Hello all.
I am looking into the realms of Ibiza 2011. As someone with a lifetimes' background in music this would be more of career thing than a working holiday. I would be giving up a job with good prospects and good pay too.
As an accomplished Drummer/Percussionist I went on to DJing around 10 years ago. Unfortunately I ended up with every djs' bete noire - Tinnitus! Foolishly rushed into giving up. Now I would like to get back to where I was.
Without wanting to sound arrogant I wouldnt want to give up my job to go and work in a bar (not that there is ANYTHING wrong with working in bar) so I was wondering whether or not I would find any work in the following areas -
- DJ (not expecting a set in a club, maybe just in a San An west end bar?)
- Percussionist
- Music Promotion (Giving out tracks on behalf of labels and collecting reactions)
- Club Promotion
- Freelance Club Photography (Someone which I'm just getting into!)
Basically you can see I just want to be immersed within the dance music scene and there is no better place than Ibiza!
I am also interested in promoting and running my own parties, maybe "workers parties" etc.
Anyone that could offer any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
