Two new clubs are about to open inside of the also-new SLS hotel. Foxtail (left) is a black-and-gold lounge designed by Philippe Starck. LiFE is a colossal, strobe-lit, EDM-fueled arena for doing things of the night. The former opens tomorrow and the latter on Friday. (See the slideshow here.) Here’s that tale-of-the-tape-style breakdown you were asking about… The Space Foxtail: Real urban Parisian vibe going on here—silver-and-gold calligraphy from a French graffiti artist. Ornamental dome fixtures. A 51,000-square-foot pool/club area. Philippe Starck saw to all of those things. He does this. LiFE: Massive. As in 30,000 square feet, 60-foot ceilings and a 460,000-pixel LED wall overlooking it all. Also, an open-air rooftop pool. The Scene Foxtail: People whispering in each other’s ears on tufted-leather banquettes under elaborate chandeliers. European people making music in front of MacBook Pros. LiFE: Paper confetti falling all around you. Strobe lights. European people making music in front of MacBook Pros. The Wild Cards Foxtail: Two giant brass birdcages. For dancers. Or you, if you’re into it. LiFE: Burlesque aerialists dangling from cables. Ziplines. Catwalks in front of an enormous visual display. The Takeaway Foxtail: Everything’s better when it’s 4am/shoes are flying/you’re here. LiFE: Three-piece cannonball?
