BOMBA Ibiza: The Danny Whittle Interview - from... →
I must say Danny Whittle came across like a class act and stand up guy. Well done! With that, I wish him well with BOMBA and any endeavor he touches on the island! I would definitely go to experience Yousef’s party; Circus.

Pacha Ibiza flipping the script with their Talent →
Interesting article and definitely surprised Morillo isn’t returning for another season. Hmmm I wonder how that will affect him playing for Eddie Dean and at Pacha in NYC.

The Amazing Faculty
After last year’s trip to Ibiza in August I decided I would start my first artist album and gave myself 1 year to complete it so that it would be ready by this year’s trip to Ibiza.
