This week Ibiza Rocks club night, Reclaim the Dancefloor opened it’s doors. Taking place every Tuesday night from midnight until September 8 at Eden Nightclub, Ibiza, throughout the season Reclaim the Dancefloor will play host to some of the best known DJs including Digitalism, Pendulum, Chase & Status, Fake Blood, Boys Noize, Kissy Sellout, and Benga but for the opening week 2manyDJs kick started the season with the first of their five date guest spot. Joined by Bloody Beetroots cohort Steve Aoki and straight from the UK, Cassette Jam, all supported by the Reclaim resident, Doorly.
We’ve been supporting Doorly in our sets for a while now, chucking in his great re-rub of Calvin Harris ‘I’m Not Alone’ when the mood suits, but this time it ain’t a remix he’s giving away…
To celebrate the opening of Reclaim, Doorly has put together his special ‘Reclaim the Dancefloor warm-up mix’ for you all to enjoy – teasing those that can’t make it to the island this year, wetting the appetite for those that can!

Some simple pleasures in life beg explanation yet need none. Micky Slim. At 10am in Ibiza after playing at Eden. With a mustache drawn on his face. Oh the memories.
Well Nathan and I have just got back from filming 3 hours of TV for dance video channel Flaunt. We got to present 30 of our favorite dance music videos as part of thewhiteisland.com’s takeover TV show, and greatly enjoyed acting like fools on camera. We also found out some interesting stuff about the strange symbol that was drawn on the inside of my bowler hat when it was returned to me by a weird little guy in Privilege Ibiza after being stolen. Apparently is has something to do with the disappearance of archaeologist Elisabeth Perl, but it’s all very confusing.
We took a picture of the symbol on the hat but it didn’t really come out on the camera phone. Check it out on the TV show if you can help us know what it means!
For music, mayhem and Ibiza mystery, check out The Young Punx presenting on Flaunt TV (UK) on Friday 5th September from 9pm to Midnight!
I have decided that Coke Floats are under-rated. Outside of USA diners they are pretty much extinct, a relic of a more innocent age of chrome finned Cadillacs and Wurlitzer Juke Boxes. My Coke Float epiphany came last week sitting in the mid afternoon sun in Kasbah, next to Kanya, Ibiza. Amidst the wanton debauchery of the Ibiza experience, the coke float seemed delightfully apposite and opposite. An echo of the teen experience of a less commercialized, less corrupted time, when rock and roll was new and everything was fresh and exciting. I’m sure that time never really existed, but whatever of that spirit was real, lives on in a Coke Float.
It’s half refreshment, half desert. It keeps you cool in the sun. It makes you feel fresh and new again.
What’s not to like.
