/in , , /by

RDC

Rainbow Disco Club is known world-over as Japan’s premier boutique festival, and with good reason. Last year the festival ended up in Resident Advisor’s Top 10 Festivals to attend in May thanks to a roster of artists that blends worldwide talent with the top of Japan’s dance music DJ pool.

The festival moved to its current location at Higashi Izu Cross Country Course in Shuzuoka in 2015, also expanding for the first time to a three-day operation. This new tradition is set to continue between Friday 29th of April and Sunday May 1st this year, with another selection of fine dance music artists set to provide the musical backdrop for the weekend.

Legend Andrew Weatherall will be accompanied by the likes of Nightmares On Wax, who will be playing a DJ set, Gilles Peterson and Move D. A selection of Rush Hour Allstars will also be returning to the festival’s decks  with Antal, Hunee, Soichi Terada and San Proper all set to represent the highly acclaimed label this year. Other local talent comes in the form of Kenji Takimi, Kaoru Inoue, Kikiorix and Sisi, while The Black Madonna is scheduled for an exclusive back-to-back set with the esteemed DJ Nobu. Red Bull is sponsoring a separate stage with a program that includes DJ Funk, Egyptian Lover, Kuniyuki as well as DJ Sodeyama, one our selected artists to watch for 2016!

It’s that time of year again! No, not Christmas, but close enough if you’re lucky to be in Ibiza during closing season. Space Ibiza is notorious for having one of the best closing parties and the super club has announced the official lineup for their closing Fiesta.

Taking place on Sunday, October 4th, Space Ibiza is bringing Playa d’en Bossa a 17 hour dance extravaganza to kiss Summer 2015 goodbye.

Some notable artists also featured at the 2015 Space Closing are Ben Klock, Federico Grazzini, John Talabot in addition to  some of the El Row residents: De La Swing, Marc Maya, Toni Varga, and George Privati.

The lineup will continue to expand throughout the week, but we can definitely expect some fantastic back-to-back sets. Carl Cox will start the evening off on the outdoor Ultra Ibiza stage and close off the evening with a back-to-back set with Saved Record’s Nic Fanciulli in the Terrace.

Timewarp Announces 2015 Mannheim Lineup

/in , , /by

Timewarp, one of the most monumental festival brands, has recently announced their lineup for 2015 in Mannheim, Germany. The German mega-festival will commence Sunday April 5th at 8:00pm and continue well into Monday afternoon.

Timewarp appears to be sticking with the cast of usual suspects that has brought them success over their long history. Many Timewarp residents such as Sven VĂ€th and Pan Pot make their return, with several fresh additions that stand out on the 2015 edition. Audion [Live] and Dubfire’s Live Hybrid performances should be highly anticipated, especially at a festival that caters to all aspects of the audio and visual performance.

Mannheim is where it all began for Timewarp, making each and every year a special moment for the city and for those who travel to experience the festival. If the lineup or overall aura surrounding Timewarp isn’t convincing, perhaps take a look at the 2014 Aftermovie below. This year will be another strong edition with a phenomenal selection of artists.

For the full Timewarp lineup you can visit their Facebook or Official Site. They also have a great section on packages and travel for those interested in making the pilgrimage to Mannheim this April.
