Nothing is what it seems in this Motel. From the outside you could confuse it with a hotel on sunset strip or highway 99…frequented by movie stars behaving badly, bank robbers on the run and couples catching an hour between marriages..
This is no ordinary motel. As you unlock the door the low hum of a bassline hits your ears..and the flashing of lights push themselves under the foot of a door down the darkly list corridor and is broken by the shapes of bodies dancing. As you walk into the lobby a broken neon sign flashes the house rules…
Masks on please
As you pick up the mask and place it on your face it feels warm..like it is connected and your body starts to relax and feels so awake you feel you will burst.
As you near the door your subconscious realises there are other rooms to the left and right. Dark shadows move and yet you feel no fear. Something inside you knows every element of what happens in this hotel is about pleasure and euphoria. You set your mind to explore every room.
As you stand in front of the door…..your hand poised to turn the handle….your heart pounding ….the door opens of its own accord welcoming you in. The heat of the room hits you like a warm embrace, the music covers you…loud and yet clear….synched with your heartbeat as the room moves together as One.
The feeling is strange, whilst everyone is concealed their eyes connect with you and it’s like you know everyone in the room, perhaps you do…
Everyone there together to share the feeling of being behind the doors of the Masquerade Motel and the feeling anonymity and mystery brings…coming together as one to perform in the best show on earth…
“It’s not a place where people stand and watch you on a stage…they surround you, they engulf you and as such Swedish House Mafia wanted to deliver a theme that even the most timid of guests would join in…Ibiza is where everyone dives into the venue, submersed in the event the hosts have created and this year is no exception. The people ARE the show.”
To celebrate the release of ’How Soon is Now’ by David Guetta, Sebastian Ingrosso and Dirty South we thought a competition was in order! Ingrosso and the rest of the Swedish crew would like to offer up a pair of VIP tickets to this year’s Creamfields and the chance to meet the artists themselves! All you need to do is answer this simple question:
At which Ibiza venue does David Guetta hold his regular night “F*** ME I’M FAMOUS!”? Amusing pictures and videos of yourself in the clubs will help win this! Answers on an email to COMPETITIONS! Deadline: Wednesday 26th August. Good Luck!
‘How Soon is Now’ brings together three of the most formidable producers in dance music to create this outstanding and emotive record. Together David Guetta, Sebastian Ingrosso and Dirty South mixed the beats and with the song lusciously delivered by Julie McKnight of “Finally” fame, this is classic future house music in the making.
