Rooted in History. Built for the Future.

Adriatic Sound Festival was born in Fano, the ancient Roman port where Julius Caesar once walked. The festival’s vision is to create a timeless cultural experience that respects the city’s heritage while pushing forward into the future of music, design, and immersive environments.

In collaboration with Stufish Entertainment Architects, the visionaries behind stage designs for Sabrina Carpenter, Beyoncé, The Rolling Stones, Lana Del Rey and Chappell Roan, the festival has transformed the airport grounds into a monumental festival city.

The architectural concept blends classical Roman influences with futuristic aviation aesthetics, creating a striking contrast between ancient legacy and modern production.

The Temple & The Hangar: A City of Sound

At the heart of the festival stands The Temple, the main stage inspired by the Arch of Augustus — one of Fano’s most iconic historical landmarks. Designed as both a stage and a monument, it reflects the festival’s philosophy of honoring the past while celebrating the future.

Complementing it is The Hangar, the festival’s second stage, where industrial energy meets underground culture. Together, these spaces create a fully immersive environment where music, architecture, light design, and heritage merge into a single experience.

A New European Destination Festival

With its coastal Italian setting, world-class stage production, and carefully curated lineup of global tastemakers, Adriatic Sound Festival is quickly becoming a must-attend destination for fans of techno, house, and cutting-edge electronic music.

More than just a festival, Adriatic Sound Festival is a meeting point between eras — a place where ancient Rome meets the future of sound.

The inaugural edition of the festival drew more than 25,000 visitors from across the world to the ancient town of Fano and featured some of the biggest names in electronic music, including RÜFÜS DU SOL, Stella Bossi, Richie Hawtin, Nicole Moudaber, Sven Väth, Sama’ Abdulhadi, Solardo, Stephan Bodzin, Kasia and many more.

Max Styler Releases New Track “One More” ft. Ad-Apt

Max Styler returns to his newly launched imprint Nu Moda with “One More,” a restless, vocal-led club record, featuring hotly-tipped rapper and vocalist, Ad-Apt, built for nights that refuse to wind down.

The single marks Max Styler’s sophomore release on his imprint and sharpens his position at the forefront of indie dance and electro-laced tech house, where groove, attitude, and late-night tension collide with precision intent.

Featuring the sharp lyrical presence of UK MC Ad-Apt, “One More” thrives on momentum. His ratatat rhythmic cadence darts across the beat with a mischievous urgency, delivering hook-heavy lines about keeping the party alive as serrated sawtooth synths ripple over crisp drum programming and rave-ready hoover stabs.

It’s lean, playful, and propulsive—a track engineered for that suspended moment when the bass is still hitting, the lights stay low, and no one’s ready to leave.

“​​‘One More’ is a late-night anthem,” says Styler on the hedonistic energy fueling his new single, “We’ve all felt what the lyrics describe: the music is thumping, you’re in a state of flow and the night is never over.”

Max Styler One More
Max Styler – One More ft Ad-Apt

“‘One More’ is about that exact moment when the lights are still low, the bass is still hitting, and nobody’s ready to go home yet,” adds Ad-Apt. “There’s always time for one more.”

With “One More,” Max Styler and Ad-Apt bottle the electricity of after-hours culture into a single, unfiltered statement. Rather than chasing the drop, it’s a record that rides the groove, extends the moment, and lives by a simple rule: there’s always time for one more.

Bedouin return to Ibiza for the 8th year of their iconic residency SAGA

Bedouin return to Ibiza for the 8th year of their iconic residency SAGA, opening a powerful new chapter at Chinois Ibiza. Running every Sunday from June 21st through October 4th, SAGA returns following a standout summer that saw the duo reach new creative heights.

SAGA continues its evolution at Chinois since its inception in 2017, which continues to remain in Ibiza’s cultural fabric. The historic venue is based in the nomadic-spirited club in the heart of Ibiza’s Marina, located inside the Ibiza Gran Hotel.

Bedouin and Chinois are united by a commitment to diversity, connection, and community, delivered through immersive sound, sensual visuals, and a deeply human dancefloor experience.

Fresh off winning the 2025 Vicious Awards for Best House Party in Ibiza, Bedouin’s SAGA stands as one of the island’s most revered and enduring residencies. Their celebrated SAGA Ibiza season in 2025 went from strength to strength all season, reinforcing the project’s reputation as a global gathering point for music lovers from every corner of the world.

Bedouin Ibiza 2026

The 2026 SAGA theme, Garden of Illusions, resembles not only as a party series, but as a living mythology that unfolds over the course of a season. A garden traditionally represents growth, harmony, and paradise, yet illusion introduces instability where things are not as they seem.

In this space, Bedouin invites the audience into dreamlike worlds where reality bends and time dissolves. This mirrors their musical language: house rhythms grounded in ancient Middle Eastern and North African influences, yet reshaped through modern electronic expression.

Here’s what Bedouin had to say about the residency:

“Coming to Chinois for our eighth year of SAGA in Ibiza feels like returning to a home that’s constantly evolving. There’s a deep connection on that dancefloor, and every night becomes its own journey with the island, the people, and most importantly, the music. We can’t wait to see you on the dancefloor this summer to write the next chapter of SAGA together.” 

Each Sunday night, SAGA opens a portal to a transcendent experience, led by Bedouin’s signature blend of deep, melodic house and world music. Guest acts for the 2026 season will soon be announced, continuing SAGA’s tradition of carefully curated lineups.

In previous years, the residency has welcomed the likes of artists such as; Damian Lazarus, DJ Tennis, Seth Troxler, Desiree, Jan Blomqvist, Jimi Jules, Joseph Capriati, Mano Le Tough, Nandu, WhoMadeWho, and many more.

With a reputation as one of the most sought-after acts in the underground scene, Bedouin, aka Tamer Malki and Rami Abousabe weave diverse influences drawn from their global upbringing into a sound that transcends borders.

SAGA is their living, breathing expression of that philosophy: a journey through cultures, rhythms, and emotions, told through music, performance and expansive visuals.

Building on an award-winning 2025 and the momentum of seven landmark seasons, SAGA’s 8th year stands as its most ambitious yet. With an elevated production, carefully curated lineups, and a renewed creative vision, Bedouin’s flagship residency returns bigger and bolder — reaffirming its place at the heart of Ibiza’s underground legacy.

dj tennis

fabric Records releases the next installment of its prestigious mix compilation series, fabric presents DJ Tennis. The new mix/compilation showcases his diligent curation skills and features two original tracks, including the brand new “Hello Hello”, out now.

Here’s what DJ Tennis had to say:

“Fabric has always been a place where I shaped my taste—getting lost in the middle of the dancefloor, learning to really listen. This mix reflects how I approach music today: psychedelia, sound design, and groove shaped by early rave culture and an experimental, DIY background, beyond genres or formulas.

Every track is something I would genuinely play in Room 1, and the cover of the mix says the same thing: a brain on a plate, memory, influence, and process, exposed.”

Deer Jade debuts on Cercle Records with “Coming Home”

Deer Jade

Deer Jade makes her debut on Cercle Records with “Coming Home”, a single that captures a sense of freedom: joyful and full of hope. Driven by an everlasting groove and colorful energy, this Indie Dance track offers a feeling of pure oneness where smiles ripple through the crowd. 

Coming Home” stays deeply rooted to Deer Jade’s sonic language: organic, flowing, and guided by emotion as much as by groove.

Few tracks connect so directly with our emotions and this release is one of them. “Coming Home” is more than a club track – it carries an effortless sense of happiness, and a playful, carefree freedom right from the melody unfolds.

Here’s what Deer Jade had to say:

“Coming home is a feel-good, groove-driven track bursting with colour and movement. Bouncy rhythms and bright textures give it a playful energy that feels like being a kid again; carefree, curious, and free from worries, where every moment is light, fun, and full of possibility“ 

A key figure on the international scene in recent years, Deer Jade has established herself as a DJ and producer with a distinctive uplifting sound. With this new release, she further asserts her artistic identity.

The track has earned strong support from industry heavyweights such as Adriatique and CamelPhat, with additional backing from Adam Ten, Mita Gami and Notre Dame.

GORDO and Reinier Zonneveld join forces for “Loco Loco”

GORDO Reinier Zonneveld
GORDO x Reinier Zonneveld

Talking about the summer track of 2026 in February might sound a little “loco” – but not when a song like this drops. “Loco Loco”, the new collaboration between GORDO and Reinier Zonneveld, lands now, and it doesn’t just arrive – it erupts. A track so tight, so energetic, and irresistibly catchy that it makes you half “loco” before the first beat even hits the club floor.

Behind it are two forces that shape electronic music in very different, but equally powerful ways. GORDO – formerly Carnage, now a Tech-House heavyweight and global club influence – joins forces with Reinier Zonneveld, Dutch techno live-set legend and founder of Filth on Acid, who is no stranger to creating chart-leaning, crossover records that bridge techno’s legacy with future-facing sound design. Together, they’ve created more than just a track – it’s a global statement.

The told story behind “Loco Loco” is as wild as the track itself. GORDO found an unknown ID in his inbox, started playing it in his live sets, and immediately he saw the crowd go crazy.

GORDO Reinier Zonneveld -Loco Loco

The track exploded on social media, with well over ten thousand Instagram Reels, countless TikTok creations using the sound, and major DJs such as Adriatique, Mind Against, Hugel, Seth Troxler, Stephen Jolk, Vintage Culture, MEDUZA & WhoMadeWho spinning it worldwide – all before anyone knew who produced it.

It soon turned out that the mysterious banger had been sent by none other than Reinier Zonneveld himself. This accidental collaboration sparked the Loco Loco frenzy, spreading organically through dance videos and club floors alike.

GORDO and Reinier Zonneveld finally solved the mystery at the end of January, officially announcing their collab. The collaboration itself has been years in the making. “Loco Loco” originated from ideas Reinier began sketching years ago, writing and producing the lyrics before sharing them with GORDO. This early exchange evolved into a creative partnership driven by constant back-and-forth energy.

Sonically, “Loco Loco” is a high-voltage hybrid: GORDO‘s House grooves meet Zonneveld‘s relentless drive and passion for good music in every kind of genre. Sparkling synths collide with pounding drums, laced with an 80s synth-pop vibe that pushes the club energy straight to the main stage. The vocals shift between Spanish verses and an English chorus (“I want you, yea-ah.”) – simple yet highly effective. It’s mad addictive, too!

Alongside his underground dominance, Reinier has repeatedly proven his ability to craft commercially leaning, chart-topping records without compromising artistic integrity – with records such as ‘Things We Might Have Said‘ with Cari Golden, that achieved a BBC Radio 1 Essential New Tune and is a long-standing favorite for Pete Tong. The single was also the most popular track on Beatport in 2016, staying over a month on the #1 spot in the Top 100.

The momentum won’t stop at the release, either. The 2026 festival season promises plenty of opportunities to catch it in action. Are you ready to get loco loco?

GORDO x Reinier Zonneveld‘s “Loco Loco” is now available everywhere via Warner Music Central Europe / Spinnin’ Records / Adore Music.

Grabbitz Launches New Era With “Blood On My Hands”

After a bold artistic reset and full creative reintroduction, Grabbitz launches his next era with “Blood On My Hands,” a raw, bass-driven single out now via Breakaway Projects/Sony.

Marking his first release following a complete visual and sonic reboot, “Blood On My Hands” signals a decisive return to the sound that originally built Grabbitz’s reputation as one of bass music’s most technically gifted producers.

After several years exploring vocal-forward and rock-influenced territory (which yielded an alternative radio hit and Canadian Gold single), the new record re-centers the project around heavy low-end, intricate sound design, and emotionally charged production.

The release follows a dramatic rebrand at the top of 2026: a wiped social presence, new visual identity, and symbolic haircut representing a full-circle moment for the producer who’s historically collaborated with heavyweights like Zedd, deadmau5, and Illenium.

Grabbitz Blood On My Hands
Grabbitz – Blood On My Hands

“A decade ago there was a moment where bass music inspired me so profoundly that I dropped everything to chase it,” Grabbitz says.

“Now, after all the places it has taken me, that moment happened again. Also, the song feels like a Jackson Pollock painting.”

Sonically, “Blood On My Hands” balances chaos and control, distorted bass textures, fractured rhythms, and cinematic tension collide in a track that feels both visceral and meticulously constructed. It’s a statement piece: not a crossover, not a feature vehicle, but a producer’s record built to announce exactly where Grabbitz is headed next.

The single arrives as Grabbitz enters a high-momentum stretch of live dates, including performances with Excision and Said The Sky, Riot Games’ Los Angeles event, and major festival appearances throughout the new year. More releases tied to the new era are expected in the coming months.

With “Blood On My Hands,” Grabbitz doesn’t just release a new song, he reclaims a legacy.
