Music is more than sound. It carries identity, memory, community, resistance & even rebellion.
It builds bridges across generations, defines places, and reflects the social and cultural realities we inhabit.
In Ibiza, music has long been a defining cultural force — shaping the island’s stories, rituals, and global imagination.
For a very special episode of Beat Wala, we invited an audience to Soho House on the island intimate conversation with a trio of guest speakers who influence and shape today’s musical landscape.
Guest Speakers:
Igor Marijuan: Music director Akasha
Sharon Simonetta: Chinois
Manu Gonzalez: DJ / Producer
Together we explored how music has shaped the islands cultural identity and what Ibiza’s musical culture reveals about who we are today. We heard how sound becomes both a cultural archive and a catalyst for transformation.
Thank you to Manu for the opening track, One Kiss Ft Kiki.
