In Session Ibiza August 2025

August on the island has a pulse of its own. This set was recorded in that space where the sun dips low and the air becomes electric, the sweet spot between introspection and ignition.

The journey opens with a nod to San Francisco’s PillowTalk and the hypnotic energy of Barber’s remix. Raw, patient, and beautifully off-center. From there, we slip into deeper territory with emerging voices like Zamky and Bjoint, who bring a tight rhythmic finesse that sets the tone. There's a strong thread of European craftsmanship throughout, with standout cuts from Spain’s Mauro Vetter and THEIA, and the refined edge of Italy’s Mirco Costa and Etwas.

Later, the mood darkens. Cristian Merino and Fer BR remind us why groove never goes out of style, and legends like Iglesias and Paco Osuna come in heavy with their unmistakable stamp on the modern underground. By the time Michael Bibi closes the session, we’re deep in that hypnotic zone where time loses meaning.

Seb_h, my Ibiza alias, is a name rooted in deep tech with an apparent reverence for the island’s pulse. This set isn’t just a reflection of what’s playing. It’s a reflection of who is shaping the scene right now. Respect to the artists who bring their own fingerprint to the dancefloor.

For those listening under the stars, in motion, or memory, this one’s yours.

About the Podcast

In Session Ibiza
Sebastiaan Hooft’s monthly deep tech show
In Session Ibiza is Sebastiaan Hooft’s monthly deep tech show, recorded on Ibiza, the island he has called home since 2024.
Each episode is built from the music he is finding and playing on the island right now: deep, warm and driving, selected to hold a room rather than to chase a chart. Much of it gets tested first on the rooftop at Tomorrowland Ibiza, where Sebastiaan is a resident DJ.
In Session Ibiza is the deeper side of his sound. The Midnight Project, his weekly show, is the techno side. Same selector, two sides of one sound.
