Tox Ibiza is ready to bring a whole range of broad new musical experiences to the White Isle this summer, and one of them is the GYPSY party each Sunday. It kicks off on June 19th with a huge opening party featuring founder and curator Simone Gigante with Pig&Dan, The Organism, Josh Gigante and Manfredi. The rest of the season features names like Sharam Jey, Eddy Cabrera, Betoko, Bushwacka, Valentino Kanzyani, Magdelena, Matthias Meyer, Chus and many more who will all make this the most essential Sunday party on the island.

This tasteful and underground party is curated by Simone Gigante and it is all about hedonistic and throwback sounds that rekindle the old Ibiza hippie times from 30 years ago. Add in some tropical techno and exotic boho house grooves and you have the perfect mix of the old and the new. The location for all this is Destino Ibiza’s underground club Tox which has gold walls, a DJ booth at floor level and an intimate feel very different to anything else in Ibiza.

Says founder Simone, “I’m very excited to bring back the old Ibiza where all that counts is the music, GYPSY is more than just a party, it’s a way of life. Don´t be slave of your life, liberate your mind…GYPSY SOUL SPIRIT.”

The much anticipated first party will set the scene for the whole season with Simone Gigante headlining next to Cocoon’s leading tech pair Pig&Dan, French production wizard The Organism as well as Simone’s son, Josh Gigante, who releases on Solomun’s Diynamic and is the man behind the hit ‘Attention Seekers,’ and Manfredi completes the line-up.

After that the rest of June sees Simone play next to the likes of London based Mexican tech house titan Betoko, Dwitches, Blanka Nova, Deep touch and more. July welcomes long time underground kingpin Bushwacka, a return for Pig&Dan, stylish house from Valentino Kanzyani, plus more from Sparrow & Barbossa, Oriol Calvo, Aaron Sevilla, Diynamic associate and Shadows party founder Magdalena, Derun and more.

August brings Chus who is famously one half of chart topping Spanish pair Chus & Ceballos, plus Savage&She, another set from Pig&Dan and much more and September welcomes Soul Brothers, Hoomance, Bruno From Ibiza, Juan Fierro, Alex Kentucky and then ends with a big closing on the 25th with Simone joined again by Pig&Dan, plus Manfredi, MEMO and Igor Marjuan.

The scene is now set for the more refreshing new party in Ibiza, make sure you are there each and every Sunday.

Forbidden Forest Reveal Epic Stage Sets and Forbidden Fields

by

Forbidden Forest unveil The Manor, The Bunker, The Reactor and Industria stages + Forbidden Fields

Forbidden Forest is just weeks away and today the enchanting musical escape announces final details of its four fantastically theatrical and mysterious stage designs. This intimate hideaway goes down in the stunning new location of The Belvoir Estate in Grantham from Saturday 2nd – Sunday 3rd July 2022. The biggest and best line-up to date includes headliners AJ Tracey, Craig David Pres. TS5, Bad Boy Chiller Crew, Adam Beyer, Basement Jaxx, Gorgon City, Patrick Topping, Shy FX + more and day, weekend and camping tickets are available from https://www.forbidden-forest.co.uk/tickets.

First up is The Manor with its gothic demeanour piercing through the treeline. It has stood for centuries and has long had ghostly tales attached to it, such as phantoms of women seen dancing around the grounds at night. However, it wasn’t until the late 19th century that true mystique fell upon the house and the surrounding forest when a mysterious man, known only as The Governor, took ownership of the estate. Within a week, all servants who had worked on the grounds were fired, shrouding The Manor and its new occupier in secrecy.

A giant concrete entrance to The Bunker emerged on the outskirts of the Forest at the time of WW2 when military vehicles descended on the manor, allegedly to begin top-secret training for the Allies and the war effort… at least that was the official story. Even after the war, locals could hear the rumble of activity near the site of the Bunker in the dead of night, and occasionally see bright flashes of light bursting through the trees.

The Reactor’s roots go back to the late 60’s when disaster struck. One quiet morning in Spring, a siren began to ring through the local area like the roar of a monstrous animal. Military personnel began door to door evacuations of the surrounding towns, the reason for such commission was at the time unknown. But as the years went on, and questions went unanswered, rumours began to surface of an Ecological disaster caused by the meltdown of a secret Reactor. Rumour had it that to keep his activities a secret, the Governor had constructed his own source of boundless energy, a gigantic Reactor core deep within the heart of the Forest. After its catastrophic meltdown, the Governor disappeared and the surrounding area has been known as the Forbidden Forest ever since.

Industria is in a clearing in what looks like an abandoned junkyard on the outskirts of the forest. Some suspect that this area was used for vehicle maintenance by the military, or for fixing experimental equipment. Others have made comments about the alien appearance of certain pieces of machinery. Whatever these objects are, and where they came from, remains a mystery.

New for this year, Forbidden Forest upgrades to a weekend camping festival and in true FF style, they aren’t holding back. The site will look like a festival site in itself and will host activities to keep all the happy campers entertained from Midday on Friday, right through until the early hours of Saturday and Sunday morning when the main arena closes before heading off early Monday afternoon. Forbidden Fields will include a fun fair, silent disco, plenty of bars, outdoor cinema, food village, 24 hour market place, chill out area, DJ trucks, games and much more.

The scene is now set and the final countdown is on to the most cinematic and immersive UK festivals of the summer.

Sophie is a Brand New Open Air Event Series for Southern Spain feat. Craig Richards, Apollonia, Sonja Moonear, Gene on Earth, Sweely, tINI, Paul Kalkbrenner (live), Nicolas Lutz, Enzo Siragusa, Seth Troxler and more

by

[a:rpia:r], Craig Richards, Paul Kalkbrenner, Sweely, Gene on Earth, Sonja Moonear, Nicolas Lutz, Francesco Del Garda, Jamie Jones, Apollonia, Seth Troxler, Enzo Siragusa and more will perform

Sophie is a brand new outdoor and open air event series that puts a global spotlight on the emerging city of Malaga. It is a lovingly curated experience from a hugely experienced team that fuses underground music and nature with a real sense of community and all of the city’s rich cultural history. It goes down every Sunday afternoon and evening from July 3rd to August 28th in an all-new, luxurious and sun-kissed secret venue located 15 minutes from Málaga’s city centre and 10 minutes from Málaga airport. Tickets start at 40EUR with a range of VIP packages and world class music guaranteed from Paul Kalkbrenner, Jamie Jones, Apollonia, Seth Troxler, [a:rpia:r], Enzo Siragusa, Craig Richards, Nicolas Lutz, Sonja Moonear, Mathew Jonson, tINI, Traumer, Francesco Del Garda, Gene On Earth, Sweely, and many more.

The team behind the newly born concept Sophie has been at the heart of the underground for years running various acclaimed parties around Europe. After a candid conversation between friends about the connections people make on the dance floor, Sophie was born with the aim of bringing something new, fresh and exciting to Málaga. All the people behind the project have lived there for years and now fully exploit the potential of Spain’s third largest city in terms of tourism, foreign investment, social development, global airport connections and economic growth in general.

With its amazing food, great beaches and now the arrival of Sophie, this city has it all. It goes down in a gloriously sun-kissed and naturalistic location, a purpose built escapist haven that blends in seamlessly with nature and makes for magical musical memories with a serious soundtrack and beach time vibes.

Says Giorgio Maulini, one of the founders of the project: “There was a big gap in Malaga that needed to be filled. A place where we could offer an alternative cultural celebration of life. Málaga has a really rich cultural proposal for folkloric music as Flamenco, POP or Latin music but there wasn’t a place where we could feel identified with. We have always been driven by the underground music culture and what it represents. The freedom of being who you are and not being afraid of showing it. We knew we wanted to create a place where we could help people discover this values, listen to quality music and at the same time change the stereotypes of our society to a more open minded, tolerant and give a real opportunity to alternative cultures which are actually the ones that help develop the collective consciousness and artistic scene of a city.”

The opening party features German techno legend Paul Kalkbrenner with a live show from Giorgia Angiuli,underground house grooves from the Mandar trio and Janeret. After that, the parties remain high quality and tasteful. Throughout July the acts include Enzo Siragusa, Traumer, Francesco Del Garda, Sweely, Anthea, Quest, Evan Baggs, Laurine & Cecilio, Seth Troxler, Dyed Soundorom, tINI, Giammarco Orsini, O.BEE, Tomas Station, Rakim Under, Dorado, Jamie Jones, Archie Hamilton, Giorgio Maulini, Chris Stussy, Reiss, Samuel Deep, Huerta, East End Dubs, Rich NxT, Rossko, Lola Haro, and Charlotte. August sees [a:rpia:r] and Praslea, Dan Andrei, Apollonia, Craig Richards b2b Nicolas Lutz, Gene on Earth, Sugar Free, Fonte, Mathew Jonson (live), Sonja Moonear, Priku, plus secret guests.

Málaga-Costa del Sol airport is connected to 133 destinations, with a total of 52 international airlines in operation making Sophie easy to get to from anywhere. It means there is no excuse not to hop on a plane and head off for a grown up and soul soothing party in paradise.

The countdown is on: 79 Days til Bloodstock 2022!

by
The clock is ticking!  There’s just 79 days left until the marauding hordes thunder their way through the gates of Catton Park, pitch their tents, crack some beers and kick off the best heavy metal weekender of the year! 

As is often unavoidable in these still uncertain times, there have been a couple of changes due to travel logistics for some bands, but BLOODSTOCK always finds a way!  As such, BLOODSTOCK is thrilled to announce that Sheffield’s fast-rising, hardcore heroes MALEVOLENCE are stepping in to headline the Sophie Lancaster stage on Saturday night – replacing Hatebreed, who’ve sadly had to pull out of a number of EU shows this August.  Fresh from their pulverising slot on Architects’ recent UK arena tour, MALEVOLENCE just released their new album, ‘Malicious Intent’.  If you’ve not had the chance to catch their incendiary live set just yet, you are in for a treat!  See what’s in store via 2021’s absolute slayer of a set at Catton Park and get ready for some serious pit action! 

BLOODSTOCK has been busy juggling line-ups on the Sophie Lancaster stage to fix other unforeseen logistical issues.  NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA will now headline on Sunday night and DARK TRANQUILLITY move to headline the Sophie tent on Thursday. 

BLOODSTOCK can also reveal the first phase of winners in their celebrated Metal 2 The Masses programme, all who’ll be appearing on the New Blood stage at some point across festival weekend. Landing Friday slots are Scottish heat victors and modern metal 5-piece CATALYSIS, plus Northern Ireland’s top dogs, the riff-heavy trio HAINT, the Republic of Ireland’s winners, blackened death metal squad FORNOTH and the Leeds heat champions and heavy metal militia, PARIAH. 

Also snagging Saturday sets on the New Blood stage are the Manchester final overlords, deathcore squad PORTRAYAL OF RUINN, Leeds’ victors, the melodic hardcore squad STEEL MAGE and Newcastle upon Tyne’s conquerors, the brutal deathcore outfit CAST IN TEPHRA. Also grabbing New Blood stage slots from CD submissions are ferocious Yorkshire 5-piece, IREOSIS, who land a Friday slot, dark symphonic deathcore outfit DRACONIAN REIGN score a Saturday slot and Sunday appearances will come from heavy rock power trio SWEET MAY and groove-laden riff-worshippers TORUS. 

BLOODSTOCK is also delighted to continue their Bloodstock-themed club nights across the country!  Local rock pubs and clubs are a key part of what BLOODSTOCK does with the ‘Metal 2 The Masses’ scheme, so we’re stoked to continue supporting them by announcing the second wave of club nights for 2022.  Get along to your local event, hear a metric ton of beefy tunes from BOA bands past and present and be in with a chance of winning a pair of standard weekend tickets. Dates & times are subject to change, so check locally for latest info. 
If you’ve already got your ticket bagged, maybe you’re now thinking about how best to get to Catton Park?  BLOODSTOCK is pleased to support two sustainable travel options – Big Green Coach (who’ll drop you & your gear right inside the festival gates for minimal walking, from 33 locations around the UK. Reserve your seat for just a tenner) and Liftshare (a safe way to offer up a spare seat in your car, or nab one in someone else’s & make new friends to boot).  Get more info on both options over at BIG GREEN COACH and LIFTSHARE.  

As part of BLOODSTOCK’s continued sustainability drive, they’re encouraging everyone to say a big NO to single use tents.  TANGERINE FIELDS and FAT FRANK’S CAMPING SHOP will be on site to help!  Both solutions make travelling to the festival via public transport, car share, Big Green Coach or even flying in from abroad, so much easier.  When you rent from TANGERINE FIELDS, arrive on site and your tent, bed & bedding will be all set up ready and waiting in the Asgard campsite.  Come Monday morning, no need to worry about packing it up, the Tangerine team will take care of it.  No hassle, no waste, no sore arms!  Get full details on their pre-erected tent service here. 

Alternatively, FAT FRANK’S CAMPING SHOP – situated in the Midgard campsite – offer a Click & Collect service (as well as Loan & Go).  You can pre-purchase any or all of your camping needs on their website and collect it all at the festival (stop by their stand and they’ll even blow up your air bed).  If you don’t want to take down and lug the tent home afterwards, you can even donate the tent back at FAT FRANK’S stand. They donate all used tents possible to homeless charities and youth groups.
