Not yet, give it another 25 years and I might
The Ibiza that was known was killed off once open-air clubbing through the night ended. There's no getting away from that as one of the main problems. Yes, Day-clubbing is great, some of the inside nightclubs are amazingly put together now but, its just not the same and it never will be unless that law is reversed.
I did have a look at the Bicep youtube video, there is a whole number of things that are not unique to Ibiza that have gone wrong in clubland to lead us to this point but yeah, if that's the high reference point for the season then, wow, the future is bleak. I think Dirks assessment was blunt but, fair.
There is a decent video of Paradise closing as well on Youtube, maybe people are so loaded up on Ketamine that they can't move, maybe the music is shit, maybe they are too poor to afford a drink. I don't know, if you play the video with the sound off, there's no energy.
The club looks full though and so, the dismal tide there and other Ibiza clubs continues into 2023. Its not unique to Ibiza, the Camelphat video from Manchester warehouse project looked dull as dishwater to me eventhough the venue and the production look incredible.
Are the top clubs too rammed in Ibiza? I agree that they were always rammed hard during peak season, I don't think that's changed much.
