Shopping at Ibiza’s Las Dalias hippy market

4 July, 2008 | 8.06PM

Section: Music News Topics: Ibiza
Written by: Zack Rico

Last Saturday we visited Ibiza’s famous hippy market Las Dalias and discovered the meaning of personal shopping.

Not personal shopping in the shop-assistant-follows-you-around-and-licks-your-ass type of personal shopping, but shopping that was entirely a personal experience.

From the moment Beatportal walked through the opening of the Las Dalias hippy market the air was thick with the smell of fresh leather, incense and flowers.

It may or it may not be the last season for Berlin’s nuttiest restaurant/afterhours hang-out.

But whatever is going to happen at the end of this summer, Bar25 will live on, if only on DVD and as a record label.

All over Ibiza, the superclubs have their own stores selling branded gear, from Pacha, to Amnesia and Space.

Whilst some of it is predictably lame, there’s some cool stuff available for the summer months that will look exclusive in your country after you return from Ibiza.

Eric Prydz aka Pryda drops a bomb in Ibiza

Eden in San Antonio, Ibiza used to be a bit of a dive but whoever runs the club now has done a fantastic refurbishment job.

The sound, lighting and atmosphere in the club is currently right up there with the best venues in Ibiza and with the right DJs the club could rejuvenate San Antonio town, which has a reputation for being a drink-and-fight-all-you-want-for-5-euros British hangout.

Here’s a video I filmed of Eric Prydz aka Pryda dropping a quality electro-tech track in the main room of Eden whilst the strobes pound the dancefloor into submission.

Eric Prydz dropped a bootleg of Prodigy’s ‘Breathe’ last Sunday at Eden superclub in Ibiza, during Pete Tong’s new Wonderland weekly.

Does revisiting it pay respect to the original or is it tantamount to sonic vandalism?

You decide, by watching the video after the jump.

Apparently, “The show must go on” is a motto that the Wild In The Country Festival’s organizers are plenty familiar with.

Due to be the Icelandic singer’s only UK appearance this season, Bjork has canceled her headlining performance at the event, citing its organization as “volatile”.

Additionally, experimental band Battles has confirmed they have also pulled out of the festival.
