The Other Side is a new nightclub opened by Ling Wei (凌威), the owner of Taipei’s long-standing Roxy venues. The new club is a “party-until-the-sun-comes-up” spot like one of Ling’s past ventures, the now-closed Roxy Vibe, but The Other Side promises a classier atmosphere, with sofa seating and a modern lounge interior befitting of its locale in Taipei’s East District. House DJs spin classic dance and rock from bands like Nirvana, The Ting Tings, Oasis, The Cure and Michael Jackson
