Mathame deliver their signature emo-tech sound to The White Isle with a four-week run at the iconic Amnesia. Experience the trailer for this season’s residency here.
Italian duo Mathame landed on the Ibizan sands this Friday, debuting their groundbreaking NEO residency at the iconic Amnesia Ibiza as part of a marquee 4-week stint. The highly anticipated series sees Mathame unveil the latest iteration of their live show centered around a striking simulacrum—a statue symbolizing the AI deity of rebels, underdogs, outsiders, pirates, and all those who refuse to be categorized. Throughout August, fans on The White Isle will see Mathame redefine the standards for immersive nightlife experiences, with sound itself taking center stage to create a powerful atmosphere reminiscent of a dystopian club from the future.
The opening night of Mathame’s NEO residency was nothing short of revolutionary: a full sensory immersion into the duo’s captivating new sonic universe. This innovative, genre-defying sound marks the culmination of two years of meticulous sonic exploration, presenting audiences with music never heard before, melodically potent, emotionally rich, and impossible to define by existing conventions. Together, the show dials in a striking new musical aesthetic coined by some as emo-tech.
In March of this year, Mathame set the internet ablaze with their entirely AI-generated NEO trailer. The concept video captivated global audiences, firmly establishing a compelling narrative and anticipation for this historic summer residency.
On Friday night, the anticipation translated into a stunning reality, transforming Amnesia into a futuristic realm. The duo’s live sets drew listeners deeper into their visionary approach, balancing dreamlike cyberpunk aesthetics with a profoundly human emotional resonance. The set, constructed around original productions, daring remixes, and highly anticipated IDs, demonstrated the duo’s bold commitment to innovation. Support from Don Diablo and a back-to-back set from Afshin Momadi and Lyke completed the night, reaffirming Amnesia Ibiza as the epicenter of musical innovation on Ibiza this summer.
Excitement continues to mount as Mathame returns next Friday for an exclusive back-to-back with house visionary GORDO. The residency gains further momentum on August 22 with techno innovator Dubfire and BBC Radio 1 favorite Mistajam joining the lineup, before the series reaches its climax on August 29 with a curtain-call showcase featuring an exclusive back-to-back from Parisi and okgiorgio.
Mathame’s residency at Amnesia Ibiza coincides with a banner season for the duo, highlighted by the long-awaited release of ‘Love Somebody’ (a much sought-after ID) and the global success of their Dream of NEO concept, an acclaimed spin-off premiered at Tomorrowland and showcased across major festivals worldwide. With their sights now set on Ibiza, Mathame’s NEO residency represents not only a creative milestone but also hints at the emergence of the new emo-tech sound. Three shows remain. Secure your spot now and witness the birth of the future with Mathame’s NEO at the legendary Amnesia Ibiza.
Italian brothers Matteo and Amedeo Giovanelli, known as Mathame, craft transportive electronic music that blurs the lines between club euphoria and cinematic storytelling. Emerging from the volcanic solitude of Mount Etna, the duo’s emotionally charged sound has made them one of the most influential acts in melodic techno, with acclaimed releases like “Skywalking” and “Nothing Around Us” and their debut album MEMO, named one of Forbes’ Top 15 Albums of the Year.
Mathame’s boundary‑pushing artistry extends from global stages like Tomorrowland, Coachella, Ultra Miami, Hï Ibiza, and Printworks to cult streaming performances, including their 3D‑animated PHOENIX set and Cercle’s Mount Etna session. Their creative vision also fuels the NEO project—an audiovisual world and live show series that premiered at Amnesia Ibiza and has since sold out venues in Buenos Aires, Dubai, and New York, with a global tour reaching Los Angeles, São Paulo, Cairo, and beyond.
By fusing Matteo’s cinematic sense with Amedeo’s classical rigor, Mathame create poetic, visceral journeys that transcend genres, generations, and dimensions—building not just music, but worlds.
