The dedicated DJs and electronic music fans behind London’s The End put together this beautiful video tribute for their club, which will close forever this weekend (*sigh).

The End is (was) one of the world’s best dance music clubs, and its owners showed nothing but 100% love to quality electronic music (a rarity amongst club owners).

This 20-minute video features interviews with the club’s owners and the DJs behind what was one of the world’s greatest ever dancing holes.

Layo and Bushwacka!, Mr. C, Ben Watt and Andy C all say their poignant goodbyes. [via Beatportal]

The End has announced that the club will be closing those legendary metal doors for good in January 2009. The End & AKA will be closing in style, giving the venues the send off they deserve, and the chance for the different DJs and nights to say goodbye. They will be open as normal through autumn, with September, October and November’s parties rocking as usual. The farewell begins with The End’s 13th birthday on December 6th, with long-time favourite Sven Vath headlining. There will follow a series of closing parties featuring The End’s closest DJs and promoters, and then a grand closing weekend on January 23rd and 24th. Here is an interview with The End’s directors, Layo and Zoe Paskin   about the end of The End.
