This Wednesday, party regulars and Berlin beat matchers Pan-Pot will show us how it's done in the main room. Tassilo Ippenberger and Thomas Benedix, AKA Pan-Pot take advantage of their differences to create something totally unique so you can always count on every performance being extra special.


Axwell & Ingrosso / Axwell Ingrosso at Ushuaia / Wednesday 17 August

If techno doesn't tickle your pickle but EDM is right up your street, Ushuaïa is the place to be this Wednesday. For anyone who doesn't know, Axwell and Sebastian Ingrosso are what's left from the legendary group Swedish House Mafia, and they're continuing that legacy at the island's favourite outdoor venue, Ushuaïa. The pair will single-handedly take you to another planet, with visuals too complex to comprehend and synth sounds so sharp they could knock down one of the many planes that fly above the crowd.

Leftwing & Kody / Solid Grooves at Privilege / Thursday 18 August

Stay until the end and you'll catch the sun rays as they rise over the horizon - something we never get bored of. Leftwing & Kody set an example for musical duos - known for their working chemistry and releasing an impressive amount of tracks, it's no surprise they were nominated for 'Best Breakthrough DJ' by Mixmag.

Set to feature are label mainstays, Kollektiv Turmstrasse, and while any live set is golden, a live set by Hamburg/Berlin duo Christian Hilscher and Nico Plageman always take the house and techno combination to the next level. With a celebration on the cards, it's only right to get your party pants on and make Solomun and the crew proud.


99 Souls / Judgement at Eden / Friday 19 August

Whether you're a fan of the more commercial side of dance music or not, everyone has to agree that there's nothing more enjoyable than a sing song. 99 Souls are one to watch after their huge mash-up of Destiny's Child's 'Girl' and Brandy and Monica's 'The Boy Is Mine' to make 'The Girl is Mine' - a tune that went on to become the standout track of summer 2015. 99 Souls grace Judgement with happy house and tons of material for your memory bank, and Judge Jules joins the boys for extra tunage, so be sure to drop in.


Santé & Sidney Charles / Warriors at Sankeys / Sunday 21 August

It's time to get tribal and whip on your head dresses for Warriors, a party that has fled its grounds in Manchester and spread across to Ibiza, where it's made waves as one of Sunday's most popular fiestas. Sidney Charles has been climbing the ladder of creativity recently, mixing up his sound by dipping his toes into techno. Santé and Sidney resemble brothers in the booth, and this week they'll take over the Lab along with Detlef to shake the floor of Sankeys. Huge things are expected from the pair in the next few years, so catch them while they're at their prime to up your hipster game in years to come.
