Then & Now: New York City nightclubs

Dance music, house, techno and trance along with raves and all night (and day parties) became the all rage in several cities around the globe during the 1990s. However the biggest explosion of this kind of revelry seemed to occur on the Spanish island of Ibiza.

Ibiza unlike its other Balearic island neighbors, Mallorca, Menorca and Formentera, has a distinct party animal and boho vibe. Moreover it has long reigned as the party capital of the world as some of the best and most highly rated nightclubs are located here. Ibizas nightclubs are largely concentrated on two areas on this beautiful Island, around the capital of Ibiza town on the eastern shore and the resort town of Sant Antoni on the western shore.

So which are the clubs that rule the roost in Ibiza currently?

Space has been consistently voted the Best Club in the world by no less than the worlds top DJs. The club was initially built on a converted car park and it was subsequently redesigned so that today the worlds greatest DJs spin tunes from its famous Space decks from where the sound is transmitted throughout the club by way of a top of the line sound system. The clubs season opening and closing nights are like mini dance festivals that are known to attract more than 20,000 clubbers. Sunday nights though are the most popular nights at Space.

Club Pacha is a veritable institution on the Ibiza nightclub scene. This club was first established on a beach in Stiges in 1967 and it arrived in Ibiza in 1973. Since then it has spawned a global franchise that includes Pacha clubs in cities like New York, London and Buenos Aires. Pacha Ibiza stays open all year round. World renowned DJs like Peter Tong and David Morales have all enjoyed stints at Ibizas legendary Club Pacha.

Touted to be the biggest club in the world not only in Ibiza, Privilege has played host to many an international celebrity including P. Diddy, Madonna and Ibizas resident celebrity Jade Jagger. This gargantuan club which is topped with a 25 meter high ceiling is situated on the road between Sant Antoni and Ibiza Town. Privilege is adorned with tall windows that afford gorgeous vistas of the island and the club also houses a swimming pool. Due to its large size, the club can be changed around easily, thus Privilege promises a brand new experience to its patrons nightly.

SO the day of the biggest decision in Scotlands history has dawned.

After months of political arguments, expert analysis and trance-like dwams caused by the hypnotic effect of Alistair Darlings eyebrows, our minds are made up.

Its too late to alter the path of destiny, so today Ill nip down to the ballot box, tick a box, then dream a SuBo dream of the kind of country Id like to wake up in tomorrow.

It goes without saying that Iwant an efficient health service, top grade education, excellent carefor our elderly and sick, an employment boom, a thriving economy and free Tunnocks teacakes for all. Those are givens.

But as a working mother and political observationist (I may have made that term up), Ive a few extra requests. So whatever side comes out on top tomorrow, in our new political landscape, can I put in an order for the following?

1. Bigger budgets for childrens sports. Its time the politicians realised that insufficient funds for our clubs and organisations are landing parents in the supermarket circle of hell or, as its more commonly called, the fundraising bag pack.

2. Hiking up holiday costs in school holidays should be outlawed. Travel company bosses who refuse should be subjected to daily short-haul flights to Alicante on a budget airline until they see the error of their ways.

3. Lets scrap all ludicrous quangos. I couldnt care less about the preservation of the marshmallow or the study of the environmental effects of dung. All government bodies that dont contribute to any of the essential needs of the population should be binned. Please do not set up a quango to discuss this.

4. In a similar vein, lets junk the junket. Officials should be banned from going on foreign jollies. We dont need six councillors to stay four nights in a Hyatt Regency to examine irrigation systems in Fiji. The qualifying question to be asked of all trips is: If the same event was in a mud hut in Bognor Regis, would you still want to go?

Temples, treks and tigers are all well and good when youre on the road. But sometimes you just need to cut loose and party. With new party hot spots popping up all around the world, it can be tough to choose where to head for thumping base lines, shots of tequila and general debauchery.

I should add a special shout out to Beirut, Lebanon as my favourite party destination of recent travels but when it comes to pure party atmosphere, old is gold. Ibiza, in the Spanish Balearic Islands, has for years been one of the worlds party hotspot and regardless of the press it gets, not much has changed! The island is a proud possessor of some of the best and biggest nightclubs in the world but these famous dancefloors dont come cheap. Cover charges of $50 are common and $10 drinks may burn a hole in your wallet but sometimes you just need go crazy so change out of those flip-flops and vests, don your gladrags and check out 5 of Ibizas top clubs:

Space: Crowned with the title of being the Best Global Club at the International Dance Music Awards in 2005 and again in the year 2006 Space has captured the hearts of thousands and thousands of clubbers all over the world.
