Named after the infamous dapper-dressed bluesman whose fiendish guitar playing and hedonistic ways — not to mention fabled satanic pact — made him the father of rock 'n' roll's long relationship with the dark side, Robert Johnson the club has plenty of that self-same ribald attitude.

A tiny space that packs in a clued-up crowd to check out ice-cold DJs like Gerd Janson, Dixon, Ricardo Villalobos and Harvey through its slick Martin Audio system, Robert Johnson has that intimate hip joint vibe down pat. Open all year round with weekly friday and saturday parties, they host a sunday party every two weeks. And with a record label and plush coffee table book bearing their insignia, the Robert Johnson name will continue to resonate far beyond its four bass shaken walls.
