A Christmas present: Sonica´s Best of 2013

Llega final de año y es hora de hacer balance, musical en este caso. Todos los medios empiezan a publicar las listas de "Lo Mejor" , y efectivamente, eso de "lo mejor" es muy, muy muy relativo. Así que sin más hemos decidido no llegar a ningún consenso, porque es imposible, y publicar las listas de cada uno de los shows de Sonica . Evidentemente alguno se han negado con la típica actitud de "odio las listas", y bajo la premisa de elegir los mejores 20 álbums y los mejores 20 temas cada uno ha hecho lo que ha querido. Los hay que han entregado solo tracks, otros solo 10 y algunos sin orden de preferencia. Así es Sonica: libre pero ordenada. Impuntual pero al final todos llegan a la cita. Y así queremos que sea. Al final a los "musical wankers" nos encanta hablar de música sin parar, curiosear en las listas de los demás y opinar sobre los gustos de los selectores. Pero sobretodo nos encanta compartir música, así que ahí va, lo mejor del año para los selectores Sonicos. Feliz Navidad!
========================================================================

It's the end of the year so it's time to reflect on all the music we played, we heard and we danced to during 2013.  To do this collectively here at Ibiza Sonica, we and all our regular shows/guests have compiled some end of year playlists for you to scour over and enjoy.  Individually, everyone has their own way of compiling their favourite track lists of both albums and singles so nothing is in any particular order.  The most important thing is to share what we all love, and what you all love, and that ultimately is MUSIC. So here you have it, a bundle of tracks and albums, gems and in some case musical weapons from the Sonicos.  Happy Christmas, be groovy.

BEN HOO – STILL FRAME / WE ARE NIGHT PEOPLE (Tuesdays/Thursdays alternate)

How many young producers could say they'd remixed Fever Ray, Moby, M.A.N.D.Y & Booka Shade and Tiga before even releasing a solo single?  If there has been a theme running throughout London producer Ben Hoo's career to date, it's that he's never wedded himself to a single style. Ben Hoo's diversity as a producer is mirrored in his role as a DJ, where you're just as likely to hear him playing deep, dark house and techno to Berlin crowds as well as providing the soundtrack to sunsets in Ibiza. Ben Hoo has 2 radio shows on Ibiza Sonica, "Ben Hoo's Still Frame", a daytime downtempo show, and "We Are Night People" an evening show, representing Hoo's darker side. Both shows are broadcast globally on www.ibizasonica.com.

RALPH LAWSON – 2020 VISION SHOW (Fridays 7pm)

Ralph Lawson has played a huge role in underground dance music for the past two decades.  Lawson is also widely considered to be one the very best DJs in the world.  He currently holds residencies at Back To Basics Leeds, We Love Space Ibiza and Barcelona’s The Loft as well as regular appearances at Berlin’s Watergate and London’s Fabric.  Bill Brewster (“Last Night a DJ Saved My Life”) described Ralph as undoubtedly one of “the UK’s best-kept secrets.” Ralphs Lawson’s DJ sets always contain the energy found in Techno, yet are deeply instilled with the roots of House music.  His pedigree as a producer means that everything is put together in a very musical way as warm analogue synths flow over live drums and programmed beats. The 2020 Vision leader’s electronic cutting-edge sound manages to demand everybody's attention. Always forward thinking, Lawson brings a European sensibility to the American roots of house music.
