Business as usual: In its 18th season, Cocoon Ibiza shows no sign of slowing down
18 years in and Sven's rave is still at the top of its game
5 DJ Sneak 'You Can't Hide From Your Bud'
DJ Koze, Terrace
Think what you like about DJ Sneak's attitude towards certain things, but there's no denying his ability to craft a fine production. Koze's been on fire all night, but this has to be the standout. Feisty bass kicks bang from the off and raspy percussion and funky horns soon come into play, causing arms all across the dancefloor to be swinging over heads. It's a track bursting with energy and one perfect for a middle-of-the-night pick-me-up. File under: vintage banger.
6 Radio Slave 'Feel The Same'
DJ Koze, Terrace
"Feel the same thing, yes I do..." goes the vocal over and over on this. We're not entirely sure what it relates to, but we're pretty certain it's good and that's exactly what we're feeling now. Green lights swirl through the room as the playful synth jabs reverberate and percussion claps at machine-gun pace. Radio Slave has produced one helluva trippy and hypnotic swinger and DJ Koze uses it at a prime time, the last 30 minutes of his set, to give us all a supercharged workout.
