WE LOVE... THE SET OF THE SUMMER?
Divider

It's a pretty big call, and we don't generally like to pull it out of the bag until the end of the season, however.... Drum roll please.... We think James Zabiela absolutely nailed the set of the summer last weekend! If nothing else, let's call it a personal best, because he's still got two more gigs coming up for us in which to outdo himself!

Credit where credit's due however, as Dimitri From Paris gave a true master class out on the Terraza, meanwhile there was a veritable ‘battle of the bands' style clash taking place between Simian Mobile Disco and the guys from Hot Chip in between rooms. The jury's still out on the winning act, since it was impossible to be in two places at once. Anyone got any video footage?

2manydjs fans will be making a beeline for the Terraza this Sunday, as the guys pull out all the stops for their final Ibiza performance for the summer of 2010 in the closing set. We recommend getting in there early however, to check out residents Jason Bye and Andy Baxter going back to back before 2020 Vision main man Ralph Lawson plays his last set of the summer also. Then it's over to Ewan Pearson, back for round two after an amazing set in the Discoteca a few weeks ago, before terrace king Steve Lawler storms into the peak time.

Next door in the Discoteca, we'll be opening with Paul Mogg at the controls (after which he'll be heading in to El Salon alongside his good mate Pablo, playing a second set under the name of Psychonaughts) warming things up for DJ Hell  who in turn is sure to set the right tone for this week's exclusive live show from this year's We Love... fave Joris Voorn, followed by the one and only We Love...summer show by Technasia.

We Love Space Sundays 2010

Out on the Sunset Terrace, We Love... resident Jem Haynes kicks off the first of his two-set special with a special b2b set with DJ Smutt. Alfredo and Ian C are up next, doing what they do best, followed by Funkagenda and his much-loved mish mash of exclusive re-edits and hands-in-the-air anthems, a star is born!

In the Red Box, The Burlington Project presents the last of our Freshblood winners, Just Jack, featuring Dan Wild and Tom Rio. They'll be joined by residents Ryan O'Gorman, Andy Carroll, and Jem Haynes rears his head for the second time in the club that night!

The Premier Etage is continuing to prove to be a popular choice among We Lovers, with the eclectic and varied sets by our local residents keeping clubbers dancing even when they've gone upstairs to chill out! This week, Alex Wolfenden, Jon Howell, Andy Carroll (fresh from a stint in the Red Box) and Ian Blevins will be your trusty entertainers for the evening... See you up there!

We Love Blog  
WE LOVE... LIFE BLOG!
The We Love... Life Blog encompasses all aspects of the weird and wonderful world of We Love... and this week, we bring you a sneak peek at our new closing party artwork and a free track to download from one of our trusty resident DJs Jem Haynes...

2010 Closing Fiesta  
The end is nigh! There's still time to book flights from wherever you may be for this party of epic proportion. The line-up speaks for itself, including an Ibiza debut from Aphex Twin in the Discoteca and a return to the venerated Terraza with Basement Jaxx. Big up to David Tazzyman for the wicked new artwork...

Loop Recordings  
In and out of the mayhem that is Ibiza, two of our residents have been preparing for a winter musical onslaught. The story started with Ian C and Jem Haynes jamming in a rave cave, which turned out to be a very nicely equipped studio in the countryside of south east England and with no outside distractions (or windows) to stop them, a series of many long, experimental and purposeful sessions ensued. Eight months later a bold new label, Loop Recordings, is on the verge of being launched.

WE LOVE... DJ MIXES
This week's mixes come courtesy of two of our local resident DJs, to get you in the mood for what you'll be hearing on the dance floor at We Love... this weekend.

Jem Haynes  
Jem Haynes is first and foremost a definitive DJ as well as a fervent producer of music who has the ability to lift the crowd with his energetic beats when they least expect it, and this week, he's everywhere! In our blog, in the Red Box, on the Sunset Terrace and now, on our office stereo. Download his latest mix and see just what all the fuss is about...

Jon Howell  
For this mix, Jon Howell pulls away from his usual deep style, starting out on a techie-trip inspired by Savana Potente moving into US House style with tunes from the likes of Soulphiction, Bleep District, Jazzmopper J and Omar. In the second hour, the tempo starts to trickle down in order drop tracks from Boohgaloo Zoo, Schmoov, Zuco 103, Mr Scruff and a host of others.

This summer a free compilation album has been handed out to visitors in and around our venue to showcase talent and tunes from the formidably enduring label 2020Vision.

This week is Ralph's last set for the summer, from 11.30 - 1.30 so we'll be giving out an extra big bunch while he's playing - be there to score yours, but if you can't be there, from September 13 it will be available to download from Beatport, iTunes and Juno.

We Love Freshblood  
WE LOVE... FRESHBLOOD
This week's Fresh Blood winners are Just Jack - an award-winning club night based in Bristol, playing serious music in a not so serious manner! Throwing carnival style events that will literally eat your head, it was originally established as a late night after party, and rapidly developed into the South West's largest house and techno night. Famed for throwing parties in car parks, skate parks, courtyards, boats, fields, and nightclubs, Just Jack draws a fiercely loyal crowd that ensures every night turns into complete debauchery! And this weekend, they take over the Red Box...

Dan Wild  
Dan's passion, experience and skill behind the turntables has certainly not gone un-noticed at his spiritual home, Just Jack, where he is most in his element and shows his ability to command a dance floor. His low slung, sleazy take on house music provides the perfect sound track for late night disco destruction.

WE LOVE... MINISTRY OF SOUND

Ministry Of Sound - 25th September 2010Preceding the We Love... Space Closing Fiesta by just one day, September 25 sees the arrival of some We Love... favourites from this past summer and years gone by hitting Ministry of Sound London. Headlining the event is Dan Ghenacia, who makes a welcome return to the We Love... fold. Next up we have Will Saul who impressed us so much at his Space debut that we've got him manning the controls in the main room for this event. Another repeat performer, long-serving We Love... resident Mat Playford also returns, plus disco maestros Tirk Records, alongside their London compadres Future Disco in the 103. Then it's straight onto the plane after the gig to head back to Ibiza for the We Love... Space Closing Fiesta - who's in?
