Hostal La Torre releases La Torre Ibiza Volumen Cinco featuring Boards of Canada, Mazzy Star, Auntie Flo & more
8 Aug 2025
To celebrate 10 years of golden-hour magic, Hostal La Torre has released La Torre Ibiza Volumen Cinco: a 15-track, double-vinyl and CD journey curated by Balearic mainstays Pete Gooding and Mark Barrott.
Released today (August 8) on CD and double vinyl, the 15-track collection captures the spirit of the venue that has come to define the golden-hour soundtrack of the island’s west coast.
From timeless icons like Nina Simone, Mazzy Star, Talk Talk (with their Spirit of Eden closer “Wealth”), and Boards of Canada, to boundary-pushers like Auntie Flo, Eden Burns, and µ-Ziq (aka Mike Paradinas), Volumen Cinco weaves together deep-rooted classics and leftfield discoveries. Mark Barrott contributes a brand-new exclusive, ‘When Devils Become Gods’, while the compilation closes on a rare gem from Yellow Magic Orchestra’s Yukihiro Takahashi. Also included is Software’s ‘Present Voice’, a quietly powerful tribute to the late José Padilla, the spiritual architect of Ibiza’s sunset sound.

Over the years, La Torre has welcomed some of the most influential names in Balearic and electronic music, from José Padilla, Alfredo, and Jon Sa Trinxa to DJ Harvey, David Holmes, Lovefingers, Heidi Lawden, Wolf Müller, Don Carlos, and Phil Mison. With each summer season and each release, the venue continues to build a musical legacy that has earned critical acclaim from Resident Advisor, Phonica Records, Juno, and Piccadilly Records, regularly featuring in their year-end lists.
