🎧 Miss Monique Makes History With Ibiza 2025 Residency
IBIZA, Spain – Progressive house phenom Miss Monique is making waves this summer as she headlines her first-ever Ibiza residency, a milestone that cements her place among the most influential electronic artists of the new generation. Known for her melodic, emotionally driven sets and distinctive neon-green look, Miss Monique (real name: Olesia Arkusha) is the first Ukrainian female DJ to host a summer-long residency on the island.
🌅 Thursdays at Hï Ibiza: A New Era of Sound
Every Thursday from June 26 to September 18, Miss Monique commands the Club Room at Hï Ibiza, one of the island’s most prestigious venues. Her weekly sets run parallel to HUGEL’s Latin house–fueled “Make The Girls Dance” series in the venue’s main Theatre.
The Club Room shows are fully curated by Miss Monique and often feature artists from her own Siona Records label, offering a showcase of progressive house, melodic techno, and emotionally rich electronica. Expect a more introspective, immersive experience than the main floor—yet still energetic enough to keep Ibiza dancing past dawn.
✈️ From Kyiv to the Global Stage
Born in Ukraine in 1992, Miss Monique began DJing in the early 2010s. Her breakthrough came via her MiMo Weekly and Mind Games YouTube podcasts, which helped establish her global fanbase. Today, she boasts over 1.1 million YouTube subscribers, 300+ million views, and bookings in over 40 countries, including standout sets at Tomorrowland, Cercle, and Awakenings.
As war ravaged her homeland, Miss Monique became an informal cultural ambassador, using her platform to spread Ukrainian visibility while continuing to perform globally. Her Ibiza residency is being celebrated not just as a personal achievement, but as a symbol of international resilience and cultural crossover.
💿 Siona Records and the Progressive Renaissance
Founded in 2019, Siona Records has become a hub for melodic house and techno talent from across Europe and Latin America. For Ibiza, Miss Monique has committed to bringing this same global spirit, often programming lesser-known but high-quality DJs into her lineup.
Her style—warm synths, hypnotic builds, and subtle emotional arcs—offers a refreshing contrast to the harder or bass-heavy sounds dominating some of Ibiza’s larger events. She represents a rebirth of true progressive house, reminiscent of Sasha & Digweed but updated for the modern digital era.
💬 “A Dream Come True”
Miss Monique called the residency “a dream come true,” writing on her socials:
“To have my name on the iconic billboards of Ibiza, to share this space with some of the best in the world, and to bring my sound every week—it’s truly surreal.”
And the dream is catching on. Attendance has been strong, especially among Eastern European expats and progressive house fans looking for something deeper than commercial EDM.
🌍 Why It Matters
Miss Monique’s success in Ibiza is about more than music:
-
It shatters gender barriers in an industry still dominated by men.
-
It puts a spotlight on Ukrainian artistry in a time of global unrest.
-
And it signals the return of progressive house as a serious, emotive, and immersive genre capable of headlining the world’s biggest dancefloors.
