On the busy street-side of Fuxing South Road all seems peaceful, apart from violent hum of passing scooters and the rattle of the MRT tracks overhead; little hint is given of the raging party just two floors below. Below the footsteps of uninformed pedestrians the Beat is pounding and pulsating with tracks spun by some of the best Dj's in Taipei.

The Beat has quickly gained popularity from it's distinctive music style that features both house and hip-hop as an alternative to the EDM that is consistently favored by most clubs in Taipei. The Beat's regular hip-hop nights have filled a niche in the Taipei nightlife scene that had been open since Chess Club went upmarket and moved to the ATT building in Xinyi. At The Beat, dancing to hip-hop is inexpensive and unpretentious, as is the vibe of the club and it's friendly patrons. The Beat plays excellent music on state-of-the-art sound systems, and always hosts amazing local Dj's in addition to an impressive lineup of international Dj's.

The Beat is a great club and it is likely the best place to dance to real hip-hop in Taipei right now! As an affordable nightclub that throws parties that rival and outdo the Xinyi scene, The Beat is the best way to switch up your party schedule, and then make it a frequent occurrence.
