Plastic People boasts the best sound system in Shoreditch. This friendly, unpretentious space serves up seriously fresh music to a loyal crowd. Their no-frills clubbing formula has won them a legion of devotees and provides a welcome contrast with many of the overly slick ditchland bars. On weekends the place is heaving, but you won’t mind rubbing up against such good looking types!
This is one of the most musically diverse venues in town, and you’ll hear any or all types of jazz, funk, house, latin, electro, afro beats and hip-hop — depending on the night. The musical standards are consistently high but there is nothing pretentious about the place, and the crowd come to get down. Plastic People know how to have fun.
