Red Envelope Clubs came to Taiwan in 1960s, trying to recreate the glamour of Shanghai nightlife. Now, there are only three such clubs left in Taiwan. They are called Red Envelope Clubs, because customers give red envelopes containing tips to the singers. If you are a good enough tipper, maybe a beautiful Shanghai Rose will share a few drinks with you at your table, or maybe something more.
We will invite several of the original Red Envelope Club singers to perform early in the evening. But this won’t be completely old school. The sound system will be our own, and after 11pm, the music will turn to electronic and avant-garde. So get a taste of old Taiwan, then party like you mean it!
Time:5/10 (六/Sat) 8pm - late
Place:Fenghuang Night Club 鳳凰大歌廳

★★★★ 夾子電動大樂隊 CLIPPERS ★★★★
The Clippers have always been about showmanship. Led by the comedian, performer and actor Xiao-ying (from the film Cape No. 7), they are one of Taiwan’s first bands to self-consciously bring retro-styles into rock. Here, Xiao-ying will prepare a special comedic set of music and comedy. He will also invite one of the regular singers from the Fenghuang Night Club to perform with the band.
★★★★ 放客兄弟 Funky Brothers ★★★★
Some say you can control your body, but can't control your heart. But the funky brothers will have you all out of control! Led by funk diva Airy Liu, who will fit the Red Envelope vibe with a classic chipao look, Taiwan's premier funk band will deliver one funky monster of a set.
★★★★ Kid Millionaire ★★★★
By incorporating samples and elements of Electro, House and DnB into their live show KID MILLIONAIRE has quickly become one of the most talked about bands in town. Call it DANCE-ROCK, ELECTRO-POP or anything else, one things for sure....you're going to dance.
★★★★ DJ MARCUS AURELIUS ★★★★
Playing Taiwan’s first ever Juke/Jersey Club Set! (Coz why not?)
DJ Marcus Aurelius first descended upon Taiwan 15 years ago from the Planet Chronicton and has been running laps around DJs at 33 1/3 rotations per minute ever since. Influenced by betel nut stains, hugs held too long, long lines at the ARC office, and the color gray, Aurelius plays anything and everything and all inbetween. Expect the unexpected when the sounds of Juke and Jersey club wreck Urban Nomad's dance floor all night long.
★★★★ DJ @LLEN (Just One Fix) ★★★★
When it gets late and groovy, who better to spin than the Godfather of Taiwanese electronica? Playing house, deep house, and deeper house.
