| News | The Soul Designer returns: Fabrice Lig interview Posted: 28 Jun 2008 09:28 PM CDT For the last fifteen years, Belgium's Fabrice Lig has been knocking out literally reams of quality, Detroit-inspired techno under a plethora of pseudonyms. Now he's back as Soul Designer, the most orchestrally-inclined of his guises, with new album 'Evolutionism'.

| Videos | Ibiza’s DJ Alfredo: video interview Posted: 28 Jun 2008 02:54 AM CDT Long before superstar DJs like Paul Oakenfold, Sasha and DJ Tiësto ever spun one record in Ibiza, DJ Alfredo was playing music in the island's best clubs.

| News | Ibiza’s best chill out music Posted: 27 Jun 2008 10:53 PM CDT Before Ibiza there was no 'chill out'. The island's famous beach and sunset bars such as Cafe del Mar, Cafe Mambos and Sa Trinxa pioneered blissful, charming, downtempo jazz, deep house, funk and soul long before chill out CDs became a coffee table accessory. Whilst Ibiza's nightclubs are the best in the world, its beaches, bars and sunsets are also the perfect tonic to wash away the previous night's excesses. Today Beatportal visited one of the best chill out bars in Ibiza - Sa Trinxa on Las Salinas Beach and met Andi Piper, a DJ who has spun at the bar for over 10 years alongside the legendary Jon Sa Trinxa. We grilled Andi about what he thinks is Ibiza's best chill out music in between his mixes. |
