09 YOU HAVE KNOWN IBIZA FOR A LONG TIME AND HAVE LIVED HERE. WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER FROM YOUR TIME LIVING ON THE ISLAND? I’ve been coming to Ibiza for around 10 years now but I did my first season living there in 2017 for 3 years including the winters so I really got to know the island more and also made lots of friends who live there full time now. To be surrounded by music all the time is the best and I’ll never get bored of it! It definitely feels like a second home. During the winters it’s much quieter so I spent a lot of time in the studio whilst going back to the UK for gigs. And during the summer I was the resident DJ at Tantra in Playa Den Bossa and hosting their radio show, I met a lot of people through the summers who I am still really close with today. DO YOU MISS IBIZA? WHAT DO YOU MISS THE MOST? I miss being surrounded by the best clubs and music scene everyday of the week. The sun, the Spanish culture, plus the bread and aioli. WHERE ARE YOU CURRENTLY LIVING? HOW DOES IT HELP TO YOUR CAREER? Currently living just outside of London in Southampton, UK. It’s a short travel to London which means I get to play some wicked shows in the city and do studio sessions easily there as well. Lots of my friends in the industry live in London and also my booking agent so it’s always nice to catch up regularly. THIS SEPTEMBER, YOU WILL BE ON TOUR IN THE US, WITH GIGS IN TORONTO, LOS ANGELES, DENVER, CHICAGO... WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS FOR THIS TOUR? Some of the clubs I’ve played at before so I’m mega excited to return to those. It will be my first time playing in Denver so I can’t wait for that. I love playing in the US, the crowd are always so welcoming and bring so much energy. Chicago is definitely one of my favourite states to play, it’s where house music originated from so they really connect with the music! SPEAKING OF IBIZA, HOW HAVE YOUR EVENTS ON THE ISLAND BEEN THIS SUMMER? I recently played at Hï Ibiza for you guys in the Wild Corner and at Tantra in Playa Den Bossa. Closing the Wild Corner was special as it was my first time playing at Hï and closing sets are my favourite, there’s something really special about them. I love going on a journey with my set to end the night. Playing at Tantra was also really good, the refurb they’ve done to the venue has totally transformed it, the team there have worked really hard to get it ready for the summer so it was really nice to be a part of one of their first events of the season.
