Swedish House Mafia Ibiza 2010

Perhaps the most successful new party of 2009, the Swedes return in 2010 with their new theme, The Masquerade Motel.

Not many take on Cocoon and Tiesto and survive to tell the tale, but in the first year in 2009 the Swedish House Mafia did just that. Although there was the inevitable slightly sluggish start, but by the end of the summer, there was no question that the party had worked and plans for season 2 were being firmly hatched.

Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso will again be on rotating duty throughout the summer, with at least 2 of them at every gig and quite often all three. In addition, there are a selection of interesting guests to spice matters up a bit, with Steve's brother AN21 making sure he raises his profile and other long time buddies like Kim Fai and Max Vangeli also take guest roles. Furthermore, there are also dates with Dirty South, Groove Armada, Felix da Housecat, Benny Benassi, Arno Cost and Norman Doray to complete a strong line-up.

Steve Angello

Details on 'The Masquerade Motel' aspect of the party aren't clear at the moment, but we're guessing there may be masks and the odd fancy dress outfit knocking about. Regardless, with the energy the Swedes produce behind the decks, expect Mondays at Pacha to be soon challenging Fuck Me I'm Famous for the size of the queue trying to get in.

You could not move the air was tight and there was no chance you could get to the bar ...
only a question of time till something happens @ one of these well known ridiculously
overcrowded parties/clubs ... and then some of those greedy discomafia-hustlers
will whine ...

We went to this night and i would recommend people who want to enjoy there night out avoid this night. Far to many people were let in and in my opinion it was far to dangerous. You could not move the air was tight and there was no chance you could get to the bar for a drink. We stayed in Pacha for an hour after paying 45euro to get in. When elaving the club we spoke to other who expressed they also feared for their safety within in the club. I would save you money and go to a different club this night :)

We were at the Kylie night as well and like people have said it was dangerously packed!

We got there at 3 and tried to get on the dancefloor.....haha what a stupid idea that was! This night was crazy busy so i'd hate to see what FMIF is like.

We had a rather fun ride home in an illegal taxi too, being pulled over by the police but miraculously being allowed on our way after the driver convinced them we were his cousins and passing a breath test haha

Couldnt agree more. At least they(shm) can DJ though. Is Axwell minted do we think?

i was there too... we got there early to get a good spot. After she had sung, we headed to the roof terrace to relax n dance a bit. Downstairs was insane, couldnt dance or get to the bar.
At about 4.30-5am (not entirely sure) we headed back down, and the place was just right... room to dance, but still a great atmosphere.
I like SHM, but I think its getting to the point where its going to become like FMIF. So Im glad Ive seen them at Pacha, but probably wont be going again.

was crazy busy on the kylie night. we hit the funky lounge until she was done and place had calmed down.

sitting on the rooftop terrace and we watched as about 1000 people bailed out after kylie finished! she's cool and you still would but cant believe so many people went just to see her and then f**ked off immediately after.

...
**** - i´m afraid you´re right ;)
so she didn´t say "it be more cool" (like i understood) - but "i´d be more cool"
thought she was underwhelmed walking in @ daylight
because then it looks quite crappy and seedy :lol:

@ neilly haha It would seem so but personally I think she was on about pacha's aura and famousness but blah
