What about the atmosphere and the vibe? Are people really up for it?
 
I was at the opening night and in my humble opinion, this has been by far the best addition in Ibiza for many, many years. No other night has such an attention to details. As we were ordering bottles of Sake, Richie felt that he needed to come to us and talk with us for a couple of minutes (and actually gave us VIP wristbands). Even without getting this treat, he was such a nice guy in times where many DJ's don't even know where the fanbase is anymore. Musicwise, the built up was fantastic and Richie rocked the room. I'd say it was boiling in there.
So, my verdict... whatever you do, do NOT miss ENTER.

it starts really relaxed in el salon. lovely bar vibe with attention to detail as already explained. great pre-party vibe. then, by 11pm ca., as the sound picks up, the vibe gets livelier of course. last week (with richie playing) it was really busy from early on with a great vibe while last night, with francois K, it was a more relaxed atmosphere...still - todd terje's "inspector norse" went down super well.

once the pre-party has finished (00:30), el salon gets its bar vibe back and people leave to the terraza or to the discoteca. it wasn't packed last night, but i loved the vibe. and the projections on the stone wall behind the dj booth on the terraza are something else!!! 8O

quite costy, isn`t it?

no, to be honest, if you're a group of people, buying sake by the bottle is a good option. the single glass isn't too cheap. still, try the PLUM umeshu liquor and also try the sun rise cocktail, love them both!

honestly, this party has so far been the surprise of the season and i'll be there each and every thursday if i can.

do you remember price of a bottle of Sake in Space?

The prices range from around Euro 100 to Euro 300 for Junmai Daiginjo. The interesting thing is that I didn't know the brands presented by Richie before. According to this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lt7y_L_tqqc this sake has never been exported before. Nice touch.
The small jugs are around Euro 20 if memory serves right. They serve as well many Sake-based cocktails and the bartenders were (at least at the opening) Japanese.
 
55euros for a glass of sake...thankfully i dont drink booze then:D


any rumours/word on what the lineup will be for the 13th Sept? (happens to be the week im in ibiza....did hawtin say he would play every night at Enter?..would be a bit disappointed if he didnt play when we are there...i've seen him a couple times this year already so wouldn't be the end of the world, but would be nice to see him at his own night..

13th September
M-Nus Vs. .... To be revealed!

i know i've been saying good things about enter. and i don't want to annoy anyone on here. but after last night, i think i just have found a new favourite party on the island!

el salon was cool as ever with magda. the terraza (enter.kehakuma) was brilliant with tini&enzo, maya jane coles and heartthrob. and richie in the discoteca was amazing as well! loads of great music everywhere.

what i probably like most about enter is the fact that it really feels fresh and moreover so, they've paid attention to so many little details. richie is a perfect host and he's everywhere the whole night until he starts playing himself. you can have a chat with him (being behind the bar!) in el salon, then he shows up in every room before he goes to play his set. the decoration is super cool, especially in el salon, but also the visuals on the wall of la terraza are great. the night is just spot on imo.

also, yesterday night was really busy. imagine this - i was at carl cox on tuesday (which was extremely busy) and by 3am last night, enter didn't feel a lot different to cox' night anymore in terms of numbers. sure, overall it's still a tad less packed (in a good way), but this night is going to be stronger and stronger every week now. see you next thursday!!! :D
 
Nice review! I was also there last night and it is a cool party, nice vibe and varied crowd. I think Cox is still a mile better though as an overall show but after 10 years they have perfected that. Enter was busy-ish for sure, not as busy as Cream was last night, could hardly get in the club! Thursdays is defo now THE night on the island for me!!!
 
Cant wait, i was lucky enough to catch him last summer on a Carl Cox night, best DJ ive saw live, I know hes on radio 1 sometime this week at 9pm.
