Midnight Mystery Club, the dynamic electronic duo of David Newell and Llavar Mindley, has been breaking boundaries in the music scene since 2015. Their latest single, “A Church in Ibiza,” released in June 2024, is nothing short of a sonic pilgrimage, encapsulating the very essence of their mission: to elevate listeners beyond the ordinary. This track solidifies their reputation as sonic explorers, guiding listeners to places where reality melts into dreams.

As Fenom Mag aptly describes, “A Church in Ibiza” is “a revelation… a gateway to a world where your mind can wander freely.” It’s more than a track; it’s an experience that intertwines spirituality with hedonism, all while blurring the line between the tangible and the surreal. The Musical Road hails it as “a fascinating departure from the typical tropical house genre… a surreal odyssey,” praising the duo’s mastery in crafting a rich, captivating soundscape. The song beautifully captures the ethereal transition of Ibiza’s twilight hours, when day surrenders to night, and the air becomes thick with endless possibilities.

Since their 2015 debut, “Keep a Beat” on Secret Life Records, Midnight Mystery Club has remained true to their Balearic-inspired roots. Their blend of deep house, soulful grooves, and lush electronica not only earned them the 2018 Independent Music Award for Electronic Producers of the Year but has also secured them a loyal fanbase, with over 10 million streams to their name.

Drawing from the sonic palettes of the 70s and 80s, Midnight Mystery Club fuses nostalgia with a modern, cutting-edge twist. Their music has soundtracked the iconic sunsets at Café Mambo Ibiza and Café del Mar, and their signature sound has been featured in campaigns for global brands like Zara, The Gap, and Tommy Hilfiger.

More than just artists, Midnight Mystery Club are curators of atmospheric experiences, transporting listeners to serene, sun-soaked shores and cool, shaded groves. With each release, they reaffirm their calling: to take us far from life’s chaos, into realms where time stands still and all feels possible. “A Church in Ibiza” is just the latest stop on this unforgettable journey.
