I've booked a surprise weekend away for my girl at the end of Nov / start of December and although I've been to the city before, apart from Cabaret Voltaire, where I've been previous, I'm not too clued up on the Edinburgh night life / party scene.

Could anyone suggest some decent non commercial bars / clubs that have a good music policy - or even better, some local nights that are worth checking out... Anything on a House / Deep / Disco / Soul tip would be ace.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers in advance
