The lineup Artwork, aka Arthur Smith, is a dynamic force in the dance music world, having been a critical part of the scene's evolution through pioneering projects like Magnetic Man, to the soul-infused techno loops as Grain, and further with the beloved UK raving institution, Art's House. With a journey marked by wild gigs, unforgettable experiences, and a pure love for house and disco, Artwork's sets are renowned for their vibrant tapestry of vibes, underpinned by his exceptional talent and fueled by a belief that in his house, we are all equal. As the founder of Z Records, Dave Lee ZR has been a driving force in the dance music scene. Previously known as Joey Negro, his track "Must Be The Music" is a feel-good anthem that's perfect for Glitterbox. Fat Tony is a London-based DJ known for his eclectic sets and larger-than-life personality. He was once known for being notoriously hedonistic, but more so now as an LGBTQ+ activist and go-to DJ for all things disco! Heidi Lawden’s London upbringing caused her to enter the club and rave scene as a teenager and that’s where her love of music was ignited. Now, you can find her based in Calfornia, but travelling across the globe to play at clubs and festivals including Panorama Bar, Kaiku, Coachella, Love International, Sunset Campout, Glastonbury, Kala Festival, Daytrip Beat Hotel, Cocktail De Amore and, of course, Glitterbox. Jayda G, a GRAMMY-nominated producer, has captivated the dance music scene with her distinctive blend of vintage drum machine funk, drawing inspiration from Chicago's house blueprint, as seen in her debut album "Significant Changes" and her 2021 GRAMMY-nominated EP “Both Of Us / Are You Down.” Mark Farina, a Chicago-born DJ and influential figure in the global dance music scene, is renowned for his creation of "Mushroom Jazz," a unique blend of jazzy beats, disco classics, and house music. With a career spanning over three decades, Farina's non-stop touring, prolific content creation, and chart-topping releases like Mushroom Jazz 8 continue to make him a living legend, and we can’t wait to see what he does at Glitterbox Ibiza. Melvo Baptiste started his Glitterbox journey by hosting the Glitterbox radio show in 2017 and becoming the voice of the brand. His debut release on the label was a turning point in Baptiste’s career and gained support from music legends such as Louie Vega, Dave Lee and Horse Meat Disco. London-based DJ, producer and owner of Snatch! Records Riva Starr is known for his genre-defying sets and will showcase his mastery by keeping you on your toes. A Glitterbox favorite! A Dallas-born artist, Zach Witness' musical journey began as a b-boy at age 5, evolving through drumming and punk bands to becoming a DJ and club king. His collaboration with Erykah Badu on the album But You Cain't Use My Phone marked a turning point, leading to mentorship from figures like André 3000 and a move to London, where he continues to craft music that reminds listeners to dance, feel, and be present.
