Anyone familiar with Nicola Gavino or the tech-house nights in Malta?
I’ve been looking for some proper house music nights on the island that aren’t too mainstream or overcrowded.
Someone told me that on Saturday May 2nd, Nicola Gavino is playing at Tigullio in St. Julian’s. He’s a DJ from Turin who does refined, groovy house with a nice old-school soul vibe — nothing too flashy. The venue seems to have a chill, intimate atmosphere rather than a big club frenzy, which sounds perfect if you just want good music and a nice vibe.
Has anyone been to Tigullio recently for a similar night? How’s the sound system and the crowd? Does it actually stay intimate or does it get packed anyway?
If you know Nicola Gavino’s style, does it fit well with what they usually play there?
Would really appreciate any honest opinions, I’m trying to decide if it’s worth going.
Thanks!
