Ibiza Tourists Could Face On-Street Alcohol Consumption Fines
Ibiza tourists could face very huge fines if local authorities spot them consuming alcoholic drinks while on the street past certain hours. According to an article from DJ Mag, the fines that the Ibiza tourists may face fines that can go up to £2,580 (€3,081/$3,173) if they consume alcohol on the streets of the popular San Antonio tourist area (one of the most-innovative nightclubs there to check out is ‘NOSPACE’, the hotspot that the music venue label Eden Ibiza recently opened last summer). These fines that the partygoers, clubbers, and ravers may face are a result of the recent laws that the Balearic Islands provincial government introduced back in May 2024. The laws state that there is a ban on on-street alcoholic drinking and selling of alcohol between 9:30 p.m. and 8 a.m. in top destinations such as the aforementioned San Antonio area and the Majorca hotspots of Playa de Palma and Magaluf. Ibiza tourists, as well as those visiting other Balearic Island hotspots, may face fines that can hit their wallets hard The Birmingham Mail reported that minor offenses to these regulations will provide the fines of €750–1,500 (£645–1,290/$772-1,544). Meanwhile, the more serious offenses of “anti-social behavior” (which can include such actions like fighting, vandalism, property destruction, etc.), the fines will be around €1,500–3,000 (£1,290–£2,580/$1,544-3,088). Getting back to the San Antonio area of Ibiza, these regulations do affect the party boats and yachts within one nautical mile of that area. However, the regulations do not affect bars, restaurants, or clubs. As of May 2024, the Balearic Islands provincial government will enforce these regulations until 2027. The provincial government’s main goal of these regulations is to not only curb down the “anti-social behavior” but also ease down on the “excessive tourism” that have affected these islands for the past decade. For any Ibiza tourists who want to look for more calm hotspots can check out Es Cana and Santa Eulària. If they want to go Majorca, the scenic environments of Pollensa, Sóller and Alcúdia are also beautiful locations to take in the views, sunshine, and blissful harmony in as well. But of course, anyone visiting these locations should still be mindful of not just the regulations, but also the local people and the businesses there too, just like if they were to visit any hotspots around the world.

Claude VonStroke Teases Comeback, Shares His "First Major DJ Mix" From 2007
The subject line of Barclay Crenshaw's latest newsletter featured just two words, short yet electrifying: "VonStroke returns." This bold declaration sent ripples of excitement through fans of the beloved house music producer, who spent the past year exploring his bass music alias. The official announcement that Claude VonStroke will tour in 2025 arrived last month, but the Dirtybird label boss has now dusted off a special treat from his archives to tide over his eager fanbase as they await his return. The surprise? VonStroke's "first ever DJ mix," which aired back in 2007 via BBC Radio 1 and is now available to download for the first time. The mix arrived just two years after his groundbreaking debut record, "Deep Throat." VonStroke described recording for BBC Radio 1 as "a right of passage for tastemakers who call themselves DJs." "I remembered loading this mix with every possible ounce of my personality and the full character of what I was trying to do as Claude VonStroke," he wrote in an Instagram post. "If you have been missing the stank, the funk, the minimal house vibes and you have had it with commercial tech house… to be continued." You download and listen to the mix here.

David Guetta Looking To Make “Great Music” Again
In recent years David Guetta has been finding a lot of chart success in an era where most electronic music artists have faded away from the mainstream. Guetta has always been incredibly good at adapting to the times to make music that finds its way to the top and draws in more new fans. Despite this success, in a recent interview with Fun Radio he expressed that he wants to take his style in a different direction to make “great music” again. The Frenchman has traversed multiple genres over the years, but now he’s looking to make the music that he wants to make as opposed to trying to follow any trends. He was fairly vague about the type of music he’s going to be making though he did mention ‘Titanium’ and ‘She Wolf’ as examples of tracks he’s made that he considers great so that could be a hint as to the direction he’s going. He also talked about working “with violin sections like I [Guetta] did at one time, recording orchestras” which would be an awesome element to see back in his productions. Ultimately, it’s looking like a very promising year for music from him with the possibility of hearing the classic Guetta returning along with hearing some new sounds from him. Whether it be a return to future rave, going back to early 2010s Guetta, or something entirely new it’s an incredibly exciting prospect to have him firing on all cylinders and feeling inspired going into this year.

The Evolution of Alesso
Alesso is one of the best DJs and producers in the world and has produced some of the most iconic EDM tracks of all time. Over the years his sound has evolved, his style has changed, and he has masterfully adapted to the times and trends. With how his style has shifted over his career, we thought it was time to have a look back to the beginning to see how he has evolved as an artist and how he’s managed to continuously be successful for so long. He initially gained some recognition in 2010 with his ‘Alesso EP’ which caught the attention of Sebastian Ingrosso who contacted him about working together. From there on Ingrosso acted as a mentor to him and helped him improve his productions and DJing skills. Alesso found success incredibly fast with his remix of Nadia Ali’s ‘Pressure’ in 2011 that the likes of Armin van Buuren, Tiesto, Calvin Harris and Swedish House Mafia started playing it in their sets. This would kick off several years of unstoppable success for him with the releases of some of his most successful tracks. Only a year on from the release of ‘Pressure’, Alesso would collaborate with the legendary Sebastian Ingrosso to make what has become an absolute classic, ‘Calling (Lose My Mind).’ This track would gain him even more praise along with establishing his style of euphoric progressive house. However, he had more tricks up his sleeve which he would unveil with heavier tracks such as the addictive ‘Tear The Roof Up’ and ‘Clash’ that showed his insane talent for being able to hop between genres which he continues to do today. His rise to stardom came quickly as in 2012 he would join Madonna at a few of her shows on her ‘MDNA’ tour which really spread his name around the world. After ranking 70th on the DJ Mag Top 100 DJ’s list in 2011, he made a monumental 50 place jump up to 20th the following year. Over the next few years his reputation kept on growing and in 2015 he would bring together several years of work into the masterpiece that was his debut album ‘Forever’ reaching new heights as it would hit number 1 on the US Top Dance/Electronic Albums. After this success he surprisingly changed his style quite drastically to making a lot of chilled out dance pop, but he did find a great deal of success in this change. Most notably his collaboration with Hailee Steinfeld ‘Let Me Go’ garnered great critical reception reaching number 2 on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart and has since crossed the 1 billion stream mark on Spotify. Also, in 2018 he would realise a lifelong dream as he got the honour of performing the closing set at Tomorrowland ending his set with ‘Calling (Lose My Mind)’ which made for an epic end to the festival. More big pop collabs followed with the likes of Katy Perry, Zara Larsson and Liam Payne though something else was starting to creep back into the picture. Alesso began to make a massively welcome return to his euphoric progressive house sound with releases such as ‘One Last Time’ alongside DubVision and the club mix of ‘Leave A Little Love’ with Armin Van Buuren. Gradually the epic house bangers started to outnumber the pop songs and the DJ from Stockholm started to grow back into the EDM scene. The last few years have now seen some of Alesso’s finest work with his beautiful progressive house anthem ‘Only You’showing his ability to draw out a whirlwind of emotions with his music and his fantastic ‘Hypnotize EP’being a haven of club bangers. He’s back to being one of the top EDM artists with him now climbing 19 places up the DJ Mag Top 100 DJ’s list in the last 2 years and also performing more huge headline sets at the biggest festivals in the world including closing out Creamfields in 2024. Alesso is undoubtably an icon of electronic music.

Fans Are Worrying That Tale of Us May Split Up
The odyssey through the realm of consciousness might be reaching its end! As Afterlife Tulum kicked off 2025, whispers abound that Afterlife Tulum 2025 might be the last Afterlife event or the last set from Tale of Us. Why is it that these rumors are circulating at a time when Afterlife and the melodic techno sound it pioneered have become a global phenomenon? Let’s examine the signs. The Calendar A quick browse of the Afterlife website offers our first red flag. There are no events on the calendar right now, with Afterlife Tulum being the last (although Anyma’s Sphere residency has not concluded). Beyond this, there is not a single Tale of Us booking for a 2025 festival yet. Major festivals which have typically booked Tale of Us are now featuring Anyma, such as Ultra or Kappa Futur Festival. One festival that holds our biggest clue is Tomorrowland. Tale of Us has become a major staple of the festival in recent years, playing every year since 2017. Their Afterlife takeover has grown to occupy the Freedom Stage for both Weekends for two consecutive years. Tomorrowland even entered into a partnership with Afterlife for merchandise and then allowed Anyma to use his own visuals on the mainstage (which almost never happens). If Tomorrowland drops its stage hosts without Afterlife, then the worst has come to pass. We would not be surprised to see Anyma swap in where Afterlife would have been. The event calendar has been filled with Afterlife shows since 2016, the year Afterlife was founded. The same could be safely assumed for MRAK. Rumors suggest the cracks had started back in May last year when MRAK was accused of sexual abuse in Argentina. An individual by the name of Liliana Nuno took to Instagram to share her experience with Carmine Conte (MRAK). Nothing more ever happened publicly regarding these allegations, but whatever the truth may be could have had an effect on the duo. Many thought it was strange that Afterlife had no event in New York City in 2024, after the Brooklyn Mirage shows sold out three nights in a row in record time. Chemistry Fading The videos circulating from Afterlife Tulum do not offer solace either, showing a lack of chemistry between the pair. One could assume that the two are not speaking to each other after watching the videos. The same was observed during Afterlife’s show in Abu Dhabi last month. Social media is abuzz with these rumors as well. Many speculate that the success of the Anyma project is the source of the falling out, and that Carmine has not handled the situation well. The biggest red flag in this department is that Mrak did not perform at all during Anyma’s The End of Genesys residency. It’s unclear whether he was invited to or not, but it does not appear he even attended. Going Dormant A fan also pointed out that ‘it’s been 1,279 days since Tale of Us released an original track’. The Tale of Us Instagram page has not posted anything since the Tomorrowland recap post on July 23, 2024. Their last Facebook post is from July 9, 2024 at Kappa Futur Festival. A quick browse of Beatport reveals that the last Afterlife release was the MRAK EP released on October 4, 2024. Anyma’s most recently single ‘Angel In The Dark’ was released on a new Anyma label called The End of Genesys rather than Afterlife. His next single with Ellie Goulding is also set for release on the new label. Another very worrying sign. The signs seem to point to the journey through consciousness coming to an end, at least in its current form. We suspect there will be a nearly definitive answer to these questions when Tomorrowland releases its lineup over the next month. At that point there will be no more hiding if things are truly done. Some second-hand rumors state that they will stick it out for 2025 or some portion of the year and play out a few more shows, but either way it appears that the days are numbered for this beloved duo.

Drumsheds Retains License To Stay Open
Drumsheds is one of the biggest and best clubs in the UK having hosted some of the biggest names in electronic music and boasting an incredible 15,000 capacity. However, recently the clubs future has been in jeopardy as their license has been under review by Enfield Council following some serious incidents. Towards the end of last year there were two cases of people dying due to drug use at the venue as well as someone being stabbed. An investigation into these incidents lead to the conclusion that Drumsheds had some big failings in their security procedures with people not being searched properly on entry along with a lack of care shown by the inhouse medical staff. This led to their license coming under review as the club was deemed unsafe. Thankfully Drumsheds has been allowed to keep their license as long as they follow certain conditions to ensure the safety of all club goers and staff. Searches upon entry are now much more thorough which has led to some complaints but will undoubtably make it a safer environment. There is also an increased police presence to ensure that any problems can be dealt with and that the response times can be quick which could save lives. Though some of the changes that have been implemented have made for longer queues into the venue leading to some people going as far as requesting refunds for their tickets, these changes are absolutely necessary to avoid anymore horrific incidents. Drumsheds is a cornerstone of the UK club scene and in an era where there has been such a catastrophic amount of clubs shutting down it would be devastating to add them to that list.

Axtone Records Acquired by Pophouse, Axwell Staying On as Partner and Creative Advisor
Pophouse Entertainment has officially acquired Axtone Records, the influential electronic music label founded by Axwell, the company confirmed to EDM.com. The acquisition deepens the existing collaboration between the entertainment investment firm and Axwell, whose influence as a member of the iconic Swedish House Mafia trio has defined a generation of electronic dance music. Pophouse, which in 2022 acquired the master recordings and publishing rights for Swedish House Mafia's catalog, sees the move as a strategic step in amplifying the band's global impact while bolstering Axtone's growth. Under Pophouse's stewardship, Axtone now stands ready to write the next chapter in the label's enduring legacy. "The partnership with Axtone is already in operation and opens new avenues for creative and commercial development, including supporting Axtone with specialist resources and industry knowledge to accelerate the label and catalogue’s growth and to enable Swedish House Mafia to realize more of their exciting music projects," Pophouse told EDM.com in a statement. A number of music outlets had erroneously reported that Axwell, whose real name is Axel Hedfors, was stepping away from Axtone as part of the transaction. However, the DJ is retaining a prominent role as Founding Partner and Creative Advisor, Pophouse tells us, and he "will remain very involved in supporting Axtone’s talent as well as continuing to release new material." Axtone has released many celebrated songs that are now considered generational dance anthems, including "Tell Me Why" by Supermode, a side project of Hedfors and Swedish House Mafia's Steve Angello; and "In My Mind" by Ivan Gough and Feenixpawl, which received an Axwell remix and garnered the producer a 2011 Grammy nomination. These cultural touchstones, part of a broader catalog spanning over 200 tracks, have cemented the imprint as a cornerstone of progressive house music. Pophouse's move to acquire Axtone is part of its broader mission to grow and invest in brands with global potential and deep ties to dance music culture. The company in 2022 purchased a majority stake in Avicii's music catalog and is now developing a musical about the late EDM icon, whose life was recently explored in a high-profile Netflix documentary.

Anyma’s The End of Genesys is a Triumphant Glimpse Into the Future
Tale of Us‘ Matteo Milleri launched the Anyma project with an emphasis on the fusion of nature and technology, man & machine, and what it means to be alive. The Project launched to much fanfare as Anyma incorporated sophisticated NFT visuals which raised the bar for dance music show visuals. All of these elements were refined, expanded, and woven together to create The End of Genesys show, the very first electronic dance music show to take place at the revolutionary Sphere venue in Las Vegas. This was much more than a rave or a party, it was a cultural touchpoint and a revolutionary moment in entertainment that will reverberate far into the future. With this show, Anyma achieves the level of genius that many would assign to legends like Avicii. It’s unlike anything you’ve ever experienced, and it includes two completely different experiences depending on your location within the Sphere. Attention Off the DJ For years, a common refrain in the EDM community from veterans is that back in the day the DJ was in a separate room and people just danced, whereas today everybody stands facing the DJ as if it’s some idol worship. The ironic thing about The End of Genesys is that it highlights, in epic fashion, the genius of Anyma, while allowing him to fade into the background of the show. The gargantuan screen of the Sphere diverts your attention to the artificial atmosphere created around and above you. You will be constantly looking around, taking it all in. I was unaware when Grimes took the stage to perform a new collaboration live, because I was too busy looking around at the scenery. Sure you will notice the intricate platforms Anyma included for himself and his robotic musicians but they are but a blip in this digital universe before you. How you feel about this will depend on whether you view the show as a dance party or an opera. Some may find it odd to be so focused on the screen and the visuals, but it’s not anything like other visual techno shows. That Screen That screen! Oh my God, that screen! While Tale of Us and Anyma have made the big screens and gorgeous visuals a calling card over the past few years, the Sphere is an entirely different level. The sheer size and detail of these visuals is mindboggling. When there is a sky full of stars projected overhead, it really feels like the sky. The most gamechanging aspect of the Sphere screen happens right at the beginning (shown above). When the robot falls backwards into a void and falls upside down to become the Afterlife hanging-man, your body will respond physically like it thinks you are falling. That’s the moment when the power of this experience becomes apparent. It feels like a theme park ride where you sit in the car the doesn’t move but just tilts and vibrates with the screen in front. It tricks your brain into thinking you are falling or that there is a sky overhead, and more. Even with the simpler visuals utilized by the opening acts, the detail was staggering. You can’t help but examine every bit of it to try and make sense of what’s being displayed. Again, the visuals were so impressive that the DJs blended into the background while people in the crowd took in this revolutionary experience. Two Completely Different Experiences in One I was fortunate enough to have both prime viewing angle seats in Section 203 and floor tickets. The experience for these two types of tickets is completely different. If you have a seat you will have a prime viewing angle of the visuals and the scope of them will be fully apparent. The seats vibrate and even have audio built in, but for the most part people will be seated. Sure some people will stand up and vibe, but it’s not the majority. The seats provide an opera-like experience, where you watch the show like you’re in a theater. However, if you’re on the floor you feel the enormity of the screen so much more. Whereas the seats feel like you’re watching this cybernetic opera, the floor feels like you are living in it. The floor is definitely a more fun party-type experience where you can dance freely. Ideally, you’d experience both at some time or another. Narrative When the Sphere was completed, the EDM world speculated on the best artists for the space. Names that came up included Eric Prydz, Tale of Us, Anyma, etc, because these all include cutting edge technology and visuals. When discussing this with another industry colleague at the show, it came up that only Anyma has a narrative he is trying to convey using this very unique medium. While we love Eric Prydz HOLO, it’s more about the wow factor than it is telling any type of story to the audience. Here, Anyma took things beyond just cool visuals and technology. There is a narrative at work here during this five-part cybernetic opera, that explores themes so universal that they can be understood and appreciated by anybody there. While it might be difficult for somebody to tell you the story shown during this cybernetic opera, there is a loose narrative concerning the interaction of nature and technology, the differences between organic and artifical life, whether human and machine can love and care for each other, and the nature of life and death. The Music Anyma has, in a relatively short time, made a name for himself as a hit producer. Almost everything he touches turns to techno gold, and that was on full display at The Sphere. The show is mostly unreleased tracks, with each date featuring a unique collaboration premiere. There are also plenty of the most beloved prior releases (except ‘Running’ or ‘Angel 1’), but they are elevated by fully fleshed out visuals and a thematic tie-in for those tracks. ‘Consciousness’ was reworked and amplified to become this operatic theme that you won’t be able to get out of your head, and there was even at least one new remix of a prior Anyma track in there. The ID tracks were a delight across the board. Tracks like ‘From Japan’ had the entire crowd going wild to the sights and sounds, while the gorgeous ‘In The Dark’ and ‘You Make Me’ tugged at the heartstrings. There was a beautiful new remix for The Weeknd‘s ‘Blinding Lights’ which hints at more future collaborations between those heavyweights as well. The Future The coolest part about these shows is being part of history, an entertainment revolution if you will. It would be like attending the very first color movie theater screening or the type of revelation we all experienced seeing Avatar 3D in theaters for the first time. Being there for New Year’s Eve made it all the more special. In many ways, it felt like being at the center of the universe, and it was probably the hottest New Year’s Eve event in the world for 2024. As the clock approached midnight, the Sphere was dark and quiet during a changeover. As midnight ticked closer, Anyma took to the stage and the show began. Rather than the typical intro scene everybody has seen before, there were fireworks and the Las Vegas Skyline added in to make for a truly one-off experience that the audience will never forget. You realize during the show that this is an entirely new form of entertainment, like an interactive musical movie. The mind runs wild at the possibilities now that other artists have experienced this and could make a play for their own concept. While some may call it a gimmick or liken it to 3D movies that were only ever done properly by James Cameron, it feels like this is the future. You can envision a day when every city has a Sphere of one size or another like an opera house. We can’t wait to see what the future holds.
