    According to the owner:
    For an intimate scene in the typically gratuitous clubland, Footwork is worth checking out. The smaller-than-the-standard club has its unmarked entranced tucked away in an alley off Brant street, giving it that alluringly taboo speakeasy effect. The alcohol is legally poured and pushed until last call, and post- 2am. the bar turns into an after hours party till the wee hours of the morning. The space is L-shaped, with a bar area at its apex, a lounge to relax in between sets, and the requisite dance floor. Adorned with metal bar tops, padded cubes for seating, and a mixture of faux leather, prissy Victorian, and tropical sunset wallpaper, the perimetre is plastered with an odd mash-up of flavours. The dance floor is usually crammed with the energetic crowd, and the DJ booth is the natural point of focus, framed with stage-like curtaining. Another atypical facet of Footwork is its style code; it’s a casual place, and so the sneaker- and jean-clad are permitted entry.
    The music at Footwork spans the house scene, bringing together the genres of electronic dance. From drum and bass, tribal, electro, techno, to trance, it ought to be the delight of the staunch house fan. Rehab Fridays feature an ever-changing line-up of local DJs, with cheap drinks served till midnight. Saturdays are a showcase of international talents, and Footwork’s large-scale sound system makes it a rip roaring good time.
