London nightlife vs The Council

We can all mutually agree that clubs are the crown jewel of a city's innovation and the dynamic quality of its way of life, from Dubai to Berlin to Beirut.

The better the club scene, the better the music, craftsmanship and innovative scene. It's no fortuitous event that London's Silicon Valley of new companies was brought forth directly by Old Street and what was then the hippest region in the city to go clubbing.

Clubs have dependably been the genuine blends of cities, where individuals from all components of society blend in a way they wouldn't anyplace else. They're not exactly where individuals just dance, they're the place dreams are made, ideas are brought forth and connections are made and I know this because when I turned 18 clubbing ended up one of the greatest interests at that stage in my life. My friends and I would go clubbing every week without fail. We went to London’s biggest and finest clubs in big groups and have experienced every club London has to offer.

I must mention that unfortunately six youngsters lost their lives at Fabric nightclub over the 19 years its been open. Be that as it may, shutting it won't stop young adults from taking drugs when they go out to clubs, or take drugs where ever they decide to go out for the night. The potential closure of these clubs, especially Fabric isn’t really about controlling drug use or about the numerous deaths that have occurred in the past years, it is more so about cashing in more money to the Islington Council when it gets redeveloped into luxury apartments and this is why most clubs in certain areas are getting their licenses taken away which leads to the closure of the establishment.

Due to the closure of so many clubs, what the Council might not realise that is it ruining the city by taking away the speculative chemistry that makes London so bleeding exceptional in any case; who’s going to want to buy those luxury apartments when the vibe and the surroundings of the area has been ruined?

There's an entire age of individuals who won't have simple access to people in the creative industry such as DJs, performers and plenty of other talents who might inspire them. At the time where I used to regularly go clubbing there were a lot of t-shirt designers and artists that would work together to promote the club, and there where clubs that grew into record labels.

These are the type of connections made and the kind of developments clubs have brought forth in the creative industry. To conclude, I must say that culture and music are fundamental for creative development, it should be put resources into and not torn down.
