When line-ups change and bookers are forced to find a replacement, it's understandable that some music fans might feel deflated. Blighted by visa issues, the absence of a certain Mr Bassett has left glaring holes at various Ibiza parties this summer.
With an already stacked top-to-bottom line, arguably Glitterbox didn't need to fill the gap. Nonetheless, being the professionals that they are, its booking team felt compelled to.
On Sunday 3 September, Alan Dixon has been added to the bill at Hï Ibiza and we're made up about it! So much so, it's left us saying, "Harvey, who?"
As a producer, his output is high-quality synthy House music with '80s influence and big keys that wouldn't have sounded out of place in Studio 54. Basically, ideal for the crossover of House and Disco that Glitterbox peddles.
Anybody who is already a fan of Gerd Janson, Krystal Klear or Tensnake should definitely pay some attention. Musically, Alan Dixon is cut from a similar cloth and, indeed, is a regular contributor to Gerd's Running Back label.
Alan doesn't get many bookings on Ibiza, but we hope that this can be the catalyst for more in the future. (Of course, we'll be welcoming DJ Harvey back with open arms next summer too)
Alan Dixon lines up alongside Catz 'N Dogz, Dimitri From Paris, Folamour, Todd Terry and more, for what is set to be another thrilling night under the disco balls.
You can count on us being at the front for this one. We hope to see you there. If you'd like to join us, head below and get your ticket.
