Space Opening Fiesta 2009: real party in real time! May 31, 2009

Radio Ibiza Sonica is broadcasting LIVE from Space Opening Fiesta at this very moment. Right now Deadmau5 is playing, Steve Lawler’s the next one to hit the main stage and Carl Cox wraps up the transmission. Don’t miss it! Check some real time photos, legally stolen from the radio’s blog:


LA TECNOLOGIA ES UNA PASADA, EH?!

 

XXXperience that!!! May 30, 2009

Outdoor rave parties are, after over a decade out there,  still gaining more and more fans. The very well organized and traditional Xxxperience celebrated its 13th anniversary in Curitiba last weekend. Around 15.000 people danced all day (because nightime rave parties have been forbbiden over here) in a wonderful kinderland mood. A party full of colours, mixing all kinds of people and not dedicated exclusively to psy trance, as it used to traditionally be. The VIP area had Booka Shade (wanna see a VIDEO?) and Audiojack among others, while the main stage saw names as Trentemoller ( to watch him playing from stage, click HERE ) and Robert Babicz. Definitely worth going to!

And here are our nicest pictures, exclusively for you:

The nu groove May 30, 2009

“A new musical scene emerge... Called indifferently Neo-Disco, Cosmic Disco, or Space Disco, a new style is raising from clubs in New York, London, Paris, LA or Tokyo. Far from the somehow dusty sound of the 70′s, the NuDisco scene reinvest the disco imagery, somewhere between abstract, electronic, and dance music more “djable” as some of the producers say. Giorgio Moroder is not so far.” 

Nu Disco is paving its way to becoming a huge submovement into the electronic scene itself. It’s a breath of freshness into a market overloaded with repetition and lack of creativity. Having realise that, the French video collective  FatCat Films  have put together interviews, testimonials and other cool bits of important players such as Aeroplane, Cosmo Vitelli, Runaway, Hercules & Love Affair, Hot Chip etc.. in this short documentary. The blossoming of a brand new (well, not ‘that’ new…) happening fully documented.

Ibiza 2009: are you ready to get down? May 26, 2009

The white  isle sees important and significant changes on this year’s clubbing calendar, which officially kicks off on Sunday, 31st May, with the massively busy Space Opening Fiesta. Being Ibiza’s specialists and connaisseurs ( :-D ), it’s our duty and mission to bring to you what’s new and hot for this season on the most magic of the islands.

Check it out:

- Matinée goes from Space to Amnesia and isn’t a morning party anymore. “Space is no longer what it was. Times change and the reality is that Amnesia is the best club in the world”, claims promoter Jordi Pizzarro. Indeed, Amnesia won this year’s prize of best global club at Miami’s Winter Music Conference 24th Annual International Dance Music Awards.

- Hed Kandi relocates to Space on Saturdays nights, from 13th June. They needed more room for a whole new concept (great! fantastic! super!). “The Nu Disco addition to the night has been received with extraordinary level of excitement and enthusiasm”, says Jenni Cochrane, HK’s tour manager. They’ll have a room exclusively dedicated to this new style djs as  Crazy P, Todd Terje and Aeroplane to name but a few.  A good promise, as Nu Disco parties have been a big craze in dance music lately.

Baby Marcelo and DJ Oliver, both former La Troya (now every Wednesday in Amnesia) residents, kick off their own thing in the world’s biggest club, Privilege, on Saturdays with The Face of Ibiza.

- The most surpring change, however, is Roger Sanchez leaving his Mondays’  residency at Pacha (tough to play against Tiesto at Privilege and Sven Vath, this year celebrating Cocoon’s 10th anniversary at Amnesia, both on the same night) and teams up with trance king Armin Van Buuren. The S-Man takes over the amazing terrazza while the Dutch ginger rocks the wicked main room. 

- Pete Tong opens the gates, for the second year, of his Wonderland at Eden on Fridays and is full speed with the second edition of International Music Summit, starting tomorrow on the island; Car l Cox doesn’t move an inch from Space on Tuesdays, already a classic night out; Subliminal Sessions (featuring Mr. Morillo) and Defected in the House, that have teamed up with David Morales’ Def Mix giving birth to Def Mix In the House, keep rocking Pacha, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, respectively. Oh, and David Guetta’s F*** I’m Famous is now a weekly party, every Thursday, also at Pacha.

We haven’t heard a word about DC10 yet… But, as we know, they play the Phoenix and can reopen Circo Loco, the most famous after hours on the planet, at any moment.

If you’re a lucky enough to be in Ibiza TODAY, don’t miss Funkytecca party at Grial with our mate Rod Maya in the mix. Tomorrow, Jon Sa Trinxa shows why he’s da master playing an exclusive set at – where else? –  Sa Trinxa chiringuito, at the magic end of Ses Salines beach.

Stay tuned to SinK. Our birdies on the island won’t let you miss a thing!
