Kerri CHANDLER and Robert OWENS Live Broadcast from BLUE MARLIN Closing Party / Sunday October 2nd

This Sunday is the end of the Blue Marlin summer.

A season which was full of sun, sea and good music…

Kerri 'Kaoz' Chandler one of deep house music's originators, has been injecting soul into music since the early nineties. An ambassador of the natural and instinctive 4/4 beat, Kerri's influences can be traced back to New Jersey growing up in a family of jazz musicians.

Since the signing of his first single "SuperLover/Get It Off" by Atlantic in 1991, Kerri began producing a prolific body of work that has helped coin him one of the most respected house producers in the world.

After being nominated a couple of months ago, Kerri Chandler was awarded the accolade of best Deep House DJ at this esteemed international award ceremony on 27th September 2011 hosted at Pacha, Ibiza. A genuine compliment & ’tilt of the cap’ by fans and industry alike, Kerri won ahead of talented and respected peers including Ben Watt, Charles Webster, Jimpster, Kaskade, Francois Kervorkian & Claude Van Stroke.

Asked about the biggest tune of the summer…

« It has to be Davide Squillace and Guti – That Ginger Ponytail. It had a buzz on it, long before I even got to remix it. »

It sounds Old School...

Ask any fan of dance music who their favourite male vocalist is and nine times out of ten Robert Owens name will come back. Sure, there are other great male house vocalists out there, but with more than twenty years as a gifted singer, songwriter, producer and DJ under his belt, Robert has not so much embellished house music as played a large part in defining it.

his first EP "I'll Be Your Friend" release on the famous London label 1trax was remixed by stars like Jamie Jones, Soul Clap, Gadi Mizrahi and Inxec & Matt Tolfrey. This song also appears in the Video Game Grand Theft Auto : San Andreas.

From the gritty but sublime Trax of yesteryear to the forward-looking projects of today, Robert Owens is one of dance music's true legends, a man who has his roots in the future and his feet planted firmly on the earth - and a man who has never been afraid of sharing himself with others.

In september 2^nd, he was in London in THE NEST club, where he did a very good live, that you can listen here.

Robert Owens Live At The Nest by The Nest

Robert Owens’s voice will appear in a track called « Hope » on the new Oliver Huntemann LP, Paranoia which will be released in next november.

BLUE MARLIN RADIO y IBIZA SONICA

will retransmit this big closing party this sunday from 20H00 to 23H00.

AMNESIA / EL CIERRE 2011 Closing Party / Saturday October 1st

« El Cierre, the Biggest Closing Party Ever" is the "closing" that far surpasses any others, the most important of Ibiza, definitely not one to miss. A night which brings together the finest clubbers worldwide to commemorate the end of a season full of success. Over 12 hours of non-stop music at the best club in the world, Amnesia. »

Two rooms, two differents ambients.

Everybody’ll find what is coming for...

In the Mainroom, the MATINEE All Stars Djs get the power.

They made you dance all summer, they will be all present this Saturday to offer you the best MATINEE sound, all night long.

In the Terrace, very big line up !

Richie Hawtin, The founder of the famous minimal label MINUS, is one of the pioneers of the second detroit techno wave, and knew impose himself like flag-waver for the underground Detroit scene. Resident of the COCOON parties, he already stormed many times the Amnesia this Summer.

We also remember his impressive live 1.5 under his pseudonym Plastikman in Amnesia on August 5th and its very special last track. Not for everyone…

"A set is created to make dance the crowd not for listening at home. A electronic set should only be heard in the party and when this party finishes the set shouldn't be heard for nobody, it should only be keeped on the mind of clubbers who were in the event."

Richie Hawtin

Loco Dice is someone, who can puzzle together intangible moods with a direct approach. Via his DJ sets or his productions on labels like M_nus, Cadenza, Ovum, Four Twenty and Cocoon, he merges perspectives in his delicate sense for sounds and reflective atmospheres, underpinned with solid, physical grooves inspired by the hip hop that was his early sonic stomping ground in the mid- to late ‘90s. There’s something there for the dreamers, as well as for the 9-to-5ers who just want to lose everything in a moment of abandon on the dancefloor.

« Every so often, a Dj or producer comes along who inspires the collective imagination »

Cocoon Records about Loco Dice.

Like Richie Hawtin, Loco Dice too will be just came back of the Time Warp festival where they will just have played the same day in the afternoon. What a life !

Marco Carola is the recognized global ambassador of Italian techno. It's a position he treats with the utmost care and respect—and one that stands him among the hallowed company of contemporary techno's leading practitioners. He became the first Neopolitan artist to commit techno to vinyl, paving the way for an entire generation of producers.

These days Marco is a mainstay of Richie Hawtin's Minus and Plus 8 labels, who, much like Marco himself, are one of the driving forces behind techno's permeation of the worldwide dance scene.

On february 7th, he released his last album on Minus, Play it Loud !

« I've been playing at Amnesia Closing for about 5 years and year-by-year - at the start it was just residents and now - they've decided to push some guests. And the last 2 years has been crazy, the number of people coming has tripled or quadrupled and I've seen it growing. It's a mix between really good club and choice of the DJs. »

« I always love playing at Amnesia in Ibiza, it's one of the only places where I get excited about playing a long time in advance. »

Marco Carola

The Zombie Kids, an energetic duo of Djs who have revolutionised the Spanish clubbing scene with explosive sessions and productions like their recent maxi “Face”, released onSubterfuge.

Edgar and Jay are the two pioneers behind The Zombie Kids. These two revolutionary Dj’s from Madrid, have totally changed Spain´s club scene. They have been called music terrorists because of their punk attitude while they are mixing electro, punk, hip hop, metal and every thing in between. Their style is not a music genre… it’s just pure attitude.

They will inflame the Amnesia Terrace for their first show on the Island sharing the desks with also Mar T and Paco Osuna…

COCOON HEROES Grand Closing Party / Monday September 26th / AMNESIA

Summer, sun, salt in the air! Finally, the season closings are coming! Where are the heroes of the night? You are my hero, I am your hero, all of you are our heroes. Everybody, friends and hands, shamans and magicians. The masters of loudness as well as the many helpers in the background, without whom all this would not be possible. We are one: Cocoon Heroes!

Come on, join the journey, because the island is ready for new heroes! Enjoy the sun, taste the salty air, meet again all the other heroes and embrace new ones. This is the flight into the heart of the beat, the perfect party and the following day in all its beauty. Not from this world – a short utopia – however, one that we are creating – together. With that power, this seemingly unending power of the sun. Let us make use from it, because we can succeed. We, the pirates, the travellers, the dancers and the artists, and all the others. A dream? Yes, sure – but one we are able to live, thanks to you. A dream that we create, a dream that we make come true. Together with you! Because we are the party: Cocoon Heroes!

.

The Cocoon Kaiser Sven Vath will storm the mainroom with Loco Dice and Maetrik.

If you’ve seen Loco Dice perform at his ten-year-long Tribehouse residency in his hometown Düsseldorf, or at DC- 10 in Ibiza (from ’02-’06), you will have clicked to this. Loco Dice is someone, who can puzzle together intangible moods with a direct approach.
Via his DJ sets or his productions on labels like M_nus, Cadenza, Ovum, Four Twenty and Cocoon, he merges perspectives in his delicate sense for sounds and reflective atmospheres, underpinned with solid, physical grooves inspired by the hip hop that was his early sonic stomping ground in the mid- to late ‘90s. There’s something there for the dreamers, as well as for the 9-to-5ers who just want to lose everything in a moment of abandon on the dancefloor.

Maetrik aka Eric Estornel, also famous under the names, MARIEL ITO, MACEO PLEX, and simply ESTORNEL, has been contributing to his musical world around him since 1993. Always searching for the future of electronic dance, Eric has never let himself be confined by the rules of styles or genres as he makes his way through such a political and fickle industry.

It sounds minimal…

Another room, another Heroes…

No need to present Ricardo Villalobos, Berlin based Dj, one of the best-known names in contemporary electronica and one of the most solicited Djs worldwide and a renowned musician.

After his first trip to Ibiza in 1995, Ricardo adopted the island as a third home. He played at a Cocoon event at Amnesia in 1999 and joined the Cocoon booking agency later that year.

“Listening to ECM for decades, it sharpens your ear really.” R. Villalobos

Raresh, The native-born Romanian signed on the Romanian label ar[pi]ar, showed us how meteoric one’s rise in the world of electronic music can turn out to be.

Nothing.

More than ever. I can fill the gaps that are everywhere.

Still have a tank and a submarine?
