JOSEPH CAPRIATI'S METAMORFOSI RETURNS TO BARCELONA DURING SONAR OFF WEEK

 Joseph Capriati is taking his Metamorfosi event series back to Barcelona on 20th June 2026, when he takes over the Parc dels Auditoris stage at Parc del Fòrum during Sónar OFF Week. Jamie Jones, Max and Luke Dean, Sidney Charles and Vanee all are enlisted for the open-air event. 

 Originally launched as an extension of Capriati's artistic vision, Metamorfosi has developed into an influential platform encompassing events, releases and collaborations centred around the best house and techno artists in the world. The concept has hosted showcases at venues and festivals across Europe, with a focus on extended musical journeys and carefully curated line-ups and a standout Ibiza residency.. 

 

The Barcelona edition will once again utilise the waterfront setting of Parc del Fòrum, a venue that has become a regular destination for large-scale events. Taking place during one of the city's busiest weeks for dance music, the event joins a wider programme of parties and showcases surrounding Sónar Festival.

 

Capriati remains one of the most prominent figures in the scene and plays the world's best venues while moving through an essential mix of house and techno in many different shades. Joining him on the bill are Paradise founder Jamie Jones and rising UK artist Max Dean, whose profile has grown significantly over the past two years through a series of high-profile releases and international appearances, along with his cousin Luke, plus long time heavy house champion Sidney Charles and Vanee.

DIRTWIRE REIMAGINE MONOLINK’S “MESMERIZED”

The American duo deliver an ethereal and deeply organic reinterpretation as part of The Beauty Of It All remix series on Embassy One

Following the release of Monolink’s acclaimed third studio album The Beauty Of It All last year, Berlin based label Embassy One continues its diverse remix series with a striking new interpretation of “Mesmerized” from American band Dirtwire. Following previous reworks from Maxi Meraki, Yamagucci and Curol, the remix series now takes a markedly different turn, stepping away from club-focused territory and into something more restrained, spiritual and cinematic.

 

Dirtwire’s remix of “Mesmerized” strips the original back to its emotional essence, reshaping the track through a rich palette of organic instrumentation and atmospheric textures. Built around the duo’s signature use of world instruments, including kamale ngonis, jaw harps, bowed strings, and space fiddles, the remix unfolds with a slow and meditative energy that feels both earthly and otherworldly. Rather than building toward dancefloor release, the track drifts through expansive sonic landscapes, inviting deep listening and introspection.

 

Known for blending ethnomusicology, psychedelic experimentation and electronic production, Dirtwire occupy a unique space where ancient instrumentation meets modern sound design. Their music draws influence from years of global travel and cultural exchange; from Brazil’s favelas and Lagos’ Shrine to ceremonies in Central America and traditional performances in Bali. The result is a sound the band variously describes as “back porch space cowboy blues,” “swamptronica,” and “electro twang.”

 

Dirtwire’s productions and live performances are rooted in exploration, combining West African kamale ngonis, jaw harps, bowed banjos, mouth harps and electric string instruments with modern beat production and immersive soundscapes. Emerging from the underground west coast electronic bass scene, the duo have become recognised for pushing the boundaries between live instrumentation and electronic music, creating experiences that feel communal, transportive and deeply human.

 

With their reimagining of “Mesmerized,” Dirtwire open an entirely new dimension within The Beauty Of It All remix series. Ethereal, spacious and emotionally resonant, the reinterpretation moves beyond conventional remix structures to become something closer to a spiritual transmission, reframing Monolink’s original through texture, atmosphere and organic expression.
