Rex Club is a club dedicated to electronic musics since almost 20 years now, which makes us the oldest place of this kind in France, and I guess in the world. From the pioneers of acid house (Mike Pickering, Andrew Weatherall) to the latest generation of groove explorers (Miss Kittin, Black Strobe), Techno pioneers (Underground Resistance, Dave Clarke etc...), Breakbeat, new urban styles, like electro hip hop, nu soul... .The adventure goes on. Laurent Garnier has had many residencies here, that have become some of the most famous in electronic musics in France, and abroad : Wake up, Stereomaniac, for instance.
The Rex is also famous for its innovative soundsystem. 10 years ago, we installed a first new soundsystem, powerful and acurate. People have come from all over Europe to attend parties here because of this soundsystem... In september 2006, we installed a new revolutionnary one. It has 70 speakers all over the ceiling. This multidiffusion system has been specially designed for the club. It is the first time such a complex system is set up in a club in the world.
In 2008, the REX CLUB celebrated 20 years of Electronic Music. Howedays, rare are clubs in the world who can pretend to celebrate 20 years of Electronic Music! In may 2008, form the 14th till 31st , the main dj's were succeeding in the REX dj booth: Laurent Garnier, Jeff Mills, Miss Kittin, Rhythm & Sound, Green Velvet, Dave Clarke, Larry Heard ...
