BLISS

"Are we in Miami ? Are we in New York ? Or is this Vegas?" That's the refrain often overheard at Bliss when savvy patrons walk through the doors for the first time. Featured prominently on PAGE SIX and in other leading magazines, BLISS is the Northeast's sleekest and most futuristic venue, one which happens to be located in Clifton , New Jersey (only 13 miles outside Manhattan ). With the nation's first installation of comprehensive, state-of-the-art Aspect loudspeakers from Turbosound, BLISS boasts the sharpest, cleanest, and indisputable most powerful club sound system any 1,000-person capacity venue on the East Coast. The DJ booth features an Allen & Heath Xone: 92 mixer, three Pioneer CDJ-1000 MK3s, two Technics SL series turntables, and a custom rig for the lighting jock all housed in a sublime, tailor-made console on the stage. The lighting design rivals the nightclubs seen inside Las Vegas casinos, with an awe-inspiring array of Color Kinetics intelligent/digital LEDs complimented by traditional moving-heads and strobes. No detail was overlooked, and the resulting atmosphere and consistently packed crowds have made BLISS the NJ destination for "America 's Best DJ" Jonathan Peters for all of 2007, among countless other local and international talent. Resident DJ Chris Asta keeps the party going as celebrities like Benji Madden of Good Charlotte, Junior Sanchez, and other bold-face names come to enjoy themselves.
