Why do I love Emerald City Soul Club? Because ECSC is one night’s
blissful reprieve from the same old musical palette and constant
THUMP THUMP THUMP of other club nights. Every 45 that the DJs play
sounds familiar, even the ones I’m sure I don’t know, and every song
swings and spins and steps across a floor that’s been sprinkled with
baby powder for your dressed-up dancing pleasure. It’s perfect.
