，在当下的切片里汇聚为一。透过其掌管的主题乐园 Shy People 与虚幻旅行系列 N3V3R1AND，为那些处于流动光谱中的声音，开辟一块暧昧的自由栖息地。
作为当代 Electro 与 Breakbeat 复兴的领军者，她是澳大利亚地下电子音乐输出全球的重要偶像。她的音乐人格与形象交织出一种鲜明的先锋女性气场与无畏精神。通过将世纪交替时的复古舞曲基因与现代前卫手法精准缝合，她的 DJ set 不仅构筑出兼具宇宙感与俏皮色彩的氛围，更将澳洲特有的户外派对（Doof）中那种粗粝、跳跃的原始脉冲带入舞池。
YKK，成长于北京，现活动于上海。他着迷于俱乐部音乐的各类分支变种，从欧陆到英式再到广袤的南半球。愉悦、动感、变化和螺旋上升的振奋能量，是他所持的混音律条。这些都市色彩的声音，往往又因他自身的酷儿性而平添一份骚气，奔着享乐主义而去。控台之外，他是音乐设计组合 MENSLIES 的二分之一同时也主理着系列活动“团结湖 United Lakes”，以俱乐部音乐的流动性来团结众人。
创作本次海报的艺术家 Jacquie Meng 出生于杭州，现居墨尔本。穿梭于绘画、声音与装置之间。其创作旨在重塑一种超越国界与地域界限的“流动的离散身份”。她关注后人类视角下的身份表达，捕捉意象在不同文化间的游移。她认为身份并非受限于躯壳，而是投射于万物之中：在器物与图腾里，在每一个偶然的瞬间与独特的怪癖中，亦或在那些被折叠进日常的社会实践里，身份正悄然浮现。
