Club Reports: Aero Bar, Oliv Bar, Grumpys Underground

Saturday night in the city and we began at downtown favorite Aero Bar.

Just as it should be on a Saturday night at Aero, resident DJ Dominick Morrison (USA) was in the perch playing House and EDM.

We know "The Dom" originally from his years as a resident DJ at Mannequins Dance Palace at Disney's Pleasure Island. 

Aero is a rooftop bar and the lasers were flying.

We had arrived last night just after they opened so the dance floor was still spartan but it gets packed by 11PM. Admission is free and you can roam into their other clubs such as The Patio & The Corner at no extra charge. 

From downtown Orlando to uptown Orlando. Our next stop was Oliv Bar, the little club with the big club inside.

Oh wow, we hadn't seen DJ Michelle Dalmeida (USA) aka DJ Michelle Furr-E in a few years!

House music all night long.

Just one couple dancing when we first arrived.

The bar was busier, lol.

DJ Miraxy (USA) was in the bartender role last night. They have a full liquor bar here.

Small club but big sound.

DJ Kris Kokopelli (USA) would take over later and continue the House vibe.

More House here next Friday night, August 15th, led by DJ Freeda Sol (USA) along with DJ Justin Davis (USA) and DJ Gary Menichiello (USA).   <<event postponed 

Grumpys Underground has become Orlando's de facto home of Breaks. It's located in the increasingly popular Mills/50 district of town.

We walked in to find DJ Orienquest (USA) in the booth.

Playing a mostly Breakbeat and perhaps Electro set.

There was a crowd!

The beats had the club bouncing.

We spotted lots of DJ's there last night including DJ JROK (USA) and DJ Roxytocin (USA).

Spotted in VIP: DJ Burufunk (USA), DJ Keri (USA) joined by Jennifer.

Spotted outside: DJ Shai Town (USA) and DJ Crudawg (USA)

Spotted after his set: DJ Orienquest and Darani.

We ran into lots of other peeps too. Happy Birthday Jennifer!

The special guest DJ took over next: DJ DMoney (USA)

He brought the beats with him from New Orleans where he is based.

Getting crazy!

That look you get from great Breaks.

The front patio emptied out and the dance floor got jammed.

A good time was had by all.
