As the lastest announcement in this week's string of Balearic-themed news, Pacha Ibiza and Guy Gerber have announced the details of the residency hinted at in the now quite contentious New York Times article about internal strategy shifts at Pacha this summer. If Pacha lost stars like Erick Morillo, Defected, and Luciano to Cipriani's new Bomba Ibiza , they've gained Guy Gerber. His "Wisdom of the Glove" residency will include magicians, shadow puppeteers, and fortune telling machine and the entire club will "pay sacrifice to a centrifugal glove-shaped force in the shape of a £150,000 [...]

' Knife Party ' represent the best kept open secret in all of EDM. For anyone who doesn't know, Knife Party is in fact made-up of ex-' Pendulum ' members Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen .

It’s hard to believe that it took Pacha NYC this long to bring the Swedish techno icon Adam Beyer to their storied dancing facility.

Last Saturday he graced the decks of the West 46 th street location with a marathon set that lasted into the early hours of the morning. Read past the break to hear how [...]

Thanksgiving Eve is the homely cousin of New Year's Eve, but that hasn't stopped the city that never sleeps from stepping into bed with her once a year.

Legendary DJ/producer Erick Morillo has certainly seen his fair share of Thanksgiving Eves, having shared last year's affair with Danny Tenaglia. With a career spanning over two decades, Morillo has racked up a series of chart-topping singles, [...]
