so long, the end

Legendary London club The End has announced it will be closing in January 2009, after an epic 13 years in action.

Founded in 1995 and run for the duration by sibling duo Layo & Zoe Paskin, the club was based entirely around music - no hype, no marketing - just passionate DJs playing great music, week in week out.

The list of guests and resident DJs reads like a who's who of the finest in underground music. Time will remember what was achieved by the venue and (as with CBGB's in NYC), it's always sad to hear of non-commercial clubs closing down.
