A pivotal nightspot in the explosion of electronic music worldwide, it was the catalyst for the Balearic sound pioneered by the late Alfredo and pal Leo Mas. Amnesia continued to develop through the late ’80s, ’90s and noughties, becoming a crucial rave home for techno, progressive and trance sounds, continually morphing and developing from season to season, and bringing through all manner of dance stars who we now love and cherish. To mark its 50th anniversary this season, Kristan J Caryl talks to former residents such as Sven Väth and others for whom Amnesia has been hugely influential Kristan J Caryl Thu, 04 Jun 2026 15:13:05 BST DJ Mag https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/Amnesia-50-HEADER_0.jpg.webp?itok=t25_8ho2 https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/Amnesia-50-HEADER_0.jpg.webp?itok=t25_8ho2 https://djmag.com/news/new-warehouse-venue-hangr-open-sheffield “This journey has been long, testing, but all the while worth it, and now we’ve created a venue for the love of music and Sheffield” Martin Guttridge-Hewitt Thu, 04 Jun 2026 14:19:19 BST DJ Mag https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/Screenshot%202026-06-04%20at%2014.25.33.png.webp?itok=IyR4MT6b https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/Screenshot%202026-06-04%20at%2014.25.33.png.webp?itok=IyR4MT6b https://djmag.com/news/new-book-documents-ministry-of-sounds-early-years-through-unseen-archive-material Ministry of Sound (Anthology) features contributions from Honey Dijon, Moby, David Morales, and more Martin Guttridge-Hewitt Thu, 04 Jun 2026 13:36:00 BST DJ Mag https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/wfglian_qx28gnqd0vioi.jpg.webp?itok=WC8UGeRn https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/wfglian_qx28gnqd0vioi.jpg.webp?itok=WC8UGeRn https://djmag.com/news/watch-chase-status-play-virtual-dj-set-new-james-bond-game-007-first-light The UK drum & bass duo appear performing a virtual DJ set during a nightclub mission Martin Guttridge-Hewitt Thu, 04 Jun 2026 12:27:53 BST DJ Mag https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/Screenshot%202026-06-04%20at%2014.02.30.png.webp?itok=mopgOW-l https://djmag.com/sites/default/files/styles/djm_23_430x242/public/2026-06/Screenshot%202026-06-04%20at%2014.02.30.png.webp?itok=mopgOW-l
