Limbo Dance Club has been celebrated as the original house club since the first summer of love in 1988.

Playing an array of music genres including Chicago House, Detroit techno, Italo House, Belguim New Beat, blissful Balearic beats, and Acid House, Limbo DC garnered high regard as the official nucleus of Perth’s underground House Music community. 

The Limbo Social Club reunion party will showcase four original resident Limbo Club DJs – JJ, Adil Bux, Colin Clark and Dave Jackson – uniting in homage to Limbos esteemed resident DJ Roy ‘The Boy’ Jopson (RIP).
