RESISTANCE IBIZA [Sasha & Digweed] @ Privilege 2017

just spoke to them. they were pretty worried beforehand because of prydz closing happening, but they got pretty much the same numbers as the week before which is a better result as they expected.

now I think the next weeks should be good. it´s hard to predict, but a) one night less to compete against and b) end of august and september normally more grown up ravers come to the island which should result in more people coming to see S&D. I might be wrong but I do think that especially 5th september should get busy as it´s the last date of them on the island this year. don´t expect to see a packed privilege, but the main room should be busy enough. the one room that has been suffering a bit for resistance was always the vista club.
If they are happy with them numbers they must be crazy , no atmosphere, nobody buying at the bar , we went 1:30 - 4 . Not impressed at all .
Also went to together first , Jesus thought I was at a school disco ,, when mastajam ??? Played Sophie Ellis-Bextor I had to go
 
As has already been said Digweed appeals to the more mature raver, hence why I'm going 5th Sept, so glad catching his last performance at Privilege this year. First decent club night on the island for me, canny wait like

I was over there on Tuesday night - second time with a chance to go see my favourite duo B2B in Ibiza - and didn't go. Yes I was absolutely on the floor after an exhausting day but would still have gone to see them if I'd had enough confidence my mind would get blown in the perfect setting with a great crowd. It's sad they had to team up with Resistance in order to make it work, the sad fact is I was way happier seeing them play behind a muslin screen to a fixated crowd than the thought of them cramming in a 2 hour set as part of a big club night. There's no other way the event would get even the numbers it has been in Ibiza but unfortunately that's a big turn off for me and I'm a massive fan.
 
Am getting the impression its not the night I think its going to be cracked up to be

The style of music they're playing is different from what you're used to them playing on their own. It's very techno based so maybe closer to Digweeds but as a long term fan of them, it doesn't sound right. Still good tho on its own...just feel they adjusted their sound to fit in with what's popular now.
 
So Stivi or anyone else: what's the likelihood that Cox will be the special guest at the closing party? I'll be around that week, so how can I find out who it will be?

Line-ups are getting worse and worse and S&D slot getting shorter and shorter. I was thinking of going to next week when I'm on the island but having second thoughts now. Seems to be fizzling out a bit. Maybe the fact it's the closing party (for S&D) and Sasha's birthday might pick up a bit. Saw a bit of Sasha at SW4 on Saturday and he was meh....mind you the soundsystem probably didn't help (as usual)....
 
For the record Prydz was toilet at SW4 as well....just thought I'd mention that. A lot of people have been saying his residency in Ibiza has been boring....and I can confirm that if it's anything like SW4...gone right downhill IMO

Is it really that bad? Main room doesn't look bad to me, except Nathan Borato is a bit odd - but on early anyway.

yeah maybe it's just me then....the terrace is weak compared to previous line-ups...and just 2 hours for S&D....next week is a lot better to be fair, wonder how long they will get then?...

I'm so torn for next week. I really want to see Len Faki at Pacha and then S&D at Privi. My assumption was Faki would be 2-4 at Pacha and S&D would be 4-Close. But seems they are playing a lot earlier than I expected.#FirstWorldProblems

I´m not sure but think it might be dubfire closing next week and if so it would clash with len faki at pacha yeah. but ask me monday next week and I´ll be able to find out.

Hasn't it been 2hrs every week? But of a shame they aren't doing anything extended really.

Was going to go to that as I'm a big fan of Voorn too but I get sooo frustrated with the poor sound I decided against it. Guess the B2B wasnt any good then?

A big group of friends went to see S&D at Priv on the 15th and they were disappointed with their set that night.

Out of interest why? Are there some people still expecting a progressive mid 90s sound? Diggers can slam down a heavy Techno set these days. While I'm not going until next week, I'm guessing the S&D sets are pretty close to Diggers current sound...
