Jupiter Disco is a renowned nightclub and bar located in Brooklyn, New York City, United States, that has become a distinct fixture in the city’s thriving electronic music scene since its opening in 2016. The venue was founded by Brian Rauso and Matthew Thornley, both enthusiasts of analog sound systems and vintage synthesizers, and was envisioned as a place where music, technology, and a hint of science fiction aesthetics could intersect. With its retro-futuristic décor—evoking classic sci-fi films with dim lighting, neon accents, and an intimate dance floor—Jupiter Disco quickly developed a strong reputation for its audiophile-grade sound system and its dedication to underground dance music.

Unlike some of the city’s larger clubs, Jupiter Disco is known for its unpretentious vibe, drawing a loyal crowd of Brooklyn locals, discerning music fans, and performers seeking a dedicated, intimate atmosphere. Over time, the venue’s reputation has grown thanks to its curatorial approach to bookings, focusing largely on leftfield electronic genres, house, techno, and experimental sounds, often showcasing artists who champion vinyl and modular synthesizers. While the club's physical structure has remained in its original Bushwick location since opening, the venue has undergone several interior updates to enhance the sound experience and optimize the layout for both DJs and dancers.

Jupiter Disco also played an important role in supporting local artists during the COVID-19 pandemic, becoming a gathering spot for a resilient and creative community as nightlife returned to New York. Culturally, the venue stands out for fostering inclusivity and advocating for safe, respectful dance floors, which has contributed to its lasting significance on the Brooklyn nightlife landscape. Notable artists who have performed at Jupiter Disco include internationally recognized names such as Helena Hauff, Umfang, Fred P, and Convextion, as well as respected local talents like Umfang, Volvox, Analog Soul, Aurora Halal, and Antenes.

The venue has also featured guest appearances from innovative selectors like DJ Python, Justin Cudmore, Jenifa Mayanja, and Abby Echiverri, cementing its reputation as a home for boundary-pushing club music both from New York and beyond.
