Si tuvieras que definir la atmósfera de los lunes en Amnesia en tres palabras…
“High fucking energy.” Si algo define a KETTAMA, el otro protagonista de la residencia de Amnesia Presents los lunes, es su capacidad para fusionar la nostalgia del rave old-school con la energía más moderna de la escena electrónica. Su sonido de hard house es un asalto directo a la pista de baile, y este verano lo llevará a su máxima expresión en Amnesia. Para él, esta residencia es un hito personal y profesional: “Tener una residencia en Amnesia es surrealista; es un club legen- dario. Honestamente, cada vez que toco en Ibiza la paso increíble, así que tener la oportunidad de hacerlo regularmente es emocio- nante. El club tiene una historia musical muy fuerte y quiero ex- plorar eso mientras creo mi propia experiencia”, comenta el DJ de Galway. “Amnesia es uno de esos clubs con los que sueñas tocar. He visto momentos icónicos suceder aquí a lo largo de los años, y ahora ser parte de eso es una locura. Es un hito en mi carrera.”
En los últimos años, tu carrera ha despegado a una velocidad ver- tiginosa. ¿Te ves manteniendo ese ritmo durante, no sé…20 años más?
“Ha sido un no parar. Mientras la música me siga emocionando y la gente siga conectando con ella, seguiré adelante.” Tu sonido se basa en el house pero, cada vez más y más, vas explo- rado su lado más contundente:
“EL HOUSE ES LA BASE, SIN DUDA, PERO HOY EN DÍA LAS LÍNEAS ENTRE GÉNEROS ESTÁN MUY DESDIBUJADAS Y SOBRE TODO SE TRATA DE PINCHAR LO QUE REALMENTE TE APASIONA.”
Amnesia Presents se caracteriza por su energía rave sin conce- siones. ¿Sientes que en Ibiza puede llevar su sonido al extremo, o necesitas adaptarte un poco?
“Creo que todo depende de la noche. Nunca sabes qué esperar y esa es la belleza de esto.”
If you had to define the Amnesia Mondays atmosphere in three words…
“High fucking energy.” If there’s one thing that defines KETTAMA, the other leading for- ce behind Amnesia Presents Mondays, it’s his ability to fuse old- school rave nostalgia with the cutting-edge energy of modern electronic music. His hard house sound is a full-throttle assault on the dancefloor, and this summer, he’s set to take it to its absolute peak at Amnesia. For him, this residency is a milestone both perso- nally and professionally: “Having a residency at Amnesia is surreal—it’s a legendary club. Honestly, every time I play in Ibiza, I have an amazing time, so ge- tting to do it regularly is exciting. The club has such a rich musical history, and I want to tap into that while creating my own experien- ce,” says the Galway-born DJ. “Amnesia is one of those clubs you dream of playing. I’ve seen iconic moments happen here over the years, and now, being part of that is crazy. It’s a huge milestone in my career.”
In recent years, your career has skyrocketed at an insane pace. Do you see yourself keeping up that rhythm for, say… another 20 years?
“It’s been non-stop. As long as music keeps exciting me and people keep connecting with it, I’ll keep going.” Your sound is rooted in house, but more and more, you’re pushing into heavier territory:
“HOUSE IS THE FOUNDATION, NO DOUBT, BUT NOWADAYS, THE LINES BETWEEN GENRES ARE SO BLURRED. IT’S ALL ABOUT PLAYING WHAT TRULY EXCITES YOU.”
“HOUSE IS THE FOUNDATION, NO DOUBT, BUT NOWADAYS, THE LINES BETWEEN GENRES ARE SO BLURRED. IT’S ALL ABOUT PLAYING WHAT TRULY EXCITES YOU.”
Amnesia Presents is known for its relentless rave energy. Do you feel like Ibiza lets you take your sound to the extreme, or do you have to adapt a little?
“I think it all depends on the night. You never know what to expect, and that’s the beauty of it.”
