One of Spain's greatest DJs and producers, DJ Oliver chats to Urban
Planet about his new single and what its like to be an Ibiza legend.
Tell us about your new single… how would you describe it and
who did you work?
Fake is a record that hits directly on the dancefloor and always gets a positive
reaction from the crowd. I tested it last year in my gigs, just when I finish
it with my partner Irtaman and is an excellent electrohouse tune. Irtaman is
my partner at the studio. A brilliant professional!
What have you been up to of late? Have you got any other projects in
the pipe line?
Yes. I'm finishing another 12". Also I am working on a new album which
I am really excited about, it’s kind of chilled out lounge-music style
and will be in the shops by the summer.
Do you live in Ibiza full time? If so, what is that like?
I live half year in Madrid and the other half in Ibiza. I was living all year
in Ibiza some time ago and it’s amazing to work in the studio in winter
but that’s about it. Ibiza is full of people only in the summer, the other
9 months is absolutely quiet.
Are you looking forward to the forthcoming party season in Ibiza?
Oh yes. I'm working so hard for the forthcoming gigs with Home Of La Troya
and generally with my gigs in and around Spain.
What plans do you have for La Troya? And what is it like being at Space
now instead of Amnesia?
There's no change with La Troya this year. It will be all Wednesday night
at Space and we hope it will be a great success this year too. Space at this
moment is the best club in the world. The sound, the people, the atmosphere
- there's nothing like it in the world.
Describe yourself in 5 words:
Natural, modest, laborious, respectful and a good-friend.
What is it like working with Azuli on the single?
It's a pleasure to work with Azuli. Azuli is one of the greatest labels in
house music and you can feel the difference. There is a lot of great professionals
working there and they built the legend that is Azuli.
DJ Oliver & Irtaman 'Fake' is out on Azuli in March.
