STEREO

Every city has an undisputed gem in its clubbing crown, a dark ruby its loyal clubbers covet. For the ravers of Montreal, it's undoubtedly Stereo. Circus Afterhours might steal the big-room vote, but for those in town who favour more understated forms of house and techno, Stereo — with its slick, jet-black, red-stripped décor — is a cut above the rest. Damian Lazarus, Seth Troxler, Maceo Plex, James Holden and Sasha are just some of the names who played at this classy late hours club in 2013, in a city that keeps on goin' well into the following day.
