While nightclubs are numerous in Second Life, and many (like the sub-orbital Inspire) succeed as only-in-SL social spaces, I rarely come across clubs that might work in both realities. Kromatic is one of those, as this cool video featuring DJ Ionic and a great, Boogie Nights-worthy crane shot attests. With its clean layout, abstract wall art, and abundant semi-private spaces, were Kromatic constructed in Manhattan or Los Angeles tomorrow, it would attract lines around the block by next week.
As it happens, the club seems to cater primarily to Spanish and Portuguese-speaking Residents; on a
brief visit, I met a girl from Barcelona named Ev Depres, tricked out in tattoos and an armband stuffed with dynamite, a fashion style that might best be described as Anarchist Waif. The other patrons briefly said Hello, then continued chattering in text studded with tildas and other curlicue symbols.
