WE LOVE... THE FIFTH ELEMENT
Divider

It was a storming week at We Love... last week and we're certainly not making small talk about the weather here. Taking no prisoners as usual was Ivan Smagghe - who also wants a new rule for clubs in Ibiza to allow people with no teeth to enter for free, or at the very least stop mocking the poor (we wonder what he's getting at?). Jas and James from Simian Mobile Disco absolutely destroyed the disco, followed by a fantastic finish by Deepgroove who closed with their own amazing re-edit of Gorillaz' Dare.

Other highlights included seeing 2manydjs actually crack a smile - it was Steph's 40th after all - while seriously churning through their tunes at high speed, Heidi rocking it (or more appropriately, jacking it) and the Black Rabbits causing mayhem in El Salon with American import Shaun Reeves. And if you weren't there to catch part of the seven-hour b2b marathon on the roof from Ian Blevins and Jamie Fatneck, we suggest you head up there this week for the sequel!

For the fifth instalment of our weekly festival, the dynamic duo of Andy Baxter and Jason Bye kick off all the action on the Sunset Terrace - it's their debut b2b set, so we're sure they'll be pulling all sorts out of the bag. Alfredo and Ian C continue to rule the roost, while Funkagenda brings it home.

Out on the Terraza, witness the return of the mighty Steve Lawler, plus a DFA takeover of sorts, with the Hot Chip DJs Felix and Al plus The Juan Maclean's second coming. We've also brought Jem Haynes out of the Red Box for the occasion, and invited the prodigal Mat Playford to bring back his boisterous bounce!

We Love Space Sundays 2010 - Opening Party - July 11

Disco Bloodbath are back in El Salon - and it's their last time this summer, so don't miss disco-fuelled sets by residents Damon Martin and Dan Beaumont. Speaking of disco, the roof is where it's been at lately - Premier Etage will be at the hands of Jamie Fatneck and Ian Blevins, following up from last week's stellar effort, with the additional skills of Mr Doris and Ben Korbel. Next door in the Red Box, The Burlington Project presents the second instalment of The Burlington Projects Freshblood winners, Cerca Trova (see below for more details of their super-cool soiree!).

Chew the Fat! return to take over the inside of our Discoteca once again this weekend, presenting the only We Love... performance of Steve Aoki this summer. Fat!'s favourite resident Foamo hits the peaktime set and Joe Ransom goes head to head (well, back to back anyway!) with Tayo. Thankfully, the lovely Lottie is also on hand to add a bit of a pizazz to the otherwise deep, dark, cavernous room!

WE LOVE... FRESHBLOOD WINNERS

Next up, in our illustrious winning line-up from the G-Shock Burlington Project Fresh Blood competition are East London Basement ravers Cerca Trova. This crew has been causing a stir in London with their stripped down, no-nonsense party attitude of late - an underground rave in the true sense of the word. Their intention is to fuse quality underground house and techno artists, bringing together like-minded people who share the same passion in life and music. Cerca Trova means 'seek and you shall find' and now we've found them!

 

RossKo  

Rossko's sound is raw and earthy, leaning towards a deep and dubby technohouse vibe with a positive edge. Throughout his DJ career his sound has always been evolving and he takes pride in playing cutting-edge music in the underground scene.


 

Daniel  

Daniel's passion for mixing has been nearly 20 years in the making, having enjoyed success in all arenas of house music, from garage to funky house to techno, holding down several residencies in each genre. He has found a perfect balance between depth and energy in his music both as a DJ and a Producer, and channels this same energy into his party, Cerca Trova.

WE LOVE... DJ MIXES
Whether you're after some music to get you in the mood for Sunday's party, or if you can't join us and want to recreate the party in your own living room, download our latest DJ mixes and you can have the We Love... sound on high rotation, wherever you may be!

Mat Playford  

This mix by Mat Playford was actually recorded live for Ibiza Sonica on the Space Terraza last month when he played for us – since then, he’s taken the mix and given it just a little studio finesse in all the right places. Can anyone spot the difference or was he just being finicky? Come check him out again this weekend and see for yourself!


 

Joe Ransom  

From an early age, Joe Ransom knew his calling in life was to make people dance, relentlessly putting needle to the wax and experimenting with quick mixes and fast cutting on his mission! Be there to see the KISS FM DJ go b2b with Tayo in the Discoteca for Chew the Fat! this Sunday.

WE LOVE... MINISTRY OF SOUND

Ministry Of Sound - 14 August 2010We're still in recovery from last week's storming gig at Ministry of Sound in London, where DJ Hell was absolutely amazing and 2020Soundsytem blew us away.

So now it's onto planning the next one... August 14 is the date for your diaries, and we'll be announcing our very special headliners next Monday - they'll be joined by the world's most well-read DJ Ewan Pearson, Will Saul and in exciting news, we'll be letting our long-standing resident Jason Bye leave the island for the night!

We'll finish off the Ministry season on September 25, the day before our Ibiza closing party, so you could join us and make it a 2-day London-to-Ibiza extravaganza.
