To mark its 10th anniversary, Classic Ibiza is once again asking fans to choose one of the tunes for the concert.

The organisers of the event, which will take place on July 5 at Ragley Hall in Warwickshire, are asking fans to help select the tunes to be performed by Urban Soul Orchestra, conducted by Stephen Hussey, and the show’s special guests, London Community Gospel Choir.

This year, Urban Soul Orchestra will perform more tracks than ever before, including audience favourites such as Insomnia by Faithless, Born Slippy by Underworld, and Adagio For Strings by Tiësto.

London Community Gospel Choir will add a fresh dynamic to the first half of the show.

The shortlisted tracks are: Blackwater by Octave One, Gypsy Woman (She’s Homeless) by Crystal Waters, (I Wanna Give You) Devotion by Nomad, Lola’s Theme by The Shapeshifters, Praise You by Fatboy Slim, Saltwater by Chicane, Sun Is Shining by Bob Marley vs. Funkstar De Luxe, Sunchyme by Dario G, Unfinished Sympathy by Massive Attack, Where Love Lives by Alison Limerick, Frankie Knuckles, and David Morales, Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad? by Moby, and You Got the Love by The Source ft. Candi Staton.

Lisa Ward from Classic Ibiza said: "Classic Ibiza has always been about reimagining iconic house tunes to create a unique musical experience that is truly memorable.

"This year we’ll be taking the show to a whole new level, with London Community Gospel Choir joining Stephen Hussey’s incredible Urban Soul Orchestra as our special guests.

"Our annual track poll is a massive hit with our social media followers, so we want to do something extra-special to mark our 10th birthday celebrations.

"It gives our concertgoers the chance to feel part of the creative process – a true case of playing to your audience."

Voting is open until April 21, and the eight most popular tracks will be announced shortly afterwards.
