      How a scene is born?
      A portrait of the pioneers of electronic music in Barcelona. A club that opened the door to Darren Emerson, Laurent Garnier, Jeff Mills, Derrick May, Slam, Carl Craig and has become the mainstay of the scene in Spain. And the seed of one of the most important festivals in the world, Primavera Sound and Sónar.
      In addition, the club experienced the birth of Dj Sidereal, who revolutionized the indie and underground scene in Barcelona through eclectic and vibrant sessions where electronic and pop merged creating a stunning new musical style.
      Around this club, a new industry was built. Music magazines became popular, graphic design took the streets and the flyers became an icon of the clubbing culture. It was a creative and innovative moment for festivals such as Sonar and Primavera Sound that left their marks on a whole youth generation life.
