...rooms, trying to groove to the beat and still carry on their conversations. At midnight the dance floor was still empty, and the party organizers wondered whether they had hired the wrong DJ. But by two in the morning, the lobby began to clear and the multilingual din subsided. In true European fashion, it was only after a lot of talk that the crowd was ready to come together.

...artsy Fringe Club in the trendy Central district, Fai has barely sat down with his bottle of Tsingtao, when a bright-eyed girl dances up to him out of the jazz-band din.
