This guy has been rocking this joint for the last 20 odd years or so! Remember him from early 2000’s…. Glad to see him still going… An amazing DJ, one of the best…. Kudos to you mate…. 👍
Back when there actually was some space to dance. Now they pack the clubs so full there is no space to dance or move. I wonder what the safe regulations really say about how many people can be in the Ibiza clubs.
I was 20 years old in 1992 but I started going out in 1988. Always dreamed of making it to Ibiza but never did. I grew up in Antwerp en I rapidly transitioned from new beat/acid (14 years old), to 80s/90s R&B (there was a Club called Funk You) to House Clubs like Cafe d'Anvers and ultimately Fuse in Brussels. We used to listen to listen to the RADIO and all kids in high school used to tune in to special radio shows that played electronic music and then talk about it the next day at school. Summers were spent with my friends near Jerez de la Frontera at PACHA (foam parties) and Oh Puerto! No drugs contrary to what people think. Mostly getting drunk every night and sleeping on the beach. I even went to Detroit once to meet with Mike Banks at UR since I was making music for DJAX and Bonzai at the time. Good memories. Beautiful yet crazy girlfriend though. Hope she's OK. And like other people say. Almost everybody went to the clubs to DANCE. You talked to your friends at school and met up at the club at night. It is indeed weird why everybody is looking at the DJ booth right now instead of really being there to dance. This I don't get. It feels weird for sure. And yes... no cell phones, social media, internet was just peeping out of its nest and was used only by maybe 5% of the population (I was one of them; had to go to the head office of my bank and they had a room with PCs where you could log on... pre-netscape era I believe). Things changed for sure. I don't believe for the worse or the better. 80s had terrorism (CCC, RAF, IRA, Bende van Nijvel, lots of not so good things going on). I eventually moved to NYC and went to clubs like The Tunnel and the Limelight. But the scene in NY was definitely not at the same level as in Europe. Was it better back then? Human beings tend to see past times through a romantic lens. Nothing wrong with that. I like the quote by Charles Dickens: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.” PS: Right now I live in San Francisco and I sometimes go to events at Public Works but it doesn't draw the same crowds as I used to see in Europe. Different vibe. Who knows. Maybe I'll move back to Europe after 30 years in the US. Kids just left for college. Wife is gone. House is sold. I did everything I could. Life is still good. Blessings.
"L O V E D O V E" that compound created a whole area of music circa 1991-1996 for some strange reason that drug had no coming down side effects look at the crowd 09:00 still rocking
I have been watching videos of Raves, Goa raves and Ibiza Nights all around 90 to 93 all different events but with the same energy and euphoria. It seems like the golden age lasted until the mid nineties. I didn’t start going to events until mid 1995 so I never got to experience any of it in its prime. Nothing I go to these days, looks as exciting as this !
Me encantan las luces sin que suenen los altavoces. E visto el vídeo sin darle volumen desde el principio y mi cerebro hacia la bouche-sweet Dreams todo el puto tiempo.
