Ibiza is a very popular tourist destination, especially due to its legendary and at times riotous nightlife centered around two areas: Ibiza Town, the island's capital on the eastern shore and Sant Antoni to the West.

Ibiza Town has become a popular destination for tourists. The most famous clubs include Privilege (the largest club in the world), Eden (the busiest nightclub in Sant Antoni), Es Parads (noted for its water parties), Amnesia (known for foam parties), Space (an afterparty club), Pacha, and DC10.

These clubs have become the centre of the worldwide electronic music movement. During the summer, world class DJs perform at the various clubs on weekly schedules, in between touring to other international destinations. Many of these DJs use Ibiza as an outlet for presenting new songs within the house and trance genres of electronic dance music. A typical schedule for clubbers going to Ibiza includes waking at noon, early evening naps, late night clubbing, and "disco sunrises". Due to Ibiza's notable tolerance toward misbehavior from young adult tourists, it has acquired the sobriquet "Gomorrah of the Med".

It is also famous for Caf del Mar, a long-standing bar where many tourists traditionally view the sunset made famous by Jos Padilla. Caf Mambo is situated next door, and has become an increasingly popular venue for club pre-parties after sunset, boasting big names such as Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Frankie Knuckles, Pete Tong, Paul Oakenfold, Sasha, Erick Morillo and David Guetta.

With live music in focus with this weekends Jazz Aspen Snowmass Labor Day Experience, my mind turns to several standout acts that performed at Belly Up this summer. Aspens main music venue features more than 300 live shows a year, with a cross-section of styles, genres and entertainers from all over the world, including the following performers who each earning a rave review from their audience.

On June 26, DJ and electronic music composer Nightmares on Wax (aka DJ Ease) came to town on tour for his N.O.W IS THE TIME compilation celebrating a 25-year career. The Leeds, England-born, now Ibiza, Spain-based performer was joined by his band for a vibrant show, infusing reggae, hip-hop and what he helped pioneer, trip-hop.

On July 26, Grammy-winning guitarist Gary Clark, Jr., brought the house down with his brooding blues and authentic rock. Based in Austin, Texas, Clark has been on the road for nearly two years noted as a breakout act in that short time performing everywhere from Coachella to Londons Royal Albert Hall and as a regular guest with the Rolling Stones.

On Aug. 6, Australian electronic band Cut Copy, fronted by DJ Dan Whitford, followed up their previous nights appearance at Red Rocks with an electrifying performance in Aspen. From the opener to the encore, they kept the dance floor packed, crossing the gamut with their smash hits Lights & Music and Hearts on Fire to songs off of their latest album, Free Your Mind.

Acts on my radar at the festival this weekend include pop-rock band OneRepublic, of Colorado Springs, on today and rock/soul band The Revivalists from New Orleans on Sunday both stars on the rise and sure to energize.
