Still flying high as Sao Paulo's only underground superclub, Renato Ratier's achingly cool spot for house and techno has a reputation that far precedes it. D-Edge's three stacked rooms designed by Multi Randolph are some of the most stylish we've come across.

The jet-black main room, with its flashing floor tiles and sound-sensitive walls, plays host to the highest profile names of their kind — Ellen Allen, M.A.N.D.Y, Soul Clap — while the classiest dance sounds in the city also resonate a slick, laser-stripped middle room and a space-age VIP spot up top.

With D-Edge Rio in the offing, residents nights like Moving and Freak Chic, and large-scale parties at Grand Metropole, D-Edge is only getting sharper.
