Well its now all over, the anticipation of waiting at the airport and wondering what the week will have in store, this visit was no exception.

Arrived tuesday 20th 6.00am flight from stanstead - got in IBIZA around 10am and headed to the catalina aprtments in San Antonio , for what was going to be our home for the next few weeks.

Got to the apartments and got our heads down as i was Soooooooooooooo tired and wanted to be fresh for the evening activities. Woke at around 6pm and popped just outside my door to Savanahs were we had a few drinks and watched the sunset then a quik change of cloths and to the rodeo bar for the footy.

Awfull game of footy but the atmosphere was good, ventured to the westend to meet various reprobates, and visited peepes such as darren from strikers, Dave from trops etc etc. stayed im the westend till around 3 am ish and made my way to Eden for gatecrasher Classics. Awfull night stayed till the end but got sooooooooooooooooooooooo bored. This was the worst i have ever seen Dave Pearce Arrogant and boring (has previously been very good)

Had an after party in what seemed to be a kitchen with a ghetto blaster and pots and pans hanging everywhere.

Wednesday just chilled on beach during the day and fellow mates mark and mandy arrived to which we had far toooooo many drinks and drunk until the sunrised, also fell in love with the girl from the Eden Rooms she was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo nice.

Thursday - Chillled during the day then eaerly evening made our way to plastic where was waqs playing at the Pukka Up pre party. started playing at 12 nd was very wuite but got busier near the end and at on epint we had me the place rocking (we being me and tom keys)

Dropped records back and was too ****ed to do cream, we went to Eden were Alex Ellenger played an awesome electeo house set, left at 5am cause coldnt handle it no more and tyhe place had become dead.

Friday - Once again Savanahs during day getting some rays and had to leave early to play the pukka up boat party - now after explaining to pukka up in the uk we play dirty house and electro and send them a demo cd we arrive for them to ask us to play funky. ha ha ha we aint got no funky.

To Dermott C's dislike we started the boat party off with our dirty house sound, dermott gave us this nig speech about how clubs have a music policy blah blah blah and that you haqve to stick to it.

fair enuff we kept it chilled as much as we could, dermott c done the last set and played the filthiest house and electro (so much for his big speech earlier)

Boat party apartment shower then stright to Es paradis
The club quickly filled up Pukka Up seems to be one of the few nights to fill es paradis, again we had the trouble of being asked to play funk (which we dont have) so we tohught **** it play what we want) and we did and after an hour or so gemma the promoter came up to us and said carry on playing this sound people are coming in and not leaving. got filthy and filthy (althou technicy a few mistakes but put down to nerves) and at one point i felt we had es paradis rocking to our filthy electro howlceanisyourhouse sound !!

Saturday - chilled during the day then to oraqnge corner we we hosted a howcleanisyourhouse, tom keys kicked off the sunset session with some goood chille minimal house then picked it up by then end once again the filthy sound was blarring and a good time was had by all. jamie (filthy gourgeous) who runs the music @ OC is a top bloke and have every respect for him.

Sunday - up early bit of brekkie (hadnt eaten all week) and its off to space we go, not sure who was on when i got there but technicly wasnt very good made lots of mistakes althou the atmosphere was buzzing. saw john morbyd and another spotlighter who john introduced me to but cant remember his name ( was it nick ??) kept buzzing there forgot about the football and left jyst after 7 ish as we had been invite to bar m by judge jules.

Went to bar m about 11ish to have a few drinks and a chat with jules, jules is a top bloke he went and played his half hour pre party set then came back up to talk to us talked bout his family ibiza in general blah blah got put on the guset for JS and thought why not.

Went to JS and it was banging, hadaccess all area passes and met trp[hy twins lisa lashes and varouis promoters, also managed to get HCIYH the backroom for JS in september :)

stayed till about 7.30 when they kicked us out went home to sleep.

Monday was our last night so went to see some old friends had far too many drinks and was going to a place called Ket ove for a workers party which i never made it too. was gunna pop down the fishermans that plce is messy its the new wipps

tuesday gutted we were going home stayed round savannahs and chilled went for a meal relaised only eaten about twice all week then got a taxi to the airport, tear in my eye we reluctently flew off bacdk the the good old UK

Ibiza is still as magical and met soem great people including Morbyd again, buckly again, Nick?, and the character and legend that is DJSOULMAN

I mostly agree with the saying: "it's never goodbye, but see you later" 8)
 
i think he means the girl standing at the door, big heels, short skirts......almost hides the fact she has a face like an ape!

Once again John an honour to meet you again, think i may have to check out Russia at some point later in the year ! HCIYH is dotting the I's and Crossing the T's on an IBIZA Summer residency for 2007(Already) so we must have something to offer. What started off as a party for mates etc where we can play filthy house and electro has snowballed and fast 1 night led to another and another and another. Hard work but i love it, its a real passion of mine and im living the dream.

Got a few guests involved to including the very talented Richard Belsom from the Shake DJ's and a brother duo called Dex n FX 2 brothers various controllers synths and ailbeton. (amazing)

Anyway John think you should write a review get gosebumps reading these !

Thanks again John and Hola Zabtron :)
 
Cool news on Ibiza '07.. good luck with that!

I forgot that you saw Nick at Turnmills... that was a bit surreal with you, Nick, Robder, Grego, Mark Sun and I all standing on the same dancefloor.... though I'll admit it got even moreso at Space with all the other people around!
