I struggle to find a decent club these days in Aberdeen as well to be honest, as you say it's just R&B and pop pish in the more popular places like Espionage and Priory. I used to love Estaminet due to it's cosy atmosphere and live DJs every night playing a wide variety of decent dance/house etc. But then it changed it's name to Bruin and got reeeeeeeeally shit. I've still never quite recovered from it, I can never find anywhere worth going now. I've been meaning to check out Snafu again, I haven't been for ages and I remember it being pretty good. There's a good little review of Snafu in this months Mixmag and the owners bemoan the lack of decent dance clubs in the city, as most places cater for the student market, got to say I agree.
You could always go to Kode! Insufferable hard house shit and surrounded by drug dealers.
