Overview
Solomun+1 is a legendary Ibiza party series that began in 2013 at Pacha, one of the island’s most iconic nightclubs. The concept was the brainchild of Bosnian-German DJ and producer Solomun, who had already made his mark on the global electronic music scene with his Diynamic label and distinct blend of deep house and Techno.
The premise of Solomun+1 was simple: each event would feature Solomun performing alongside a single guest artist, creating an intimate and immersive musical journey. This format allowed for extended back-to-back sets, enabling the artists to push creative boundaries and connect more deeply with the audience. The "+1" format emphasizes quality over quantity, focusing on a curated experience rather than overwhelming the lineup with numerous DJs.
From its inception, Solomun+1 quickly became one of the most talked-about residencies in Ibiza. Its success was fueled by Solomun’s reputation for delivering emotionally charged and dynamic sets, combined with the allure of Pacha’s glamorous and intimate setting. The club’s unique layout, its close-knit dance floor, and VIP balconies provide the perfect environment for the personal connection that Solomun and his guests sought to create.
Over the years, Solomun+1 has featured a who’s who of electronic music, including Dixon, Ame, DJ Koze, and Richie Hawtin. Each guest brought their unique sound to the event, ensuring that no two nights were the same. The chemistry between Solomun and his guests often resulted in legendary back-to-back sessions that remain firmly woven into Ibiza’s musical tapestry.
By the time the 2020s rolled around, Solomun+1 had cemented its status as a must-attend event for any Ibiza visitor, Solomun himself had catapulted to the top echelons of the DJ circuit and remains one of the world’s most revered and in-demand DJs and producers.
Solomun+1’s popularity was not just confined to the island. The brand expanded globally, with special editions in Paris, Berlin, Buenos Aires, London, Tulum, and New York.
Solomun+1 remains at its home of Pacha and with Solomun at the helm, guiding the night with his signature sound, it is consistently the busiest event on the island each Sunday. The series' continued success is a testament to its ability to evolve while staying true to its core concept of providing an unparalleled musical experience. A true taste of Ibiza.
