Music · House and its subgenres

House on the water.

The most-requested format the club runs. Sunset departure, a swim stop while the sun is still high, and the set climbing as the light goes. A single DJ, no changeovers, one continuous six-hour arc built for the same twelve people rather than for a crowd that turns over.

118–126 BPM · Chicago, early 1980s

SplitClub has programmed 9 house days across Ibiza, Mallorca, Miami, Monaco and Sydney. The club arranges the vessel and the crew and programs the music; a vetted group claims the places and the cost of the day is split across the deck.

The sound

Four-on-the-floor kick, a swung hi-hat, and a bassline that carries the whole record. House was built for long nights on a big system, which is why it survives daylight better than almost anything else: it does not depend on a drop, so it can run for six hours without exhausting the room.

House in Miami

Miami has been a house city since the Winter Music Conference started drawing the industry here in the mid-1980s, and the week that grew out of it — Miami Music Week, every March — still turns the entire city into a venue. Club Space keeps the tradition of the sunrise set alive on its outdoor terrace downtown, and the pool parties that fill South Beach hotels during that week are the closest thing dance music has to a trade show.

How the club programs it

The most-requested format the club runs. Sunset departure, a swim stop while the sun is still high, and the set climbing as the light goes. A single DJ, no changeovers, one continuous six-hour arc built for the same twelve people rather than for a crowd that turns over.

Every SplitClub day works the same way underneath the music. The club arranges one vessel for one date, with its captain and crew, and programs the route, the hours and the sound. Members claim single places rather than hiring a boat. Contributions are held through our state-of-the-art payment processing system until the day is fully funded — if it does not fill, it does not sail and nobody is charged.

Frequently asked questions

Can you have a house DJ on a yacht in Miami?

Yes. SplitClub programs house days on Biscayne Bay with a DJ aboard and a system sized for open air rather than a room. The club supplies the setup as part of the day, so nobody is carrying a speaker down a dock.

How long does a house set run on the water?

The club's standard sunset format is six hours dock to dock, usually one DJ across the whole day. Four-hour and eight-hour versions run depending on the vessel and the date.

What does a house day cost per person?

It depends on the vessel, the date and the number of places. The vessel is priced once and split across the deck rather than charged per head, and each day's activity contribution is shown in the app before you confirm.

SplitClub is application-only in every city. The guest list is the product, so vetting is the gate rather than price. Apply for membership →
