London superclub matter will close for the summer.Music Week fabric . Housed in the Millennium Dome, its numbers suffered from its far-flung location, but the experience of the club itself was often described in glowing terms, most notably its soundsystem and "body kinetic dance floor." Accounts published elsewhere have claimed that the company owes more than three million pounds to creditors. Nonetheless, the club hosted parties featuring house and techno brands such as Cocoon and Circo Loco, drum & bass legends Andy C and Goldie and more pop-orientated affair like Method Man and Candi Staton. Its temporary closure leaves the city with only Ministry of Sound reliably catering to fans of the big-room dance music experience. 139 Comments
