Breaking the mould: Maceo Plex's Mosaic is bringing something different to Ibiza

Agents Of Time, Main Room

Having just been turned away from the VIP section because one of us was wearing shorts (schoolboy error, Dave) we head onto the main floor for Agents Of Time. Playing live on the looming turret-esque stage in the corner rather than the booth in among the crowd, a massive LED screen looks down on them along with a dancer on the level above. Surrounded by a sprawl of musical equipment, the three-piece from Bari, Italy has the audience in the palm of their hand with upbeat techno tunes and acid-infused basslines. ‘Lower World’ from their ‘Day One’ EP on the trio’s newly founded label Obscura, is a particular highlight, squelching its way into dancer’s hearts. And it’s always fun to see someone rock a TB-03.

Maceo Plex, Main Room

An early track in Maceo Plex's set and a signal as to how hard he'd be taking things on opening night, with the crowd absolutely lapping it up. Even 15 minutes into his set it's obvious how much of a rockstar he is. The Texan has complete focus of everyone, to the point that no one is in in the Prism room for much longer.
