With the behemoth that is Space turning 22 this year, We Love has a lot of history to thrive on. They have not forgotten their past, they deliver in the present and work towards setting the standard for the future, and in turn represents this through their diverse programming across the various stages in the club throughout the season, catering for all whether your stomping about the place in La Terraza, La Discoteca, early on on the Sunset Terrace, El Salon, Premier Etage, or in the Red Box above La Discoteca.
So, why do we love ‘We Love' we hear you ask? Well, as confusing a sentence as that is, we shall endeavor to answer this very question.
The value of history at a club should never be underestimated. Whilst a club of the future cannot simply rest on the foundations laid down in parties of years gone by and expect everything to be a success, it is of course a distinct advantage. The profile of Space's 22 year and We Love/Home's 12 year histories combine together to create a form of synergy that could be considered lacking from many parties around the world. People come to ‘We Love' at Space having heard or experienced great things, with the people behind ‘We Love' seeing it as their priority to ensure we all leave having witnessed something special. Something they achieve week after week!
The diverse and eclectic music policy of ‘We Love' is a big draw, with the lineups providing something for everyone. So taking you through them, here are some of the highlights…
We have a strong techno vibe throughout many of the parties, starting with Carl Craig bringing his 20 Years Of Planet E show to the Discoteca on the opening night with Derrick May as support amongst others. Then at the complete opposite end of the spectrum you have the party liaison for the disco and funk massive; Greg Wilson, who shall no doubt be taking us back to the old school with his famed tape decks.
For the June 19th party Canadian Claude Von Stroke heads on back after some great feedback from the 2010 season, and Space favourites Groove Armada are back for another season ready to rock the Terraza once again, and 5 more times too!
As Canada continues to provide, Caribou will be making a special appearance on the 26th June, so expect wonderful things including the hit ‘Sun', amongst many others. And the treats just keep on comin'. The lovely man that is Joris Voorn will be gracing us with his presence across 6 dates, the first being with Caribou.
For July, you get many of the artists named above for second helpings, AND the boys from Innerversions will be making a much welcomed appearance on the 24th bringing the likes of Ame, Dixon and Henrik Schwarz to the party.
So, as we look towards August and peak season, the 7th is a date which stands out with James Zabiela celebrating his birthday at the club. Cake included, but we suspect his wish has already come true with him playing 7 times over the course of the season, including one particular interesting party on August 21st with SLAM as they celebrate a monster 20 years of SOMA Records.
We Love... Space, Sunday September 26th 2010 - The Closing Fiesta from We Love on Vimeo.
September brings presents in the form of that French maestro Laurent Garnier, who will be jetting in on the 4th, and word on the street is he's bringing his mates to perform live as L.B.S. Finally, hero of last year's closing party, Aphex Twin, returns on the 25th September for this years closing to try in some way to impress further, we wish them luck! The closing will of course be massive, and as lineups go, it's a monster.
So, if you bring together the history, the venue with is amazing sound system and the calibre of people who absorb its sounds, it shows that ‘We Love' is not simply one of the parties at Space, but the party. It is this diversity that epitomizes all that the party, the club and island is about; an eclectic music policy, friendliness as standard, and of upmost importance; having fun!
