  • SALIR POR IBIZA Privilege Ibiza
    SALIR POR IBIZA La ciudad de Ibiza ofrece a sus visitantes una variada oferta de ocio. Los barrios del Puerto, la Marina y Playa d’en Bossa concentran la diversión nocturna de la ciudad. La noche ibicenca es famosa en el mundo entero. Discotecas, bares, pubs, restaurantes invaden las calles de la isla e iluminan con sus luces la noche ibicenca. Ibiza es conocida mundialmente por albergar las mejores discotecas y fiestas del mundo. La vida nocturna, que en el caso de Ibiza se alarga durante el día y empalma con el día siguiente, es una irrefrenable sucesión de fiestas, una detrás de otra, e incluso varias a la vez, donde se disfruta de la mejor música house a nivel mundial. Por cada una de las discotecas de Ibiza, pasan cada día los mejores djs del mundo (en su mayoría de música house) y los mejores grupos de animación. La gente que acude a estas discotecas rebosa glamour, son en su mayoría fashion victims y gran parte además son gays. La diversidad de públicos, el respeto de los unos a los otros, las mentes abiertas, son las notas características que hacen de la isla un lugar para disfrutar al máximo sin ningún tipo de prejuicios. Privilege Ibiza Dirección: carretera entre Ibiza y San Antonio, cerca de San Rafael Una enorme pista central con piscina, techos de 25 metros de altura, diversas salas al aire libre y un aforo de 10.000 personas, hacen que Privilege esté considerada como la discoteca más grande del mundo por el Libro Guinness de los Récords.

  • The Spaces, Politics, and Cultural Economies of Electronic Dance Music Alistair Fraser* Department of Geography, National University of Ireland Maynooth
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by MURAL - Maynooth University Research Archive Library Geography Compass 6/8 (2012): 500–511, 10.1111/j.1749-8198.2012.00505.x The Spaces, Politics, and Cultural Economies of Electronic Dance Music Alistair Fraser* Department of Geography, National University of Ireland Maynooth Abstract This paper examines the spaces, politics, and cultural economies of electronic dance music (EDM). I use geographical literature on EDM to argue that its hedonistic spaces have been forged via cultural economic practices which I conceptualize as constitutive of a process of ‘accumulation by cooperation’. In numerous contexts, the people of EDM – the DJs, producers, MCs, artists, promoters, and ravers – have chipped in, worked alongside each other, collaborated, and shared ideas, emotions, and knowledge with a view to producing and re-producing cultural economies and hedonistic spaces shot through by a complex, contradictory politics. I. Introduction During the last 20 years or so and throughout the world, genres of music associated with the generic label ‘electronic dance music’ (hereafter, EDM) – such as ‘house’, ‘techno’, ‘trance’, ‘drum & bass’, and ‘dubstep’ – have emerged and become relatively popular and influential. These musical varieties are mostly made electronically by combining hardware such as samplers, synthesizers, and drum machines with sophisticated music production software operated on computers. Such technologies make it possible for an artist or pro- ducer to make EDM without knowing how to play a musical instrument – an odd idea in the geo-history of music. EDM artists combine technologies and their talents with a general determination to make audiences dance (or, as per some ‘downbeat’ or ‘ambient’ genres, to allow audiences to relax or ‘chill’ before or after they go out to dance) in late- or all-night events in nightclubs and ‘raves’.

Danny’s expertise on the island is now elsewhere as he has teamed up with Eden’s new Dutch owner Michael Van De Kruit to help guide and boost the San Antonio club’s music policy and build Eden as an international brand. He is also due to open the highly anticipated Booom (formally Bomba) club which boasts some seriously exciting line ups for this season. Having been instrumental in shaping Ibiza over the years Clubz caught up with Danny last week in Ibiza to find out more. So, why Eden? As if you didn't have enough on your plate. I am excited to work with Eden. I have always worked on the Ibiza side of the island but I have always been a fan of San Antonio. It’s the entry point for most people to the island so I have always thought it deserved an amazing nightclub and now Michael and his team have delivered one. There is still work to be done to help change the perception of what it used to be to the amazing place that it now is, but we are up for the challenge.
