Deadwax

Word on the Enmore strip is there’s a serious listening room doing everything right. Deadwax is an audiophile’s playground—acoustically treated, stacked with killer wax, and pumping out retro jazz and deep cuts through a flawless sound system. Tuesday through Thursday, you call the shots from their record crates; come the weekend, DJs take the decks to get the room buzzing. Cocktail purists are sending their mates straight here for the Wax Blossom—a razor-sharp collision of gin and sake—paired perfectly with a round of salty otsumami (Japanese bar snacks). The crew behind the pine? Hyper-knowledgeable, incredibly warm, and always ready to talk tasting notes or tracklists. An absolute essential for a proper Inner West night out.
