In Session Ibiza May 2026

Friday May 8 is the first night of my bi-weekly residency at the Tomorrowland Store Ibiza, twelve dates across the season, opening to closing, on the rooftop next to Ushuaïa and Hï. This mix is what's been running through the studio in the build-up.

It opens with Dennis Cruz's Cookies on Lemon-aid and moves into a CamelPhat remix of Bobby Nourmand, Motip White, and ACUA. Paco Osuna takes the third slot with his rework of Carlos Fauvrelle and Victor Calderone on Stereo Productions, exactly the sound I've been chasing all winter.

The middle runs Ryan Grey, Justin Ley, AUGIS with Emilia Ali, and a Kellerkind cut on Stil vor Talent. TOYZZ drops This Beat on Truesoul, Chris Avantgarde brings Concrete Professional on Hyperreal, PAGANO with the James Hurr dub turns the temperature up, and Josh Wink lines up alongside Size 9 and Marco Faraone on Factory 93.

The final stretch, Josh Samuel, PENTHOUSE, and Joseph Capriati closing on Global Underground with Psychic Journey, is exactly the kind of finish I want to be playing on the rooftop come Friday. This is what May sounds like to me on the island. Driving, deep, built to hold a room.

I've spent twenty years touring across Europe and the past few in Ibiza, working out what this sound becomes when you actually live with it.

In Session Ibiza is monthly. The Midnight Project runs weekly on DI.FM with sixty thousand listeners. The Rooftop Sessions are every other Friday from May 8 through the summer. If you're on the island, come up to the rooftop. If you're not, this is the closest you'll get to being there.

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.
