A vast, endearingly scruffy space above (and part of) a pool center (snooker, not swimming!) is the unusual location for one of Amsterdam's edgiest clubs. It's regularly inhabited by ardent followers of nights such as Club Rascal who purvey the finest indie music around; gay electro, techno and minimal night, UNK; and Burlesque Freakout, a wicked...

Address: Rembrandtplein 17, Amsterdam 1017 AC
Amsterdam's most underground club is located, rather incongruously, on the neon-lit, touristic Rembrandtplein, and its rather basic interior couldn't be more in contrast to some of its grander neighbours. The 300-capacity club has two areas and is where you'll hear cutting-edge electronic dance music, experimental techno, or experience one of its...
