Pocomucho Daily — Wednesday 5 August 2026

Wednesday, August 5th, 2026. I'm your host Ben DMZ. From Ibiza, this is Pocomucho Daily. Tonight in Ibiza is stacked — we'll get to that — but first, the news. Resident Advisor has confirmed the lineup for the London leg of its RA25 world tour. The ten-date global run kicks off at Outernet on September 25th, coinciding with AVA London 2026. Mala and AliA will play DJ sets, while Blawan and Bitter Babe bring live performances — with Bitter Babe premiering a specially commissioned AV show backed by the British Council. Resident Advisor has also taken a deep dive into Amelie Lens' EXHALE platform, tracing its journey from no-frills Belgian parties a decade ago into a full-scale global ecosystem — now spanning a label, an events arm, and a community built around supporting and shaping techno's next generation. Also in the spotlight this week — BIIANCO. The artist has been one of electronic music's harder-to-ignore stories over recent years, with infectious tracks, high-energy sets and a string of viral moments. A new feature looks at the full arc of their journey — a lifetime in music, from solo work to bands, before evolving into the sound that's been turning heads. Over in Berlin — ELSE is celebrating its 13th birthday, and Heisss founder and booker Timm Mühlenberg has been reflecting on the venue's evolution. What began as an extension of Renate, he says, has grown into a place with its own distinct identity. Among the changes being made this year: several initiatives aimed at making the dancefloor more accessible to shy dancers. Also out of Berlin, Diáne Zillmer has been discussing the Miller-Zillmer Foundation's exhibition "Island of Time" at Silent Green. Across five questions, she introduces the foundation's work — which ranges from supporting indigenous art to synthesizer preservation. Her framing: music is both a witness to its time and an archive of it. Across to the US, where LED Presents has announced Temper — a brand-new electronic music event coming to Petco Park in San Diego on December 30th. The inaugural edition promises three stages spanning club, experimental and techno, positioning itself as a forward-thinking way to close out the year. Independent house label Sampled Detroit is back. Founder Chuck Daniels has relaunched the imprint with a curated collection of six of his most celebrated remixes, including a newly remastered version of his acclaimed rework of Andy Toth and Billy Love's "Thrillseekers." Good to have it back. Solomun has released a long-form film documenting his sold-out shows at London's Alexandra Palace, which took place on February 6th and 7th this year. The film premiered on his official YouTube channel on July 23rd — a proper document of what by all accounts were two significant nights. And MIRA Festival has revealed its 2026 lineup as it marks its 15th anniversary at Fira Montjuïc in Barcelona this November. Leading the bill: Arca, Max Cooper, and Shygirl, among others. Fifteen years at one of Europe's most distinctive art and music crossover events — worth keeping on the radar. Now, what's on tonight in Ibiza? A LOT. Universe hosts Paradise with Jamie Jones back-to-back with Chris Stussy — that's a pairing worth showing up early for. Ushuaïa goes big with Tomorrowland presents, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike headlining. Pacha opens the Baddest Behaviour season with Mau P going all night long. Amnesia brings Resistance Ibiza — Adam Beyer, Eric Prydz and Maceo Plex all on the same bill. Cova Santa has Rumors with Guy Gerber and Lee Burridge. Playa Soleil Bora Bora runs Sunwaves Ibiza with Marco Faraone, Cristina Lazic, LEON, Priku and Shonky. And Chinois has Mahmut Orhan, Volkoder, and Benja back-to-back with Franc Fala. That's all folks! Curated by me, narrated by my AI voice. For the human side, check out our weekly dance music selections, Ibiza club playlists and our DJ mixes. All links in the description.
