In Session Ibiza March 2025

Hola!

The sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in deep orange and soft pink as the first beats of the night begin to echo across Ibiza. March is a special time on the island. The streets are still quiet, the beaches are mostly untouched, but the air is charged with the promise of summer. The energy is shifting, the first arrivals are here, and the music never stops—it simply transforms. In Session Ibiza – March 2025 captures the transition from winter's calm into the vibrant pulse of the season ahead.

This five-hour journey is born from the island itself. It's more than a mix—it reflects Ibiza's evolving rhythm. As the show unfolds, it mirrors the island's flow, from deep, hypnotic beats that echo through the quiet streets of the Old Town to uplifting energy that builds on the terraces of beach clubs preparing to open their doors.

The journey begins with the deep, melodic sounds of Andre Rizo, Noir, and S. Salter, setting the foundation like the first warm breezes of spring. Their tracks drift over the landscape, creating an atmosphere of effortless groove, the kind you hear in the background of a quiet drink at a hidden bar, where conversations are filled with plans for the season ahead.

As the night deepens, the show moves into the island's heartbeat. Kelis, Return To Saturn, and Tamir Regev introduce a more vibrant energy, their sounds pulsing like the anticipation in the air as Ibiza's legendary venues start testing their sound systems again. Cedric Salander and Ariel R bring in hypnotic rhythms, transporting you to the beach clubs where the first sunset gatherings of the year take place, a mix of locals and early travelers swaying to the music, knowing they are witnessing the beginning of something special.

The journey intensifies with Momo Khani, Cafe De Anatolia, and Arco, blending organic and electronic textures—music that feels at home in a laid-back daytime set and in the late-night hours when the stars seem closer than ever. This is the sound of Ibiza preparing itself, excitement bubbling beneath the surface.

As the set progresses, the energy builds, moving through the hypnotic beats of Ron Carroll, Yves Murasca, and Darin Epsilon, blending house, deep grooves, and progressive touches. By now, the island is alive—the energy is unmistakable. The legendary artists return, their music rippling through the air like waves on a moonlit sea. Sebastien Leger, Green George, Andhim, and Eelke Kleijn take the soundscape into deeper, more driving territory, the kind of music that fuels late-night sessions in intimate clubs, where the real magic of Ibiza happens.

The tempo shifts again as the final hour approaches, climbing towards the night's peak. Robyn Balliet, Archie B, and Karretero bring in sounds that would be at home in the peak moments of a sunrise set, when the dancefloors of the island are at their purest—where people lose themselves in the music, where time stands still, where nothing else exists except the beat and the moment.

This is Ibiza in March—a season on the edge of change, a place where music is not just played but felt. Session Ibiza—March 2025 is a journey through this energy, a five-hour story of rhythm, anticipation, and the endless pulse of the island.
