R&B on the water.

R&B is programmed on request rather than sitting on the fixed calendar. Someone proposes a date, and SplitClub sources the vessel, the crew and the sound around it — the cost of the day is then split across the group that claims the places.

The sound

Voice first. Contemporary R&B is built around vocal performance over slow, spacious production, and it is the most conversational music the club programs — loud enough to set a mood, never loud enough to end a conversation.

R&B in Miami

R&B runs through Miami's lounge and rooftop circuit rather than its club circuit, and it is the default sound of the city's early evening. It shares an audience and often a lineup with the hip hop rooms.

How the club programs it

The club's sunset cruise format. Later departure, no swim stop on most dates, and the route pointed at the skyline as it lights up rather than out to open water.

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. People take 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

Is the R&B day a party or a cruise?

A cruise. It is programmed quieter and later than the club's day-party formats, and it is the one most often chosen by groups celebrating something.

Is there a swim stop?

Usually not. R&B days depart late enough that the route is built around the skyline and the sunset rather than around anchoring.

Can we bring our own playlist?

On a day you host, yes. The club handles the vessel, crew and funding; the host shapes the room.
