They are nearer Ibiza town than to San Antonio and any proper Ibiza veteran would describe them as being on the other side both geographically and ideologically. Check a map before you comment. I have ben there about 100 times so know the island very very well.

In reply to Wietse Pottjewijd. That’s what I thought. Also Amnesia and Ku (now Privelege) are not on the other side of Ibiza from San Antonio!?

In reply to chris sullivan. as I say "DJs such as Mike Pickering in Manchester, Graeme Park in Nottingham, Derby-born Hector Heathcote at the Wag Club (who played Your Love, the first house record I ever heard, in ‘85 after a record buying trip to Chicago), and brothers Noel and Maurice Watson, sensing that it was time for a change, were mixing more and more house music into their sets." they get the first credit in the article. In part 2 I quote both Mike and Graeme and say it was growing all over the country. its not nonsense what you say as there were a few DJs up North playing it but there were many here as well.
