Clandestin pres. Full On Ibiza at Space IbizaClandestin pres. Full On Ibiza at Space IbizaClandestin pres. Full On Ibiza at Space Ibiza

Paul Oakenfold visited Clandestin pres. Full On Ibiza at the penultimate party of the season. House South Brothers, at the start of the night, and DJ L, after Oakenfold’s performance, completed the lineup at the legendary Terraza of the club in Playa d’en Bossa. Meanwhile the Sunset Terrace was led by the always-resolute resident, Ramon Castells.

But undoubtedly all eyes were fixed on the London Trance legend Paul Oakenfold. His set was the highlight of the night with two and half hours at his entire disposal for attendees to enjoy his 30-plus years of experience. Since his inception to raves during the 90s at the British capital until today, his sonic journey has spanned countless of styles and melodies that have enshrined him in the international music elite.

Tribal rhythms were present at the beginning of his set, breaking tangentially with the Tech House that the House South Brothers had proposed earlier. Little by little, and after an hour into his set, we begin to perceive a change in the melodies to sounds closer to Future House. All this was reflected when the London DJ dropped his new remix "Otherside" by the legendary group Red Hot Chili Peppers. The audience went wild humming the song made famous by Californian group, while the powerful audiovisual equipment at Space Ibiza enveloped the dancefloor in a mystical atmosphere. It is now easy to understand the joy DJ L exhibited when she received the baton from Oakenfold, as the audience was dedicated to the cause.

The penultimate party of Mondays at Space Ibiza was the perfect foretaste of what will be coming our way next September 28th. The Clandestin pres. Full On Ibiza closing promises thrills with the return of Dutch boss Ferry Corsten to the DJ booth of the club. Bassjackers, Aly & Fila, Lucky Charmes and Ramon Castells complete the lineup. Do not miss it and buy your tickets for Clandestin pres. Full On Ibiza, because it will be hard to get back to those monotonous winter Mondays, imagine having the doubt of not going to Ferry’s last party at Space Ibiza

Carl Cox closes his best season ever

12

It’s hard to believe another Ibiza season is coming to an end, but after 11 amazing weeks at Space, including some of the busiest and biggest nights in Carl’s 14 year history, his 2015 residency goes out with a bang this Tuesday.

Music Is Revolution – The Next Phase, closes 22nd September, ending the season in style with Carl at the helm, joined by Desolat’s revered head honcho Loco Dice and tINI and on the terrace America’s house gangster DJ Sneak, Monika Kruse and the illustrious Just Be.

Carl Cox:

This has to be the most unreal thing - I have held down the residency at Space for 14 years and with everything that has been going on in Ibiza this year we have had our best year ever.

The response from the people has just been phenomenal. There are so many places you could go in Ibiza but so many people choose to come to our night based on what we give. I have loved every minute I have played - when I am behind those decks looking at that room it’s not only electric but it’s everything I have ever wanted as a DJ.”

Lynn Cosgrave, Safehouse:

We have had an amazing season this year, the best in 14 years which stands testimony to Carl, the other great talent that was booked and has been booked.  I also think it shows that if you stick to your moral values you will always succeed. Well done Safehouse Ibiza Team too!”

Since the opening party on July 7th, thousands of music-savvy clubbers from all over the world have packed out Space week after week, to witness an unparalleled array of DJ talent, confirming Carl’s residency is still one of the most popular nights on the island. Throughout the 14 year history Carl and Safehouse have cemented themselves as one of the industry’s top talent spotters and boldest programmers in Ibiza.

You can buy now your tickets for Music Is Revolution with Carl Cox at Space Ibiza.

With only one more show to go for the season, Cadenza Vagabundos returned to Space Ibiza yesterday for a roaring night, with Luciano welcoming Mirko Loko and Chica Paula in the Vagabundos Room and with Alter Ego hosting the Sunset Room. Cadenza rising star gAS took over the Premiere Etage all night long.

Luciano’s set was truly emotional as he dedicated his 3 hours of music to his beloved Chile, which got struck by a mammoth earthquake on Wednesday Sep. 17th in the Coquimbo region, causing several casualties and more than 1 million people fleeing from their homes. He also posted a video on his Facebook page to send his positive thoughts to the human beings caught in this tragedy.

Meanwhile, Mirko Loko’s Live Set showcased his unique style of layers, polyrhythms, shifting moods of dark and light, highclass and low-slung melodies, a look back upon his decade long list of releases on labels like Border Community, Wagon Repair, Planet E, Desolat and Visionquest.

Chica Paula’s bold fusion between fairytale-like Ambient, House, Techno and Electropop proved to be a winning formula last night, and the people in the Terrace truly enjoyed her warm up set as something different and quite unexpected.

Italian rising star gAS entertained the crowds with his Deep melodies and catchy grooves all night long on the Premiere Etage. His Split EP on Cadenza was released at the beginning of August to enthusiastic reviews, and the guy lived up to that with a selection taking in the best of the last 20 years in House Music.

The Sunset Room was hosted by Alter Ego last night: Hope Recordings A&R man and former Tour DJ for Massive Attack Nick Warren was on the decks, emanating a perfect club mix of driving percussions and soaring musicality, soaking everyone in melody, drenching them in sound.

Israeli Guy J has established himself as a very sophisticated and emotive producer in Electronic Music, whether it be his sensual, hypnotic take on House Music, his deeply textured Techno or his wondrous Ambient material, his work always touches with a magic and emotion that few rival.

Recognized as a leading light in the ever-growing Tel Aviv underground music scene, Guy Mantzur is also the highly respected resident DJ at the city’s most popular club - The Cat & The Dog – where his unique style and unrivaled technique allow him to regularly play alongside a very diverse selection of international stars. As a result, Guy’s skills behind the decks have recently been recognized at the prestigious XL Awards, where he received the accolade of “Israel’s Best Underground DJ 2013”.

DJing from the age of 11, James Gill has played in some of the US East Coast’s biggest clubs alongside major international talent. A trained audio engineer and studio producer, his productions are supported by numerous underground artists. His 2015 release “Solarium” on Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Recordings saw a turning point for his original work, and his unmistakable flow during his sets has impressed crowds from the USA to Europe. Luciano, Valentino Kanzyani, Ryan Crosson, Michel Cleis and more guests will say goodbye to this season on Sunday 27th September. Join them and buy your tickets for Vagabundos at Space Ibiza

glitterbox at space ibiza 01glitterbox at space ibiza 04For their penultimate party of the season, Glitterbox brought another diverse and quality-heavy line up to Space Ibiza, as Soul Clap, Breakbot, Joey Negro, Juan MacLean and DJ Antz provided a night high on thrills, with House and Disco anthems aplenty.

Warming things up on the Terrace, Breakbot romped through a selection of his exceptional edits and remixes, with tracks of particular note including his reworkings of Busy P’s ‘This Song’ and Matthew Dear’s 2010 ‘You Put a Smell On Me’ – both of which went down incredibly well with the steadily building Glitterbox faithful.

By now, Savage’s latest dance crew Nutbags had begun to infiltrate the dancefloor, their relentless energy and outrageous costumes proving an infectious foil to the positive musical vibes emanating from behind the decks. Nutbags made their Ibiza debut last week, and have already made a significant impression on the White Isle. By this point, Juan MacLean – another Glitterbox favourite – had taken over from Breakbot, initially lowering the tempo with a few Underground House cuts before raising the roof with Purple Disco Machine’s remix of his own ‘A Simple Design’: the party had most definitely started, and by the time Joey Negro took to the decks, the Terrace dancefloor was jumping.

Joey Negro worked his way skilfully thorough a selection of Disco and soulful House, demonstrating his rich musical heritage with his selections. Ron Basejam ‘When I Hear That Music’, Jimmy The Twin ‘Midnight Shuffle’ and Eli Escobar ‘Seein You’ were dropping in quick succession, before he laid waste to the dancefloor with the anthemic Jim Burgess mix of Change ‘A Lover’s Holiday’.

By the time this week’s headliners Soul Clap stepped up to make their Glitterbox debut, the atmosphere inside space was electric. The duo romped through a bumpin selection of Funk-influenced House, and brought a fitting finale to another amazing Glitterbox night. Now only the closing remains… Buy your tickets and enjoy the last party of the season with Dimitri From Paris, Todd Terry and many more artists on Friday 25th September.

FUSE IBIZA 2015 CLOSING PARTY AT SPACE IBIZA

FUSE at Space IbizaFUSE at Space Ibiza

It’s been yet another incredible summer for the FUSE team in Ibiza.

Focusing on quality over quantity, the 2015 season has seen some of the crew’s best gigs yet. From the two amazing Space Ibiza takeovers that marked the start of the summer, having the best feedback we could ever ask for, to the unforgettable day party at the beautiful Benimussa Zoo featuring a surprise performance by good friend Guti and the latest event with tINI and the gang beach party takeover.

Each party created unforgettable memories, and holds a special place in our hearts. But like all great things, even this summer has to come to an end.

Capping off such a successful and fantastic season, FUSE returns to Space Ibiza on Tuesday 29th September for very special final 'Terrace Takeover' CLOSING PARTY.

Keeping it all in the family for the finale, the lineup will feature an all FUSE residents lineup with the likes of Enzo Siragusa, Seb Zito, Rich NxT, Rossko, Archie Hamilton and Dan Farserelli!

Anyone who knows FUSE knows it’s all about their residents, who’s relentlessly uncompromising approach to techno and house and superb skills as selectors and producers has earned the crew a worldwide reputation as one of the tightest knit families in dance music.

As always, FUSE will continue to be heavily focused on the sound. Audiophiles by nature, the team behind FUSE are dedicated to ensuring that the set up of any club they play is tweaked to allow for the best representation of that distinctive FUSE sound, and the the finely tuned, world renowned Funktion One sound system on the Space Terrace will help create the perfect atmosphere for FUSE to thrive.

Of course, the superb sound and top notch music will once again be accompanied by custom made visuals and lighting, ensuring a total FUSE experience, inside and out. This is how we do it.

Space Ibiza WKND September #3 – Dancers Special

We love to dance even though we do it in an uncoordinated way. The arms on one side, the legs on the other and let’s not talk about the head… You know it, you’re never going to move like the dancers of Space Ibiza. This weekend we honor their professionalism and passion for dance. And without them Glitterbox, elrow-Kehakuma and Vagabundos would not be the same:

ADRIANA AROZAMENA GLITTERBOX

1. What does Glitterbox mean for you? It is a party that envelops you in an authentic atmosphere of happiness. The House-Disco style that is heard every night makes people enjoy the music, dancing and smiling nonstop. It is very beautiful and truly magical. Glitterbox gave me unforgettable moments, such as the night when Fatboy Slim came for a visit when I felt such brutal energy. It was a dream come true.

2. What is your season like in Ibiza? Each year is different, and a new adventure. It is my fourth season in Ibiza and in relation to this work, it has been the best. I have danced for many parties and events. At Space Ibiza I have had the pleasure to work with ENTER. by Richie Hawtin, Music Is Revolution by Carl Cox and Glitterbox.  It has been an unforgettable experience, I feel very fortunate to live the summer on an island like Ibiza working with great professionals of music and dance.

3. What are you doing for the rest of the year? When the season is over I’ll return to Castro Urdiales (Cantabria) to visit my family, relax and unwind. I’ll return to Morocco after where I lived last winter working for the CLA film studios (Ouarzazate) and other events. Later we’ll see… wherever dance takes me and feet stop me.

Glitterbox presents this Friday, September 18th the penultimate party of the season with the American duo Soul Clap and the House sound by Joey Negro as protagonists.

SHEILA GÓMEZ – ELROW / KEHAKUMA

1. What does elrow-Kehakuma mean for? It is the party that I enjoy dancing the most in all of Ibiza. I enjoy the music, lightshows and the stage where we dance. They also allow us to express ourselves through dance and Techno music. Being from Barcelona, I have lived the original elrow and have a special affection for it.

2. What is your season like in Ibiza? Ibiza is the door to the world. Here you can’t plan anything, you have to be guided by the day to day. Professionally I have a lot of work, I dance at the best parties and I have the luck to have colleagues that have become my family.

3. What are you doing for the rest of the year? During winter I live in Paris where I continue studying dance, while I work as a dancer and model.

elrow-Kehakuma has everything prepared for their more than 10-hour Closing Festival, but before on Saturday, September 19th a KOMPAKT TOTAL  with Kölsch (DJ set) and Michael Mayer b2b Miss Kittin on the Terraza. On the other hand, the Main Room will be controlled by Mathias Kaden, Jay Lumen and the residents of elrow

LUCIA NUÑEZ – VAGABUNDOS

1. What does Vagabundos mean for you? It is a party by Luciano at Space Ibiza and is born from the globetrotter concept by the Cadenza label. It has a free spirit and an uninhibited attitude that is reflected in both the animation and the DJ sets. Each week  Luciano invites several of his companions to enjoy his fine musical taste. The only rule is there are no rules when it comes to creating music. At just a date shy of its Closing, it’s a pleasure to dance for Vagabundos every Sunday.

2. What is your season like in Ibiza? I come to this magical island since 2009. Each year I am delighted and grateful to work and enjoy this experience next to the biggest DJs, good music and best friends.

3. What are you doing for the rest of the year? I have dedicated the last 7 years to travel and learning so I can evolve and renew myself. I love meeting new cultures and people working in the development of electronic music. My next destination will be Berlin, I want to improve my German and see first-hand the underground scene of the German capital.

Sundays at Space Ibiza with Luciano says goodbye to the week on Sunday, September 20th with Luciano himself, Mirko Loko (Live), Chica Paula, Nick Warren and many other artists. 

 

Buy your tickets and follow the rhythm of Space Ibiza WKND with the most charming dancers of the island. 

 

¿Qué es Glitterbox para ti?

Glitterbox es una fiesta que te envuelve en un ambiente auténtico de felicidad. El estilo House-Disco que suena cada noche hace que la gente disfrute de la música sin parar de bailar y sonreír. Es muy bonito y realmente mágico. Glitterbox me ha regalado momentos inolvidables, como por ejemplo la noche que nos visitó Fatboy Slim y en la que sentí una energía brutal. Fue un sueño hecho realidad.

¿Cómo es tu temporada en Ibiza?

Cada año es diferente, una aventura nueva. Es mi cuarta temporada en Ibiza y en relación al trabajo este ha sido la mejor. He bailado para muchas fiestas y eventos. En Space Ibiza he tenido el placer de trabajar para ENTER. de Richie Hawtin, Music Is Revolution de Carl Cox y Glitterbox.  Ha sido una experiencia inolvidable, me siento muy afortunada de poder vivir el verano en una isla como Ibiza colaborando con grandes profesionales de la música y de la danza.

¿Qué haces el resto del año?

Cuando termine la temporada volveré a Castro Urdiales (Cantabria) para visitar a mi familia, relajarme y descansar. Después regresaré a Marruecos donde viví el pasado invierno trabajando para los estudios de cine CLA (Ouarzazate) y otros eventos. Más tarde ya se verá… ¡donde la danza me lleve y mis pies frenen!

Glitterbox presenta este viernes 18 de septiembre su penúltima fiesta de la temporada con el dúo americano Soul Clap y el sonido House de Joey Negro como grandes protagonistas. 

Carl Cox 15 09 2015 by Manel MG 51Carl Cox 15 09 2015 by Manel MG 62Carl Cox 15 09 2015 by Manel MG 47

The countdown is well and truly on with us now having completed 11 out of 12 parties! Yet again all roads were pointing towards Space Ibiza on Tuesday as the line up was another A-list affair.

As always the Ibiza Sonica crew were hosting the Sunset Terrace from early doors, Karlos Sense started off the proceedings followed by Berlin based duo by the name of Pan-Pot. This pair really kicked off the night in style, quality house from the offset, which lead easily into Mo’funk having the honour of closing the Terrace.

Over in the Main Room Jon Rundell was the man in charge of warm up duties.  Jon has been friends of the Carl Cox family for some time and is a regular at Space and also the Carl Cox parties across the globe. As always Jon produced another great set, starting off with some really nice tech house and finally winding into his trademark techno sound.

Up next in the Main Room and onto their second set of the night was Pan-Pot. Tassilo and Thomas worked this trusty main room crowd from the very first beat, relentless to the end this was another fantastic set from another set of Carl Cox regulars. The boys really set the tone ready for the main attraction, Carl Cox.

As always when the clock strikes 3am the big man takes his place to take Main Room crowd on another journey. Some faces in the crowd are first time Carl Cox goers, some are regulars coming week in week out and some are here just for that week holiday. Whichever one, the experience is always the same.

Over on the covered Terrace another firm favourite to the Carl Cox camp was Yousef and his Circus brand. David Glass was back again and in charge of getting the room ready for Yousef and Eats Everything who will play b2b until the end. David warmed the Terrace up with ease on Tuesday, quality House until the end to a now packed Terrace dance floor. As we got to 2am Yousef and Eats Everything were now in charge of destroying the Terrace and that’s exactly what they did. Pounding House and Tech House rattled the sound system for over 3 hours and for us, this was one of the highlights of the season.

Up on the Premier Etage floor, Burn Residency were in control all night long with Henri Matisse and he was joined by competition winner Samantha. Down over in the trusty El Salon room the Digital Groove boys with Birds In The Basement, Derek Mcnee, Woody and Mikey Duncan took the night into very early hours.

Another fantastic night here at Space Ibiza and Carl Cox and with only one more Tuesday until the final curtain you would crazy to miss it… Loco Dice, tINI, Dj Sneak, Monika Kruse and Just Be will all be in the house next 22nd September. Buy your tickets for the last Music Is Revolution party of the season. #OhYesOhYes
