Mauritian Parties

[Dietmar]

Hey DJ EL-Syd!

Waz up mate ? Welcome to the Forum.

Nice Posting, could you tell us a bit more about the mauritian music scene in the UK ?

You are a mauritian DJ over there ? Tell us some more about clubs, music etc. Forum members will really appreciate anything they can get to know about Mauritius around the world. Me to!

Here in Germany we ain't got any mauritian music scene at all. That's probably because there are way too few mauritians ?

Hey mate!

Korrek net! Thanx for the prompt reply and the details. I enjoyed rerading it. I have some friends over there in the UK studying or living.

The Mauritian scene is really buzzing in the UK at the moment, especially with the newer generation rising to maturity.

Yo! How about France, i saw mauritians in many towns. In Paris there are a lot, lots of students to. But never heard of any scene - got any news 'bout that ?

Le Groupe Cassiya, Alain Ramanisum, Le Groupe Zotsa, Nancy Derougere, Jean Claude Gaspard, Michel Legris, Serge Lebrasse, Marie Michelle Etienne, Le Groupe Gangsta Beach, Gassen Singaron, Nitish Joganah and probably more coming over from Mauritius for live performances. And now we've got Grup Latanier and Le Groupe Négro Pou La Vi performing on 2nd October 2004, which reminds me that Alain Ramanisum is already in London today for a live concert tomorrow (Saturday 18th October).

Cool! I know all of them, have got mostly all tapes of the new Ragga stuff from the island. Has gangsta beach still the old members or did they change most of them ?
I knew Vincent & Marciano, we played basket ball in Grand Bay

In the meantime, you could always come over to the UK and party with us...

Yeah! I'll certainly do that someday.

Thanks for the links!

Hello everybody!

As I will be coming to Mauritius some time soon, I am not looking for Mauritian parties in Europe, but for parties in Mauritius itself

Can you tell me good spots for nightlife?
Where are the best discos and bars? Which kind of music do they play?

Thanx!
Steven

Hello Steven!

You are lucky that you are able to plan your party time on the island itself

The biggest spot for nightlife in Mauritius is Grand Bay. There you will find numerous cocktail bars, restaurants, lounges and discotheques.

The Banana Bar is a popular cocktail bar. Sometimes there is even some nice live music. Then there is another nice spot called Kapu Kai.

I have been to 3 discotheques in Grand Bay:
- Mojo Club, which offers local music and reggae, there have been not a lot of tourists when I have been there
- Buddha Club, which offers European and US music, some charts stuff and electronic music. This place has been loaded with tourists...
- Stardance, which offers mainly electronic music and wasn't my favourite spot to be...

Just take a look around, you will surely find some nice locations
Bye

Hey!
Thanks very much for all the information! So Grand Bay is the spot for nightlife, right? Seems I got to go there
When I am on the island I would also prefer to listen to some local music or to some nice reggae vibes, I can get the electronic stuff all the time at home So do you know some other locations where I got to listen to this stuff? Are there sometimes concerts on the island and where could I find out about this? Any good website?
Bye
