Before podcasts, before social media, and before everyone had a camera in their pocket, Ibiza’s club culture was documented by a small group of presenters, hosts, and storytellers working quietly behind the scenes. In this episode on Dexter Jones, I sit down with Katie Knight, one of the most influential yet often overlooked voices in dance music media, to explore how Ibiza’s club history was captured during its most important years. KATIE KNIGHT PODCAST : Put Me On The Guest List KIRK FIELD BOOK AVAILABLE HERE: kirkfield.net From her early days at Amnesia to hosting interviews for Amnesia TV, Boiler Room, Ibiza Global Radio, International Music Summit, and live broadcasts for Amazon Music, Katie has spent over a decade documenting the artists, venues, and moments that shaped Ibiza and the global electronic music scene.   This conversation pulls back the curtain on the media side of dance music. We discuss what it was really like working inside Ibiza’s clubs during the 2010s, being thrown into high-pressure interviews with artists like Carl Cox, Marco Carola, and Steve Aoki with little or no preparation, and why presenters and hosts play a critical role in preserving dance music history.   We also dive into career advice for aspiring presenters and podcasters, the importance of strong communication skills and public speaking, the realities of live broadcasting, radio versus filmed interviews, language and cultural fluency in Ibiza, online abuse in the modern era, and why nostalgia-driven storytelling resonates more than ever.   This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in Ibiza club culture, dance music history, podcasting, broadcasting, or building a career as a presenter or host in the music industry.  

In 2018, a team from Last Night A DJ Saved My Life made dance music history. @nightmaresonwaxofficial  and the LNADJ crew climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and performed what was then the highest-altitude DJ set ever recorded - a world record at the time - all to raise money for children in need. The challenge raised tens of thousands of pounds, funded a new housing unit for a special-needs children’s home in Tanzania, and has now been turned into a full two-hour documentary titled “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”. In this episode, I sit down with Neil Kemp, the LNADJ filmmaker, who climbed alongside the team, carried the cameras up the mountain, battled 10 per cent oxygen, bitter cold, and exhaustion, and eventually brought this record-breaking moment to life on screen. We talk: • How the 2018 record happened• The technical nightmare of DJing at altitude• The emotional moments on the trek• How the charity created real, lasting change• Turning a lost project into a feature-length film• The next challenge: the world’s highest full-moon party in Nepal The record has since been surpassed by others — but the story, the purpose, and the impact of this climb remain unmatched. A massive shout to  @LastNightADJSavedMyLife  for everything they do.

Welcome to another episode of the Dexter Jones Podcast. Today I sit down with one of the most creative characters to ever work in Ibiza nightlife, the legend that is Lisa Good.   If you lived, worked or partied in Ibiza during the 90s or early 2000s, you already know her name. If you did not, you are about to hear the real insider story of the island’s most outrageous party era.   This episode dives deep into why Manumission is still considered by many to be the greatest party in history. Lisa Good takes us right back into the heart of Ibiza’s golden years. From the raw creativity of the Manumission entertainers to the madness inside Privilege, Space and the old San Antonio West End, Lisa gives the most honest, vivid and nostalgic account you will hear anywhere online.   In this interview we talk about Lisa’s journey from being bullied as a teenager to finding escapism in rave culture, Spiral Tribe festivals, Club UK and eventually booking a teletext ticket to Ibiza in 1994. She tells the story of arriving alone, meeting the West End family and accidentally getting pulled into the world of Manumission after walking in with vegetables, potatoes and fully spray painted costumes.   Only in Ibiza. Lisa shares never-before-heard stories about the entertainers, the backstage madness, the rubber chicken, the Manumission dressing rooms, the catacombs, the Coco Loco tree, Dennis Rodman, the shows that changed club history, the chaos at Space Tuesday carry on, the end of the West End era, Ibiza Uncovered, and the friendships that lasted a lifetime.   We also talk about the cultural shift from pre-social media Ibiza to the modern VIP world. If you ever worked in Ibiza, lived through San Antonio in the mid-90s, missed the West End bar scene, or partied at Privilege when Manumission ruled the island, this episode is pure nostalgia.   If you are curious about Ibiza history or the origins of European club culture, you are going to love this conversation. Lisa’s humour, storytelling and honesty capture exactly why Ibiza was such a life-changing place.   The escapism, the characters, the freedom, the sense of belonging and the wild creative energy that can never be repeated again.   This is one of the most detailed interviews ever recorded about the creativity of Manumission.
