In addition to the mix CD, 2012 will mark a decade of Ibiza residencies for the Defected label and a landmark 8th season at the mighty Pacha. Kicking off with the Opening Party on Saturday 26th May with Bob Sinclar, The Shapeshifters and Simon Dunmore himself, the season takes in an extended 16 weeks of parties with an impressive breadth of house talent from around the world. Already confirmed are Dennis Ferrer, Junior Jack & Kid Crème, Solomun, MURK, Inner City and Dimitri from Paris and there are still a number of very special guests who will be revealed at a later date.

“Our line-ups are the most musically diverse on Ibiza and the 2012 season reflects the full diversity of house music, our releases and our sound” says Dunmore. “We are loyal to our residents but we like to invigorate each season by introducing new and exciting talent to keep the line-ups fresh and ultimately shake things up a little.”
