It's good news for those unable to hear. Britain will soon organise its first disco night for the deaf, a media report said Tuesday.
The "multi-sensory" disco night would use a variety of features -- vibrating floors, sign language rappers and aroma jockeys -- to help the deaf enjoy the music being played, the Daily Mail reported.
The Sencity London 2011 will be held Oct 8.
The vibrating dance floor responds to the music's bass frequency, and there are "aroma jockeys" who spread scent in an attempt to interpret the music through smell.

There will be sign dancers who visually interpret the music.
There will also be free masseurs, hair stylists, make-up artists and even circus performers.
"It is all about using all your senses -- hearing, feel, sight, smell and taste," said Nienke van der Peet, an organiser.
The night is expected to attract around 1,500 people. It is supported by the British Council's Youth in Action Programme.
Sencity programmes have been held since
