Dancefair Explained:
Dancefair is a must for every self-respecting, ambitious dance music artist. A group of industry specialists gather on a spectacular open-air location in Ibiza’s former zoo, Benimusa Park, to teach aspiring talent what it takes to be successful. The Wednesday program focuses on the underground sounds of techno, deephouse, house, and drum&bass whilst Thursday concentrates on commercial sounds like EDM, electro, trance and progressive.
Founder Norman Soares: “Our objective is to help reach the goals of every up and coming DJ and Producer of the world. With English being the first language, we will be providing key workshops and seminars in Spanish too as not only are we in Ibiza but there is a lot of great new artists in Spain who are seeking for information and hands-on knowledge on music production and taking their first steps in the industry.
Education
With established record labels giving feedback, famous producers discussing different techniques, seminars and workshops hosted by educational platforms and mentors with leading manufacturers showcasing the latest gear, there’s something to learn in every corner of ‘The Fair’.
Furthermore, media specialists talk about essential career elements like promotion and online presence. Dancefair also recognises the importance of a structured lifestyle, with seminars on time management, and advice on efficient integration of music in everyday life
Demo Drop
The best way to get music across remains a widely respected record label. That’s why over 40 of the industry’s strongest imprints are attending Dancefair Ibiza’s Demo Drop. They give constructive feedback, answer questions, and of course look for quality music. During the 2012 and 2013 editions, a total of 95 tracks were signed.
Manufacturer attendance
Dance music is driven by technological innovation. That is why manufacturers of all currently relevant software, hardware, and other technological goodies set up shop at Dancefair Ibiza. Product demonstrations are aimed at both the curious home studio owner looking to take the next step, and the professional who wants to learn more about a specific compressor or equalizer.
Tickets are €35,- for one day/€50,- euros for a weekender that gives you access to all workshops, panels and performances and can be purchased at: http://www.dancefair-ibiza.com
