Ushuaia 2016

No EDM on the line up :cool:, wont boycottt Ushuaia's opening :D but they should have put some House Music such as Louie Vega, David Morales, Dj Sneak & so on...a little too much Techno /Tech House for me :rolleyes:

i was just kiddin....
Hope Richie's set wont be boring as the 2 times ive seen him for Enter aug 13 otherwise i'll leave earlier in order to have a good meal , rest & save stamina for Amnesia"s opening :lol:
 
Got me thinking now.. Is Richie playing at the opening a random one off? Or a hint to further giggs there across the summer....

I wouldn't take this as too much of a sign. sven väth played ushuaïa opening in 2013 (without it resulting in any further gigs at the venue), marco carola played the closing in 2014 (and then everyone thought 'that's it, music on will move to ushuaïa for next year' - nothing happened). they always get a big 'underground' name to play their opening and closing parties.

of course it's possible that richie might play other dates at ushuaïa this year - he's not bound contractually to any venue on the island this summer. but I for one expect him to pop up more at other places on ibiza this season really.
 
Not claiming to know much about the EDM market.... But am I the only one surprised that Hardwell is returning to Ushuaia in 2016. I'm assuming on a reduced fee after last season?

Yes I went in 14 and 15 and 15 was 100% much quieter than the previous year
 
It feels that the EDM/Big Room scene is dying incredibly fast. Ushuaia should be careful about having such an EDM heavy lineup. They felt some of that pain last year and will feel it even more this year.

I agree, while i listen to mostly techno and the tech house variety, I do try and listen to a little of everything to keep informed. It would seem to me that Deep House is still the kind of "it" sound at the moment. You have djs like Sander Van Doorn as just one example who used to play trance many years ago, who play pretty much purely big room/electro just a few years ago, now seem to be playing 80% deep house (at least from a listen to a radio show or 2 of his). It was bound to happen that the same old EDM sound would get stale, its sort of a gateway style to the overall umbrella of the electronic music. I dont know the numbers so i dont know how much Ushuaia "suffered" this year but im sure they have a "if aint broke dont fix it" approach. But Im willing to be they'll change up the roster next year if they don't draw.

However, I always thought for example Luciano's style was perfect for Ushuaia and if i remember correct the numbers didnt really agree. So i dont know what kind of tech house/underground sound would make most sense there beyond their in house Ants Party.

Your spot on there mate I have the same views as you and same music pref bar I enjoy trance to. Edm is the stepping stone for most to other genres so it still needs its place and I bet Ushuaias bank accounts are healthy off it.

As far Luciano fitting Ushuaia I agree how ever I would kill to see prydz do a long set there :eek:
