The opening party kicks off at 8pm on Tuesday 5th July and runs throughout the summer, closing on 20th September.This summer Carl Cox and Safehouse Management will be returning to Space Ibiza for a groundbreaking 10th consecutive year, and we can now reveal the final details of this year’s stellar line-up.
“As it’s our 10th birthday we wanted to look back over the years and bring back some of our favourites,” says Carl. “There are a few familiar faces, along with lots of new ones – so I’m really pleased, especially with DJs like Michel de Hey and DJ Vibe onboard as they were with us in the early years. It’s going to feel pretty special. And they’ll be a few classic sets played I’m sure.”
They’ll be pulling out all the stops for this landmark anniversary so expect cutting edge sound and lighting, and one of the best atmospheres on the island, along with a few extra special surprises… Plus to mark the occasion, Carl will be opening the season with a mighty 10-hour set, one hour for every year, playing music that represents his decade at Space.
“I want to play everything that has made our Tuesday night what it is,” says Carl. “And when I drop a classic tune I know it’ll bring a lump to my throat. An old tune can take you right back to that moment, so this summer will be emotional, for sure.”
Things have changed quite a bit since Carl first started his residency at the White Isle’s favourite club, back in the summer of 2002. “When I took on the residency, there weren’t many DJs taking over a club whole heartedly,” remembers Carl. “As a DJ I was already playing at most of the clubs, but I wasn’t able to find my own sound and really play what I stood for. So I decided I wanted to play at one club, where I could put everything into it.”
There was no doubt in his mind which club that would be - “Space has always been a very special place. It set the precedent for the after-hours club and it was the first and at the time, only place where you could listen to dance music under the sun. There was no other club like it. Still isn’t today. For me it’s always been Space or nothing.”
Joining Carl to celebrate his landmark anniversary will be:
Marco Bailey / Yousef / Dubfire / Richie Hawtin / Magda / Nicole Moudaber / Christian Smith / Umek / Pukka UP DJs / Future Disco DJs / Josh Wink / DJ Vibe / Nic Fanciulli / Steve Mulder / Roni Size / Fedde le Grand /Carlo Lio / Michel de Hey.
