Session #126 (Feat. DJ Oliver)

DJ Oliver (Ibiza)

DJ Oliver has become one of the greatest exponents of House & Tech house music and a world ambassador for the sound of Ibiza.

Oliver’s musical beginnings started back in the 90’s just as Acid House was exploding! At the age of 15 he got his first set of turntables and built his own home studio at his parent’s house in Barcelona. It wasn’t long before he would make the short journey across the sea to the island of Ibiza.

DJ Oliver’s rapid development in electronic music really began in 1992 when he started working in Privilege Ibiza, the world’s biggest nightclub,where he shared the DJ booth with the likes of Frankie Knuckles, Sven Vath, Roger Sanchez, Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier, DJ Sneak, Faithless, Armand van Helden and many more. It was during that golden age of house music and of Ibiza’s clubbing scene that Oliver began to experiment with those new sounds and turned his hand to production. With a natural ability for mixing records creatively as well as a talent for production, he was quickly noticed by those superstar DJ’s and other big clubs on the island.

Over the next decade, DJ Oliver became synonymous with Ibiza through residences attwo of the islands most iconic clubs, Amnesia and Space. His impressive high energy performances caught the attention of BBC Radio 1 who invited him to record a special Essential Mix live from Space in 2006 as part of their legendary Radio 1 weekend in Ibiza.
