Dance Island

The legendary Dance Island. This place was once voted the best club in second life, had the highest traffic, 24 hour DJ schedule with a long list of DJ's, stand-by DJ's and trial DJ's and was even used in a RL trance video which featured on MTV. Nowdays, the club is less busy, however rarely found to be streaming radio even though it is open to party 24/7. This place truly is a 24/7 party place. However, it has been criticised for it's bots being used to boost traffic, a large noob crowd and a lot of drama filled resident clubbers. This was partly the cause of the club becoming less popular but in recent times there does seem to be a slight shift in the balance. Although not as busy as it used to be, the club is pretty much bot free, the DJ's are still spinning 24/7  and the music is some of the best tunes around. Either way, you'll always hear good tunes which tend to favour trance over softer house tunes.

The club itself was founded by Roxette Mabellon who herself can sometimes be heard spinning live from the club. Rezzing to the sim puts you in the middle of the mall, look ahead and past the palm trees and you'll see the large pyramid. Inside there is a large main dance floor with smaller stages spread around the DJ booth. The design itself is very open and has the feel of a majestic club. The music itself is it's main selling point. It highly promotes Trance which is not often found in most other clubs. Hard trance, uplifting, dream, it can all be heard here along with other styles. 

When I first rezzed in 2007 Dance Island was the No.1 club at the time. I myself had DJ'd to a sim of around 98 avatars. The place was always kicking, the banter between the clubbers was always great and the security there were quick to eject any screen spammers. DJ's like Audio Johnson and IceC001 Beaumont would expect a topal tip of approx 2000L$ for a two hour set.



It is yet to be seen if the club will ever go backto it's former glory. But it is still worth a trip to and it's not surprising that some of second life's top and busiest DJ's such as "Theartfullone Skytower" still have a regular DJ slot.
