Get ready to feel the love as German “super house” pioneers andhim, West African-born afro house luminary AMÉMÉ, and acclaimed Hamburg singer-songwriter Malou join forces for their vibrant new single, “Feel The Love,” on Insomniac Records.

We’ve been working on several ideas with Malou over the last year when she came up with the lyrics of ‘Feel The Love.’ We immediately fell in love with it and started working on it. It’s the perfect feel-good track and sets the tone for the summer season.”

“‘Feel with Love’ isn’t just a standard record – it’s a vibe. The second it drops, you can feel the energy shift. It’s one of those records that hits different, makes you move, makes you feel, and that’s exactly what music should do – connect, elevate, and make you feel something,” AMÉMÉ says.

Malou reflects on the creation of “Feel The Love“: “The song was created on a sunny day in Los Angeles! We made this one within minutes because we truly felt it! ‘Feel The Love’ isn’t just about a person, it’s about feeling the love in general! And we definitely felt the love that day.”

This summer, Solomun +1 returns to Pacha Ibiza with a fresh perspective and a meticulously curated lineup that cements its status as one of electronic music’s most consistently forward-facing residencies.

A tradition that began as a simple concept—one artist, one guest—has grown into a cultural cornerstone, setting the standard on The White Isle with its unexpected pairings, undeniable selections, and unforgettable nights on the dancefloor.

Peggy Gou returns to +1 after a multi-season break, while The Dare—rising out of New York’s fashion, art, and nightlife scenes—adds a dose of edge to an already stacked lineup.

Amnesia welcomes Boiler Room for world-first seven-date Ibiza residency

Boiler Room will host its first-ever Ibiza club residency at the iconic Amnesia, Ibiza nightclub, linking Ibiza’s culture with a global audience over seven curated dates this summer.

The spiritual home of underground clubbing on the island for almost 50 years, Amnesia has an illustrious reputation for forward-thinking music curation, hosting many subcultures and championing a broad spectrum of electronic artists, making it the perfect home for Boiler Room‘s club residency.

Landing on Thursdays throughout summer – June 12th and 19th, July 17th, 24th, and 31st, and August 14th and 28th 2025, Boiler Room will curate and host seven exclusive events, streaming live from both Amnesia‘s iconic terrace and its main room with an eclectic, hand-picked selection of talent from across the electronic music scene.

Boiler Room‘s growing presence on the White Isle has historically been through infrequent one-off events, however it was last summer’s debut with Amnesia that highlighted the club’s compatibility not only as a venue, but through a shared music policy that champions alternative talent.

Arguably a cornerstone of her Zeitgeist-infiltrating ‘Brat Summer’ campaign, Charli XCX‘s 2024 Boiler Room DJ performance at Amnesia sparked a cultural phenomenon, capturing the attention of the world’s media and setting a precedent for the club’s astute approach to music curation.

The announcement is a significant milestone for two of club culture’s most innovative institutions. For over five decades Amnesia has resonated from the heart of Ibiza out into the world, blending the island’s free spirit with the evolution of international clubbing culture. Over the years, becoming an undeniable reference point for electronic music and continually welcoming a diverse global community of clubbers.

With this summer’s residency promising to build on the energy created by last year’s cultural moment, the focus will be on showcasing incredible talent from across the broad spectrum of electronic music, amplifying both Boiler Room and Amnesia‘s shared commitment in supporting emerging artists at both the forefront and the fringes of club culture.

Since 2010, Boiler Room has grown from an intimate gathering in London to a truly global cultural curator; with over 8000 performances to date and now broadcasting to over 283 million people each month, the platform promises to connect local dancefloors with the wider world, a sentiment that will place its audience at the heart of Ibiza’s nightlife this summer, wherever in the world they tune in from.

A new residency for the island that fortifies Amnesia‘s commitment to ensuring the spotlight is on forward-facing independent talent, Boiler Room places the music firmly at the center of the conversation.
