One of the most significant groups in underground electronic music nowadays is Circoloco. Circoloco began as a Monday after-hours party in Ibiza in 1999, and since then, it has evolved into a global music brand and a way of life that sparks cross-cultural dialogue with the most creative minds in the fields of entertainment, design, and art. For 25 years, its understated style and avant-garde lineups have preserved the raw essence of its Balearic origins.
Circoloco's influence on society extends well beyond its four walls, as dance culture and the worlds of fashion and celebrity collide. It's where P Diddy fell in love with dance music before releasing his electronic record II II; where Virgil Abloh was inspired to design a capsule collection for the brand; where high society stars and household names can lose themselves on the dance floor. It's also where Ricardo Tisci first heard the Martinez Brothers before hiring them to soundtrack Givenchy shows for years. The dance floor at Circoloco has inspired partnerships with globally recognized brands like Adidas, Off-White, and most famously, Rockstar Games. This cooperation resulted in the creation of Circoloco Records, which serves as a comprehensive integration between the virtual and real-world realms of music and entertainment.
Founder Antonio Carbonaro has seen Circoloco grow from its modest beginnings as a free Monday morning party at the notorious DC-10 venue in Ibiza in the late 1990s to become one of the most significant and iconic brands in club culture through fashion, design, and recording.
The 2024 season's individual lineups will be revealed in the upcoming months, but in typical Circoloco style, guests can anticipate the unexpected. The avant-garde has regularly collaborated with Ibiza mainstays in previous seasons, with performers like Shygirl, Actress, and Romy—who infrequently perform on the island—sharing the stage with musicians like Seth Troxler, Rampa, Peggy Gou, and many others who attribute their career jumps to Circoloco.
Partygoers on the White Isle this summer can anticipate Circoloco's signature blend of unification, inclusivity, cutting edge sound, and excellent curation, with shows spanning decades taking place in New York, Miami, London, Milan, Paris, Amsterdam, Rio de Janeiro, and Phuket, to name a few.
