Touted as the template for millennium clubbing, The Matrix has been the recip-ient of generous funding and phenomenal club nights. The 1,600-capacity club used to be the Olympia Ballroom, hosting concerts from, among others, The Rolling Stones. The updated version is spread across three rooms offering the latest sound and visual technology (including ISDN links, interactive music and synchronised visuals) plus a DJ line up to rival any UK venue. Promotions such as Slinky, Ms Moneypenny's, Ministry of Sound and Freedom will visit Reading, while DJs Judge Jules, Brandon Block, Lisa Pin Up, Norman Jay, Graham Gold and The Dreem Team will all have performed there by the end of the month. Tonight, Matt Carter, Rocky & Diesel play progressive house in the main room while the excellent Jay is joined by Dreem Team and Tom Gianelli in the second room.
75 London St, Reading (0118-959 0687) tonight, 10pm-4am, pounds 8-pounds 10
