Some of his tracks have clocked up 20 million views alone so he is one of the most sought after names in the game. He plays exclusive solo sets on June 10th and September 2nd with King Joshua and Diego Donati and a guest to be announced, while he returns with label co-founders N'to and Joachim Paster for a dedicated Hungry Music takeover on July 15th. It is a label that was born from the chance encounter of three artists, each with their own universe, but a common taste in sound esthetic and has gone on to become one of techno's most celebrated and essential collectives. This night will offer a complete and comprehensive Hungry Music showcase so expect to be fully immersed in the trio’s fantastic, club-ready sounds, with King Joshua and Diego Donati also on. Polish duo Catz n Dogz are at the sharp end of the bass house scene with their big and playful tracks, off beat rhythms and cures sense of groove.

Last of all, another techno legend in the form of Timo Maas also lines-up on July 8th with King Joshua and Diego Donati plus a special guest. The iconic German maestro that is Maas has been driving the techno scene forward for decades with his crossover anthems but also killer underground cuts on labels like his own Rockets and Ponies plus My Favorite Robot amongst others. He is a real heavyweight who will spellbind the Eden audience with his skills in the booth. As such IDOL’s 2019 is shaping up to be one of the most essential parties of the summer season in Ibiza.
