IMS Speaker David Guetta states:
“I’ve heard nothing but amazing reports about the International Music Summit, and I’ve even brought our own **** Me I’m Famous launch party forward to co-incide with this great electronic music gathering. It’s been an incredible year for me, so it’s nice to come back to Ibiza where so much of this all began for me. I’m looking forward to debating what happens next to this incredible music culture we’ve all helped shape in the last 20 years.”

IMS will also hear from legendary producer Robin Millar, responsible for 44 number one hits, who will talk about why just one month after he retired from production duties, electronic music has re-inspired him, and see the return of 19-year old teen promoter Callum Negus Fancey from Let’s Go Crazy after stealing the show last year by stating “Who is Paul Oakenfold? My audience has never heard of him.” In addition, IMS hasteamed up with leading consumer portal Resident Advisor, whose audience will select a topic and speakers for the Presidential Debate format, which debuted in 2009 to great acclaim.


Ben Turner, a founder and partner in the IMS, states: “IMS was never about the artists, more the people behind the curtain who help guide the gifted. In 2010, we’ve been overwhelmed by approaches from artists to be involved in some way. It’s a great testament to our first two years. Watch out for more special names to follow…”

Following 2009’s successful experiment The IMS Vote will return, a session where the audience make decisions on the future of the genre. Indeed, last year, 69% of those present agreed that IMS had ‘made them question how their companies work’. In 2010, this is taken one step further then Ted Cohen from TAG Strategic will moderate a one-hour session where the delegates are the audience, and the agenda is not set. Cohen himself was so inspired by IMS:09 that he invited last year’s Key Note speaker Richie Hawtin to attend MidemNet after hearing his radical assessment of future music.


Finally reprising his 2009 role, electronic pioneer Tom Middleton will blog to the Beatport community what is being debated, who will in turn feedback and pose questions to the speakers.


Once again the IMS Grand Finale will take place at the UNESCO World Heritage Site in Dalt Vila on Friday May 28. Last year, Basement Jaxx headlined with Pete Tong, Rob da Bank and Filthy Dukes in support. IMS has been inundated with requests from artists to perform at this landmark event. The headline acts will be announced imminently. The event is free to attend for all delegates of the IMS, with some 2,000 tickets available to the public. Tickets are available now from www.internationalmusicsummit.com.

Right, can anyone tell me what the deal is with this IMS thing? Are the events all-ticket affairs? I've never been that interested to be honest as it sounds like a massive back-slapping exercise with all the usual suspects. However, I understand that Alfredo, Phil Mison and Jon Sa Trinxa are all playing down at the Blue Marlin on the last day which sounds ace, and I just happen to be in Ibiza on that day.

Can you just turn up? Do you have to 'network' when you get there? Do you have to have a nose-up in the toilets with an A&R man from Defected?
